UNIT 6

Read the letter from page 79 of your textbook.

Before You Read: Dr. Naomi Brown is a psychologist. She writes an advice column in a magazine.

Dear Dr. Naomi,     My husband is driving me crazy. He gets up at five o'clock, come rain or shine. Then he exercises until seven. He's a coach. He eats, breathes, and sleeps sports.     He has a soccer team, a baseball team, and a women's volleyball team. He works with them every day, even on holidays. At four-thirty he comes home. Of course he's always tired, so we never go out. From four-thirty until nine o'clock (when he goes to bed), he watches TV. Then what does he watch? Sports. Sports. Always.     I hate sports. Sports are ruining my life. I really don't know what I'm going to do. I need your help. A Sports Widow in the Midwest
