18. I've always felt a bit sad for weekend fathers, who are divorced and must maintain a bond with their children
through visits on the weekend．Not having the opportunity for a lot of quality time, they go in for quantity giving
lots of gifts and taking the children on non stop outings． But now I can understand．I'm a weekend mom．My child, Henry, is a dog． Henry just returned to his father, Jack, after a happy stay with me．For ten days, I fed him the best food, canceled plans to stay home with him and let him sleep on the bed every night．
Jack and I broke up a year ago．But neither of us wanted to part with Henry, so we share him．Not surprisingly, Henry is a willing participant in our contest for his love．
Jack doesn't let Henry sleep on his bed, so that's where I can always gain big points．I feed Henry higher______________ quality food．I am always replacing his expensive “thingy\g on．It' s his favorite toy, and the only one he has is at my house．Score another one for me．
Jack now has a girlfriend, Lucy．At first she was afraid of dogs, which secretly delighted me．But that Henry, just trying to be polite（the way I taught him to be）,won her over．
If truth be told, as time passes, there has been a slight change in Henry' s behavior toward me．The worst was one day when Jack dropped him off for a two______________ week stay．Henry and I were in the backyard playing as Jack was driving off．When he heard Jack's truck, he ran after it for two blocks until Jack had to stop and bring him back．
That hurt, especially since I had friends over at the time．In a rare
conciliatory （安抚的） mood, Jack said to me, \but you'll always be his mom．\

19. This is a story told or read to children of young ages．The heroine（女主人公）, Cinderella, treated cruelly by her stepmother and her two ugly stepsisters, is helpless until the right magic comes along．She meets her prince and they live together happily．
Just a sweet, pretty tale? Not in the view of Ellen Macintosh, who has
written much about fairy tales．Ellen' s main concern is with what the story implies．
\just waits for a fairy godmother to appear and solve her problem．But wouldn't you want a daughter of yours to show more spirit?\
The story is long______________ lasting, whatever its shortcomings, and it does' t take much to see its influence on a number of recent Hollywood
productions．In these versions for the silver screen, the Cinderella character no longer has to clean the house and has no sisters to make her life terrible, though she keeps the way of not showing much courage．The character of the rich and handsome stranger, however, is kept, and in some cases really is a prince．The role of the fairy godmother is often played by luck; we live in a civilized age when even very young children might reject the idea of
fairies．In the majority of film versions, the heroine has a profession and is even permitted to continue working after marrying her prince ______________ this is the twenty first century, after all．
Doesn't the success of these films indicate that the story has relevance to children even today?” Yes,, admits Ellen, who sees its message as being rooted in a fundamental childhood desire for love and attention．\children experience a sense of inner loneliness as they are growing up and empathize with （与…共鸣）the character who faces some sort of
challenge．This can be seen in the original story of Cinderella, where the fairy godmother tells the heroine that she must learn to be gracious and confident if she is to go to the ball．She has to grow spiritually, and by maturing, she becomes attractive to the prince, thus ensuring that the ending of the story will be happy．\（因素）is missing,\
role in life is to be more beautiful than other girls so that she can carry off the prize: the handsome prince．Is this really what we want girls to grow up believing?\

20. School Counseling（咨询）
In our grandparents' time, it was unthinkable．In our parents' time, it was unusual and nobody spoke openly about counseling．These days, more and more schools are asking for this service and it is considered a necessity for most．Why is it? What has changed in the last fifty years to have made counseling at schools so important?
“One reason is that we expect schools to do more to protect their pupils than we did in the past,\．“ Also, our society doesn't work as well as it should．Many parents are either under
pressure of work or face the economic problems of unemployment, while children are under more and more pressure to do well at school．Many pupils feel they are pushed to their limits by their parents and teachers．\
Most school children face some kind of relationship problem at some stage
