My parents don't listen. How can I communicate with them?

Communication is hard work. It's often easier to say nothing than to talk things out. But you shouldn't make excuses not to communicate — "They never listen anyway", "We will only end up fighting", or "They will just make fun of me".

    You should also avoid(避免) communication killers. When your parents don't seem to understand you, it doesn't take long for you to form habits that kill communication. Some of these communication-killers are:

The silent treatment. You don't speak at all to your parents.

Just putting up with（忍受） it. You say what you think your parents want to hear, but then go out secretly and do what you want anyway.

Bigger, better, and nicer. You tell your parents how much better your friends' parents are.

Running away. You get so frustrated(沮喪的) that you leave the room or the house to avoid further quarrelling.

    Don't get frustrated or give up. Keep the lines of communication open. Just follow the tips

below.

You must always keep in mind that they are your parents and that you have to respect them. If you make a mistake, admit (承認(rèn)) it, and say sorry. If they do something wrong to you, point it out to them without getting loud or quarrelling with them.

    Listen to what they have to say because parents are wiser about some things and are always trying to protect you. Put yourself in their shoes and when you are talking to them, don't say anything which might be held against you. Don't let your anger put down your character.

Communicate with your parents; don't let the day end without reaching an agreement and make sure that the agreement pleases yourself, as well as your parents. Let it all go; tell your parents how much you love them.

37. Which of the following actions belong to "communication-killers"?

   ①Refusing to talk.

   ②Comparing your parents with others'.

   ③Shouting at your parents.

   ④Running away.

   A．①②③            B．①②④        C．①③④      D．②③④

38. When our parents make a mistake, we should_______.

   A. ask them to say sorry   B. avoid it        C. point it out politely  D. forget it

39. Why should we listen to what our parents have to say?

   A. Because they are always trying to stop us from being hurt.

   B. Because they are our parents and we have to respect them.

   C. Because it will make communication easier.

   D. Because they will be angry if we don't.

40. The last paragraph mainly tells us that_______.

   A. we should understand our parents

   B. we should love and respect our parents

   C. we shouldn't care only about the result of the communication

   D. we shouldn't leave the problem with our parents to tomorrow

I took my 7-year-old daughter to a restaurant by the beach for lunch. When we arrived, I saw JoJo, a rich man in the hotel business. We sat down to chat in an open-air cafe. Suddenly, our conversation was interrupted(打斷） by a stranger, who politely asked to speak to me alone.

　 We stood a bit away from my table. Usually, people who asked to talk to mp told me their

opinions on the shows I hosted. But he was different. He said, “I'm James, the father of a 7-year-old girl who's very sick. Doctors have said that if she is treated in the UK, she will probably become better. I don't have much money. Can you please help me?"

I looked into the man's eyes, which were filled with tears. Then I went to sir back at the table. JoJo asked, "What's wrong? Your face changed." I told him why.

I thought of James and his daughter all the weekend. I even thought of doing a special TV show to collect money for the sick girl. On Monday morning, I was at the office when JoJo walked in, which was surprising because JoJo was so busy. I never thought he would have time to come and see me at the studios.

With a check book in hand, he said, "Please call James and tell him I'll pay for his sick daughter's treatment. I've been married for 35 years, but I'm not lucky enough to have a child. I love children and want to help this child." I called James.

The daughter is living a normal life now and JoJo visits her sometimes. I'm so happy that there're so many good people in this world.

30. The father talked alone with the writer in order to _______.

　 A. ask the writer to introduce him to JoJo 　B. ask the writer for help to save his daughter

　 C. didn't expect JoJo would come for the sick girl

D. was sure he would find a way to help the girl

B. so many people helped the sick girl

C. Jojo came to the studios especially to see him

D. there are good people who are ready to help others

The most frightening words in the English language are, "Our computer is down." You hear it more and more when you are in business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, "I'm sorry,, I can't sell you a ticket. Our computer is down."

"If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket."

"I can't write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so."

　 I looked down the counter（柜臺） and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and looking at the black screen. Then I asked her, "What do you do?"

　 "We give the computer the information about your trip and then it tells us whether you can fly

with us or not."

　 "So when it goes down, you go down with it."

　 "That's right, sir."

　 "How long will the computer be down?" I wanted to know.

　 "I have no idea. Sometimes it's down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There is no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it's down it won't answer us."

　 After the girl told me they had no backup(備用) computer, I said, "Let's forget the computer. What about your planes'? They're still flying, aren't they?"

　 "I couldn't tell without asking the computer."

　 "Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he's flying to Washington," I suggested.

"I wouldn't know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn't take you if you didn't have a ticket."

"Is there any other flight to Washington within the next few hours?"

"I wouldn't know," she said, pointing at the dark screen. "Only 'IT' knows. "IT' can't tell me."

By this time there were quite a few people standing in line. The word spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people left without a word, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage（行李）.

26. What could the girl in the ticket office do for the passengers without asking the computer?
