Dear Annie,

I know how you feel. Please don't worry. Many students have the problems you have.

You think your parents are too strict with you. Sometimes you may feel unhappy, but it seems that they just want to protect(保护) you. First, you can't go out on school nights but have to stay at home doing the homework. I also think middle school students should stay at home on school nights. Your parents want you to study hard. Second, your parents ask you to do the dishes after dinner every day. I think it is OK. Everyone in a family should help with the housework. But if sometimes you are too tired or have too much homework, you can tell them. Last, you said you liked playing badminton very much, but your parents didn't allow(允许) you to have fun doing that with your friends on weekends. I don't think that is right. You need to relax yourself! Why don't you talk with your parents? Tell them your feelings. And you can also ask your teacher to talk to them.

I'm sure things will be better from now on. Good luck!

Yours,

Dr. Know

One day when Picasso was walking along a road, a woman passed by and saw him. She ran to Picasso for a painting as a gift. Picasso smiled and said {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(polite), "I'm sorry, Madam. I have nothing to paint. I am {#blank#}2{#/blank#}/ˈempti/ handed here. I may make you a painting some other time."

However, the woman didn't give up. She {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(keep) on, "Please, I am a big fan of you and I want to meet you for years." Hearing this, Picasso was moved and then took out a small {#blank#}4{#/blank#} of paper and a pen, and began to draw something. Within 10 seconds, Picasso finished {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(draw) and handed it to the woman, "Take this! It's a million-dollar painting."

But the woman thought Picasso was just playing a joke on her. How could it be {#blank#}6{#/blank#}/wɜːθ/ a million dollars just in 10 seconds? So she went to the market and was {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(surprise) to learn that it was true.

When meeting Picasso again, she wished she could be his student. She said, "Please teach me so that I can do the same thing {#blank#}8{#/blank#} such a short time."

Picasso smiled and said, "Dear, the drawing I made was not in 10 seconds {#blank#}9{#/blank#} my thirty-year efforts towards the arts!" The woman was speechless.

We fix our eyes on others' {#blank#}10{#/blank#}/səkˈses/ more often than the hard work and patience behind it. If we want to reach it, we need experience and struggle(奋斗).
