Young people are often unhappy when they are with their parents. They1that their parents don't understand them. They often think their parents are too strict2 them, and they are never given a free hand. Parents often find it is 3to win their children's trust and they seem to forget how they themselves felt when they were young.
For example, young people like to do things without much thinking. It's one of their ways to4that they grow up and they can do with any difficult things. Older people worry more easily. Most of them plan things ahead and don't like their plans to be changed. When you want your parents to let you do something, you will have better success5you ask them before you really start doing it.
Young people often make their parents angry by the clothes they want, the music they enjoy and6. But they don't mean to cause(引起)any trouble. They just feel that in this way they can be cut off from the old people's world and they want to make a new culture of their own. And if their parents7their music or clothes or their manner of speech, the young people feel very unhappy. In fact, sometimes they don't want their parents to say "Yes" to what they do. They want to stay at home8and do what they like.
If you plan to control your life, you'd better9your parents over and try to get them to understand you. If your parents see that you have high sense of responsibility (责任感), they will certainly give you the right(权利)to do10you want to do.
Dear sir, I ordered a skirt from you last month, but there are some problems with it. First, the color is not as green as it is shown on your website. I understand that the picture does not always show the real color, but it should not be that different. Second, I asked for Size M because it is the size I usually wear. But your Size M is so small that I have to give it to my younger sister. I think you should be more serious about your business. Truly, Susan White |
Dear Ms. White, Thank you for telling us the problems with your order. We hope we can give you better service. We are sending you another skirt with this letter. It is Size L, and its green color is brighter than the one you had. We hope you like it. Our office hours are 9:00 a. m. ——5:00 p. m. Please call us during that time if you have any more questions. Yours truly, Victor Smith |
The wagon train (马车队) traveled for weeks, and Emily was bored and tired—tired of not having a real bed to sleep in. She was bored because there was nothing fun for a girl of her age to do. Mom promised it wouldn't be much longer, but the trip seemed to take a very very long time.
Then, one day, a rabbit caught Emily's eye. Maybe she could catch it, and then she'd have a pet! Emily ran after the rabbit into a small forest behind the wagons, but it disappeared. Emily looked and looked for it, but at last she gave up. She turned to go back, but nothing looked familiar. She started in one direction (方向), but it was the wrong way. Emily tried another direction, but soon found that was wrong, too.
Emily was scared. What if she couldn't find the wagons? What if they didn't realize she was lost and just kept moving farther and farther away from her? What if some wild animals hurt her?
Emily sat on the ground and started to cry... but wait... did she hear voices? She stood up and ran towards them. As she got closer, she heard her mom's voice and the voices of some of the men from the train. Then she could see them. Emily ran as fast as she could, right into her mom's welcoming arms.
Mom carried Emily back to their wagon and put her to bed. Emily was glad she was home. Home was wherever Mom was. She'd never say she felt bored again.
No one can change the weather. Nobody can control the weather. But if we read correctly the signs (迹象) around us, we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what the weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting. For many centuries and in all countries, people have studied the weather and tried to make weather forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. Many people feel in their bones the coming of wet weather, their joints(关节) hurt. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or stormy weather is on the way. They fly low probably because of the insects (昆虫) that they are looking for. If you see a rainbow during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather will become clear and fine, such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle (闪烁) clearly at night, then fine weather will continue. If a fog appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the sunset is mostly red in color, then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy weather will probably come. Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make weather forecasting.
Can you imagine a world without music? Imagine a world without songs to sing along with. Imagine a world without dancing.
There is always a kind of music for every feeling and taste. There is a song for you when you are excited. . There is a song that can show the feeling of being in love and a song for you when you feel angry and lonely. I'm sure there is at least one song in the world that is special to you. The fact is that music attracts (吸引)everyone.
. You don't even need to listen to music playing: you can remember a song in your head as if it is playing out loud. Recently I'm enjoying Spanish flamenco (弗拉门科民歌) music. . I'm taking flamenco dance classes, and I just realize how important the music is. We learn new steps, but we spend a lot of time listening carefully to the music, paying attention to the beat (节拍). To me, flamenco music is an example which defines (决定) how powerful music can be.
