GiveThank the flame for its light, but do not forget the lamp holder

standing in the shade with constancy of patience.

谢谢火焰给你光明，但是不要忘了那执灯的人，他是坚忍地站在黑暗当中呢。 The day of work is done. Hide my face in your arms, Mother. Let me

dream.

白天的工作完了。把我的脸掩藏在您的臂间吧，母亲。让我入梦吧。 While I was passing with the crowd in the road I saw the smile from

the balcony and I sang and forgot all noise.

----------Tagore《 Stray Birds 》当我和拥挤的人群一同在路上走过时，我看见您从阳台上送过来的微笑，我歌唱着，忘却

了所有的喧哗。泰戈尔《飞鸟集》

Family gives us light ,to disperse the darkness of the front; gives us harbor, to enjoy the ease of landing; gives us smile ,to forget the annoyance of life.

The Boy & the pple Tree

.This is a story of everyone.

The tree is like our parents

When we were young, we loved to play with our Mum and Dad...

When we grow up, we leave them…only come to them when we need something or when we are in trouble.

No matter what,

parents will always be there and

give everything they could

just to make you happy.

You may think the boy is cruel to the tree, but that is how all of us treat our parents.

We take them 4 granted we don't appreciate all they do 4 us, UNTIL it's 2 late.

My Family ExperienceThis summer I went to Hainan with my family. I

went with my father, my mother, and my little brother. My little brother had just come back from the US for summer break and he wanted to go to the beach. We stayed for three days. The weather was very hot. We went to the beach everyday to swim. At nights we would walk along the seashore. It was a very relaxing trip.

Turn to your partner and take 5 minutes to talk about an experience you had with your family.

Use the following sentence patterns and the words or phrases from Task 1 to describe the pictures on Page 18 to your classmates.

A-Text-1

The Younger Generation

It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstanding between them. They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they do not trust their children to deal with crises; that they talk too much about certain problems; and that they have no sense of humor — at least in parent-child relationships.

critical blame


A-Text-2

It is true that parents often underestimate their children and also forget how they themselves felt when young.


A-Text-3

For example, young people like doing things on the spur of the moment: it is one of their ways of showing that they can accept a challenge. Older people worry more easily; most of them plan things in advance, at least in the back of their minds, and do not like their plans to be upset by something unexpected.

on the spur of the moment, plan things in advance


A-Text-4

Young people also make it harder for their parents to trust them because they like to shock them. They say things like “Everybody we know drives at ninety miles an hour”, or “We’ve all decided we won’t study for our final examinations—it’s useless.”

trust shock


A-Text-5

Young people often make their parents angry with their choices in clothes, hairstyles and music. This is not their main motive. 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. Ten, if it turns out that their music or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles upset their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste.

motive superior


A-Text-6

Sometimes young people are rebellious and proud because they do not want their parents to approve of what they do. If the parents did approve, it looks as if they are betraying their own age group. But in that case, they are assuming that they are on the weak side: they can’t win but at least they can keep their honour. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough, after long years of childhood, when they were completely under their parents’ control. But it ignores the fact that they are now beginning to be responsible for themselves. rebellious ignore


A-Text-7

If a young man plans to control his life, cooperation can be part of that plan. He can charm others, especially parents, into doing things the way he wants. He can impress others with his sense of responsibility and initiative, so that they will give him the authority to do what he wants to do.

co-operation impress


年轻一代

年轻人常常会挑剔父母，将两代人之间的大部分误解归咎于父母，这种想法是很自然的。他们总抱怨父母脱离现代生活方式，不放心让他们独立面对困境，在某些问题上喋喋不休，缺少幽默感——至少与子女们相处时如此。这些抱怨多少也有些道理。

Translation-1


的确，父母们常低估他们的孩子，也忘记了自己年轻时的感受。

Translation-2


举个例子说，年轻人做事总爱凭一时的冲动。其实这是他们表现自己能迎接挑战的方式之一。长辈们则遇事三分愁，多数人往往提前做好计划，至少也要先想清楚，而不愿让意外情况搅乱自己的计划。

Translation-3


年轻人常使父母感到震惊，这让父母更难以信任他们。他们常说 : “ 我们认识的人开车都飙到九十英里”或是“我们都不打算为期末考试做准备，因为那没用”。

Translation-4


年轻人总在服装、发型、音乐的选择上惹父母生气，但他们并非刻意如此。他们只是感到与成人的世界隔绝，还不为成人世界所接受，所以他们创造了自己的文化和社交圈。如果他们的音乐、语言、服饰或发型让父母烦恼，他们会感到格外开心，至少他们觉得比父母稍胜一筹，他们是时尚与品味的弄潮儿。

Translation-5


有时年轻人表现出反叛和傲慢，希望父母不赞同他们的所作所为。如果父母真的赞同，他们反倒像背叛了自己的群体。但在那种情形下，他们认为自己处于弱势，不可能取胜，但至少能保住自己的尊严。这其实是一种消极的态度，不过也很自然，毕竟在漫长的孩提时代，他们完全生活在父母的掌控之中。可是这忽略了一个事实，那就是他们开始要为自己负责。

Translation-6


年轻人如果计划主宰自己的生活，那么与人合作可作为该计划的一部分。他可以争取别人——特别是父母——按他的意愿行事，可以凭责任感和主动性去影响他们，使他们放手让他做想做的事。

Translation-7

Seven Ways of Successful Parenting

1. Be There Let your child talk. What was his day like? Ask, “How did

that make you feel?” Allow your child to openly express ideas, feelings and worries. Listen. Do not lecture. Encourage your child to express feelings creatively.

2. Be Consistent Establish a reliable routine. A clear and consistent routine

helps a child feel safe, and helps a child learn what is right and wrong. Be consistent!

B-text-1

Reading B Text

3. Let Your “No” Be No If you say “no” to your child, make sure you both

understand what that means and keep to the rule. Then act quickly, firmly and safely when it is challenged. Carry out any threatened punishment. Your child wants to know that your “no” means no.

4. No Secrets Tell your child it is never good to keep a secret that feels

bad or confusing.

B-text-2

Reading B Text

5. Never Hit in Anger Research has shown that hitting your child does not

help, and can do more damage. Try to keep away from hitting your child in anger.

6. No Shouting Allowed Words hurt, too. Do not shout at your child in anger. If

he breaks a rule, tell him what he did wrong and why that makes you angry. Be angry at what he did, NOT at who he is.

B-text-3

Reading B Text

7. Get Away When you feel upset or angry, let your feelings out safely

away from your child. Call a friend over or leave your child with someone you trust. Get out. Do not stay alone with your child when you are overwhelmed. Get help and support.
