Anyone who has ever traveled with a teenager knows that the teenager can make the vacation good or bad for the entire family. As a travel agent, Lynda Maxwell said, “If teenagers are happy, everybody is happy.”
Teenagers are often interested in travelling, but their interests and schedules often aren’t the same as their parents’. It means that when the parents start to look for a place of interest in the early morning, their teenagers may be sleeping soundly!
The thing makes travelling with teenagers very difficult, but it isn’t impossible. The experts said, “The keys to success is what parents do before they travel.”
For many families, the hardest part may be finding a vacation time that is right for everyone. Be sure to sit down with everyone else in the family before setting a date.
“After setting a date, ask teenagers where they would choose to go,” suggested Maxwell. It is possible that they’d like nothing more than to sit on a beach for a week. “Maybe there’s a compromise(折中),” said Maxwell.
“Most teenagers like using the Internet now, so parents can ask them to think up the ideas about what to see and do,” said Brad Anderson. “I find teenagers are excellent at making great suggestions.”

Carpooling is a group of people sharing the responsibility(责任) of driving to school in the morning. There are usually four or five kids in a carpool and their parents take turns driving the kids in their cars.It might be the kids’ first experience with real teamwork.

The Vieira family moved to the United States in 1981. At that time, they decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English－speaking country.
Now the Vieira children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunately this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is－a mistake because there are many benefits to knowing more than one language.
One advantage of speaking more than one language is that you can communicate directly with more people around the world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so you're more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.
Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person's understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.
Finally, having more multi－language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countries can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each other's problems.
The benefits of knowing more than one language are clear. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people don't try to learn another language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.
【小题1】What is the passage mainly about?
| A．The benefits of learning other languages. |
| B．The reasons why people come to America. |
| C．The importance of learning English. |
| D．How to learn another language. |
| A．discuss the need for teaching a new language |
| B．introduce the passage's main characters to the readers |
| C．describe the advantages of moving to another country |
| D．show the problems of speaking only one language |
| A．their mother language | B．a new language |
| C．more than one language | D．body language |
| A．Not knowing another language. |
| B．Forgetting one's mother language, |
| C．Refusing to learn another language |
| D．Failing to communicate with others. |

Below are some suggestions given by the English children posted on the website about how to help Africa. Which do you think is the best?
| I think health is the most important thing. We need to make sure that the money we give is spent wisely. The money should be spent first on clean water supplies and better health care. Robin, aged 16, Birmingham |
| I think the most important thing is to improve the education of the African countries. There is an old saying, "If you give a man a fish, you'll feed him for a day. If you teach him how to fish, you'll feed him for a lifetime." We need to help themselves, not just throw money at the problem when it appears. Rebecca, aged 15, Liverpool |
| People seem to give a lot more money to charity when there is a sudden, huge disaster（灾难）like the earthquake. It's good for people to do so, but I also think that everyone should give a small part of their salary（工资）to charity. If everyone did that, it would make a big difference. Mary, aged 14, Stratford-on-Avon |
| Giving money to charity can help, but it's not the final answer. I think what these countries need is a good government. Bethany, aged 16, Newcastle |
| The best thing we can do is to send experts（专家）like engineers, doctors and teachers to help the people to help themselves. Robert, aged 16, Cardiff |
| A．Mary and Rebecca | B．Bethany and Mary |
| C．Rebecca and Bethany | D．Rebecca and Robert |
| A．Mary | B．Robin | C．Rebecca | D．Robert |
