 Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut.” Joanna noted.

Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to cuddle up (蜷伏)with me on the sofa and talk,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”

Before age 11, children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list.” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years.” Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”

Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’ lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.

“The door to his room is always shut” suggests that the son          .

 A.keeps himself away from his parents  

B.doesn’t want to be disturbed

 C.is always busy with his studies      

D.begins to dislike his parents

What troubles Tina and Mark most is that       .

 A.their daughter isn’t as lovely as before

 B.they don’t know what to say to their daughter

 C.they can’t read their daughter’s mind exactly

 D.their daughter talks with them only when she needs help

Which of the following best explains “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?

 A.Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.

 B.Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.

 C.Teenagers talk a lot with their friends.

 D.Teenagers talk little about their own lives.

.What can be learned from the passage?

 A.Parents are unhappy with their growing children.

 B.Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.

 C.Parents should try to understand their teenagers.

 D.Parents should be patients with their silent teenagers.

It’s not easy being a teenager(13至19歲青少年)—nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you you’ll still be there for him when he needs you.

Expect a lot from your child, just not everything.Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving; consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’t insist he tell you what’s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ll clarn up. Instead , let him attempt to solve(解決)things by himself. At the same time, remind him that you’re always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager’s privacy (隱私). Never read him his mail or listen in on personal conversions.

Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation(節(jié)制). Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part –time job

The main purpose of the text is to tell parents _____________.

A. how to get along with a teenager

C. how to understand a teenager
