母亲的茶事 
　　①乡村五月的晨，醒得特别早。仿佛还没来得及揉揉眼，天色便温柔地明亮起来。
　　②想起临睡前母亲说今天该采茶了，赶紧翻身起床。清水洗漱后，素面朝天地向屋后茶园信步而去。
　　③沿着春草丰满的小径向前，向前。晨露盈盈在我穿行游走的身后滴答作响，行不远，就看见母亲拎一小桶埋头在茶树丛中一朵一朵地采摘青茶。天地间罗下薄薄的清雾，空气中漫布着青草、泥土特有的味道，茶树们井然有序地排列着，伸出一只只浅嫩的小手，一定是想抓住这个春天轻灵的羽翼吧!
　　④母亲含笑嗔怪我昨日在旅途风尘仆仆一天，累了，没多睡会，眼神却分明欣喜地巴望一起采茶，多点时间亲近她的女儿。学着母亲的样子，我一边小心翼翼地采摘着鸟舌般俏皮柔嫩的新芽，一边听她细声轻语絮叨着如烟的往事。
　　⑤一场场春雨飘过，茶树喝饱了水，滋滋地直望外冒着青翠的嫩芽，从清明到立夏前都是采茶的季节。那时候，青山茶场的千里茶园里便人声鼎沸，热闹非凡了，远远放眼望去，碧绿葱翠的茶山上星罗棋布地遍撒着一个个俏生生的采茶姑娘。她们如翩翩彩蝶穿梭在一条条绿色长龙间，头带草帽，腰挎竹笼，双手起舞，上下翻飞，一片片，一叶叶，采摘着满垅的希翼和梦想，茶树兴奋地颤抖着发出淅淅沥沥的欢唱。少女时的母亲便是那群茶姑里的一个。以前采茶都是一水的黄花闺女，母亲说，茶是最好“色”的，一个季节下来，那些丰满水灵的女孩子一个个都变得面黄肌瘦，神色憔悴。我一旁听了吃吃地笑，哪里是茶好色呀，分明是采茶的活太艰辛乏味，茶姑们的消瘦大致是劳累所致吧。
　　⑥布谷鸟高声吟唱着不急不慢地巡回在原野，和煦的清风痒痒地拂面而过。说着这些青葱往事时，母亲像往常一样抿嘴笑了。细细看看母亲，她真的老了，那昔日光洁明媚的额角不经意间爬上几道深深的沟壑;清澈的眸子有了些许浑浊;逐渐发福的身体不再灵动妙曼，连采茶也要戴着老花镜才能看清。我暗暗叹口气，心里湿湿沉沉的。不知还能喝多久母亲亲手采摘的茶叶了。
　　⑦吃过晚饭，父亲笑吟吟地问我要不要看茶叶是怎么炒制“出笼”的，他毫不吝啬地夸起母亲的聪明能干，去年只看过一次就学会了自己做茶。灶膛里的豆萁随着划起火柴的青烟熊熊燃起，红彤彤的火舌忽忽地舔着锅底，母亲把我们采了一天的青茶叶一股脑儿倒进锅里，赤裸着双手不慌不忙地翻炒起来。一股浓郁的清香蓦地扑鼻而来，飘飘缈缈地弥漫开去，一时间连满屋的空气都沉醉在沁人心扉的茶香余韵中。
　　⑧杀青、摊青、烘焙，母亲双手不停舞动，翻、揉、捻、搓丝毫都不含糊，那一点头一舒臂的灵活机警好象换了个人似的。我托腮依在灶边，贪婪地吸着，嗅着，陶醉着，铁锅散发的热气合着茶叶袅袅的清香逐渐逐渐盈润着我的心……
　　⑨二个多小时后，茶叶终于烘干焙好，粉墨登场了，簸箕里的新茶条索紧致，纤毫毕现，一共7两有余。望着母亲红肿麻木的手掌，拭着她额头沁出的汗珠，我感动莫名，没成想，每天在手中的青瓷茶碗里舒缓轻舞，婀娜多姿，清香碧纤的茶叶，竟然来得这么艰辛不易。那杯中朵朵盛开的叶片，可是朵朵都凝结着母亲浓浓的爱呀!

Problems
A	B	C
My problem is my parents. They never stop going on about how I should keep my room tidy, keep my hair tidy and wear smart clothes. They even make me do the washing-up after dinner every night! None of my friends have got such terrible parents. What should I do? Helen	My best friend has suddenly turned her back on me and I don’t know why! Last week we phoned each other every day and e-mailed too, and over the weekend we went shopping together and she was fine. But at school on Monday morning she didn’t look at me or speak to me. I don’t know what I’ve done. She now spends all her time with another group of friends. Jane	I have a really bad habit of chewing（嚼）the ends of my hair. I try to stop, but I can’t! My mom is starting to get really angry about it. Have you got any ideas? Gina

Assertiveness is the ability to confidently express your opinions, feelings,attitudes, and rights, in a way that doesn't infringe（侵犯） the rights of others.

    Many of us are taught that it is not nice to consider our own needs above those of others. If someone says or does something that we don't like, we should just be quiet and try to stay away from that person in the future.

    Why is Assertiveness important?

     If you don't know how to be assertive, you might experience:

•Depression - Anger, a sense of being helpless, hopeless, or of having no　control over your life.

•Resentment - Anger at others for taking advantage of you.

•Frustration - Why did I allow that to happen?

     Most people find it easier to be assertive in some situations than in others. This　makes perfect sense. It's a lot easier to hold your ground with a stranger than with　someone you love. But the more important the relationship is to you, the more　ｉｍｐｏｒｔａｎｔ it is to be assertive. Assertive behavior leads to increased respect from others！

      But before you decide to act assertively, you have to decide if you can live

 with the results. Although assertive behavior usually will result in a positive

 response  (积极的回应)，some people 　might react differently.

   How to be effectively（有效地） assertive:

 •Use "I" statements. Keep the focus on the problem you're having. "I'd like to be able to tell my stories without interruption." instead of "You're always interrupting my stories ! "

 •Use facts, not opinions. "Did you know that shirt has a hole?" instead of　"You're not going out looking like THAT, are you?"

 •Express ownership of your thoughts, feelings, and opinions. "I get angry when he breaks his promises. " instead of "He makes me angry. "

 • Make clear and direct requirements. Don't invite the person to say no. "Will  you please?" instead of　'Would you mind．．．?" or "Why don't you．．．?"

•Keep repeating your point. Use a low level and pleasant voice. Don't try to explain yourself.
