Many teenagers don’t get along well with their parents and they don’t know what to do. If you face such a
problem, what I’m saying now might be 11 (help) to you.
Have you ever thought of 12 (talk) to your parents to find out why you don’t get along well with each other When I was a teenager, I didn’t get on well with my parents, 13 . We sometimes argued with each other. I am sorry that I had such 14 experience. Now I’m a mother of four girls. Of course, we have different opinions, but I encourage them to communicate with me openly and honestly. In this way, I make sure
that they trust me and come to me for anything. As a 15 , we get along very well.
Arguing with your parents will 16 (certain) make them angry and you won’t feel good. Also, remember that the most important thing is to solve problems and 17 (silent) will only make the situation worse. Try your best to be calm. If you cannot control your 18 (feel), you can go to a doctor or your
teacher who could give you advice on your problem.
Remember that your parents love you. Sometimes they do something that you can 19 (hard) understand. For example, you may want to be an 20 (art) in the future, but your parents want you to
do something else. If so, try to think in their shoes.

Why do parents have such a hard time 21 (communicate) openly with their teens For this, there are many reasons but most of them come from not being able to properly understand their teens. It is a dangerous gap because parents will have to communicate with their teens about a wide variety of issues ( 事情) during 22 (important) years of their lives. Thus, parents must know how to communicate openly with their
teens.
Here are a few tips to make communication much 23 (easy) between parents and teenagers.
Try not to look down upon your teens. Make them feel as if their views really matter, which not only helps
your discussions with your teen but 24 (bring) you closer to him.
Imagine what it would be like 25 (be) a teen. Try to remember some of the negative ( 负面的)
feelings you 26 (experience) as a teenager and apply it to your teen’s situation.
Avoid 27 (make) negative remarks to your teen about what she has said or done.
Remember how much 28 (encourage) it would have taken for your teen to come and talk to you
about his 29 (person) issues. So listen respectfully.
Don’t ignore ( 忽视) your teen’s feelings because it is usually a cry for help. For instance, if your teen is 30 (usual) angry, it may be time to spend a bit of quality time with your teen to decide what is wrong
and where he is coming from.
It is, therefore, necessary for parents to struggle to keep lines of communication open at all times with their teens. Try to remember what it was like to be a teenager and how vulnerable (脆弱的) you felt. Then you will be
well on your way to help your teen communicate more openly.

I’m sure you already know that you should go to bed at a reasonable hour. Most experts agree that the proper number of hours is eight, and this 32 (accept) as common sense for as long as I can remember. However, I was young once and I know that most of you get much 33 (little) sleep than that—and sometimes this affects your schoolwork. I read an article in a teachers’ magazine recently. They 34 (do) a research of 848 students in Wales.
Worryingly, the results suggested that teenagers are facing 35 new problem. They may go to bed and get
up at times 36 (proper) but a growing number wake up in the middle of the night.
According to the article, schoolchildren suffer (遭受痛苦) because of an increasing trend (趋势) to wake up during the night to check social media. Afraid of 37 (miss) a message or chance to take part in a 38 (discuss), teens wake up at all times of the night to go online and join up with social groups. All this
happens when they should be sound 39 (sleep).
So, I’d like to ask you to be responsible when it comes to social media. Be brave and turn 40 your phones and computers at night. The world won’t end and your social media will be waiting to greet you in the
morning.
