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!
51.According to the passage, who have a communication problem

C.to have a good rest D.to hide yourself quickly
54.If the values of your parents are different from those of yours, you'd better .
A.argue with them B.keep away from them
C.agree with them all the time D.tell your parents what you care about

Should teenagers go out with friends on weekends
Recently I’ve had a discussion with my parents about whether teenagers should go out with friends on weekends. My parents think that we teenagers should stay at home on weekends. We should go over our lessons. And we should have enough time to have a good sleep. They also think teenagers should help parents do some housework on weekends.
In my opinion, we teenagers should be allowed to go out with friends for fun on weekends, so we can relax more. And we can also share ideas with each other. What’s more, we can also take some exercise together to keep fit.
