Mrs. Green is a nurse in a hospital in London. She has a lovely daughter. She

    often says to her, "Hey, Baby! Look at you,. looking at me, looking at you looking

    at me." She is going to send her daughter to Grade 1 this September and buy a

    book with 40 pages for her.

Joe enjoys reading picture books about animals.He often buys some new ones.

    Last Saturday he bought a new book. There is such a sentence on the first page:

    "In a heart-warming twist on the ‘I-can-do-anything-you-can-do-better' theme,

    Little Nutbrown Hare goes through a series of declarations regarding the breadth

    of his love for Big Nutbrown Hare."

Tong Tong is five years and two months old now. Her father bought him a story

book for his birthday on July 2. Now he is reading "But as the boy grew older

he began to want more from the tree, and the tree gave and gave and gave..."

Mr. Smith lives in New York City. He has a two-year-old grandson; who likes to

    listen to some stories about animals and read picture books with a hide-and-seek

    adventure and lots of pop-up surprises on every page!

Susan's mother bought her a new book today. In this book, there are many good

bedtime activities---a reappearing little mouse is particularly pesky: By the

end of the little rabbit's goodnight poem, the story has quieted to a whisper,

and the drawings have darkened with nightfall. As you turn the last page, you

can expect a sleepy smile and at least a yawn or two.

The evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young people now get on with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly held image (印象) of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.

An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it has ever been in the past. “We were surprised by just how positive today’s young people seen to be about their families,” said one member of the research team. “They’re expected to be rebellious(叛逆的) and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds: they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. There’s more negotiation(商议) and discussion between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They don’t want to rock the boat.”

So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends.” My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me,” says 17-years-old Daniel Lazall. “I always tell them when I’m going out clubbing. As long as they know what I’m doing, they’re fine with it.” Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees. “Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long as I’d done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.”

Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenager rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A researcher comments, “Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in out social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s when everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to taking it over.”

What is the popular images of teenagers today?

A. They worry about school                B. They dislike living with their parents

A. go to clubs more often with their children      B. are much stricter with their children

There are many ways to find a job. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.
Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.
Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.
Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落伞)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (职业) since it was first published in nineteen seventy.
Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their advantages, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.
