3．Dear Daniel,
　　I'm a helpless mother. My son Henry is 15 years old. I find that the older he grows, the less we talk. I feel very sad and I really need help. My first problem is about his hobbies. He spends almost all his spare time on computer games. When he gets home, he always turns on the computer and closes the door. I'm getting worried about him, especially when his English teacher tells me he always gets low marks in the English exams. Second, he likes new technology, but I don't have enough money and I can't afford all the things he wants. Recently, I've found that he is always alone. I've never seen him talking to his friends on the phone or going out with anyone on weekends. That is the last problem I have.
　　What should I do to help him?Please give me some advice.

4．　　"I don't like my parents. They always tell me I should do this, and should not do that. It sometimes makes me angry," said Wang Li, a middle school student in Guangzhou. Do you have the same problem?Perhaps your parents had the same problem when they were your age long ago. Why does it seem that some parents are not so friendly in their children's eyes?
　　One of the most important reasons is when some one becomes a parent, he/she likes worrying things. They worry about everything about you, from the time you were born. They do a lot for you, though something would make you angry, because they care about you and worry about you. They worry about your choice of friends, the food you eat, your work at school, how much sleep you get and so on. All these things are part of your life. They want you to grow up healthily and happily.
　　So how can you make things easier on yourself? It's easier than you think. Just make sure your parents know what you're doing. Get them to know your friends. Phone them if you get home later than usual. Say sorry to them when you make mistakes. Talk about your ideas with them. They may talk about theirs with you.
　　Most of all, try to think about why your parents do this or do that. They are still practicing being parents and need help you can give them. When you become a parent, they may be able to help you know how to get on with your children.

6．　　It was a cold snowy morning after the winter vacation. And it was my (1)      at my new school. I was walking alone slowly and worrying (2)      lots of things. It was early and there (3)      many people on the road. Suddenly a girl who was (4)      a bike on ice fell down. She was trying hard to get up but fell again. (5)      thinking, I went over and helped her. She said "thank you" with a smile and then rode away. Her words warmed me a lot.
　　Finally, I got to school. The teacher led me to the classroom and introduced me to the class. Then he asked me (6)      sit down beside a girl. I felt (7)      nervous that I didn't dare to look at her. Soon the first class started. Their textbooks were different from (8)      in my old school. As I was wondering (9)      to do, an English book appeared in front of me. "Let's share," the girl beside me said. "Hi, I'm Carrie." I looked up. (10)      was the girl I helped this morning. Later on, we became good friends.
　　From that I learned: to help others is actually to help ourselves!

7．　　Fifteen years ago, I drove a taxi for a living. One day I went to pick up a passenger at 2:40 a. m. .When I arrived there, I walked to the door and knocked. "Just a minute," answered a weak, elderly voice.
　　After a while, the door opened. A small woman stood before me. She was more than eighty years old. By her side was a big bag. When we got into the taxi, she gave me an address and then asked, "Could you drive through downtown?"
　　"It's not the shortest way," I answered quickly.
　　"Oh, I'm in no hurry," she said.
　　"I'm on my way to a hospice (临终关怀医院). I don't have any family left. The doctor says I don't have very long."
　　I quietly reached over and shut off the meter (计程表). For the next two hours, I drove through the city. She showed me the building where she had once worked, the neighborhood where she had lived, and the place where she had gone dancing as a girl.
　　Sometimes she'd ask me to slow down in front of a special building and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
　　We drove in silence to the address she had given me.
　　"How much do I pay you?" she asked.
　　"Nothing," I said.
　　"You have to make a living," she answered.
　　"Oh, there are other passengers," I answered.
　　Almost without thinking, I gave her a hug. She held on me and said, "You gave an old woman a moment of joy. "
