Dear_Lily，
I understand your situation completely．It's normal to feel stressed in Senior One and have conflicts with parents under pressure．
Here are my suggestions．First，communicate with your parents patiently and tell them your feelings to avoid possible conflicts．Sometimes misunderstanding arises from failing to communicate thoroughly．Second，make a study plan to manage your time better．Time management is an important ability for you to work efficiently．Last，try to relax when you're free．Being in a peaceful mind is healthy to your relationship with your parents．
Wish you a harmonious family relationship．
Yours，
Li_Hua
Ⅲ．【参考范文】
Right_then，Henry_sensed_my_embarrassment．He immediately came to my aid．He pulled up my skirt and skillfully tied the drawstring with a beautiful knot．Seeing what Henry did for me，something deep in my mind began to change．It seemed as if my cold heart began to melt slowly and my annoyance at him gradually gave way to guilt．I regretted having treated him as a stranger．While my mind was wandering，our performance time came．It turned out a great success，thunderous applause filling the whole theatre．
After_the_performance，I_found_Henry_and_tapped_him_on_the_arm_ gratefully．“Thanks，” I said with a grateful smile on my face．I had to admit that but for his timely help，I would have been extremely embarrassed．Without his knotting skill，the performance would have been quite different．“KNOT a problem．You are my sister，” he grinned innocently，saying humorously．Surrounded by the cheerful atmosphere，I felt a flood of warmth of a big family．Maybe it wouldn't be so bad to have a new person in my corner of the world after all．

Ⅰ．阅读理解(共8小题；每小题2．5分，共20分)
A
Years ago it was popular to speak of a generation gap，a disagreement between young people and their elders．Parents said that children did not show them proper respect and obedience(服从)，while children complained that their parents did not understand them at all．What had gone wrong Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared Actually the generation gap has been around for a long time．Many people argue that a gap is built into the fabric(结构) of our society．
One important cause of the generation gap is the chance that young people have to choose their own ways of life．In more traditional societies，when children grow up，they are expected to live in the same area as their parents，to marry people that their parents know and agree to，and to continue the family occupation．In our society，young people often travel great distances for their education，move out of the family home at an early age，marry or live with people whom their parents have never met，and choose occupations different from those of their parents．
In our easily changing society，parents often expect their children to do better than they did: to find better jobs，to make more money，and to do all the things that they were unable to do．Often，however，the strong wish that parents have for their children is another cause of the disagreement between them．Often，they discover that they have very little in common with each other．
Finally，the speed at which changes take place in our society is another cause of the gap between the generations．In a traditional culture，elderly people are valued for their wisdom，but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date overnight．The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds，separated by different skills and abilities．No doubt，the generation gap will continue to be a feature of American life for some time to come．Its causes are rooted in the freedom and changes of our society，and in the rapid speed at which society changes．
1．What is the text mainly about
A．The concept of the generation gap．
B．The reasons for the generation gap．
C．Ways to reduce the generation gap．
D．Attitudes towards the generation gap．
2．In modern society，young people often ．
A．depend on their parents to make a life
B．live with their parents in the same area
C．ask their parents for the best advice
D．have very little in common with their parents
3．What can we infer from paragraph 3
A．Parents should be strict with their children．
B．The generation gap is partly caused by the older generation．
C．Parents couldn't do things well themselves．
D．The young never want to satisfy their parents．
4．Which of the following also causes the generation gap
A．Parents are not strict enough with their children．
B．The young value the old too much for their wisdom．
C．Young people don't have the knowledge of a lifetime．
D．Society develops too fast．
B
Parents and kids today dress alike，listen to the same music，and are friends．Is this a good thing Sometimes，when Mr Ballmer and his 16 year old daughter，Elizabeth，listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy，such as pop culture，he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager．
“I would never have said to my mum，‘Hey，the new Weezer album is really great．How do you like it？’” says Ballmer．“There was just a complete gap in taste．”
Music was not the only gulf．From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations，earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits(轨迹)．
Today，the generation gap has not disappeared，but it is getting narrow in many families．Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago．Now they are comfortable and common．And parent child activities，from shopping to sports，involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood．
No wonder greeting cards today carry the message，“To my mother，my best friend．”
But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents．“There's still a lot of strictness and authority(权威) on the part of parents out there，but there is a change happening，” says Kerrie，a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College．“In the middle of that change，there is a lot of confusion among parents．”
Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these changing roles and attitudes．They see the 1960s as a turning point．Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic(民主的) process that encourages everyone to have a say．
“My parents were on the‘ before’ side of that change，but today's parents，the 40 year olds，were on the ‘after’ side，” explains Mr Ballmer．“It's not something easily accomplished by parents these days，because life is more difficult to understand or deal with，but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now．”
5．Which section in a magazine can you expect to find this passage
A．Literature and Arts．
B．Entertainment and Recreation．
C．Society and Family．
D．Decoration and Furnishing．
6．Which of the following shows that the generation gap is disappearing
A．Parents share more interests with their children．
B．Parents put more trust in their children's abilities．
C．Parents and children talk more about sex and drugs．
D．Parents help their children develop interests in more activities．
7．What is the change in today's parent child relationship
A．More confusion among parents．
B．Less respect for parents from children．
C．New equality between parents and children．
D．More strictness and authority on the part of parents．
8．What is the purpose of the passage
A．To stress the importance of parent child relationship．
B．To discuss the change of the parent child relationship．
C．To describe the difficulties today's parents have met with．
D．To suggest the ways to handle the parent child relationship．

My New Brother
I was in my room，feeling unwilling to head to the community theatre with “my brother” Henry．He had recently been adopted by my parents and I was not in the mood for being on stage with him．
“Kirstie，come here，” my mum called．Following her voice，I found her outside the bathroom，holding a wet book．She gave the book a shake．“Henry's book was in the bathtub．Did you put it there？” She glared at me，something she had never done before Henry came to our home．I hadn't wet his book on purpose．Raindrops fell from my eyes．To make matters worse，she promised to buy him a new copy．My heart ached．Henry was stealing my mother's love．He was ruining my life．
Meanwhile，Henry was nearby，absorbed in working on a complicated rope knot(绳结)，something he liked to do．Why did a boy like him like doing girly work It seemed far from manly(男子汉气概)．
Soon，it was time to set off to the community theatre．As Henry walked ahead of us to the car，my mum took me aside and said in a low voice，“It will be Henry's first time onstage．Be kind to him，honey．” I nodded but sighed(叹气)．I hadn't always found that it was difficult to be kind．But since Henry had moved in，everything felt different．The theatre used to be a special place for my parents and me．With Henry involved，it didn't seem so special any more．
Finally，it was our stage time．My heart beat wildly．I forgot my annoyance at Henry for a while．As we kids lined up，ready to act out our short play，I realized how loosely I had tied the drawstring on my skirt．Sure enough，my skirt began to drop．I could hear the audience laughing．Even though I was wearing shorts under my skirt，I could feel my face burst into flames．However，my hands were full．If only someone could help me out．
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
Right then，Henry sensed my embarrassment．
After the performance，I found Henry and tapped him on the arm gratefully．
