Ellen Parker was worried about her health. She could not walk very quickly and it was difficult for her to climb stars. She was soon out of breath (气喘吁吁).

“I suppose I had better go to the doctor,” she thought.

She went to the doctor and told him her problem.

“I’m not surprised at all,” he said. “It’s obvious what your problem is.”

He looked her over then gave her some advice.

“If you don’t do what I say, Mrs. Parker,” he said, “you will have a heart attack. It could kill you.”

Ellen Parker was very worried as she left the doctor’s. She knew that she had to take his advice but it would not be easy and it would take time.

The next day she went shopping. The first shop she went into was a butcher’s shop (肉铺).

“I’d like ten pounds of steak (牛排), please,” she said.

“Certainly, madam,” the butcher replied and went into the cold room and found a large piece of steak. He brought the huge piece of meat back into the shop and put it on the scale (天平).

“That’s just under ten pounds,” he said.

“That big enough,” Mrs. Parker said.

The butcher worked out the price.

“At $4.99 a pound that will be $49.50, please. Would you like me to cut it up into smaller pieces for you?”

“Oh, I don’t want to buy the meat,” Mrs. Parker said.

“If you don’t want to buy it,” the butcher replied angrily, “why did you ask me to get it for you?”

“My doctor told me that I am over-weight and I have to lose ten pounds. I wanted to see what ten pounds of meat looked like.”

1.Why did Ellen Parker visit the doctor?

 A. She had had a heart attack.

    What does it mean when parents fight?   
    It's hard for most people to hear their parents shouting at each other. You might worry more about one parent
or the other during an argument. Or maybe you worry that one parent could become angry enough to lose
control. It's understandable to feel this way when there's fighting around you.   
    If your parents are arguing about you, you might mistakenly think the argument is your fault (错误). But your
parents' arguments are never your fault.   
    If your parents' fighting really troubles you, you might find it hard to sleep or go to school. If things are going
like this, try talking to one or both of your parents about what they are doing. They may not even realize how
bad you feel until you tell them how their arguments affect (影响) you.   
    If the fighting goes too far, let someone else know what's going on. Talking to other relatives or a teacher
about the fighting can be helpful. Sometimes parents who fight can go so far that they hurt each other or other
family members. If this happens, letting someone else know will allow the family to be helped and protected
from such harmful fighting.   
    Family members can learn to listen to each other and talk about feelings and differences without shouting at
each other. They can get help from others with the problem of fighting. Though it may take some work, time,
and practice, people in families can always learn to get along better.   
    If your family argues from time to time, try not to worry too much: No family is perfect. Even in the happiest
home, problems come up and people argue. Usually the family members get what's troubling them out in the
open and talk about it. Hopefully, they can reach some agreement. Everyone feels better and life is OK again.   
    Being part of a family means everyone tries to make life better for each other. Arguments happen and that's
OK. But with love, understanding, and some work, families can solve almost any problem.
1. When parents are arguing about us, we'd better _______.
[     ]
A. worry about our mother   
B. not become angry enough to lose control   
C. try to find out our mistakes

2. If your parents fight, you _______.
[     ]
A. shout at them    
B. go to school    
C. talk to them    
D. go to sleep
3. Which is not true according to the passage?
[     ]
A. People argue even in the happiest families.   
B. It's OK for parents to argue from time to time.   
C. People reach some agreement after fighting.   
D. Love and understanding can prevent parents' fighting.
