As children enter their teens, they usually begin to pay more attention to their peers (同龄人) or friends. Peer pressure can be direct or indirect, but it is almost always present. Learning to deal with peer pressure makes a teen mature, and able to get along well with others.
Bad peer pressure is when teens feel pressured to do something that they know is wrong, such as smoking, drinking, or drugs, and it can remain with them into adulthood. This is the main reason teens have to learn how to deal with it.
Some of the things you can do to deal with peer pressure include:
● Choose friends who share your values. Good friends use positive peer pressure to help you be your best self.
● Keep away from situations where people are doing things you don’t want to do.
● Think about your reasons for doing things. Are they good reasons Are you being true to yourself and your values
● Practice ways of saying no, giving excuses if necessary.
● Talk to your parents, or other trusted adults, about the kinds of peer pressure you face, and listen to their advice.
● Let the adults know when you need help to get out of a bad situation, and don’t know what to do about it.
Remember that if just one teen stands up to (对抗) peer pressure, usually others will join him or her. Learning to deal with peer pressure will make you confident and mature.
34. According to the passage, which of the following is true

My wife and I used to feel that it was impossible to be a true friend to someone whose name we didn’t know. How wrong we were! Years of Sunday-morning bus trips through the city with the same group of “nameless” people have changed our thinking.?
Before the bus takes off, we all join in a conversation: where’s the silent woman who sits at the front and never replies to our cheery greetings Here she comes. Her worn clothing suggests she doesn’t have much money to spare, but she always takes an extra cup of coffee for the driver.?
We get smiles from a Mexican couple as they get on the bus hand in hand. When they get off, they’re still holding hands. The woman was pregnant late last year, and one day her change of shape showed that she’d given birth to the child. We even felt a little proud at the thought of our extended family.?
For many months, our only sadness lay in our being unable to establish the same friendship with the silent woman at the front of the bus. Then, one evening, we went to a fish restaurant. We were shown to a table alongside someone sitting alone. It was the woman from the bus.We greeted her with friendly familiarity we’d shown all year, but this time her face softened, then a shy smile. When she spoke, the words escaped from her lips with difficulty. All at once we realized why she hadn’t spoken to us before. Talking was hard for her.?
Over dinner, we learned the stay of a single mother with a disabled son who was receiving special care away from home. She missed him very much, she explained.?
“I love him… and he loves me, even though he doesn’t express it very well,” she spoke in a low voice. “Lots of us have that problem, don’t we We don’t say what we want to say, what we should be saying. And that’s not good enough.”?
The candles flared on our tables. Our fish had never tasted better. But the atmosphere grew pleasant, and when we parted as friends—we shared names.
38. All the following words can be used to describe the woman except ________.
A. cold B. silent C. poor D. shy
39. The underlined word “establish” in the fourth paragraph probably has the same meaning as ________.
A. pick up B. put up C. set up D. come up with
40. Why did the woman usually keep silence while taking the bus
A. She had difficulty in expressing herself.
B. She was worried about her disabled son.
C. She was sad to see the happy Mexican couple as a single mother.
D. She was only interested in the bus driver.
41. Which of the following might be the best title of this passage
A. The Silent Woman on the Bus B. Friends on the Road
C. Going to Work by Bus D. Different Kinds of Friendship

Homeschooling
The concept of homeschooling is not a new one. Homeschooling means educating children at home rather than send them to public or private schools. Nowadays, homeschooling has become popular in many countries for a variety of reasons. One of them is poor quality of education in public schools and it’s also because private schools are quite expensive. Some parents believe that because they know their child’s strengths and weaknesses, they can teach him or her better. Some parents prefer homeschooling so as to prevent their children from getting into bad company. There is another group of people who choose to educate their children at home also think that homeschooling would help in development of strong family bonds(家庭纽带).
However, homeschooling is to some extent not good for students as well as parents.
Homeschooling is a full-time job and not fit for parents who have their own jobs. Other family members’ responsibilities may also be affected. Besides, a parent may have high educational qualifications, but that does not make him or her a good teacher. Teaching is an art, which requires the ability to understand the needs of the children.
In today’s world, competition is seen in every field, and school prepares children to face these competitions. However, homeschooling does not give the children a chance to compare with other kids. They will not be aware of where they stand in educational position among their classmates. Schools also provide children with a chance to take part in various activities to make their overall development better .
It is true that it has many benefits, but one must know that school teaches children skills to face and survive.

67.__________ for the popularity Poor quality of education in public schools and fees (费用) in private schools are not 68. ___________. Children are taught 69. __________at home. Children are kept away from bad company. Homeschooling is 70. __________in developing strong family bonds
