  If you think a Web site designed especially for complaining(抱怨)sounds unique, then think again.If you have a complaint, there are hundreds of sites that allow you to get it off your chest.Sites exist for complaining about such things as defective(有缺陷的)products, government inefficiency, and offensive advertising.There are even sites where you can complain about anything that bothers you, including love, family, or just the weather.These Web sites won't actually do anything about your problem; they just let you blow off steam.Here's a sampling of complaints people have written.

  1.Something I can't stand is pencils! They need to be sharpened after every page you write.And then don't you hate it when they start to make a scratching noise?

  2.Have you ever noticed that in most schools you have chairs with armrests to write on attached to the right-hand side of the chair only? Where are the desk for left handed people? It's very uncomfortable for us“lefties”to use these desks made for right-handed people!

  3.I see red every time I get my credit card bill from the bank.There's always a check for a large amount attached with an invitation to sign it and spend it on“anything I want.”I have enough sense to tear it up and throw it away, but I bet a lot of people don't.They don't realize that when they use the“free check”, the expense gets put on their credit card bill.Boy, they must be surprised when they get that bill! I think that banks shouldn't be tempting(引诱)people with those checks.

  4.It isn't fair that the U.S.dominates the Internet! I go to fill in a request for a catalog or a prize or a free offer, and I find it's limited to residents of the United States.I live outside the U.S., and it's frustrating(使人沮丧的)!

It is natural for young people to blame their parents for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained (抱怨), more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways;that they always want to control them; that they do not trust them to deal with problems; and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships.

Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes, hairstyles, and music. Actually this is not what they really intend to do.They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music or clothes or hairstyles make their parent angry, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are better,at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste.

Sometimes you do not obey orders,and are proud because you do not want your parents to say yes to what you do. If they do, it looks as if you are unfaithful to your own age group. But in that case, you will probably think that you are the underdog: you can’t win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parent’s control. If you plan to control your life,co-operation can be part of that plan. You can persuade others, especially your parents, into doing things the way you want. Get them to feel your sense of responsibility (责任) and initiative (进取心) so that they will allow you to do what you want to do.

1. The first paragraph is mainly about ______.

A.children’s complaints about their parents

B.misunderstandings between children and their parents

C.the control of the parents over their children

D.children’s ability to deal with problems

2. The underlined word “irritate” in this passage is closest in meaning to “______”.

A. to make someone excited            B. to make someone angry

C. to please someone                  D. to comfort someone

3. Children choose to have certain strange clothes and hairstyles because they ______.

A. want to show their existence by creating a culture of their own

B. have a strong desire to be leaders in style and taste

C. have no other way to enjoy themselves better

D. want to make their parents angry

4. Children do not want their parents to say yes to whatever they do because they ______.

A. have already been accepted into the adult world

B. feel that they are better in a small way than the adults

C. are not likely to win over the adults

D. have a desire to be independent
