71   Being angry doesn’t really solve much, but what people do when they feel angry is important. The goal is to calm down and try to solve what is bothering you. This is hard for some kids and adults, too. Instead of calming down, some kids might keep getting more and more upset until they explode like a volcano!

72  Their anger might be so strong that they lose control of their temper. They may act in ways unacceptable and hurtful. People may say that someone has trouble controlling their temper.

73   Some kids might get so angry that they scream at their parents, break something, or even worse , hit their brothers or sisters.  74  However, it’s not OK for a kid to do any of those things .Kids don’t want to act in this way , but sometimes angry feelings can be hard to manage. So what to do?

Well, the good news is that kids don’t just have to keep making the same mistakes over and over again.  75   Imagine your temper as a puppy inside you that needs some training. The puppy is not bad ---- it will probably turn out a great dog. It just needs to learn some rules because, right now, that puppy is causing some problems to you.

A. You can train you temper.

B. You don’t want to cause trouble.

C. Kids should be allowed to express their feelings, even angry ones.

D. Everybody gets angry sometimes.

E. In fact, they usually mean that a kid behaves badly when feeling angry.

F. Instead of thinking of the person you’re angry with, think of something else.

G. Some kids get angry more often or more easily than some other kids.

The so-called post-90s generation has become even much “cooler” than the 1980s group, for they can speak “Martian language”, a difficult code-like language created by themselves. And they probably think it very original and smart.

The idea of this language is to prevent the authorities----parents and teachers from understanding what is said.

Ms. Li, mother of a 15-year-old girl, logged (登录) onto her daughter’s online space and found lines of codes, mixed English, Japanese and half-finished Chinese characters, which looked completely meaningless to her. Her daughter told her that it was “Martian language” and her peers all used it.

The new language is becoming very popular in online spaces--- so much that even some translating software has been created to translate the normal language into “Martian language”.

A 14-year-old netizen, nicknamed “S. Tangguo”, explained that the language could be created by anyone. “At first, I just copied the language from other people’s articles. Later, I began to create some words by myself. I split (拆分)some Chinese characters, or use words that have similar pronunciations to interchange with each other, or even add some English, Japanese or Korean words into my article, and that makes the new language. My classmates all chat in ‘Martian language’. It’s in style and can help us hide our secrets from our parents or teachers.”

Unlike the worried parents, some experts have found positive aspects in the spread of this unusual online language. Wang Haiyong, a psychologist, said that there’s no need to be too worried about the phenomenon. This so-called “Martian language” is just a little hobby of the post-90s generation. On the other hand, the new language can inspire children’s imaginations, which is a good thing. However, Wang also advised teachers and parents to give proper guidance to their children, helping them better distinguish between online language and the normative (规范性的)language of real life.
