三、阅读理解

A

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

    Communication 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 is 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 (拒绝) 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!

4.If there’s really a generation gap between you and your parents, you’d better           .
A.have a talk with them often B.keep away from them
C.agree with them all the time D.tell them your values
5.From the passage we can learn that               .

B

In some Western countries, many children do chores to get pocket money. They usually start to do this when they are ten years old.

School students have to do homework and study for tests. They don't have much free time on weekdays. They often do chores on weekends.

Young kids only do easy chores. So they don't get much money. But that's enough. Many of them only want to buy candy. And candy is cheap. They often help do the dishes, sweep the floor or feed the pet cat or dog.

When they get older, they want to buy more and more things. They want things that are more expensive than candy. So they have to work harder. They often help their parents wash the family car, cut the grass or cook meals.

Some jobs are a good way for kids to learn new things. For example, they can learn how to use a lawn mower(割草机) or cook. Of course, their parents help them at first.

根据要求, 完成下列各题。

回答问题：

1. How do many children get pocket money in some Western countries?
2. When do many children usually begin to do chores in some Western countries?

六、书面表达

答案：

We Should Do Chores at Home

     Now many students don't like doing chores at home. There are mainly two reasons. One is that they think it’s their parents’ job to do chores at home. The other is that they think doing chores takes up their time for study. But I think we should help do chores at home because our parents are busy with their work and are often tired after work. I often do chores at home, like making the bed, watering flowers, cleaning the rooms, taking out the rubbish and doing the dishes. I think doing chores is relaxing. I also feel great to help my parents.
