    It's natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they're with their parents. They say that their parents don't 1 them. They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they're strict with their children; and they 2 give their children a free hand. It's true that parents often find it 3to get on well with their children. In fact, they seem to forget 4 they themselves felt when they were young. For example, young people like to act on the spot (当场) without 5 thinking. It's one of their ways to show that they've 6 and they can face any difficulties. Old people worry more easily. Most of them plan things ahead, at least in the back of their minds, and don't like their 7 to be broken(打断) by something unexpected. Young people often 8 their parents angry at their choices in clothes, in hobbies and in music. But they don't mean to cause any trouble. They just don't want to be like anyone 9. For many years, you will be completely under your parents' control. If you plan to 10 your life, you'd better win your parents and try to get them to understand you.  11 your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility(责任感), they will certainly believe you, and you can do 12 you want to do.

    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 are some suggestions for you to bridge generation gap(代沟).

    Don't argue with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them You can't express(表达) 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 (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree(有分歧) 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 car. They argued over it, but finally they came to a compromise. Michael bought the car, 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 (尊敬） to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.

    Talk about your values. 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.

    People all have problems. If we don't deal with these problems, we can easily become unhappy. Worrying about our problems can affect how we do at school. It can also influence the way we behave with our families. So how do we deal with our problems? There are many ways and here is one of them

    Most of us have probably been angry with our friends, parents or teachers. Perhaps they said something you didn't like, or you felt they were unfair. Sometimes people can stay angry for years about a small problem. Time goes by, and good friendship may be lost.

When we are angry, however, we are usually the ones affected. Perhaps we have seen young children playing together. Sometimes they have disagreements, and decide not to talk to each other. However, this usually does not last for long. This is an important lesson for us to learn.

      My friends and I got to talking about the rules that we have in school.

      At our school, we have to w      uniforms every day. The problem is that all my classmates think the uniforms a      ugly. We think young people should look s      and so we would like to wear our own clothes. Our teachers believe that if we did that, we would concentrate more on our clothes t      our studies. We disagree. We would feel more comfortable and that is good for s      . If we can't do that, we should be allowed to design our own uniforms. That would be a good way to keep both teachers and students h      . It's also probably a good idea for parents to a      teenagers to study in groups during the evening. I know we get noisy sometimes, b      we can learn a lot from each other. We also think that vacations should be longer. At present they're too short. Longer vacations would g      us time to do things like volunteering. Last summer I had an opportunity to volunteer at the local hospital, but I couldn't because I had to go back to school. It would be a good experience for me because I want to b      a doctor when I grow up.
