it is a good way to help him out.

Listening is a kind of love.

For example, we may think our parents are always talking too much. But in fact, they do so because they are anxious about our health, study and so on. If we listen patiently, our parents will feel we care about them. A loving silence is often more powerful (有力量的) than words.

Listening is polite behavior.

Sometimes, we just want others to listen to us but forget to listen to others. In fact, that's not polite. In order to show our respect(尊重) for others, we had better listen to them first. Then we can express our ideas.

Listening sounds easy， but it's not. Every head is a world. So we should learn to listen with our ears, eyes and hearts as much as we can, and try to make ourselves good listeners from now on.

Main parts of the two replies from the editor of the magazine Students' Life:

A. You should discuss this problem with your parents. Have you talked to your father? Surely, he misses you, too. Tell him how you feel, and perhaps he would spend more time with you. You can also ask your mother to do something fun with you when your father isn’t home. B. You shouldn’t worry so much. If you study hard, you’ll do well. Try to relax, find time to go for walks and eat three healthy meals every day. Don’t drink coffee or tea, or you won’t be able to sleep. You d better drink a glass of hot milk before going to bed.
