Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap(消除代溝). Don't argue(爭辯) with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go to someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter. Try to reach a compromise(和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days. Of course, your parents might refuse(拒絕) to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect(尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!1. The passage tells ushave a communication problem. A. parents and other peopleB. school kids and their friends C. teachers and their studentsD. parents and children 2.Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you. A. don't get to them oftenB. write a letter to them C .don't speak to them politelyD. express yourself well 3.The underlined phrase "cool off" in the passage means "" .

A. have a talk with them oftenB. keep away from them C. agree with them all the timeD. tell them your values 5.From the passage we can learn that. A. parents and children should not have a generation gap B. parents should show love and respect to their children C. there are some good ways to bridge the generation gap D. there are so many serious problems in families todayBDo you always focus on studying and getting "A" grades in school? Most Chinese students work really hard. But in the United States, you might be considered a bookworm(書呆子)if you cannot socialize(社交). Socializing is as important as your grades. If you just study all the time and don't socialize, your life won't be complete. So, how does one socialize with students in the US?Lots of high schools often have soccer games during the autumn term. I didn't know anything about soccer, but I joined some of the soccer games in order to have fun with my friends. I thought I could learn the rules from others. However, to my surprise, some American students don't even know the rules but still go to the games in order to socialize. They cheer for the soccer players and have fun together.The other common way to socialize is to join after-school clubs. You can choose clubs that you are interested in and make a lot of new friends. For example, one of my friends started a sketch(素描) club. I was interested in sketching, so I joined the club. There I met lots of students who were also interested in sketching. We soon became friends with each other.Socializing is an important thing in the US. But grades are still important, too. An all-around student should have the ability to balance(平衡) his or her studying and socializing.1. You might be considered _____ if you cannot socialize in the United States. A. a good student B. a bookworm C. a lazy student D. a hard-working student 2. When do lots of high schools have soccer games in the US? A. During the autumn term. B. During the summer term. C. During the spring term. D. During the winter term. 3. How many ways to socialize are mentioned in the passage? A. Five. B. Four. C. Three. D. Two. 4. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage? A. Most Chinese students work really hard. B. Not all American students who go to the soccer games know the rules. C. The writer joined some of the soccer games in order to play soccer. D. If you want to make lots of new friends, you can join clubs that you are interested in.5. What is the best title of the passage? A. How to make new friends B. Balance studying and socializing C. Socializing is not as important as your grades D.
