There are hundreds of things that your parents controlled for you when you were a child. And it’s a good thing, too — kids need this kind of protection and assistance, because they aren’t mature enough to take care of themselves and make careful decisions on their own.
But eventually, kids grow up and become teens. It’s totally normal for teens to create their own opinions, thoughts, and values about life; it’s what prepares them for adulthood. But as you change and grow into this new person who makes his or her own decisions, your parents may have a difficult time adjusting themselves to it.
In most families, it’s this adjustment that can cause a lot of fighting between teens and parents. Teens get angry because they feel parents don’t respect them and aren’t giving them space to do what they like, and parents get angry because they aren’t used to not being in control or they disagree with the teens’ decisions.
It’s easy for feelings to get very hurt when there are conflicts like these. And more complicated issues can cause even bigger arguments, because your parents will always be intent on protecting you and keeping you safe, no matter how old you are.
The good news about fighting with your parents is that in many families the arguing will lessen as parents get more comfortable with the idea that their teens have a right to certain opinions. It can take several years for parents and teens to adjust to their new roles, though. In the meantime, concentrate on communicating with your parents as best you can.
Sometimes this can feel impossible — like they just don’t see your point of view and never will. But talking and expressing your opinions can help you gain more respect from your parents, and you may be able to reach a compromise that makes everyone happy. Keep in mind, too, that your parents were teens once and that in most cases, they can relate to what you’re going through.
【小题1】Why do parents always want to control their children?

A.They are afraid to lose their children.
B.They want to protect their children.
C.They don’t believe the ability of their children.
D.They can’t accept their children are growing.
【小题2】 What does the underlined word “lessen” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.disappear.B.increase.
C.strengthen.D.decrease.
【小题3】The author suggested that teenagers ____.
A.fight with their parents bravely for their rights
B.obey their parents without any doubt
C.communicate with their parents actively
D.persuade their parents in as many ways as possible
【小题4】 It can be inferred from the passage that ____.
A.most parents will give in while fighting with their children
B.the conflict between parents and teenagers can be solved
C.the only way for teens to get freedom is to leave home
D.only few parents do well in facing the growth of their children

Scientists have transformed men’s minds into a virtual(虚拟的)woman’s body in an experiment that could throw light upon how humans distinguish themselves form others.
In a study at Barcelona University, men wore a virtual reality headset that allowed them to see and hear the world as a female character. When they looked down, they could even see their new body and clothes.
The “body-swapping” effect was so convincing that the men’s sense of self was transferred into the virtual woman, causing them to react to events in the virtual world they were immersed(沉浸). “This work opens up another avenue for virtual reality, which is not just to transform your sense of place, but also your sense of self,” said Mel Slater, “If you can temporarily give people the illusion that their bodies are different, then the evidence suggests it also affects their behavior and the way they think. They can have new experiences: a person who is thin can know what it is like to be fat. A man can have an experience of what it’s like to be a woman.”
During the experiment, a “female” approached and hit the face of the character another man was playing. “Their reaction was immediate,” said Slate. “They would take in a quick breath and maybe flinch(退缩). The more people reported being in the girl’s body, the stronger physical reaction they had.” But in all cases, the feeling was temporary and lasted only as long as the study.
The study shows that our minds have a very fluid picture of our bodies. The research is expected to shed light on the puzzle of how our brain tells the difference between a part of our own body and something else in the wider world. Thus the work might improve the conditions for those who have experienced strokes by placing them in a world that helps them to use their bodies to the full again.
【小题1】How can a man’s mind get into a woman’s body?

A.by distinguishing themselves from women
B.by taking part in an activity actively
C.by wearing a special device(设备)
D.by transforming his sense of place
【小题2】Of the following statements, which we can’t infer from the passage?
A.Men in the experiment can temporarily have the wrong feeling that they are women.
B.When hit, the men in the virtual world will react angrily to it.
C.As soon as the experiment is finished, the men will return to the normal state
D.Probably, this study can be applied to medical fields and benefit humans.
【小题3】What is the author’s intention of writing this passage?
A.to introduce an interesting and advanced study
B.to inform us of the latest development of virtual reality
C.to illustrate the importance of virtual reality
D.to build up our confidence to fight stroke

Many people have heard stories of the California gold rush during the 19th century, when lots of people went there in search for gold. Panning (淘洗) for gold has a rich and interesting history. Nowadays some people continue to pan for gold in California. Although it cannot be regarded as a method for earning income, taking on gold-panning as a hobby can give you a feeling of being in the old west and get you out into nature.
The only tool that is required to pan for gold is a gold pan. You can use a regular old flat pan, but “officially” gold pans are quite cheap so you may as well buy one that is made for the task. Most sold pans come in either plastic or medal.
Once you have your pan you will want to start practicing your gold panning technique. Panning for gold works because gold is much heavier than most rocks. To pan for gold you add rock and dirt form the bottom of a stream to your pan and then gently let water flow through the pan. The lighter-weight rocks are slowly swept away while any gold will be left behind in the pan.
To start panning for gold, first you will need to find a good location. Try checking maps of your area and old history books to find location where there were gold mines in the past. Even though most of the gold have already been removed, there are likely to be small leftovers that you can find. Once you have found an area that looks promising, look for any small stream or river where you can try out panning for gold.
Panning for gold requires patience and it may be a long time before you hit anything of value. However, it is an enjoyable hobby and provides a great opportunity to get outdoors, so don’t give up too quickly.
【小题1】What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?

A.Where to pan for gold.
B.How gold-panning works.
C.What tools are needed.
D.A promising area for panning.
【小题2】What is the author’s attitude toward modern gold-planning?
A.Opposed.B.Indifferent .C.Positive.D.Neutral .
【小题3】In which part of a newspaper would you probably find this article?
A.Lifestyle.B.Health.C.Travel.D.Sports.
