介绍:
Agony aunt
In 1691 John Dutton in England had a problem, but he had no one to ask for advice. He thought that other people might be in a similar situation, so he began his own newspaper to give people advice. The newspaper proved to be quite successful, and soon many people started similar newspapers. Other newspapers also started to have advice columns. By 1740, however, most of the people given advice were women. Today we call the person giving advice to readers in a newspaper or magazine an agony "aunt".
