There is no question that teenagers need rules, which is often not a difficult thing for parents to give.What can be more challenging is giving teenagers their freedom.It can be difficult to draw the line between the two.However, some issues cannot be changed by discussion and require firm rules.For instance, rules should be established concerning driving the family car.

I will admit that I have no problem coming up with rules.To me they make life easier and they leave no room for questioning.What can be more difficult, however, is giving my teens their freedom.I guess there are really two primary reasons for this.One is that sometimes I am afraid to give them freedom.The second is that I'm not always so sure what the freedom should be.

It helps that I have a husband with whom I can discuss these problems.We talk about them,_give our thoughts and then we come up with an agreement.Sometimes one of us might be more unwilling but we know that there comes a time when we really do have to learn how to let go of the reins(缰绳) a bit.

If we try to make life have nothing but rules, we are more likely to see our teen's rebelling(反抗)．They need to know that while we do have certain expectations, we also trust them to begin making their own choices and decisions.How else can they do that unless they are given the space and room to do it?

It's really all about balance and I will be the first to admit that it can be a challenge to carry out.However, it is a necessary part of growing up.Yes, teens definitely need rules but they also need freedom.

What's going to happen in the future? Will robots take over our planet? Will computers become smarter than us? Not likely. But here are some things that scientists say are most likely to happen 10 to 30 years later from now, according to the BBC.

1．Digital money

We used to pay with cash for everything we bought. Now when we swipe(刷) our bus pass or use a credit card to shop online, money is spent without us even seeing it. In fact, we are already using one type of digital money.

You have to admit that using a card is much easier than searching your pockets for change. It is also safer than carrying a lot of cash.

When ATM cards were first introduced, they were not accepted everywhere. But now it's hard to live without them. People in Sweden completely stopped using cash last year, according to the Associated Press, and the US might be next.

2．Bionic(能力超人的)eye

It's no longer something only in a sci?fi movie. People who are blind may have a chance to get their sight back—by wearing bionic eyes.

A blind eye can no longer sense light, but a bionic eye can use a camera to “see” the environment and send data directly to the brain.

Although the bionic eye that's out now only allows patients to see lights and unclear shapes, a high?resolution(高清晰度的) version could be just a few years away.

3．Self?driving cars

Everything is going automatic these days—washing machines, ticket selling machines and even cars. Unlike a human driver, a self?driving car won't get distracted by a phone call, the radio or something outside the window. Sensors and cameras on the car would allow it to stick strictly to the rules of the road and keep a safe distance from other cars. This would greatly reduce the number of road accidents. You could even take a nap while the car drives itself.

Many vehicle companies are now planning self?driving cars. “By 2040, driverless vehicles will be widely accepted and possibly be the dominant vehicles on the road，” said Jeffrey Miller, professor at the University of Alaska Anchorage, US, in Wired magazine.

1.The underlined word “distracted” in the article is closest in meaning to “________”．

A．directed B．discouraged

C．attacked D．disturbed

2.Jeffrey Miller's attitude towards self?driving cars is ________.

A．optimistic B．pessimistic

C．doubtful D．cautious

3.Which section is the article most likely to be found in the newspaper?

A．Learning Kit B．Campus Trends

C．Entertainment D．Technology

We chat with our colleagues all the time when we have lunch, gossip in the tearoom, or leave work together. Sharing your personal life brings you closer to your coworkers and builds trust within your team. But revealing too much about yourself to colleagues, managers or human resources staff can cause difficulties and even endanger your work.

It's important to keep the right balance between getting along with colleagues and maintaining your privacy. “Communication in the office is tricky and complicated. You can neither spread chatter, nor be too silent and shut yourself off from others，” said Yang Yudan, deputy HR director at P&G.

According to her, there are several safe topics to talk about with colleagues during the break, such as the weather or movies. Women like to talk about makeup and clothing, while men are fond of sports and online games. But discussing your private life, such as relationship, habits or health conditions, is a potential minefield.

Liang Kun, 26, had to resign from his job at a trading company in Guangzhou last week after discussing his income with colleagues during a lunch break. “I didn't realize it was such a serious issue until a senior member of staff went to find the boss, asking why I got a higher salary than her，” said Liang. “Then our HR told me that according to the employee handbook it is forbidden to talk about salary in the office.” HR expert Yang also reminds us that paychecks are your own business. It is unwise to share this information with others, no matter how close you are.

To summarize, Yang advises office workers to be more aware of the image they project when talking to colleagues, “When you share your personal life, it will be recorded on your invisible resume and may slow down your career progressing.”

1.The author quoted Yang Yudan in the text to ________.

A．show his admiration for her

2.What can be inferred from the fact that Liang Kun had to resign his job according to the text?

A．It was unwise for him to share information with others.

B．He broke the rules made by the company.

C．He was such an honest person that he told the truth.

D．He treated his colleagues as family members.

3.What is the author's purpose in writing the text?

A．To draw people's attention to their behaviors in public.

B．To advise office workers to be aware of the image they project.

C．To make you believe that communication in the office is complicated.

D．To warn you to be careful of invisible trouble while talking about your privacy to colleagues.

4.Which would be the best title for the text?

A．At Work, Keep It to Yourself

B．Keep the Right Balance

C．Share Your Personal Life with Others
