[00:45.06]Read their letters
[00:46.42]and match them to Auntie Wang's answers on the next page.
[00:49.76]1.Dear Auntied Wang:
[00:52.40]My friend studies too hard.
[00:54.44]His homework is always completed on time
[00:57.00]but he never has any time for fun.
[00:59.27]Also,he is always tired.
[01:01.62]I like him very much
[01:03.37]and I am worried
[01:04.63]because he has fewer and fewer friends.
[01:07.19]What should I do?
[01:08.65]2.Dear Auntie Wang:
[01:12.20]I was told by my parents
[01:13.87]that I must go to university.
[01:15.91]I don't want to go to university!
[01:17.95]I would rather be a farmer like my uncle.
[01:20.51]Do I have a choice or
[01:21.97]must I do as my parents say?
[01:24.32]3.Dear Auntie Wang:
[01:27.48]I don't like it when I am compared to my classmates.
[01:30.44]My parents and my teachers often do this.
[01:33.49]They say things like,
[01:35.03]'You should try to be more like her'
[01:37.18]or 'wouldn't you like to be as clever as him?'
[01:40.05]They never say anything good about me.
[01:42.19]Don't they know that I'm good at some things,too?
[01:44.75]4.Dear Auntie Wang,
[01:48.54]I have always wanted a pet cat
[01:50.68]but I have never been allowed to have one.
[01:52.72]My parents think that our home is too small
[01:55.57]and that keeping a cat is too much trouble.
[01:58.02]Can I do anything to change their minds?
[02:00.48]5.Dear Auntie Wang,
[02:04.45]I know that it's not good to tell a lie
[02:06.90]but I saw my best friend take someone's bicycle last week.
[02:10.35]It had been left outside his house.
[02:12.70]He was seen by other people,too.
[02:14.87]Maybe he has been reported to the police!
[02:17.33]What should I say if someone asks me about it?
[02:20.17]a)Dear Reader,
[02:23.33]Your ideas for the future
[02:24.98]should be discussed with your parents.
[02:27.33]If you want,
[02:28.69]you could talk to either your teachers or your uncle,too.
[02:31.88]Also,you ought to find out more about
[02:34.72]the skills you will need to be a farmer.
[02:37.00]Some of these skills might be learned at university.
[02:40.05]b)Dear Reader,
[02:43.11]You are right.
[02:44.36]It is never good to tell a lie.
[02:46.64]The bicycle must be returned.
[02:48.88]Tell your friend that you will not lie for her or him.
[02:52.15]Your bicycle might be taken next!
[02:54.50]c)Dear Reader,
[02:57.84]At home,you should do as you are told.
[03:00.19]You have been told 'no'.
[03:02.05]You ought not to ask again.
[03:03.90]Why much you have a cat?
[03:05.65]A cat shouldn't be left alone all day.
[03:08.21]Have you thought about asking your parents
[03:10.25]for either a pet bird or a pet mouse?
[03:12.91]d)Dear Reader,
[03:16.86]Your friend may be a good student,
[03:19.21]but he may also be rather unhealthy.
[03:21.77]A healthy body is important for a happy mind.
[03:24.72]You ought to invite your friend to go with you on long walks.
[03:27.88]Your homework can be discussed while you walk.
[03:30.65]e)Dear Reader,
[03:33.50]Try not to mind too much when you are compared to others.
[03:36.84]Think about why your parents do this.
[03:39.30]Your parents love you very much.
[03:41.65]Why not tell them more about yourself
[03:43.69]and the things you do well?

[03:56.20]and then listen to Xu Li
[03:58.05]talking to Auntie Wang on the radio.
[04:00.33]Say if the sentences are true (T) or false (F).
[04:03.38]Xu Li:Welcome to the programme.
[04:05.05]Today,Auntie Wang is here with us to answer your questions.
[04:08.71]Your first questions is about blind people.
[04:11.95]One listener has been told that blind people
[04:14.82]can hear better than other people.
[04:16.97]Auntie Wang,is this true?
[04:20.13]Good listening skills are very useful for blind people,
[04:23.39]but they don't hear better than other people.
[04:25.64]They just try to understand more.
[04:27.68]Xu Li:What about deaf people?
[04:29.43]It's been said that deaf people can do most things
[04:32.59]more easily than blind people.
[04:34.73]Deaf people can do most things without any help.
[04:37.68]However,blind people often need help
[04:40.63]when they go to new places
[04:42.10]or do new things.
[04:43.77]Xu Li:OK.The next question is about old people.
[04:47.32]One listener's grandmother has been told
[04:49.78]that she should dance and play sports.
[04:52.34]Shouldn't old people be quiet
[04:54.19]and not do too many things?
[04:56.46]Wang:Oh no!No one thinks that now!
[04:59.52]Everyone needs exercise.
[05:01.56]The listener's grandmother should dance if she wants to.
[05:04.82]She will be healthier and happier if she does.
[05:08.06]Xu Li:The last question is about languages.
[05:10.52]it easier for older people
[05:12.79]or younger peopler
[05:14.25]to learn new languages?
[05:16.29]Wang:It's been proved that new languages
[05:20.26]are learned more easily by children.
[05:22.51]It's more difficult
[05:24.36]for older people to learn languages.
[05:26.92]Xu Li:Thank you Auntie Wang for coming today.
[05:29.38]I'm sure all our listeners have learned a great deal.
[05:32.54]Wang:It was a pleasure.
[05:33.79]Thank you for inviting me,Xu Li.

[07:41.30]Finally,it was time to go home.

[08:43.60]Carrie and Eileen are best friends.
[08:47.05]They are both old women with children and grandchildren,
[08:50.29]but they have been best friends
[08:52.43]since they were twelve years old.
[08:54.28]That was seventy years ago.
[08:56.32]They met at a village school
[08:58.67]after their families had moved to Canada to work as farmers.
[09:02.33]When they were children,

[09:09.04]They both loved climbing tall trees.
[09:12.52]They both loved swimming in the summer
[09:14.97]and playing in the snow in the winter.
[09:17.71]When they were older and married,
[09:20.07]they wrote letters to each other.
[09:22.52]When telephones became common,
[09:25.39]they often phoned each other.
[09:27.85]Later their husbands became friends,
[09:31.22]then their children.
[09:33.57]Now their grandchildren are friends.
[09:36.13]As best friends,
[09:38.59]Carrie and Eileen have helped each other with their problems.
[09:42.35]They have given each other advice
[09:44.70]and shared many happy moments.
[09:47.65]They have taken an interest in each other's hobbies.
[09:51.31]When one became interested in cooking or music,
[09:54.83]the other one became interested,too.

[10:00.03]they have listened to each other |
