17．Dear Abby,
　　I'm a helpless mother. My son Tom 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.
　　A helpless mother

18．　　Have you ever heard something about Tuvalu?It is one of the smallest countries in the world. It is
difficult to find fresh water in the country, so people can't grow plants or vegetables in Tuvalu. People in Tuvalu need to pay much money for fresh vegetables from foreign countries. It is quite a high cost for them.
However, the sea around Tuvalu is cleaner than any other part of the world, because there are not any large factories in the country. This beautiful country and clean sea attract (吸引) a great number of people from foreign countries. For visitors, it is more special than any other place from around the world.
　　Tuvalu will face another problem when the sea level grows too much, because the sea level may
soon become higher than the land of Tuvalu. If that happens, Tuvalu will show up only on old maps in the future. Most of the people in Tuvalu worry about this, but they can't do anything to stop this from happening, and many people are leaving Tuvalu for other countries, What's worse, there is only one senior high school in Tuvalu.             After people move away from Tuvalu, they can't find good﹣paying jobs because they can only grow fruit, catch fish and clean houses. For people still living in Tuvalu, maybe they can look on the bright side and try to do something to stop the sea level growing.

19．　　Almost all cultures celebrate the end of one year and the beginning of another in some way. Different cultures celebrate the beginning of a new year in different ways, and at different times on the calendar.
　　In Western countries, people usually celebrate New Y ear at midnight on December 31st — January
1st. People may go to parties, sometimes dressed in formal (正式的) clothes, and they may drink champagne (香槟) at midnight:During the first minutes of the new year, people cheer and wish each other happiness for the year ahead. But some cultures prefer to celebrate the new year by waking up early to watch the sun rise. They welcome the new wear with the first light of the sunrise.
　　Many cultures also do special things to get rid of (摆脱) bad luck at the beginning of a new year.
For example, in Ecuador, families make a big doll from old clothes. The doll is filled with old newspapers and firecrackers. At midnight, these dolls are burned to show the bad things from the past year are gone and the new year can start afresh (重新). Other common tradition is to keep away bad luck in a new year include throwing things into rivers or the ocean, or saying special things on the first day of the new year.
Other New Year traditions are followed to bring good luck in the new year. One widespread Spanish tradition for good luck is to eat grapes on New Year's Day. The more grapes a person eats, the more good luck the person will have in the year. In France, people eat pancakes for good luck at New Year. In the United States, some people eat black eyed peas for good luck﹣but to get good luck for a whole year you have to eat 365 of them!

36．　　We are living in a colourful world with green trees, red flowers and the blue sky. Everything has its colour. Our moods also have different colours.
　　I am a middle school student. Yesterday, I didn't want to get up early for school, but I was woken up by mum at 6:00 a. m. At that time my mood was like grey fog. I felt tired and sleepy.
　　At noon, I helped a blind man cross the road on my way home. The blind man thanked me a lot. I felt very happy and the mood was like the red sun. It made me warm and sweet.
　　In the maths class, my red mood changed to black, because I failed the exam. When I got the exam paper, I couldn't stop crying. But Mr Li told me to keep on studying hard.
　　After school, I walked home and thought about Mr Li's words. My mood was like the blue sky, sunny and peaceful and I felt comfortable and energetic.
