Sometimes it is hard for teenagers to talk to their parents because they don't understand their parents. But here are four tips that may help.
Find a time to talk with your parents when they are not doing something else,like dishes,working in the office,talking on the phone,putting other kids to bed,etc. If not,their mind will be elsewhere and they will either get angry or not give you their attention.

Make plans .Let's start with what the problems are. Put them on a piece of paper. Now deal with them by yourself. What would you do if you were the parent?Have you done anything that caused them to say no?Did you break a rule?Did you lose their trust?For example,you came home at 11:00,but you should be home at 9:00.Then,find out a way to earn that trust back.
Start with a statement .Calmly,open your meeting with,“You told me I couldn't go to parties on Friday night.” This statement explains the problem you want to talk with
them!Don't say other things.

We use our smart phones to carry out many tasks every day. Many of us have become so reliant on them. However, it is bad for our eyes and health to use too much phone.
A research shows that smart phone owners usually start to use their phones early in the morning. They check personal emails and WeChat. And before they get out of bed, many people often check the weather, read the news, and send a message or two friends. After getting up, they often take photos of food, themselves, and even whatever they can see with their phones, they share their photos with their friends. The research finds that users pick up their phones more than 1,500 times to do different tasks in a week. And the smart phone users are on their phones for three hours and sixteen minutes a day. That is to say, people use their phones for almost one full day each week.
Using phones will take much time and it’s also bad for our health. Many people stay up late to play phones. And mobile phones will influence our sleep. Without using the phones, many people will feel sad. Many owners also find they use their phones without realizing they’re doing so.
How do you think people use their phones too much?
32.The underlined word “reliant” in Paragraph 1 means “__________” in Chinese.

Dear Linda,
I know it’s hard to start a new life in a strange city. However, just staying at home doing nothing but surf the Internet is not good for you. You’d better go out and join in some social activities. By doing this, you can get to know more people around. And it would be a good idea to help others if possible and show them you are open and friendly as well.
With time going on, people will know you better and like to make friends with you.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
