Most Americans don’t like to get advice from their family. When they need advice, they don’t usually ask people they know. They often write letters to newspapers and magazines. And these newspapers and magazines can give advice on many different subjects such as family problems, language learning and how to buy a house and so on.

Most newspapers publish (刊登) letters from readers with problems. And they would also publish the answers to the letters. There are many writers giving advice to newspapers. Some of these writers are doctors, and some are teachers or lawyers (律师). One of the best writers is a woman. Although she doesn’t have special learning for this kind of work, experience helps her a lot to give advice. She is named Angel. She started writing advice for newspapers at the age of ten. Her advice to young readers now is in a column (栏目) called DEAR ANGEL in the Philadelphia Bulletin.
