Boys and girls, let’s begin our English class now. This time I want to talk about my family. Then I want you to say something about your families.

There are seven people in my family. They are my parents, my two sisters, my brother, his wife (妻子)and I. In England, a family like this is a big one. My father has a factory（工厂）. It isn’t very big. It makes all kinds of boats. My brother is a doctor. He works in a hospital(医院). His wife works in a hospital, too. She is a nurse. My two sisters are students. One wants to be a teacher. She studies hard and well. The other likes singing very much and can sing very well. So she wants to be a singer(歌手). I’m now in China teaching English and learning Chinese. My mother stays at home. Can you guess (猜测)what she does at home? Yes, she does housework. She is a housewife.

Now throwing shoes at somebody is a favorite game on the Internet. Sometimes you should throw your shoes. Here is an example.
After leaving his office at the center of city, a young man bought a new car and drove it from the city to his home.
He was very happy and the car ran very fast. Suddenly, a shoe hit the car in the door. The man got very angry. He jumped out of car and caught a boy who still had a shoe in his hand.
“Who are you? Why do you that?” the angry man shouted at the boy.
“I’m sorry… But I don’t know what else to do. My sister has been hurt. I cry for help but nobody stops,” the boy says.
The man looked around and saw a girl by the road. ___22____.
“She is my sister. She wants to cross the road but falls out of her wheelchair. She is too heavy for me. I can’t get her back into the wheelchair.” The man was moved. He helped the bleeding girl back into her wheelchair. “Thank you. You are so kind.” says the little boy.
Life speaks to our heart. Sometimes we don’t have time to listen and he will throw a shoe at us.
【小题1】The young man drove his new car _______.

Dear Dr Jackson,
My parents are never happy with me. They are always criticizing my clothes, my hair and the music I listen to. They hate my friends’ looks and they keep complaining when I go with them. I’m not allowed to stay out as late as my friends do, so I can’t have any fun. My parents only seem to care about my school grades. Although I love them, sometimes I feel we live in different worlds. If they love me, can’t they understand me? How can I make them understand me?
Angel
Dear Angel,
Your problem is common to both teenagers and parents. Don’t worry, because all this is natural. You see, your parents have grown up at a different time and they have different experiences. So, they think some things are strange, but you find the same things are all right. For example, the music you like may sound like noise to them. Your parents love you, so they feel they must stop you from doing whatever they find strange. On the other hand, you don’t want to be different from other teenagers, so you feel that your parents restrict you.
I think you should talk about this problem with your parents. Try to explain to them what you want and make them know they can believe you. And then they’ll find you are a responsible person and they will give you more freedom.
Jackson
