Dear Mr Zhu,
I am writing to your magazine’s “Teenagers Now” column(专栏) to ask for some help with my 16-year-old son. At the moment, he refuses to do almost everything his mother and I ask him to do. He is our only child and we treat him very well. His grandparents buy him many things, and yet he is still rude to us. He refuses to spend time with us or do as we tell him. Sometimes he acts as if he doesn’t even love us at all.
Now he refuses to do his homework, and instead insists on wasting his time watching DVDs and listening to foreign music. I cannot understand this music, but I don’t like it. He also spends too much time in Internet cafes, where he either plays games or chats online. He is wasting valuable time during this important period in his life!
What am I to do? At present, to prevent making his mother unhappy with an argument, I am allowing him his freedom. However, I am worried that if I keep allowing him to do what he wants, he may fail at school, or worse.
How can I help my son without harming our relationship?
Yours
Liu Zhenhua

【小题1】推理判断题。根据开头部分I am writing to your magazine’s “Teenagers Now” column(专栏) to ask for some help with my 16-year-old son. 可知作者的写信目的是向杂志的某个专栏的工作人员请教孩子的教育问题，结合选项可知朱先生是杂志的栏目编辑；故选B。

Jay Kohl, an American student, posted an online advertisement two weeks ago searching for a Chinese family to stay with so that he can learn the language and culture.
“I’m a clean, non-smoking, and warm-hearted American man looking for a homestay in the Wudaokou area to improve my Chinese language skills,” he wrote. “I’m willing to offer help with English tutoring(家教) and even can help you with applying to foreign universities.”
He still hasn’t found a suitable home.
“Most of the families that contacted me seem to be interested in doing business instead of cultural exchange,” he said. “I think I might have to rent an apartment in the end.”
Kohl isn’t the only foreigner finding it difficult to find a homestay in Beijing. Michael Benson, who wants to come to Beijing in September, has also faced the same problems.
Why is finding a homestay family so difficult? Beijing Today consulted a Chinese teacher, Jessie Xi, who has been teaching foreign students at the University of International Business and Economics for more than six years.
Xi has accepted many homestays, and from her own experience and what she’s been told, she said there were four major problems visitors may meet when applying for homestays.
Problem 1: Having too high expectation for language improvement.
Problem 2: Considering oneself as a guest instead of a family member.
Problem 3: Not making clear what a family’s rules are beforehand.
Problem 4: Overly(过分) high demands for the living environment.

| A．hoped to learn Chinese language and culture further |
| B．wanted to do a research on the Chinese daily life |
| C．would like to make friends with Chinese families |
| D．was interested in Chinese food |
| A．can’t be an English tutor in home stays |
| B．can’t help apply to foreign universities |
| C．might expect too much for language improvement |
| D．might refuse to do housework in home stays |
| A．English tutoring | B．cultural exchange |
| C．foreign universities | D．making money |
| A．Foreign visitors can do something helpful for their homestays. |
| B．Foreign visitors usually have problems with their homestays. |
| C．Foreign visitors should know clearly about the rules of their homestays. |
| D．Foreign visitors should consider themselves as the members of their homestays. |
| A．gave advice to | B．discussed ideas with |
| C．wanted information from | D．raised questions for |
