Conflict （冲突）is a normal part of life, but it can be hard for parents and teenagers to discuss problems. These discussions can make both parents and kids angry and impatient. How can parents communicate with teenagers about problems?When you try to solve （解决）problems with your kids, you can talk to them using "I" messages or "You" messages. For example, let's say that 17 -year -old Amy comes home late in the night. Here's what her mom could say:●"You" message :Mom: You are late again ! You should be home on time. What were you thinking?Amy: Leave me alone, mom! You are always shouting at me!●"I" message :Mom: When you come home late, I get worried because I'm afraid something has happened to you.Amy: I didn't realize how worried you get."You" messages blame（责备）kids and can make them defensive （防御的）or angry, so kids probably have no interest in solving the problem. But "I" messages describe problems and let kids know that you trust them and believe they can help you solve the problem. An "I" message includes descriptions of the problem behavior, your feelings about the behavior and the effect of the behavior. For example, let's say that Jerry and his younger brother Jason are fighting in the car and disturbing their dad who is driving. To solve the problem, using an "I" message, dad could say, "When you two fight in the back of the car, I get worried about driving safely because your fighting is so distracting （分散注意力的）. Please be quiet!"34. What does the underlined phrase "see eye -to -eye" mean?A. Trust someone.B. Face the fact together.C. See each other.D. Have the same opinion.35. We can infer that _________________________.A. parents and teenagers often reach an agreement in lifeB. the way parents communicate with teenagers is importantC. "You" messages aren't used because they only express a feelingD. "I" messages can make listeners feel worried about the problem36. According to what the dad said, what is the description of feelings?A. You two fight in the car.B. Please be quiet!C. I get worried about driving.D. Drive safely.37. The main purpose of this passage is __________________________.A. to help parents communicate with teenagers about problemsB. to show us what messages are popular with kids and parentsC. to explain why many parents can't solve family problemsD. to tell us how to discuss problems with parents and teenagersCChewing gum（嚼口香糖）is very popular. People chew gum on the bus, in the streets and while they watch television. Young people like chewing gum so much that schools have rules against chewing in class. Some people like a special kind of gum called bubble gum. They chew it for a while and then they blow bubbles with it.Chewing gum has a long history. It has changed in many ways over the past 100 years. The story of gum begins in Mexico. Gum is made from the sap （树液）of a tree that grows in the jungles of Mexico. The name for this sap is chictli. An army general （将军）from Mexico brought some chictli to New York. A man named Thomas Adams was trying to make rubber. He thought he could make rubber from chictli so he bought a lot of gum from the general. Unfortunately, Thomas Adams' plan to make rubber didn't work , but he discovered another thing to do with the chictli.People at that time liked to chew wax （蜡）. Thomas Adams noticed that his son liked to chew the chictli. The gum had no taste but it was still better than chewing wax. Adams began tomarket his product as chewing gum. He sold it as small "chickle balls," for a penny each. In 1875 a chemist had the idea of adding flavours（味道）to give the gum more taste. The chemist tried several different flavours. The most popular flavour was peppermint （胡椒薄荷）.William Wrigley Jr., a soap salesman, was the first person to use modern processing（工艺流程）and packaging for gum. He began advertising his gum, and it became very popular. Two gums that he introduced, Wrigley's Spearmint and Juicy Fruit, are still top-selling gums today.A little later, two brothers, the Fleer brothers, became interested in gum. They added some new ingredients （原料）. Then one brother had a great idea. He put candy around the gum. This new kind of gum was called "Chicklets. " The other brother found a gum that made bubbles. He called this discovery "Double Bubble. " Both of these new kinds of gum were a success.38. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The history of chewing gum.B. The different kinds of gum.C. Chewing gum is popular with all sorts of people.D. Students are not allowed to chew gum in school.39. Why was Thomas Adams interested in chictli?A. Because he believed it would be popular.B. Because he wanted to make more money.C. Because he found his son enjoyed chewing it.D. Because he thought he could make rubber from it.40. Who had the idea of giving the gum more taste?A.
