五、阅读理解
(2020·江苏南京) LIFE is AWKWARD. What should you do when your parents are embarrassing (使尴尬) you in front of your friends? Or what if you see someone who looks like a classmate stealing someone else’s headphones? In our social Q’s column (专栏), the teenager Harper Ediger and the adult Philip Galanees give their best advice to kids looking for help navigating real-life situations. Now it’s your turn: Do you have a question about an uncomfortable social situation at school, at home, on social media or among friends? Email it to us at *[e-mail]* and Harper and Philip may answer it in a future issue (一期). Please include your age and hometown. C’mon, we know you have one.
To inspire (激励) you, here are reader-submitted questions we’ve published in previous issues:
My mum signs me up for camps and activities without asking what I want to do. I only learn what I’m doing at the last minute. I don’t like this surprise, and I feel that I should be able to help plan my time. How can I have more of a say?
At my school, fourth graders need to learn different dances, then dress up for a fancy party where we ask partners to dance with us. This makes me nervous, and I’m not looking forward to it. How should I handle this situation?
My sister is home for college break, and lucky me, she’s my roommate. As I’m 12 and she’s almost 19, we both want our own space. I know she doesn’t mean it personally, but she always complains that she doesn’t have a home, which makes me feel as if I’m intruding in my own room. Do I tell her how I feel or let it go?
