I fell in love with music from a young age and often sat down making a few songs of my own．What would life be like, I wondered, without a beautiful song? In 1992, I made two love songs to my darling wife and watched tears run down her face as I sang．"Sam," she said earnestly, "Your songs should be heard by more people."

She got my ballads and started bothering various media people about me, her singing barber husband．Two radio stations took an interest and played the songs．After the programme was aired, I became known in our community as the Singing Barber．

The biggest surprise, however, was still to come．I received a call from a music promoter who offered me a long-term recording contract．He explained that he would be investing a lot of money to market my songs．I needed to be wholly focused on selling my records all over Australia．

But I hesitated．

My friends all told me to go for it．And Mary also thought I should do．"Go, Sam．I'll manage with the family．．．it'll be OK．"

I watched my daughter and son playing in the backyard．Soon they would both be in high school．．．and where would I be? I was so used to my family turning to me for love and support．If I were to start a singing career, I would not only miss them terribly, I'd also certainly miss out on watching them grow up．Signing this contract would put a huge gap between my family and me．．．and I couldn't bear it．My family was my life．So I refused the music promoter's offer．I'm still making music, I'm rich in love and I have no regrets．

1.When the author was offered the contract, most of his friends _____．

A．envied him   B．laughed at him       C．encouraged him  D．didn't believe him

2.Why did the author give up the contract?

A．Because his wife was strongly against it．

B．Because the pay was not attractive enough．

C．Because he wanted to care about his two kids．

D．Because he didn't want his family life damaged．

3.According to the passage, we can infer the author _____．

A．used to be a country singer

B．preferred his present life

C．went on the road to fame

D．regretted giving up his contract

4.What does the author mainly intend to tell us?

A．One should know himself．

B．Interest is the best teacher．

C．Family should come first．

D．Every dog has its day．

Dear Michelle,

My mother is not a good example for me and my sister. She smokes, stays out late, and she curses(骂人).I love her but I am ashamed of her.I do not want to bring my friends home because she does not act like any of the other mothers. She says I am a loser because I sit at home and study. I wish I could live in another family that was normal,but it will be 5 years before I am 18 and legal. What am I supposed to do until then?

Prisoner of a Crazy House

Dear 7^th Grader,

I am glad that you love your mother because the rest of your feeings about her may change as you get older and mature(成熟).

While it is true that your mother’s smoking, partying and cursing bring you shame, the fact that you want to stay separate from her doings is notable and very smart. It shows that you are a winner,not a loser.

I am guessing, therefore, that you do not bring shame to yourself, and that is a good thing, So,keep it that way and keep away from your mother’s habits.

At the same time,try to get the best grades and join clubs and school activities. Offer social service on weekends and visit your friends at their homes.

Unfortunately, you are not alone.Many teens live in homes with immature,misguided, selfish parents. Those kids often feel lonely and separate from the rest of their friends because of their parents’ terrible deeds.

But they develop good friendships with nice kids, do well in school,and often find a teacher or guidance advisor who makes all the difference!

Do it, Miss Winning 13 years old, and keep looking forward to your own fine future.Maybe by then your mother may even see the light and realize how surprising you really are.

Best luck!

Michelle
