听下面一段独白，回答第 10 至第 12 三个小题。

W: Dear Dad and Mum,

I'm writing to you to say sorry. Last week you argued with each other about my English test. I failed again. You didn't talk to each other. I know you are worrying about my studies. But don't you know I want a warm family? I want both of you. So please get on well with each other, OK?

Dad, you are a man. Mother works in an office. She has a lot to do in the office. After work, she has to do the housework. I think you shouldn't be angry with her. Mum, you should understand Dad. He is a reporter. He has to talk with lots of people. Sometimes he has to work late into the night. He works very hard for our family. He is too tired.

As for my studies, please do not worry. I will work harder. I am sure I will pass the next English test!

Yours,

Jenny

W: Well, why not go to his house?

第三节

听下面一篇短文。用所听到的内容填写表格中所缺单词，每空仅填一词。短文读两遍。

W: Communication is important in our life. To communicate better, here are some tips. First, listen carefully and show interest in others. Ask questions about their hobbies, for example. This makes them happy to talk. Second, choose the right topic. Sports, music, or movies might be good. Third, be honest and sincere. If you don't know about a subject, just say so. Don't pretend to know. Fourth, face-to-face communication helps others understand you better. If you work on these, you'll find having conversations much easier.
