A cancer-stricken British teenager said on Thursday she had been moved by messages of support from around the world after writing an online Bucket List of things she wanted to do before dying.

Alice Pyne, 15, created an Internet blog in which she described her fight against a cancer of the white blood cells. Ive been fighting cancer for almost four years and now I know that the cancer is gaining on me and it doesnt look like Im going to win this one, she wrote.

【题目】Living and dealing with kids can be a difficult job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even more complex.

If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important. With any relationship, you need to let other people know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart (疏远). When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesnt solve anything.

Communication begins with the concerns of others. It means that you cant just come home from school, go up to your room and ignore everyone. To keep a good relationship, you must keep communication, even if its just by writing a note.

When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that youll listen to what they have to say, but ask them politely to listen to you. Yelling or walking away only makes the situation worse.

This is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didnt. She was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, not giving Sophie a chance to explain why she was late. Later, they kept calm and listened to her. Communication is the key factor here. If Sophies parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.

【2】What is the main idea of the second paragraph?

【3】Which is the key to a happy relationship?

B. They should be equal.

C. Parents play the leading part.

D. Both make the opposite know their anger.

B. Sophie is very polite to her parents.

C. Sophie did well in explaining her being late.
