【推荐1】Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true. 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 are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).

Don’t argue 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 some place 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 to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect 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!

【推荐3】Do you like living in a city? Look at the good sides. It is often easier to find work. And there is usually a choice (选择) of public transport (公共交通), so you don’t need to own a car. Also, there are a lot of interesting things to do. For example, you can eat in good restaurants, pay a visit to museums and go to the theater and concert. What’s more, when you want to relax, you can easily find a park to feed the ducks or just sit on the park bench and read a book. All in all, city life is full of interesting activities and you will never feel bored.

However, living in a city also has bad sides. For one thing, you must work hard and try to make as much money as you can. Because it is often very expensive to live in a city. Also, public transport is usually crowded, and even the parks can become full of people on Sundays. Besides, although there are many people in the city, it is still possible to feel lonely (孤独的).

I think young people like city life better because they love the excitement of the city and don’t. mind the noise or the pollution.
