“Depend on yourself”is what nature sayes to help yourself.
There have been many great men in history.But many of them were very poor in childhood,and had no uncles,aunts or friends to help them.They could not depend upon them.Schools were few and very good.They could not depend upon them for an education.They saw how it was,and set to work with all their own way up to fame.
One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils,”I cannot make worthy men of you,but I can help you make men of yourselves.”
Some young men have ambitions(雄心)to excel(拔尖)in anything;and they are to be pitied.They can never accomplish much unless they see their weak points and change their course.They are nothing now,and will be nothing as long as they live,unless they accept the advice of their parents and teachers,and depend on their honest efforts.

Dear Abby,
This is my first letter to you,although I have been reading your column for many years.I need an outside opinion.
I am a grandmother in my 70s and have just returned from visiting my daughter,her hudband and their three dearly loved children—all under the age of 5—and I’m upset with some of their parenting ways.
For example:They lock the doors to their children’s bedrooms at night because “the children might get out of their beds and wander around the house,and we may not hear them.”If one child gets punished,all three are punished,and if one child says a “naughty”word,all three are given hot sauce in the mouth.
I know these parents love their children very much,but are these ways of disciplining them wise?Please understand,it is not my aim to interfere(干涉).
Gram
Dear Gram,
Children’s bedroom door should not be locked.Should a flash fire break out,it would be a nightmare.
Punishing all the children when only one has earned the punishment is a good way to make them grow up to hate each other.
Children who use “naughty”words should not be punished with hot sauce in the mouth.They should be taught the proper and acceptable words to use instead of the “naughty”words.

"Where are your bananas?" It seemed like a logical question to ask.For all of my forty trips around the store,bananas were a key item to place in the grocery cart.For the first time I could recall,the banana bin was empty.So I asked a store worker where the bananas were.
"We don't have any,"he replied."We'll be getting some in tomorrow."
It took me a few moments to absorb this information."What do you mean you don't have any?"I thought ."Every store have bananas."True,sometimes they are almost green enough to pass forbent cucumbers(黄瓜).And they occasionally appear to have lost an armwrestling match with a watermelon.But there are always bananas of some sort in the store.
Then it dawned on me just how foolish my expectations were.I live well north of New York City.Even if somebody invented a way to cultivate them in the Great White North,it was early April,and they would not bear fruit at that time of year.For goodness sake,outside the snow was falling and inside I was expecting tropical bananas!
52.The author wants to ________.
A.buy some bananas.
B.ask a logical question.

Dear Andrew:
I’m glad to hear about you are coming to China soon.In my opinion,both air travel and train travlel have advantages and disadvantages.
Travelling by air can save time.For example,if you fly from Qingdao to Guangzhou,it takes only two hours.If you take the train,you will get to Guangzhou in 23hours.Also,air travel is more comfortable.The train is usually crowded and you have to sit on your seat for a long time .You will get tired after the long travel.On the other hand train travel also has its advantages.First,it costs only 550 yuan while traveling by air costs 1200 yuan.Besides,you can enjoy the beautiful views outside the window along the way.
Which would you prefer? I’m afraid you have to make your own choice.If you need more information,don’t hesitate to let me know.
Have a nice journey!
Yours
Lihua
