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 is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap(消除代溝)。
Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t consider(認(rèn)同) your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off（冷靜）. 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(看法). 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!

If you have a brother or sister, you already know you are different from each other. You live together in the same house and the same parents, but you have different personalities.
Why is this? One possible reason is the way your parent treat you. First –born children receive all the attention from their parents. Most families have twice as many photos of a first-born than any other child. Parents usually give first-born more responsibilityand depend on them to take care of younger brothers and sisters. As a result, first -born are often responsible, hard-working, and jealous. They often want to do well at school and work. There are more first-born American Presidents, for example, George Bush, George Washington, andLyndon Baines Johnson-than second or last-born children.
When a second child arrives, parents are more relaxed. The second child has to competewith the first-born for the parents, attention and love. Their children often choose different sports and hobbies to do well at school and work, but have to be creative to get their family’s attention. They are often friendly and cool.

It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.
Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and maths need not be taught in detail, either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.
Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human. Educationis to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and take an interest in the world.
I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.

【小題1】People with little education usually         .

A．spend a long time in school
B．have a good chance to get a job
C．spend the best years to choose jobs
D．have fewer chances to get a good job
【小題2】 The earliest education was probably to         .
A．make a man lead a better life
B．teach a man to write and read
C．make people get a way of living
D．teach people to read good books
【小題3】The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “            “in Chinese.
A．圓滿的 B．嶄新的
C．公平的 D．全面的
【小題4】 It is expected that educated people will be able to            .
A．a(chǎn)ccept education as a way of living
B．take an interest in the whole world
C．develop their abilities to make plays
D．learn subjects like language and math
【小題5】 The passage mainly tells us that         .
A．education should make a man improve

配對(duì)閱讀。左欄是學(xué)生們的五種不妥行為或危險(xiǎn)的情形，右邊是老師所給出的七條建議。請搭配左右兩欄。

【小題1】Yesterday Li Hong found a strainger following her all the way. She ran home as quickly as possible.
【小題2】Tom often uses earphones when walking outside.
【小題3】It’s a long way from Wang Jun’s home to school, so he often sleeps all the way on the bus.
【小題4】There are too many passengers on the bus today, and Li Feng puts his bag out of his reach.
【小題5】The house is on fire and there is full of smoke in the house, and you are in it.
You should press the cut with a piece of cloth to stop the blood, then go to hospital as quickly as possible.
Don’t use earphones when walking outside. It’s dangerous to do so because you can’t notice those cars, buses or trucks back and forth.
Your bag should be put within your reach, or it is easy enough for the thieves to steal the things in your bag.
If you are followed by a stranger, cross the street and go in the other direction. Next, go and get help from others if it is necessary. Don’t go home directly. Your are safer on the street than you are in your home alone.
You can’t leave school by yourself. Don’t forget it’s safer in school yard than the outside world.
Don’t sleep on buses, or you may miss the right stop.
If your house catches fire and you have to escape through smoke, move on your hands and knees with your head 30 to 60 centimeters above the floor. Please remember there is cleaner and cooler air near the floor during the fire.
