Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true.

Communication(交流) 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 advice for you to bridge the generation gap (消除代沟).

Don’t argue (争辩) 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. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go to someplace 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 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 motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, 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!

1.. The passage tells us _______ have a communication problem.

2.. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you _______.

3.. The underlined phrase “cool off” in the passage means “_______”.

4.. If there’s really a generation gap between you and your parents, you’d better _______.

5. From the passage we learn that _______.

“If you want to see a thing well, reach out and touch it!”That may seem a strange thing to say． But touching things can help you to see them better． Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round． But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth* and cool the ball is． You can feel how heavy the glass is． When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it． With your skin, you can feel better． For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins*  in your pocket． You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.
All children soon learn what “Don’t touch!” means． They hear it often． Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up． In shops, we touch things as we might buy: food, clothes． To see something well, we have to touch it.
There are ways of learning to see well by feeling． One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that touching your skin． Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin． At first, it is not easy to feel these things． You are too used to them!
Most museums are just for looking． But today some museums have some things to touch． Their signs say, “Do touch!” There you can feel everything on show． If we want to see better, reach out and touch． Then you will really see!
【小题1】By touching things, ______.

阅读短文，根据意思，判断所给句子的正误。正确的写T，错误的写F。

“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the U.S.A greet（问候） each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual（不寻常的） question. It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks“ How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. They are simply （只）other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”.

　　Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly（确切） what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might think, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong...”But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly（强烈地）, so the other person might say “I’m not sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.

　　People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people.For example, many talks on the phone finish when one person say “I’ve to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up（挂）says: “Someone’s at the door.” “Something is burning (烧)on the stove（炉）.” The excuses（借口） might be real（真的）, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt （伤）the other person.

　　Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, of finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly that they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the game of language.

1.“How are you?” is another way of saying "Hello." or" Hi."

2.It is polite to say" No. I disagree. I think you are wrong, "if you don’t agree with others.

3.When someone says "I have to go now "On the phone，it means he wants to go on talking.

4."Someone is at the door." may be an excuse for finishing a talk.

5.Sometimes people don't say exactly what they are thinking about just because they try to be nice to each other.
