Has anyone noticed how, with the passage of time, one¡¯s relationship with one¡¯s grown-up daughters and sons becomes changed? I¡¯ve been aware of this for some time but I¡¯m not quite sure how to deal with it.

Take the kitchen sink for example.

Following a family get-together at my place, I walked into the kitchen to find Kate, my daughter carefully cleaning the sink.

¡°Don¡¯t do that; what are you doing that for?¡± I said, unhappy about the hidden criticism.

¡°Mum,¡± she said, ¡°you really ought to put your glasses on when you clean the sink. Behind the tap here was black!¡±

But it¡¯s not just things like kitchen sinks. Another time Kate arrived to pick me up to lunch. She looked at me and then asked, ¡°Mum, why do you use brown eyebrow pencil when your hair is grey?¡±

A sudden memory of her, aged 14, going to her first mixed party flooded back. She had come in to say goodbye. For a moment I thought she¡¯d been an accident. Both eyes were black. I remember suggesting that perhaps a little less eye make-up might be more effective.

Now I told her, ¡°My hair used to be brown.¡±

¡°It looks absurd.¡±

¡°Mrs. Menzies had dark eyebrows with grey hair.¡±

¡°Yes, but you¡¯re not Mrs. Menzies, are you?¡± she said triumphantly, as if that proved her point.

But a recent event made me realize that something really must be done.

She had returned some for a few weeks before getting married. One evening I went out on a dinner date. By the time my companion left me at the front door, it was about 2am. As I stepped in, an angry figure in a white nightgown stopped me.

¡°Well, what time of night is this to be coming home?¡± she shouted. ¡°Where have you been? I¡¯ve been worried sick!¡±

Shades of the past come back to disturb me. But what should I do about all this? Nothing, probably. Maybe, after all, it¡¯s only a stage young people are going through.

The daughter thought her mother didn¡¯t clean the kitchen sink well because of her        .

There is no excuse for not doing your assignments£¨×÷Òµ£©. If you can¡¯t come to school, you should call your teacher or your classmate and ask about homework. It is your responsibility£¨ÔðÈΣ©to find out what homework you have missed. It is not the teacher¡¯s job to remind you of the missed assignments.

You must not be absent on a test day. If you are seriously ill, call and let the teacher know you will not be there for the test. If your teacher allows a make-up test£¨²¹¿¼£©£¬you should take the test within one or two days after you return to class. Serious illness is the only reason for missing a test.

Be on time! It is impolite to be late. Also, it bothers other students. If you must come in late, be sure to do it quietly. Have your books and papers out of your bag before you come into the room. Then go to your seat and sit down quietly. In the USA, it is not necessary to knock before you enter the classroom. Most teachers will give you a low grade if you are often late.

In America, you should call your teacher by his or her last name instead of ¡° teacher¡±. Also you should use Mr, Miss, Ms or Mrs before the last name ( such as Mrs Smith or Mr Jones). This is polite. The teacher will tell you the title that he or she likes. It is impolite in the USA to eat, drink or chew gum during class. Don¡¯t do these until the break. Also, removing your shoes in the classroom is not polite.

What should you do if you miss a class?

A. Give an excuse for missing the assignments.

B. Tell the teacher you can¡¯t come to school or do the assignments.

C. Ask your teacher to remind you of the missed assignments.

D. Call your teacher or your classmate to find out what assignments were given.

When can a student miss a test according to the passage?

A. When he / she is late for the test.

   B. When he/ she is really sick.

   C. When he / she failed another test.

   D. When he / she doesn¡¯t want to have the test.

In America, if your teacher¡¯s name is Susan Black, what should you call her politely?

A. Ms Black      B. Ms Susan      C. Susan Black      D. Teacher Black

Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. A student is thought to be impolite when he / she takes off his / her shoes in

 the classroom.

B. A student is thought to be impolite when he / she eats and drinks in class.

C. When a student is late for class, he / she must knock before he / she enters the

classroom.

Aaron LeMieux loves to hike and often listens to the radio at the same time. While on a 1,500-mile hike ¡¾Ð¡Ìâ1¡¿ _______ the Appalachian Trail, Aaron started thinking about energy. Could the energy his body was creating be used to charge an electronic device? In 2006 Aaron quit his job ¡¾Ð¡Ìâ2¡¿ ________ turned the basement of his home into a laboratory. He then put all his time ¡¾Ð¡Ìâ3¡¿________ developing the nPower PEG.
PEG means personal energy generator(·¢µç»ú). ¡¾Ð¡Ìâ4¡¿________ uses the energy you create while moving to charge a hand-held device. Just put your nPower PEG in your bag, ¡¾Ð¡Ìâ5¡¿________ fasten it to your leg or bicycle. Then plug your MP3 player, cell phone or digital camera into your nPower PEG¡¯s USA port. LeMieux¡¯s company, Tremont Electric, claims ¡¾Ð¡Ìâ6¡¿ ________ nPower PEG can charge most hand-held electronic devices to 80 percent in one hour.
Since it costs US$149, the nPower PEG won¡¯t appeal to everyone with its price so ¡¾Ð¡Ìâ7¡¿ ________. But for those ¡¾Ð¡Ìâ8¡¿________ spend a lot of time with electronic devices powered by batteries, it might come in handy.

Dear Peter,

Thanks very much on inviting me to your birthday party on Sunday. I¡¯d like very much come but I will had an examination on Monday morning. It is a very important exam but I can¡¯t afford to fail it. I¡¯ll spend all the whole weekend reading and prepare for it. So I¡¯m really sorry that I won¡¯t be able to come in this time. Hope you can understand. I¡¯ll take this chance to wish you wonderful time on your birthday. Happy birthday, Peter, and many happy return of the day!

Yours,

                                Li Ming
