　　My personal opinion is that there is a built-in mechanism(机制) for teenagers to start to be annoyed by their parents at around the age of 12 when they become “cool”. The parents’ reaction is then negative because they are now hated instead of being admired. Most parents can’t deal with this situation and it drives them crazy. Half of parents get tired and give up all the rules, while the other half become so strict that the kids begin to hate them.
　　If parents want to help their teenager get through it they need to understand what is going on which nearly all parents DON’T . This ensures that both parties will fail each other and generally cause annoyance, stress and ill will!
　　On the other hand, the teenager needs to understand the insecurity(不安) the parent feels as the teenager increasingly has a mind of his or her own. Sure, the kid has never done anything wrong and when the parents make improper rules or start calling that teenager certain qualities that he or she has never had, the teenager’s natural reaction is to fight bacckily for parents, teenagers’ first reaction is rarely to hurt their parents deeply. However, they will do other things, such as drinking, tags, and having poor performance in school as revenge (报复) for the words and actions of their parents. What neither side understands is that they are hurting themselves and each other and the only cause is lacking the ability to consider things calmly for both sides. Therefore, keeping calm is the first step.

　　A. Why parents and teenagers fight. B. Why some kids behave badly in school.

　　7.  Some teenagers hate their parents because ____.
　　A. they want to become cool B. their material needs aren’t satisfied
　　C. they want to challenge their parents D. they get too many rules from their parents
　　8.  About the relationship between parents and teenagers, what can we learn?
　　A. There’s no good way to deal with their fighting.
　　B. They should think more for both sides calmly.
　　C. Teenagers should take more responsibility than parents.
　　D. Teenagers are likely to admire their parents after 12 years old.

　　As a kid，I felt my happiness would be based on whether I could fulfill all my needs and wants. If I was rich，I would definitely be content with my life.
　　My father always stressed his belief in happiness. I can remember him lecturing me about how money does not make one happy and how other things in life such as health，family，friends，and memorable experiences make a person genuinely happy. At that time in my life，I did not put any thought into his words as usual.
　　At a young age，I noticed the media seemed to portray(描绘) the wealthy as happy people that add value to our society. At high school I still sought a career that would produce a high salary.
　　After my second year of college，I started my fi
