For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?
Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents' point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents' complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.
In this article, I'll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen's hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child's failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn't matter what the topic is--politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg--the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority--someone who actually knows something--and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they'll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.
4. Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict?
A. Both can continue for generations. B. Both are about where to draw the line.
C. Neither has any clear winner. D. Neither can be put to an end.
5. Parents and teens want to be right because they want to____________.
A. give orders to the other B. know more than the other
C. get the other to behave properly D. gain respect from the other
6. What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A. Causes for the parent-teen conflicts. B. Examples of the parent-teen war.
C. Solutions for the parent-teen problems. D. Future of the parent-teen relationship.
C
Not all bodies of water are so evidently alive as the Atlantic Ocean, an S-shaped body of water covering 33 square miles. The Atlantic has, in a sense, replaced the Mediterranean as the inland sea of Western civilization. Unlike real inland seas, which seem strangely still, the Atlantic is rich in oceanic liveliness. It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality has been much written about by ancient poets.
“Storm at Sea”, a short poem written around 700, is generally regarded as one of mankind’s earliest artistic representations of the Atlantic.
When the wind is from the west
All the waves that cannot rest
To the east must thunder on
Where the bright tree of the sun
Is rooted in the ocean’s breast.
As the poem suggests, the Atlantic is never dead and dull. It is an ocean that moves, impressively and endlessly. It makes all kinds of noise-it is forever thundering, boiling, crashing, and whistling.
It is easy to imagine the Atlantic trying to draw breath-perhaps not so noticeably out in mid –ocean, but where it meets land, its waters bathing up and down a sandy beach. It mimics(模仿)nearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living creature. It is filled with symbiotic existences, too; unimaginable quantities of creatures, little and large alike, mix within its depths in a kind of oceanic harmony, giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat, a kind of sub-ocean vitality. And it has a psychology. It has personalities: sometimes peaceful and pleasant, on rare occasions rough and wild; always it is strong and striking.
7. Unlike real inland seas, the Atlantic Ocean is __________.
A. always energetic B. lacking in liveliness
C. shaped like a square D. favored by ancient poets
8. What is the purpose of using the poem “Storm at Sea” in the passage?
A. To describe the movement of the waves. B. To show the strength of the storm.
C. To represent the power of the ocean. D. To prove the vastness of the sea.
9. What does the underlined word “symbiotic” mean?
A. Breathing peacefully. B. Growing fast.
C. Moving harmoniously. D. Living together.
10. In the last paragraph, the Atlantic is compared to __________.
A. a beautiful and poetic place B. a flesh and blood person
C. a wonderful world D. a lovely animal

From my second grade on, there was one event I feared every year: the piano recital(独奏演唱会). A recital 11 I had to practice a boring piece of music and perform before strangers.

And I 27 he had been doing what music teachers always stress: 28 the music and pretend the others aren’t there.
“I’m 29 of him for starting something new at his age,” I said to my son Jeff.
“Yeah, and doing it so 30 ,” Jeff added.
With his first recital, my father taught me more about courage and determination than all the words he used those 30-plus years ago.

书面表达范文：
Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to complain about one of your bus-drivers’ improper and rude behaviors.
Last Sunday, when I was taking the No. 1 bus, the driver not only kept on talking with a man loudly but also drove very fast. So some passengers advised him to concentrate on driving, but he didn’t pay any attention. What’s worse, he drove even faster. Then other passengers couldn’t bear it, asking the driver to keep the passengers’ safety in mind. However, the driver stopped the bus so suddenly that all the passengers nearly lost their balance.
I sincerely hope you can investigate this incident and take proper measures to prevent such an incident happening again. Only in this way, can we build a more harmonious society.
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua
