閱讀理解（每小題2分，共20小題，滿分40分）aparents 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 whats 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 whats 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. 56. “the door to his room is always shut” in the first paragraph suggests that the son _. a. is always busy with his studies b. doesnt want to be disturbedc. keeps himself away from his parents d. begins to dislike his parents57. what troubles tina and mark most is that _. a. their daughter isnt as lovely as before b. they cant read their daughters mind exactlyc. they dont know what to say to their daughterd. their daughter talks with them only when she needs help58. whats the meaning of “the wall of silence” in the last paragraph?a. teenagers talk a lot with their friends. b. teenagers do not talk much with their parents. c. teenagers talk little about their own lives. d. teenagers do not want to understand their parents. 59. 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 be patient with their silent teenagers. d. parents should try to understand their teenagers. bwhen i was an official of a school in palo alto, california, polly tyner, the president of our board, wrote a letter that was printed in the palo alto times. pollys son, jim, had great difficulty in school. he was classified as the educationally handicapped and required a great deal of patience on the part of his parents and teachers. but jim was a happy kid with a great smile that lit up the room. his parents knew his difficulties, but they always tried to help him see his strengths so that he could walk with pride. shortly after jim finished high school, he was killed in a motorcycle accident. after his death, his mother submitted this letter to the newspaper. “today we buried our 20-year-old son. he was killed in a motorcycle accident on friday night. how i wish i had known that the last time i had talked to him would be the last time. if i had only known that, i would have said to him, jim, i love you and im always so proud of you. i would have taken the time to count the many blessings he had brought to the lives of the people who loved him. i would have taken the time to appreciate his beautiful smile, his laughter, and his genuine love to other people. “when i put all the good things on the scale and try to balance them with all the irritating (惱人的) things such as the radio that was always too loud, the haircut that wasnt to our liking, the dirty socks under the bed, etc., i find that the irritations really dont amount to much. “i wont get another chance to tell my son all that i would have wanted him to hear, but, other parents, do have a chance. tell your young people what you would want them to hear as if it may be your last conversation. the last time i talked to jim was the morning of the day when he died. he called me to say, hi, mom! i just called to say i love you. you have to go to work now. bye. that day, he gave me something to treasure forever. ”if there is any purpose at all for jims death, maybe it is to make others appreciate life more and to tell people, especially family members, that they should take the time to let each other know just how much they care. you may never have another chance. do it today!60. who was jim?a. the child of the tyners.b. the writers relative.c. the president of a school board. d. an official of a school.61.
