When your parents are out, what will you do f...

Dear Daniel,

I feel that I've grown up and should make my own decisions, but my parents disagree. My mom still helps me choose what clothes to wear. My dad asks me to pay attention only to study. I know they do this out of love, but I feel controlled. What should I do?

Amanda

Dear Amanda,

Your parents sound very strict. It's hard to believe that your mom chooses what you wear. Are you a Barbie doll?

Try to take the first step when possible. Dress yourself before your mother has a chance to come in and choose your clothes. If she asks you to change, tell her you'll be late for school.

You should also talk to her. Ask about her choices: What makes a set of clothes acceptable or unacceptable? Tell her you will follow her rules, but you want to make the choices. You are not in first grade. You are a young lady in high school.

As for your father, it's difficult to argue with his mind. After all, he is not totally wrong. How strict is he? Does he lock you up with your textbooks? Are you allowed to have a hobby? Are you allowed to have a smartphone? Are you allowed to hang out with friends?

Such strict parents should know the law of diminishing returns (收益递减). A weightlifter, for examplc, can only lift for an hour or two each day. If she does more, her muscles will not become stronger. She will just get tired. She may even hurt herself!

Our brains also have limits. Some violin teachers say you should only practice a new skill for 15 minutes each day. Our brains need to relax and understand new information. Our brains also have a basic need to socialize (社交). Ask your father: what is the meaning of so much studying if it makes you feel unhappy?

Stay strong.

Daniel

1.Why did Amanda write the letter?

A.To ask for some advice. B.To fight against her parents.

Dear Nancy’s parents,

My daughter had a bullying (欺凌) problem a couple of years ago. It wasn’t easy, but I ended it. When things are a serious as you describe, it is no time to be silent. These kids probably know each other from school, so take the rude text messages sent by the bully directly to the headmaster and show him. Describe to him how it is affecting your 13-year- old daughter. Tell him you will not stand it and you want him to put an end to it now.

Bullying is a dangerous and serious offense these days, and any good headmaster will take your charges seriously. He will probably address the issues with the parents. If they are crappy parents, then they may do nothing to their child. You may have to repeat this process several times, but you need to keep a check on those text messages and don’t allow your child to delete them.

Now is the time to draw your child close and take care of her, because she needs it. My daughter did not like me being involved(参与的)either, but you are the only hope she has of solving this problem, so do it and mean business. Always be polite but straightforward. The headmaster and the parents must know you mean business.

If repeated meetings with the headmaster (and parents, if he allows it) does not solve the problem, then I would consider hiring a lawyer. That will send the message across loud and clear. When you are talking about financial loss, most parents will stand up and take notice and act to keep their kid under control!

Good luck — I wish you the best in this terrible situation.

Yours,

Rachel

1.You should show the text messages to the headmaster to________.

A.find which kid sent the messages B.let him know you love your child

C.ask him to force the bully out of school D.ask him to stop the bullying

2.What does the underlined word “offense” in Paragraph 2 probably mean in Chinese?

A.职责 B.冒犯行为 C.经验 D.警惕

3.What do we learn from the third paragraph?

A.Parents shouldn't be involved in a bullying problem.

B.Children can deal with bullying problems themselves.

C.It’s necessary for parents to be involved in a bullying problem.

D.Not all bullying problems can be solved.

4.What should you do if the bullying problem is not solved by the headmaster?

A.Meet the parents of the bully in person. B.Ask the parents of the bully for payment.

C.Put your child under care. D.Ask a lawyer for help.

5.What is the authors purpose in writing the letter?

A.To offer advice. B.To describe a personal experience.

C.To seek help. D.To ask for advice.

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 deal with communication problem with your parents.

Don't argue with your parents. Don't approach(靠近) 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 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 do something to make each other understood. Here is a good example. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued about it. Michael expressed his ideas patiently and they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.

Of course, your parents might refuse 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 opinions. The opinions of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your thoughts 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!

Someone's always watching you online...

How do they get my information? Did you know that when you surf the Web, many websites put secret software on your computer? The software collects a large amount of information about you and sends it to Internet companies. The Internet companies sell it to other businesses. Your personal information can also be collected from social media（媒体）sites. There are many ways your information can be used.

What information do they collect and why? First, companies collect your information. The companies find out where you live, what websites you visit, and what you do online. With this information, they can guess other things about you. For example, they can guess if you are male or female, how old you are, and your interests. The companies use this information to decide which advertisements（广告）are best for you. Two people can go to the same website, but they will see different advertisements. For example, someone who likes sports could see an advertisement for sneakers, and someone who like films might see an advertisement for movie.

What do they do with my information? Your personal information could also be sold. Some companies collect information just so they can sell it to other businesses. A business that collects and sells personal information is called a data broker. When data brokers sell your information, a lot of different companies will know your online habits. Then these companies will advertise products or other websites to you.

What online habits are tracked（追踪）? Another way your personal information can be collected is through social media. When your information is on social media, a lot of people can see it. Even if you don't use social media, a friend might post a picture or video of you with your name on it. Pictures and videos can be shared for free on social media, which is one of the great benefits（福利）. However, that same act of sharing could be problem for your own security（安全）. If someone knows too much about you, they can steal your identity（身份）. Then they can buy things online and post messages while pretending（假装）to be you.

Conclusion. All of your online habits can be recorded. Studying people's online habits is big business. Your personal information is very valuable to companies. That is how they know who to send their advertisements to. The Internet reaches almost every corner of the world, but the danger is that your personal information might travel that far, too.

正确的，涂A：错误的，涂B。

1.All businesses collect a large amount of information about you online.

2.People who go to the same website may see different advertisements.

3.Data brokers collect your personal information for money.

4.If you don’t get online, your information will be safe.

5.Your personal information can go anywhere with the Internet.
