Communication is a problem for parents and children of all the 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.(代沟)
Don’t argue with your parents. Don’t talk to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you shout at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go to some place to cool off. 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(妥协). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something . You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept(接受)each other. Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. If that happens, it is especially important to show love and respect(尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.
Talk about your values(价值观). The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding values might help them see your purpose in life.
( ) 57. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you .
A. often go home late B. don’t speak to them calmly

Making friends is a skill. Like most skills, it improves with practice. If you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing to take some action. You must first go where there are people. You won’t make friends staying at home.
Join a club or group, talk with those who like the same things as you do is much easier.

Or join someone in some activity.
Many people are nervous when talking to new people. After all, meeting strangers means facing the unknown.
Most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are giving an opinion about us—finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept(接受) yourself as you are, and try to put the other person at ease(不拘束). You’ll both feel more comfortable.
Try to keep self-confident even when you don’t feel that way when you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk tall(趾高气扬) and straight, look directly at other people and smile.
If you see someone you’d like to speak to, say something. Don’t wait for the other people to start a conversation.
Just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person—friendship is based on each other’s liking and “give and take”. They take time and efforts to develop. And there are things that keep a new friendship from growing.
( ) 61. If you want to meet people and make friends, What should you do?
A. Join a club or group.. B. Talk with those who like the same things.
C. Join someone in some activity. D. All of above.
( ) 62. In the sentence “After all, meeting strangers means facing the unknown. the word “ unknown” means ?
A. without somebody knowing B. without somebody
