Most teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members, and their parents in particular, don’t know them as well as their friends do.

It is very important for teenagers to have a good friend or a circle of friends. Even when they are not together with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking with them on the phone. This communication is very important in children's growing up, because friends can discuss something that is difficult to talk with their family members.

Mona was scared, and she shouted very loudly. Finally someone came to the door. It was the librarian, Miss Molly. She said, “Don’t worry, let me help you!” Mona was very happy to see Miss Molly. Mona went upstairs and found everyone in the library looking at her.

All around the world, people drink tea. But tea doesn’t mean the same thing to everyone. In different countries people have very different ideas about drinking tea.
In China, for example, people always serve tea when they get together. The Chinese drink it at any time of the day at homes or tea houses. They like their tea with nothing else in it.
Tea is also important in Japan. The Japanese have a special way of serving tea called a tea ceremony. It is very old and full of meaning. People must do everything in a special room for it in Japanese homes.
Another tea-drinking country is England. In England the late afternoon is “teatime”. Almost everyone has a cup of tea then. The English usually make tea in a teapot and drink it with cream and sugar. They also eat cakes and little sandwiches at teatime.
In the United States people drink tea mostly for breakfast or after meals. Americans usually use tea bags to make their tea. Tea bags are faster and easier than making tea in teapot. In the summer many Americans drink “iced tea”. Sometimes they drink iced tea from cans, like soda.

I’m an outgoing girl and I love sports very much. Last month, I moved to Bayside. I used to think Brooklyn is a faraway place, but in fact it is a day trip from where I am. I heard that it was a wonderful place. Then I found Get Up And Ride, a bike tour through six different Brooklyn neighborhoods along the East River led by Felipe Lavalle. Felipe Lavalle started the company (公司) last June.
The Bike Tour of Brooklyn is available from 11:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Thursdays and Saturdays. Our tour was on North 12th Street in Williamsburg. After a quick check on the bikes and radio headsets (耳机), through which we could hear Felipe’s introduction (介绍) of the neighborhoods, we started our trip. We went through old factories in Greenpoint, stopped for a piece of pizza at Best Pizza in Williamsburg, and biked on our way to Brooklyn Grange. We also stopped at Brooklyn Bridge Park to take photos and passed the Brooklyn Roasting Company, a famous coffee shop. We ended the four hours’ tour on the East River Ferry. We started our way back to the tour’s starting point at 3:00 p.m.

　Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not munication 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 (代沟).
　Don’t argue 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 some place 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 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!
