Sometimes teens need to have some time away from their families. They may want to move out of the family for a while.
Many parents will say no to this demand. But experts say it might be a good idea to let your teens live with a friend or relative. “It was the break I need at the time,” said Richard Lerner. He is talking about the time he spent living with his grandmother when he was 15. “It allowed me to be a different person than I was with my parents,” Lerner said. He now heads the Institute for Children, Youth and Families at Michigan State University. Experts say teens living away from their families can test new ways of thinking and getting along with people. They may see new solutions to problems. This is different from running away , the experts stress. Runaways are often fleeing(逃避) serious problems. If there is conflict(冲突) at home, having a teen live elsewhere can benefit other family members. It gives everyone space to develop better relationships. Some teens who wants some time away from family to attend a structured summer program. Others live for a while with a relative or with the family of a friend. Joseph Kett teaches history at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. He says living at home until the late ten years has become the norm(标准、规范) only in recent times. “In the 17th century, children were often sent to live in other people’s home when they were about 10 or 11,” he said. Peter Sheras teaches education at the University of Virginia. He said parents should listen when a child wants to move out. They should try to find out why the child wants some time away. Often, parents can help the child find a safe place to stay during that time. In other cases, they can meet the child’s needs at home.( )1.According to this passage, many parents think it _______for their children to live away from them. A.right??????? B.happy??????? C.unsafe?????? D.reasonable
( )2.When children seriously disagree with their parents, experts suggest that parents should _________. A.punish them??????????? B.let them live away from their parents C.send for a teacher??????? D.keep them in the house( )3.In this passage “structured” means __________. A.built?????????????? B.stuck???????? C.organized???? D.drunk( )4.In history, ???___________________________?. A.teens never left their families ? B.teens often left their parents C.teens never went to school ??? D.teens never make friends with each other( )5.Nowadays living away and running away from home _________???. A.never happen??? ?? B.often worry parents and teachers
C.are popular??????? D.are accepted by people

Then suddenly one day I had an idea, “Why not m 4 reading fun?” It gave me hope a 5 .
Reading is a journey of spirit. Every time we read a book, we are actually t 6 to the writer. I tried to put all my effort into his or her books, so I could feel all of his or her happiness and suffering. Now books have b 7 a part of my life. I do some reading at least two h 8__ a day.
Do you know that attitude (态度) can make a great difference. S 9 once said, “Even though the situation is bad, people still have one freedom (自由) to choose their attitude.” So, don’t complain about(埋怨)study or w 10 . It helps nothing. Try to see things from a different way. Believe me, this will change the situation and help you a lot.

Confidence is very important in daily life. It can help you to develop a healthy attitude (态度). A study shows that the people who are more confident are much happier. They can have more chance to make themselves successful. But how to be more confident? Here are some suggestions:
·Speak loud. When you are not confident, you can’t do well what you want to do. You speak in a voice so low that other people can hardly hear you. Try to speak loud enough so that people can hear you clearly. The high voice can help you become more confident.
·Play sports. It is tiring to do physical exercise, but it can make you completely relaxed. A strong body helps you be filled with confidence.
·Encourage yourself. Write down a list of things you did during the day to see how many things you have done well. Did you finish your homework? Did you tell a joke that made everybody laugh? Give yourself praise for the good things you’ve done.
·Get rid of (消除) fear. Fear comes along with failure (失败). But it’s easy to overcome (克服) if you know that failure is part of your life. Don’t hide your head just because you said something stupid last time. Try to start again and believe you can do better.
· Pick up a hobby. If you like singing, sing as much as you can. In some ways, a hobby can make you outstanding. And it will make you happy and confident.
