Ⅰ. 阅读理解
The clothes you wore. The food you ate. The colour of your bedroom walls. The people you hung about with. What do these things have in common? They’re just a few examples of the many hundreds of things that your parents controlled for you when you were a kid.
As a kid, you didn’t have a say on many things. Your parents made decisions about everything from the cereal(麦片)you ate in the morning to the pyjamas(睡衣裤)you wore at night. And it’s a good thing, too. Kids need this kind of protection and assistance because they aren’t mature enough to take care of themselves and make careful decisions on their own.
But finally, kids grow up and become teenagers. And part of being a teenager is developing your own identity -- one that is separate from your parents’. It’s totally normal for teenagers to create their own opinions, thoughts, and values about life; it’s what prepares them for adulthood. But as you change and grow into this new person who makes his or her own decisions, your parents may have a difficult time adjusting.
In most families, it is this adjustment that can cause a lot of fighting between teenagers and parents. And issues like the types of friends you have or your attitudes to partying can cause bigger arguments, because your parents always want to protect you and keep you safe, no matter how old you are.
The good news about fighting with your parents is that in many families the arguing will lessen as parents get more comfortable with the idea that their teenagers have a right to certain opinions. It can take several years for teenagers and parents to adjust to their new roles, though. In the meantime, focus on communicating with your parents as best you can.
Sometimes this can feel impossible -- like your parents just don’t see your point of view and never will. But talking and expressing your opinions can help you gain more respect from your parents.
Keep in mind, too, that your parents were teenagers once and that in most cases, they can relate to what you’re going through.
