Dear Mr. Hunt, My problem is that I can’t get on with my family. Relations between my parents have become difficult. They fight a lot, and I really don’t like it. Its the only communication they have. I don’t know if I should say anything to them about this. When they argue, it’s like a big, black cloud hanging over our home. Also, my elder brother is not very nice to me. He always refuses to let me watch my favorite TV show. Instead he watches whatever he wants until late at night. I don’t think this is fair. At home I always feel lonely and nervous. Is that normal? What can I do? Sad and Thirteen Dear Sad and Thirteen, It’s not easy being your age, and it’s normal to have these feelings. Why don’t you talk about these feelings with your family? If your parents are having problems, you should offer to help. Maybe you could do more jobs around the house so that they have more time for proper communication. Secondly, why don’t you sit down and communicate with your brother? You should explain that you don’t mind him watching TV all the time. However, he should let you watch your favorite show. I hope things will be better for you soon.

Language points 1. Although she’s wrong, it’s not big deal. 尽管她做的不对，但没什么大不了的。 big deal 是英语中 的一个固定搭配，表示“ 重要的事情或是状况” 多用于非正式交流， 做否定用法时，常说 it’s not a big deal. 或 it is no big deal. 表示说话人并不认为某事 有什么大不了的。 e.g. There’s a soccer game on TV this evening but I don’t have to watch it. It’s no a big deal. big deal 还可用于肯定和疑问结构中。例如： It’s a big deal, David, bigger than you know. 这事挺重要的，戴维，比你所知道的要重要。 What’s the big deal? It’s only a birthday, not the end if the world. 有什么了不起的？这不过是个 生日，又不是世界末日。 2. Hope things work out. 希望事情会好起来。 这是一种常见的表达法，表示某些不如人意的 事情会随着时间的推移逐渐有所改变。句中 Work out为动词短语，表示“解决（问题）； 改善（状况）”之意。 e.g. Don’t worry. Things will work out. 别担心，事情会慢慢解决的。 3.
