It's not easy being a teenager—nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry，hurt，or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while making him realize that you'll still be there for him when he needs you.
Expect a lot from your child，just not everything. Except for health and safety problems，such as drug use or careless driving，consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something，don't insist he tell you what's on his mind. The more you insist，the more likely that he'll clam up. Instead，let him attempt to solve(解决)things by himself. At the same time，remind him that you're always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager's privacy(隐私)．Never read his mail or listen in on personal conversations. ks5u
Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family's telephone for too long，tell him he can talk for 15 minutes，but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls，but teaches your teenager moderation(节制)．Or if you are open to the idea，allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a parttime job.

No fight can end, and no friendship can move on, until everyone says these little words: I’m sorry. Sometimes, though, they can be difficult to say. __【小题1】
It’s not about winning.
Friendships aren’t like the Super Bowl, and there should never be a winner and a loser. When you start fighting with a friend, it may feel important that you “win” the fight by proving you’re right and he is wrong, or by making him be the first to apologize.
In reality, you’ll BOTH LOSE if you let your fight ruin your friendship, and you will BOTH WIN if you find a way to heal it.
__【小题2】__
You may have heard the expression “His pride stood in the way.” It is usual used to describe a person who is determined to be “right” that he lets an opportunity for happiness pass him by forever. __【小题3】_ Remember: as time goes on, we usually forget who was right and who was wrong in a disagreement, and only remember the sadness of losing a friend.
Take the first step.
Are you sick of fighting? Do you think this fight is just not important enough to ruin your friendship?
【小题4】__ You don’t have to take full responsibility（责任）for starting the fight, or even say that your feelings were wrong. But you should find something you did or said that’s worth apologizing for. Maybe you’re sorry that you let the fight go for so long, or that you overreacted（反应过度）to something your friend did. If you say you’re sorry, it’s like an invitation for your friend to do the same.___【小题5】__
| A．Then try to be the first to apologize. |
| B．Stop thinking about your pride. |
| C．It’s about taking some responsibility for the argument. |
| D．Don’t let this happen to a friendship you care about. |
F. There are some special cases when you shouldn’t be the one to apologize first.
G. Once you’ve both said it, you’ll both feel a million times better.

1.___
After I had spent a week with my English family, I slowly began to understand their English a little better. _2.____ Students in my group are from different cities of Britain and their dialects (方言) are different too! Some of their accents are quite strong and they also have their own words and expressions.
3.____ Before I came to England I had thought that fish and chips were eaten every day. That’s quite wrong! I get rather annoyed now when I hear all the foolish words about typical English food.
I had expected to see “London fog”. Do you remember our texts about it? We had no idea that most of this “thick fog” disappeared many years ago when people stopped using coal in their homes. But the idea to speak about weather was very helpful. 4.___ On the other hand, habits are different. People tell me what is typical British here in London is not always typical in Wales or Scotland5.____
But what is ordinary for all British is that they follow traditions(传统). Probably Britain has more living signs of its past than many other countries. And people have always been proud of having ancient (古老) buildings in capitals, big cities and the countryside.
I will tell you more about Britain in my other letters.
Love from Britain.
Peter
