2 . Making Peace with Your Parents

As a teen, you’re going through big changes physically and mentally. Your interests are increasing.     1     Here is the challenge: Kids need to explore the world in new ways, and parents need to protect them from the dangers that are all out in that world. These conflicts can easily set off fireworks in otherwise calm houses. Sometimes conflicts can’t be avoided. But by paying attention to the building blocks of successful relationships, you can work towards making home a happy and healthy place for you and your parents.

For example, try to find a time to talk when your parents are not angry, tired, distracted or hungry. A good time to talk is when you’re all relaxed. Timing is everything. If the conversation begins to turn into an argument, you’d better calmly and coolly ask to stop the conversation for now.     2     Listen to what your parents are saying, and repeat it back to them. This shows them that you’re listening.     3     Respect is the building block of good communication. People who respect each other and care about each others’ feelings can disagree without getting things ugly.     4     How do you build trust? Trust comes by actually doing what you say you’re going to do. Some teens find that doing fun activities with their parents can improve their relationships. Sometimes we forget that parents are more than rule-maker—they’re interesting people who like to watch movies and go shopping—just like their teenagers!

What do you do if you are trying your best, but your relationship with your parents continues to be rocky?     5     You can find supportive adults, such as a teacher or a coach, who can lend an ear. Remember you can only change your own behavior. Your parents are the only ones who can change theirs.

A．You may consider seeking outside help.

B．And then you’ll be able to accept what your parents say.

C．You can pick it up again when everyone’s more relaxed.

D．Faced with the challenge, children don’t know what to do.

E．And your desire to take control of your own life is growing.

F．It also gives them a chance to clear things up if you’re not on the same page.

G．You are more likely to get along with your parents and have more independence if your parents believe in you.

3 . The wheelchair-bound young man, a patient of mine, was pushed to the lectern (演讲台) at the high school to deliver his commencement address. His face still partially paralyzed（瘫痪的）, and he spoke in a soft voice. But Mark Orsini delivered a powerful speech and received a thunderous applause from his fellow students, who had wondered if he’d live to graduate.

The 18-year-old had developed Guillain-Barre syndrome, which can cause paralysis. Soon he was almost completely paralyzed.

His parents insisted that he was a fighter. He’d get through this and go on to attend Dartmouth. But meanwhile, immobile and on a ventilator（呼吸器）, how was he going to ask questions or be involved in his class?

The solution was remarkable: The Orsinis would sit at Mark’s side and recite the alphabet. When they got to a letter Mark needed to spell a word, he’d nod “yes.” They’d write it down, then start over and wait for him to nod again. They never lost patience and Mark was involved with every decision. Standard treatment hadn’t helped, so I proposed a risky procedure to filter（过滤） his blood. After treatment he showed improvement and soon he could move his toes, his legs and then his arms.

Mark has graduated from Dartmouth. I saw him in my office some time ago, and he was feeling great. But there was a lot left unsaid. I wanted to say I was in awe of him, and that his parents were some of the most amazing people I’d ever met, sitting by his bed for hours, patiently listening to their child speak letter by letter. I wanted to tell him of my shame when my children tried to talk to me and I brushed them off because I didn’t have time to listen. I wanted to say I’d never forget him or his parents. But words failed me.

1. The underlined word “commencement” in Paragraph 1 means _________.

A．graduation	B．promise
C．birthday	D．acceptance

2. What did Mark’s parents do for him when he was learning in class?

A．They did everything for Mark.

B．They assisted Mark in learning.

C．They lost patience sometimes.

D．They made decisions for him.

3. We can learn from the passage that ___________.

A．the standard treatment Mark received was a great success

B．the doctor was not satisfied with Mark’s treatment and felt ashamed

C．the doctor told Mark’s parents that they were impressive and unforgettable

D．the doctor would like to have shared more of his true feelings with Mark

4. According to the last paragraph, how did the writer feel about the way he treated his children?

A．He felt proud of it.	B．He felt confident of it.
C．He felt guilty of it.	D．He felt doubtful about it

4 . I need to be in my office by nine o'clock so I usually get up at seven o'clock. I travel to work “on the tube”. That’s     1    in London. It takes about fifty minutes. Usually, it’s     2     I can’t find anywhere to sit. I just stand. I’m always tired before I arrive at work. I don’t like the underground!

I love movies. My wife calls me a “movie fan”. But there isn’t a cinema in my village so I don’t get the chance to go very often. I go about twice a year, usually when I go to London with my family. We take a weekend break there when I am not too busy on the farm. My wife loves looking in the clothes shops and I like     3    . I also like to buy a few cigars. Unfortunately, my wife isn’t     4    .

My son and daughter love to ride on London’s red buses and they     5    !

Unfortunately, disaster came in 1995 when he fell from his horse and broke his back. The doctors did not     6    . However, he     7    . At first, he couldn’t breathe without a machine, but he learnt to     8    . He would never walk again but he started a new life with great courage.

The second year after his accident, Christopher returned to film making. He also     9    to promote medical research into back injuries. He made speeches all over the USA about his experiences. This not only     10    to research into back injuries but also encouraged a lot of people living with all kinds of problems.
