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. 1.“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 2.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 3.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. 4.．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.

Reading to dogs is an unusual way to help children improve their literacy skills（读写能力）. With their shining brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudgmental listeners needed for a beginning reader to gain confidence, according to Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) in Salt Lake City. The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in children, with the introduction of Reading Education Assistance Dogs (READ). The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard reading as a headache.” said Lisa Myton, manager of the children’s department. Last November the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children’s department of the main library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a “pawgraphed” book at the last class. The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April. According to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager. 1.．What is mainly discussed in the text? A．A special reading program. B．Advantages of raising dogs. C．Service in a public library. D．Children’s reading difficulties. 2.Specialists use dogs to listen to children reading because they think ________. A．dogs are young children’s best friends B．dogs can provide encouragement for shy children C．children can play with dogs while reading D．children and dogs understand each other 3.By saying “The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea,” the writer means the library ____________. A．accepts the idea put forward by ITA B．uses dogs to attract children C．has opened a children’s department D．has decided to train some dogs 4.A “pawgraphed” book is most probably _________. A．a book used in Saturday classes B．a prize for the children C．a book written by the children D．a gift from parents
