One day Mrs．Smith went shopping．Since she came back

1．________

home, she said to her husband, “I saw beautiful dress in

2．________

a shop this morning．It costs fifty pounds．” “Fifty pounds to

3．________

a cotton dress? That is very much!” But every evening Mrs．

4．________

Smith spoke only the dress, and at last, after a week,

5．________

her husband said, “Oh, buy the dress!” She was very happy．

6．________

But the next day evening, when Mr．Smith returned home and

7．________

asking, “Have you got the dress?”, she said, “No．” “Why not?”

8．________

he said．“Well, it is still in the window of the shop in a week．

9．________

I think, nobody else want this dress, so I don’t want it either!”

Dear Tracy,

Although I’m 16 years old, but my father still treats

1．________

me as a careless children．He doesn’t value my opinions．

2．________

He is very strict with me and often punishes me about

3．________

leaving things lying around in the house while he did this

4．________

all time．I think he fails to set an example to me to

5．________

follow．But he often says, “Doing as I say, not as I do．”

6．________

Even worse, he points out my past mistakes to guests,

7．________

making me feel hurting．I love my father, but I can’t

8．________

bear what he does．I have been tried many times

9．________

to talk with he but he never listens．Please, help me．
