Question

【题目】Parents of teenagers will have heard something like this: Leave me alone or I told you, we didn’t do anything at school. Maybe they’ve had a door or two slammed on them. And maybe they feel that all of their interactions are arguments.

Sarah loves hanging out with her friends. That’s not surprising. Sarah is 16 and it’s typical for teenagers to spend time with their peers, especially their pals. So it makes sense when she gets mad about having to leave get-togethers with her friends early to meet her parents’ rule that she must stay at home after 9 p. m.

“Sometimes my parents don't let me do anything,” Sarah says. “It seems that their rules are for a 10-year-old child, not a 16-year-old one.” Sarah admits she often responds to her parents’ rules by openly complaining about them. And to get her pride again, she sometimes does what she wants behind her parents’ backs.

Sarah’s unwillingness to obey her parents may remind you of your own behavior toward your mom and dad. And the good news for young people is that it is normal for teens to rebel against their parents. “All teens go through a process of separating from their parents in order to gain some independence and a sense of identity,” says John Brightman, a child and adolescent psychologist. “Sometimes this process is accompanied by some anger, defiance(反抗), and eye-rolling. But this stage of shifting relationships is an important part of growing up.”

Answer 1

【答案】

1.As an adolescent, Sarah goes through an unavoidable but significant growing-up process of showing her personality and establishing independence by doing what will annoy her parents to rebel against them, which is a process of separating from their parents and is normal.

2.From my point of view, the reasons for teenagers becoming rebellious to parents are various, among which the need for freedom and independence are the most important ones. As children grow up, they think they are mature enough to make decisions and handle everything themselves. Therefore, they don’t want parents’ interference that makes them feel childlike and confined.

This passage reminds me of my own experience when I was in the rebellious period. At that time, I was unwilling to communicate with my parents no matter what happened. Very often, after I got home, I just shut my room’s door and wrote my diary. Gradually, feeling unusual, my parents began to act like enemies to stop me from going anywhere they thought inappropriate or unsafe. It was this conflict that made us involved in endless complains and quarrels with each other.

From then on, I am aware that it is no use rebelling against our parents and we must deal with this problem and improve the relationship between us. Firstly, we can discuss some interesting things as well as share our true feelings with our parents. Besides, we can also do homework and housework without being asked, which can make them happy. Last but not least, before going out, we should tell them where we are going and promise to go back early so that they will not worry about us. All in all, only if we respect and understand each other can we live harmoniously in a family.
