Do you have any idea which kind of animals in America have their own national holiday? Not strong lions, not free birds, not even faithful dogs, but cute fat groundhogs! And this holiday is not only welcome but also the most watched weather forecast each year.

There is an old legend that on February second, if the groundhog comes out of his burrow and sees his shadow, he will go back home to sleep. And there will be six more weeks of winter. If no shadow, then he will come out and begin looking for food. It means that we’ll have the early spring this year.

This tradition comes from a time when people lived closer with nature, and they paid more attention to when animals awaken in the spring. The most famous groundhog was named Phil. More than millions of Americans look forward to seeing it on that special day.

Dear Melody,

My name is Joe. I’m a ninth grader, a junior high school student. My teachers and classmates keep telling me that I should study harder for the coming Basic Competence Test in May. But they don ’t understand how worried I am for my family.

My mom, she is a couch potato and always forgets to do housework. So, after school I have to do some housework, but I’m not good at it. I often get scalded when either cooking or heating water. It really hurts!

I think my mom cares TV more than me. And that hurts me even more!

I had a twin brother, Willy, but we can’t get along with each other. Recently, he has started smoking and cutting classes. I wonder if it’s a good time to tell my dad about it because I secretly found out my father lost his job last month. I’m also afraid that I won’t have the money to go to senior high.

Oh, Melody, I do want to have closer relationship with my family and share my feelings with them. And this is the wish from the bottom of my heart.
