I'm writing because I've understood you've struggled with alcoholism (酗酒).I've been fighting mine ever since I went through 9-11.After that, I've been more or less useless professionally - I'm a lawyer - and have had to resien( 辭職) from my job because I was discovered passed - out drunk in front of my computer.I've taken some medicine and it has helped somewhat.I can manage about a month without drinking, but after that I end up having a crazy stage where nothing matters except drinking.After a week or so of heavy drinking,! start having nightmares of people jumping.After that, it's a week of not being able to get out of bed.
I was supposed to travel to a conference but didn't make it because I got so drunk at the airport that I fell down on my face and spent the rest of the day in the emergency room.I have been hiding from my family since then.Fortunately they won't be expecting me to come back for a week or so.Otherwise, they would notice the bump on my forehead and two black eyes.
I don't really know what I'm asking you.Cary, I need a way out that doesn't involve causing pain to my family.I'm taking medicine, but' I still have these attacks every few months.If there's alcohol in the house, I can't stay away from it.It seems that this will never end.I'm afraid of what will happen if something bad happens, like a family member dying, or getting fired again.
Thanks for reading.
Yours T

Once upon a time in a land far away, there was a wonderful old man who loved everything:animals, spiders, insects.
One day while walking through the woods, the nice old man found a cocoon(繭)of a butterfly.He took it home.A few days later, a small opening appeared; he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole.Then it seemed to stop making any progress.It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no farther.Then the man decided to help the butterfly, so he took a pair of scissors and cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon.
The butterfly then appeared easily.
But it had a swollen body and small, fragile wings.The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, which would be smaller in time.Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling (慢慢爬行)around with a swollen body and fragile wings.
It never was able to fly.
What the man in his kindness and hurry did not understand was that the limited cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were Nature's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life.If we were allowed to go through our life without any obstacles and difficulties, it would disable us.We would not be as strong as what we could have been.And we could never fly.
1.The butterfly could never fly because _______________.
A.it was too fat and strong.
B.it loved crawling around.
C.it got out of the cocoon easily.
D.it didn’t get through the cocoon.
2.The text is most likely to be found in a book about_______________.
A.popular science B.humorous stories.
C.successful people D.philosophy events
3.What is the implied meaning of the passage?
A.Life without any obstacles and difficulties is perfect.
B.Obstacles and difficulties contribute to success.
C.Never help a butterfly to get out of the cocoon.
D.A butterfly can never fly without going through the cocoon

What makes a gift special? Is it the price you see on the gift receipt? Or is it the look on the recipient's face when they receive it that determines the true value? What gift is worth the most?
This Christmas I was debating what to give my father. My dad is a hard person to buy for because he never wants anything. I pulled out my phone to read a text message from my mom saying that we were leaving for Christmas shopping for him when I came across a message on my phone that I had locked. The message was from my father. My eyes fell on a photo of a flower taken in Wyoming. and underneath a poem by William Blake. The flower, a lonely dandelion(蒲公英) standing against the bright blue sky, inspired me. My dad had been reciting those words to me since I was a kid. That may even be the reason why I love writing. I decided that those words would be my gift to my father.
I called back. I told my mom to go without me and that I already created my gift. I sent the photo of the cream-colored flower to my computer and typed the poem on top of it. As I was arranging the details another poem came to mind. The poem was written by Edgar Allan Poe; my dad recited it as much as he did the other. I typed that out as well and searched online for a background to the words of it. The poem was focused around dreaming, and after searching I found the perfect picture. The image was painted with blues and greens and purples, twisting together to create the theme and wonder of a dream. As I watched both poems passing through the printer, the white paper coloring with words that shaped my childhood. I felt that this was a gift that my father would truly appreciate.
Christmas soon arrived. The minute I saw the look on my dad's face as he unwrapped those swirling black letters carefully placed in a cheap frame, I knew I had given the perfect gift.
1.The idea for a special gift began to form when the author was____________.
A. doing shopping B. having a debate
C. reading a message D. leaving for Wyoming
2.The author's inspiration for the gift came from____________.
A. a photo of a flower B. a story about a kid
C. a call from the mother D. a text about Christmas
3.The author made the gift by_____.
A. searching for the poems online B. drawing the background by hand
C. painting the letters in three colors D. matching the words with pictures
4.What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To show how to design images for gifts.
B. To suggest making gifts from one's heart.
C. To explain how computers help create gifts.
D. To describe the gifts the author has received

Having one of those days—or weeks—when everything seems to annoy you? Even if you do nothing about it, your bad mood(心情) will probably go away after some time. But with a little effort, you can forget it much faster—often within a day or two.
Walk it off
Exercise is the most popular bad mood buster. A person who's in a bad mood has low energy and high tension. Taking a fast ten-minute walk, or doing some quick exercises can do wonders towards changing the bad mood.
Tune it out
Listening to your favorite music for a while can also make tension go away quickly, because music starts connection with past positive experiences we've had.
Give yourself a pep talk
Stop and listen to what's on your mind. Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts. Write them all down on paper, the pessimistic(悲觀的) messages you've been giving yourself, and then give optimistic answers. (“I still don't have a job.” vs “I have two interviews next week.”)
Reduce your stress
Relaxation techniques are wonderful moodlifters. These include deep breathing, stretching and visualizing(想像), all of which sound complicated(復(fù)雜的) but aren't. One easy way to visualize: close your eyes and picture a favorite place, such as the beach. Another simple way to distress is to make a todo list. One reason for being in a bad mood is feeling you have no options. By taking control over certain areas, you realize you're not helpless. You can make changes in your mood and life.
Avoid things that won't improve your mood
TV may not help much: you need to increase your energy level and stimulate(刺激) your mind—something that the TV show “Neighbors” won't do. And before you reach for that piece of cake and coffee, think about how mood and food are linked. Sugar and caffeine contribute to depressed moods. The better choice? Research shows that carbohydrates, such as potatoes and pasta(面食), produce calming effects in people who have a desire for them.
1.Which of the following may help us stop a bad mood?
A. Doing nothing about it B. Exercising and enjoying music.
C.Writing down negative thoughts D.Talking about it with neighbors.
2.Why is it suggested that you close your eyes and picture the beach?
A. It helps remove bad mood. B. It brings us a new technique.
C. It is not complicated to do so. D. It is an area to be easily controlled.
3.TV may not improve your mood because it _____________.
A. shows what happens around you B. does not energize you
C. reminds you of eating and drinking D. produces a calming effect
4.Which would be the best title for this passage?
A. Energy Level and Stress B. How to Beat a Bad Mood
C. Bad Mood and Our Life D. How to Control Your Feeling
