Dear Bob,
I am a fifteen-year-old student, too, and I read your letter about your 　1　 in Amy’s advice column(栏目). I would like to give you some advice since I know how you feel according to my 　2　 experiences.
The problem you face is common nowadays.　3　, there are some things you can do about it. You said that your parents were very busy with their work 　4　 they couldn’t be with you for a long time. First of all, try to 　5　 why your parents have to work hard. I am sure it is because they try to satisfy the needs of the whole family and not because they don’t love 　6　. It’s a good idea to talk to them about how you feel. Tell them that you miss them and you need them. I strongly 　7　 that they will listen to you and try to make you happy.
In addition, you shouldn’t complain too much. They work hard and I am sure they are under stress, so try to solve the problems all together. One thing you can do is to help your mother with the 　8　. You can do things together with your mother. Besides, she will also have more free time to spend 　9　 you.
In the end, if you show some understanding and also share your 　10　 with them, I am certain they will be willing to work together with you so that you are happy.

A new study shows that workers should take their full vacation time. There are two reasons. First, when workers take breaks, they are less stressed (有压力的) and happier on the job. Second, workers will actually work harder when they come back. The study says that managers should take their full vacation time too. That’s because if workers see their managers at work all the time, they think they are expected to do the same.
Canadians are usually offered two to three weeks of paid vacation (带薪假期) when they start a job. However, one fourth of Canadian workers don’t take their full vacation time because they are afraid of having too much work to do when they get back. And most of them think they will be better workers in their managers’ eyes by ▲ .
In the USA, the situation is even worse. Over a half of working Americans don’t use all of their vacation time. One of the biggest reasons is that they have too much work. It’s surprising that the United States is the only developed country in the world without a law (法规) to make employers (雇主) offer their workers paid vacation. Some other countries, for example, Germany, Australia and Japan, make employers offer their workers at least four weeks of paid vacation.
( )1. According to the new study, it’s ______ for both workers and managers to take full vacation time.
A. bad B. easy
C. helpful D. impossible
( )2. Which of the following can be put in ▲
A. asking for less
B. working at home
C. taking less vacation time

Many people might think that if they had more money, then they would be happier in life. For example, people might look at what others have, like expensive clothes or nice cars, and wish they could have the same. But the things that money can buy cannot bring happiness to a person for long.
　①　 But is that really true Studies have found that money can, in fact, make people happier. 　②　 Instead, it’s giving money to others that makes people happy.　③　 It could be buying a present for a friend or a family member. 　④　 It could be buying a homeless person food to eat. It could be giving money to a person in need. Just think about the last time you used your own money to do something for someone else. How did you feel Whether it is a small or large amount of money, people feel happier when they give. This is because making someone else happy makes the giver happy, too.
This idea of connecting your happiness to the happiness of others is described as ubuntu in an African language. There is even a story about a man visiting Africa who asked some kids to race to a nearby tree. The first child to touch the tree would get a sweet treat. Surprisingly, all the children held hands and ran together. They all touched the tree at the same time. The man asked why they had done this. The children simply said they could only enjoy eating the treat if everyone had one.
