14、 thought that college was a waste of time, but for me it was important to finish college. He wanted me to work my way to the top as he had done in his field, but I wanted a different life. There was a time when we did not talk with each other. A few months ago, I heard that my 84-year-old dad was in
15、 poor health. When he called and asked whether I could move from Colorado back to Tennessee to help him, I knew he was seriously ill. I am his only child and so it was time to meet my fathers requirement. Two weeks after moving back, we bought a boat and started fishing again. Fishing was one of the
16、 few things that we did while I was young and that we both enjoyed. It is strange but true that as we are fishing we are able to put things that have kept us apart for so many years behind us.

22、d dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher. If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let other person know h
23、ow you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesnt solve anything. Communication begins with the concerns of another. It means that you cant just come home from school, go up to your room and ignore ev
24、eryone. Even if you just say “Hi”, and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing. If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance (表达)of information, correspondence (通信), means of communication: a letter or a mess
25、age”. To maintain (保持) a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if its just by writing a note. When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as yo
26、u see it, tell them that youll listen to what they have to say, but ask them politely to listen to you. Yelling or walking away only makes the situation worse. This is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks,
27、but she didnt feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, not when Sophie explained why she was late, they werent as mad and let the incident go. C
28、ommunication is the key factor(因素) here. If Sophies parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble. Communication isnt a one-way deal: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophies, telling the other person how you feel-listening is th
29、e key factor to communication.21. In the writers view, dealing with parents is _ than with children. A. more difficult B. easier C. more uninteresting D. more interesting22. The main idea of the second paragraph is _. A. the importance of friendshipB. to make your feeling known to others C. the impo
30、rtance of communication D. the disagreement between generations23. When parents and children are in communication, the key to a happy relationship is that _. A. children should always obey their parents B. they should be equal C. parents play the leading part D. both make the opposite know their fee
31、lings24. The example in this passage proves that _. A. Sophies parents are willing to listen to her B. Sophie is very polite to her parents C. Sophie did well in explaining her being late D. communication is the solution(解决办法) to misunderstanding25. All the following statements are correct except “_
32、”. A. If you dont agree with others, youd better let them knowB. It is better to say “Hi” to others than say nothing C. If you are not able to communicate, walk away D. Communication is a two-way deal第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to stop sleeping in Class?Sleepin
