For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?
Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit .any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped. In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents
and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn’t matter what the topic is – politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg --the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority--someone who actually knows something --and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress
55. Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict?
A. Both can continue for generations. B. Both are about where to draw the line C. Neither has any clear winner D. Neither can be put to an end 56. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.
B. The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict C. The teens accuse their parents of misleading them.
D. The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.
57. Parents and teens want to be right because they want to ________. A. give orders to the other B. know more than the other C. gain respect from the other D. get the other to behave properly 58. What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows? A. Causes for the parent –teen conflicts. B. Examples of the parent –teen war. C. Solutions for the parent –teen problems. D. Future of the parent-teen relationship.

only wear old-fashioned clothes is now favouring the same high street looks worn by those half their age.
Professor Julia Twigg, a social policy expert , said ,―Women over 75 are now shopping for clothes more frequently than they did when they were young in the 1960s .In the 1960s buying a coat for a woman was a serious matter . It was an expensive item that they would purchase only every three or four years — now you can pick one up at the supermarket whenever you wish to .Fashion is a lot cheaper and people get tired of things more quickly. ‖ Professor Twigg analysed family expending（支出）data and found that while the percentage of spending on clothes and shoes by women had stayed around the same—and 5 or 6 per cent of spending—the amount of clothes bought had risen sharply.
The professor said,“Clothes are now 70 per cent cheaper than they were in the 1960s because of the huge expansion of production in the Far East. In the 1960s Leeds was the heart of the British fashion industry and that was where most of the clothes came from, but now almost all of our clothes are sourced elsewhere. Everyone is buying more clothes but in general we are not spending more money on them.”
Fashion designer Angela Barnard ,who runs her own fashion business in London ,said older women were much more affected by celebrity(名流) style than in previous years .
She said, ―When people see stars such as Judi Dench and Helen Mirren looking attractive and fashionable in their sixties, they want to follow them. Older women are much more aware of celebrities .There’s also the boom in TV programmes showing people how they can change their look, and many of my older customers do yoga to stay in shape well in their fifties. When I started my business a few years ago .my older customers tended to be very rich, but now they are what I would call ordinary women .My own mother is 61 and she wears the latest fashions in a way she would never have done ten years ago.‖
59. Professor Twigg found that, compared with the 1960s, __ _____. A. the price of clothes has generally fallen by 70％ B. the spending on clothes has increased by 5% or 6% C. people spend 30% less than they did on clothes
D. the amount of clothes bought has risen by 5% or 6%
60. What can we learn about old women in terms of fashion？ A. They are often ignored by fashion designers. B. They are now more easily influenced by stars.
C. They are regarded as pioneers in the latest fashion.
D. They are more interested in clothes because of their old age.
61. It can be concluded that old women tend to wear the latest fashions today mainly because . A. they get tired of things more quickly B.TV shows teach them how to change their look C. they are in much better shape now D. clothes are much cheaper than before 62. Which is the best possible title of the passage?
A. Age Is No Barrier for Fashion Fans B. The More Fashionable, the Less Expensive C. Unexpected Changes in Fashion D. Boom of the British Fashion Industry

Have you winterized your horse yet? Even though global warming may have made our climate more mild, many animals are still hibernating(冬眠). It’s too bad that humans can’t

hibernate. In fact, as a species, we almost did.
Apparently, at times in the past, peasants in France liked a semi-state of human hibernation. So writes Graham Robb, a British scholar who has studied the sleeping habits of the French peasants. As soon as the weather turned cold people all over France shut themselves away and practiced the forgotten art of doing nothing at all for months on end.
In line with this, Jeff Warren, a producer at CBC Radio’s The Current, tells us that the way we sleep has changed fundamentally since the invention of artificial (人造的) lighting and the electric bulb.
When historians began studying texts of the Middle Ages, they noticed something referred to as ―first sleep‖, which was not clarified, though. Now scientists are telling us our ancestors most likely slept in separate periods. The business of eight hours’ uninterrupted sleep is a modern invention.
In the past, without the artificial light of the city to bathe in, humans went to sleep when it became dark and then woke themselves around midnight. The late night period was known as ―The Watch‖ It was when people actually kept watch against wild animals, although many of them simply moved around or visited family and neighbours.
According to some sleep researchers, a short period of insomnia (失眠) at midnight is not a disorder. It is normal. Humans can experience another state of consciousness around their sleeping, which occurs in the brief period before we fall asleep or wake ourselves in the morning. This period can be an extraordinarily creative time for some people. The impressive inventor, Thomas Edison, used this state to hit upon many of his new ideas.
Playing with your sleep rhythms can be adventurous, as anxiety may set in. Medical science doesn’t help much in this case. It offers us medicines for a full night’s continuous sleep, which sounds natural; however, according to Warren’s theory，it is really the opposite of what we need. 67. The example of the French peasants shows the fact that ________. A. people might become lazy as a result of too much sleep B. there were signs of hibernation in human sleeping habits
C. people tended to sleep more peacefully in cold weather D. winter was a season for people to sleep for months on end
68. The late night was called ―The Watch‖ because it was a time for people______. A. to set traps to catch animals B. to wake up their family and neighbours C. to remind others of the time D. to guard against possible dangers 69. What does the author advise people to do ?
A. Sleep in the way animals do. B. Consult a doctor if they can’t sleep. C. Follow their natural sleep rhythm. D. Keep to the eight-hour sleep pattern. 70. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To give a prescription for insomnia. B. To urge people to sleep less.
C. To analyze the sleep pattern of modern people. D. To throw new light on human sleep. eople‖ is our first policy. (stress)

I still remember how nervous I was on my first day in the new school three years ago, when I found it difficult to follow my teacher in the first English class. The teacher spoke English throughout the class, which was totally different from the lessons I had taken before.
