But it seems that four out of five young people now get on with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly-held image o
24、f unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels. An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it has ever been in the past. “We were surprised by just how positive todays young people seem to be about their fam
25、ilies,” said one member of the research team. “Theyre expected to be rebellious (叛逆的) and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds; they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. Theres more negotiation and discussion between parents a
26、nd children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They dont want to rock the boat.” So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends. “My parents are happy to discuss things with me and
27、willing to listen to me,” says 17-year-old Daniel Lazall, “I always tell them when Im going out clubbing. As long as they know what Im doing, theyre fine with it.” Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees. “Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example,
28、 as long as Id done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.” Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenage rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A rese
29、archer comments, “Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time i
30、n the 1960s when everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to taking it over.” 51. What is the popularly- held image of teenagers? A. They worry about their school life. B. They live in harmony with their parents. C.
31、 They have to be locked in to avoid making troubles. D. They quarrel a lot with their parents. 52. The study shows that teenagers dont want to _. A. share family responsibility B. cause trouble in their families C. go boating with their family D. make family decisions53. According to the author, tee
32、nage rebellion _ A. may be a false belief B. is common nowadays C. is based on real facts D. resulted from changes in families54. What is the passage mainly about? A. Negotiation in family. B. Education in family. C. Harmony in family. D. Teenage trouble in family. BHow did your friendships begin? M

43、ever we saw him, my father talked about what he planned to do for us, but it rarely amounted to much. I lost faith in his words and in him. I wanted to stop caring, but I couldnt.He didnt understand me, so he simply ignored me not just emotionally, but physically as well. Never once did he hug me, n
44、ever once a pat on the back or a hand on the shoulder.Once every month or two, he would come pick us up and drive us down the highway to Truckers Paradise, a truck stop with gas pumps, a convenience store, a restaurant and a game room.My dad gave each of us a handful of quarters, and wed play games
45、all evening. Hed sit up front in the dining area, drinking coffee and watching us.I loved these times. The quarters and the games were fun but easily forgotten. It was the presence of my father that was most treasured. But, of course, these trips were short-lived. Thats how it was with him. Every so
46、 often he would make some sort of effort, but every time it wouldnt last.It wasnt until I was much older that I would find something to hold on to as evidence of my fathers love.I had convinced myself that I needed a computer even though its price was out of my mothers range.

47、p me raise the money by driving to a watermelon farm, loading up his truck with wholesale (批发的) melons and driving me around to sell them.I was a teenager by then, but this was the first time that I had ever been alone with him.

You might be thinking of monkeys, or dolphins. But perhaps what you have failed to consider is that animals that appear
54、to be stupid are in fact a lot smarter than they look.In the book The Smartest Animals on the Planet, Sally Boysen, a professor from Ohio State University, US, lists a wide variety of intelligent animals, some of which are often overlooked by us.1. CrowWith black feathers and a horrible voice, crows
55、 are considered to be unlucky in China. But in the eyes of scientists, they are the most intelligent birds. In fact, their puzzle-solving and tool-making skills are about the same as a 5-year-old child. In an experiment at the University of Oxford, UK, two crows were presented with two types of wire
56、, one hooked (钩状的) and one straight. When one crow took the hooked wire and got food from a tube, the other crow bent the straight wire into a hook by itself, and got the food too.

57、are not particularly intelligent, but the scary dinosaur-like monitor lizard is an exception studies have shown that it can “count”.In an experiment, monitor lizards were given four snails to eat every time.

Squirrel Most animals that have managed to
59、adapt to cities are curious and bright, and squirrels are no exception. These cunning (狡猾的) little creatures cleverly protect their winter food from potential thieves.Squirrels tend to bury spare nuts and seeds in the soil for winter storage, but if they think they are being watched by any other squ
60、irrels, birds or humans, they make empty burials with no food in them. Professor Michael Steele of Wilkes University in the US has found that a fifth of all so-called food burials are faked and the number goes up if the squirrels think their food is under threat.64. This article is mainly about _.A.
61、 why monkeys and dolphins are the cleverest animalsB. the amazing intelligence of some animals that people dont think of as smart C. the creative ways that animals get foodD. how animals trick their enemies65.

Instead, I will tell the old lady the reason is that I myself dont feel well. As a senior citizen, she should know that although its a practice to

Besides, those young people suffer heavy pressure since they have so much work to do or have to take a lot of exams. For them, a trip sitting on the bus may be a good time to have a break. Personally
83、I think its better for old people not to ride buses at rush hours since they have much free time.2.

They are more likely to be

If things go on like this, more virtues will disappear .What would our country be like without these virtues? Who will care for the next generation when they are old?
