Dear Sir,

I have to travel every day from Souk Road to the airport. Two buses travel along the line: the number 49 and number 16. But by the time the number 16 bus gets to Souk Road, it is always full, so I can’t get on it. I have to wait for the number 49, because sometimes there are empty seats on it.

The timetable says that there are buses from Souk Road to the airport every ten minutes. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus every day?

The regulations（规章）say that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting. Why do the half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?

The regulations say that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers（乘客）and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport. I counted（数）the other passengers as they got off. There were 129 of them.

It is clear that our bus companies break the regulations and think little of their passengers. Can nothing be done to make your service（服务）better?

Yours,

Tom

Dear Dreamerseries,

My mom always keeps asking me, “What’s going on?” If I want to go to a concert, she asks who I will go with. I think that’s my own business. Sometimes it looks like she doesn’t trust me. It makes me very sad. How can I get her to stop?

Wu Hang

Dear Wu Hang,

Many teenagers have the same problems as you. If you don’t talk much with your parents, they might feel they need to ask you questions to know about your life. It seems that your mom is getting into your business, but I think her purpose（目的）is just trying to keep a close relationship(关系) with you. In fact, some experts often tell parents to stay close to their kids by asking them about what’s going on in their life.

Some parents do this better than others, of course. But, unfortunately, some parents ask questions because they don’t trust their kids. So start by trying to trust your mom. She is probably just trying to stay close to you because she loves and cares about you. You can have a talk with her about it.

Of course, that doesn’t make the questions less boring. If you’re tired of so many questions, tell your m om about your day before she asks. If you offer more information, conversations with your mom won’t seem like she’s just asking you too many questions!

If you do this, I’m sure you can get on well with your mom.

Dr Dreamerseries

88. How does Wu Hang feel about his mother’s words?

89.What’s the purpose of Wu’s mother?

90. In which column(栏目) can we find this passage in a magazine?

A. Humans and Nature.

B. Problems and Advice.

C. Sports and Health

D. TVs and films

Dear Martin,

I don’t think you’re right. Students should pay attention to their study. Mobile phones are not always necessary. They’re not like books and pens. You should understand your parents and do what they ask you to.

Now public phones b ooths can be found everywhere. If you have to make a phone call, you may use them. You’d

better have a talk with your parents and tell them you don’t want one any more. Work hard on your lessons and read more interesting books. You may also talk about your problem with your teachers and friends.

If you have more questions, please ask me．

I hope these can help you. Best wishes!

Yours,

Dreamerseires
