A serious problem for today’s society is who should be responsible for our elderly and how to improve their lives.It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society.
First,employers should take the responsibility for their employees. But when a company must take life-long responsibility for its employees,it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage due to higher employee costs.
This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement.This does not seem a very fair model since some people have enough trouble paying for daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years.This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor.
In addition, the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly.This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions.Furthermore,some institution should be created for senior citizens,which can help provide a comfortable life for them.
The government can seldom afford to care for the elderly,particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young.
One further solution is that the government or social organizations establ
ish some working places especially for the elderly where they are independent.Therefore,it is r
easonable to expect that some combination of these options may be needed to provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations.
| A．Every coin has two sides |
| B．To sum up,all these options have advantages and disadvantages. |
| C．I would like to suggest several possible solutions to this problem. |
D．It’s unfair to let the governme nt to share all the responsibilities. |
E. To make this possible,a percentage of profits should be set aside for this purpose.
F. Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual.
G. Unfortunately,as the present situation in our country shows,this is not a truly practical answer.

A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon. When you recognize your teen is under stress, how can parents help your teen stay calm before an exam?
Be involved. Parents need to be involved in their teen's work. What they look for is your presence--- to talk, to cry, or simply to sit with them quietly. Communicate openly with your teen. Encourage your teen to express his worries and fears, but don't let them focus on those fears.
Help them get organized. Together, you and your teen can work out a time-table in which she can study for what she knows will be on the test.
Provide a calm setting. Help your teen set up a quiet place to study and protect his privacy.
Give them a nutritious diet. It's important for your teen to eat a healthy, balanced diet during exam times to focus and do her best. If this happens, encourage your teen to eat light meals or sandwiches. A healthy diet, rather than junk food, is best for reducing stress.
Persuade your teenager to get some sleep and/or do something active when she needs a real break from studying. Making time for relaxation, fun, and exercise are all important in reducing stress. Help your teen balance her time so that she will feel comfortable taking time out from studying to spend time with friends or rest.
Show a positive attitude.Your panic, anxiety and blame contribute to your teen’s pressure. Make your teen feel accepted and valued for her efforts. Most importantly, reassure your teen that things will be all right, no matter what the results are.

The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before.
But just as in face to face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line. 1Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes.
For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Would I say this to the person’s face?” if the answer is no, rewrite and reread. 2
If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct（本能）is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. 3If it was caused by a disagreemen
t with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.
4Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be k
ind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel 
strong about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else. 5At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended（冒犯）.
It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don’t ask such questions.
| A．It’s natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online. |
B．Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying the words to the person’s face. |
| C．Everyone was new to the network once. |
| D．The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. |
E. When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hear.
F. You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messages.
G. If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely.
