11、s into the room. The garland was the first to come down. The tree looked naked already. I took the large ornaments off next. They made a large pile on our bed.

14、s of young giggles (咯咯地笑) on Christmas morning and a smiling face when they handed them to me when I came home from work. “Look what we made, Daddy!“Oh! It is beautiful.

15、re back in the garage, the room was vacuumed (用吸尘器清扫) and I sat staring at a barren (空荡荡的) corner. The room seemed so empty.

At about 15, many teens become introspective and moody. They start thinking about how they feel about themselves an
33、d figuring out how this matches or mismatches what others think of them. Most teens work through this phase (阶段) by the age of 16 or 17.Often teenagers are treated like slightly bigger children, but young adults will never become independent and responsible if they are not allowed to make some decis
34、ions for themselves. The role of a parent must change from that of protector and keeper to that of friend and guide.Even the most caring parents misunderstand their children sometimes, and some think of teenagers as insecure, stubborn and disrespectful. As a result, teenagers can distance themselves
35、 from their parents. Teens often complain that their parents repeat the same things over and over again. Parents must understand that teens need to be allowed to present their side of any problem and express their point of view.If parents forbid their child from doing something, chances are that the
36、y will do it behind their backs anyway. Teens who deal best with their problems usually have parents who take time to listen and discuss, parents who respect them and who are respected in return. If parents remain calm, teens will do the same. This will encourage more open, level-headed communicatio
37、n.Praise is a good thing too; teens are not always the best at accepting compliments, but that doesnt mean they dont need them. Parents need to make sure that praise is meaningful.It is especially important that parents watch for signs of depression, such as noticeable changes in grades, eating and
38、sleeping habits. These could be symptoms of stress and even alcohol or drug use.Every parent should try to schedule time to be alone with their child, whether going shopping or to the movies, or taking a walk in the park or a short trip. This time allows parents to talk and listen without interrupti
39、on from work or other family members. It might also be good to encourage teens to discuss important issues at dinner. Discussion time shows teens that parents are interested in them and their lives.Finally, parents must accept that teens may not want to talk about everything. Their need for privacy
40、should be respected and they must feel and see that their parents are there for them.A persons teenage years are a time for them to identify their own values and learn to justify and defend them. Handling and improving communication with teenagers is not easy, but success will be rewarding for paren
41、ts and teens alike.29. What does the underlined word “introspective mean?A. stubborn B. disrespectfulC. sure about oneself D. analytical about oneself30. To make their children independent and responsible, parents are advised _.A. not to forbid them from doing thingsB. not to keep a distance from th
42、emC. to allow them room for growthD. to praise them whenever it is necessary31. Whats the benefit of parents spending time alone with children?A. They can respect each others privacy.B. They can easily notice signs of depression.C. They can talk about everything they want.D. They can communicate wit
43、hout being interrupted.32. What is the main point of the article?A. Advice for parents to deal with teenage years.B. How teenagers communicate with parents.C. The characteristics of teenage years.D. The difficulties of teenage years.(D)This week, researchers who looked through the results of five re
44、cent studies on the link between staying seated and health outcomes came out with a new conclusion: sitting for more than three hours per day cuts about two years off your life expectancy (预期寿命).They added that watching more than two hours of TV per day will cut your life expectancy down another yea
45、r or so. An even bleaker (无望的) discovery? Moderate exercise doesnt seem to offset the effects of this excessive sitting either.“Its not just about getting physical activity in your life, lead author Dr Peter T Katzmarzyk of Pennington Biomedical Research Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, told Busine
46、ssweek. “Just because youre doing 30 minutes of physical activity, what about the other 23.5 hours. Dont just sit the rest of the day.The study, published in BMJ Open, follows a long line of unsurprising “sitting is bad for you literature, emphasizes that increasingly sedentary (久坐的) lifestyles are
47、a deserved topic of major focus in recent years.Previous studies have already told us that staying perched (坐) on our derrieres (臀部) all day isnt great for our health, linking lots of illnesses from cancer to diabetes and more to staying seated for any number of hours per day.So whats the solution f
48、or those of us whose jobs involve lots of sitting time in front of a computer, writing an article about how its bad to be seated in front of a computer?The good folks over at HuffPo tried out a treadmill (跑步机) desk last summer. Standing desks are gaining popularity too.There are also some little things you can do every day, like taking the stairs instead of
