2 . 请根据上下文内容，将文中划线部分译成汉语或者英语，并将答案转写到答题卡上。
Dear Dr Wang,

I’m writing to ask for some advice about my 15-year-old son.     1    他是我们唯一的孩子， and we treat him very well. However, we can never see eye to eye with him on anything. Recently,     2    he has refused to do his homework. His teacher also told me that his performance at school was poor. We were very concerned about him.

Yesterday, we asked him to finish his homework first,     3    but he asked us to leave him alone. He just shut the door in anger.     4    他的妈妈努力镇静下来 instead of getting into an argument with him.

What should we do? We are eager to improve the situation.     5    We look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes,

An anxious father

4 . 下面文章中有3处需要添加小标题。请从以下选项（A、B、C和D）中选出符合各段意思的小标题，选项中有一项是多余选项。

How to Help Birds in Cold Winter Weather

Don’t worry about your backyard birds during winter weather. Whether it is hot or cold, raining or snowing, birds have to adapt and survive the weather conditions. Learn how to help them by providing food, water and shelter.

    1    

On cold winter days, birds need to eat immediately in the morning as they have used energy reserves to stay warm overnight. It’s helpful to provide easy access to food in the morning. The more energy birds can gather quickly, the more likely they are to thrive (茁壮成长).

    2    

Once lakes and rivers freeze over, birds have a difficult time finding water. By offering a heated bird bath for birds to drink from, you will not only help them survive but will also attract many more birds than you would with feeders alone.

    3    

Give birds a way to escape the cold wind in winter. You can do anything from building a simple stick pile in the corner of your yard to putting up roosting boxes (栖息箱) for birds to use. Leave your birdhouses up. There are several species that will use birdhouses as roosting sites during the winter. Bluebirds do this most commonly. Be sure to clean out old nesting material and block any holes so they can keep their warmth in.

A. Provide fresh water
B. Remember to give birds choices
C. Offer birds shelter from the wind
D. Put food out early to help winter birds
