 Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut.” Joanna noted.

Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to cuddle up (蜷伏)with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”

Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list.” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”

Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.

“The door to his room is always shut” suggests that the son          .

 A.keeps himself away from his parents  

B.doesn’t want to be disturbed

 C.is always busy with his studies      

D.begins to dislike his parents

What troubles Tina and Mark most is that       .

 A.their daughter isn’t as lovely as before

 B.they don’t know what to say to their daughter

 C.they can’t read their daughter’s mind exactly

 D.their daughter talks with them only when she needs help

Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?

 A.Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.

 B.Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.

 C.Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.

 D.Teenagers talk little about their own lives.

.What can be learned from the passage?

 A.Parents are unhappy with their growing children.

 B.Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.

 C.Parents should try to understand their teenagers.

 D.Parents should be patients with their silent teenagers.

  George Zimmerman's first court appearance before a Florida judge came on Tuesday in connection with the shooting of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin.The case has caused a national debate in the United States about race, self-defense laws and gun control.

  It was the first time the public had gotten to see and hear from George Zimmerman.The judge said he had found probable cause to move ahead with the case and told Zimmerman he would be formally charged on May 29th.

  Zimmerman turned himself into authorities on Wednesday night, just before special prosecutor (检举人)Angela Corey announced the charge against him.

  Corey told reporters she would fight for Trayvon Martin.

  "It's the victims and justice that we work tirelessly for " Corey said.

  Zimmerman says he shot Martin in self-defense after spotting the teenager in a gated community where Martin's father lives.He told police Martin attacked him during a conflict.The shooting caused a national cry led by Martin's parents who insisted their son was murdered.They also accused Zimmerman of targeting their son because he was black.

  "We just wanted an arrest and we got it," Trayvon Martin's mother Fulton said.

  Many in Sanford, Florida -the city where the shooting took place-welcomed the charge.

  "All of us were wanting this to move on and get to this process where it is now into the justice system," one man said.

  "It was long overdue (迟到的) and I am glad they decided to do something," another said.

  Police did not initially charge Zimmerman with a crime because of a Florida law that says a person has a right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force.Prosecutor Corey say:

  '' I'm prepared to argue the issue if Zimmerman uses the self-defense law in court''.

  Mark O'Mara, Zimmerman's lawyer, would not make his plan public, but he said his client (委托人) was worried about the trial.

  "If found guilty of the second-degree murder charge, Zimmerman could face up to life in prison.", O'Mara said.

  Often, I wonder why people like Michael Jordan and O.J.Simpson are considered heroes.People will say that Jordan and Simpson are heroes because they are good   1   to young people.They are two incredibly gifted men who play their   2   sports with tremendous heart and determination.They have shown   3   and personality at all times on and off the court and they’ve   4   millions of people.Mentioned as well will be that Jordan is basketball’s greatest player, and Simpson   5   among the greatest running backs in football history.However, the question remains, are they really heroes?

  Jordan and Simpson are not   13   role models.They are past and present athletes who have used their   14   abilities to become national superstars.  15   people see Jordan slam the door and they wanted to be like him.This is   16   parents would tell their children that these athletes can be   17   for their exceptional talent in sports, but   18   they live their lives   19   the court is what separates them from   20   heroes.
