Dear Leo,
Know that you are in low spirits for the quarrels with your parents，I would like to help you, but I can totally understand your feelings.
To start with it, you should know what this kind of communication problem worries nearly all the teenagers. Therefore, you don’t have to blame yourself not having a good relationship with your parents.
Actually, it isn't easy for them to talk about myself with my parents either, so my solve is to write down my thoughts in a letter to them. We need to tell them what we want and learn to negotiate. For example, I once get my parents to let me hang out with my friends on weekends unless I got better scores.
What’s more, trust the love of your parents for you and have some faith in them.
They will absolute listen to you and understand you in the end.
I’m looking forward to your good news.
Yours,
Li Hua

Fearmongering (散布恐慌) against China more dangerous to global economy than coronavirus.
After weeks of attempting to make chaos and spread fear about the outbreak of the novel coronavirus epidemic in China, some overseas media outlets and individuals have shifted focus to another battlefield — the Chinese economy. They paint a rather dark picture not just for the Chinese economy but for the global economy.
1.People cannot help but panic about the global economy, which is already facing serious challenges like trade wars. It is easy to point fingers at China for “causing” such a mess for the world.
Anyway, these media outlets are right about a couple of things. 2. After all, consumers across the country are trapped in their homes and businesses and factories have been shut for a good part of this year. Second, we have to be fully aware of these challenges and risks in order to address the problem. The first step to solve a problem is to recognize there is one.
3. If not, why would they invest hundreds of billions of dollars into the economy if they weren’t aware of the problem? Why would they roll out a great number of measures to support businesses?4.
Regardless of how severe the impact will be, the epidemic does not change the fundamentals of the Chinese economy.5. There will be no reason that the vast Chinese consumer market will abruptly disappear or the world will suddenly no longer need products from the massive Chinese manufacturing sector, not to mention the country’s huge investment projects. So it can be safe to say that fearmongering against China is more dangerous to global economy than coronavirus.
A.With the effective measures taken by the whole country, the epidemic will be definitely under control.
B.Certainly, that paints a completely different picture we have seen from abroad.
C.First, the epidemic will make the Chinese economy suffer a little.
D.Still, there are many indicators to look for in assessing the potential damage on the Chinese and global economies.
E.Their articles are filled with scary headlines and exaggerated (夸大的) facts.
F.Why would they take extraordinary risks in encouraging factories to restart production?
G.Actually, Chinese officials have been very clear about the potential impact of the epidemic on the economy.
