Many arguments teenagers have with their parents are about one thing: independence. As you get older, you’ll want to do more stuff on your own, without your mom and dad tagging along with you. The arguments generally start when your parents think you aren’t ready for extra responsibility while you think you are. Arguing with your parents isn’t the best solution at all, but the best solution is gaining trust from your parents. 1.
●Understand that it’s not your parents who do not want you to have independence, they want the best for you and think you’re not ready or you’ll hurt yourself if you have the freedom to do whatever you want. Show your parents you can be sensible. 2.If you can’t get home by 9:30, they’ll never let you out after 10:00.
●Agree with them some “friends time” and some “family time” so that they know you won’t be spending your whole weekend out with your friends. 3.They won’t imagine you getting into trouble if they know how they are.
●4. They won’t feel much worried letting you go off on your own if they know what you’re up to. Call in and tell your parents that you’re OK from time to time. The less they worry about you, the more independence you’ll gain.
●5.If they find out, all that trust will be destroyed and then you'll never get the extra independence you ever wanted.
A. Show your parents how independent you are.
B. Never lie to your parents about where you’re going.
C. Remember to ask for your parents’ help if you need it.
D. Always tell your parents where you are, and who you’re with.
E. Generally speaking, they won’t be worried about increasing your independence.
F. And before you enjoy the “friends time' introduce your friends to your parents.
G. Agree a time you’ll be home with your parents, and always make sure you keep to it.

I have just returned from a visit to my landlord, Mr. Heathcliff. I am delighted with the house I am renting from him, which suits me perfectly.
Mr. Heathcliff is my only neighbour, and I think his character is similar to mine. He does not like people either.
When I introduced myself, he said nothing, but frowned, and did not encourage me to enter. After a while, however, he decided to invite me in.
“Joseph!” he called. Joseph was an old servant. He looked crossly up at me as he took my horse. “God help us! A visitor!” he whispered to himself. Perhaps there were no other servants, I thought. And it seemed that Heathcliff hardly ever received guests.
His house is called Wuthering Heights. The name means “a windswept house on a hill”, and it is a very good description. The trees around the house are bent by the north wind, which blows fiercely every day of the year. Fortunately, the house is strongly built, and is not damaged even by the worst winter storms.
Mr. Heathcliff and I entered the huge main room. We sat down by the fire, in silence.
“Joseph!” shouted Mr. Heathcliff. No answer came from the cellar, so he dived down there, leaving me alone with several rather fierce-looking dogs. Suddenly one of them jumped angrily up at me, and in a moment all the others were attacking me.
“Help! Mr. Heathcliff! Help!” I shouted. My landlord was nowhere to be seen, but luckily a woman, who might be the housekeeper, rushed into the room to calm the dogs.
“What is the matter?” Mr. Heathcliff asked me rudely, as he finally entered the room, accompanied by his man-servant.
“Your dogs, sir!” I replied. “You shouldn’t leave a stranger with them. They’re dangerous.”
“Come, come, Mr. Lockwood. Have some wine. We don’t often have strangers here. I’m afraid neither I nor my dogs are used to receiving them.” I could not feel offended after this, and accepted the wine. We sat drinking and talking together for a while. I suggested visiting him tomorrow. He did not seem eager to see me again, but I shall go anyway. He seems a fascinating man.
1.In which order should the following events be arranged?
a. Mr. Lockwood introduced himself to his landlord.
b. Mr. Lockwood and Mr. Heathcliff sat drinking and talking together.
c. Mr. Heathcliff invited Mr. Lockwood into the house.
d. Mr. Lockwood was attacked by some dogs.
e. Mr. Lockwood and Mr. Heathcliff sat down by the fire, in silence.
f. Mr. Heathcliff appeared in the main room with Joseph.
A. a, c, f, b, d, e. B. c, a, b, e, d, f.
C. a, c, e, d, f, b. D. c, a, f, e, d, b.
2.Why did Joseph say “God help us! A visitor!” when he met Mr. Lockwood?
A. He was very shocked to have a visitor.
B. He thought Mr. Lockwood was a new servant.
C. He had waited for Mr. Lockwood for a long time.
D. He was happy his prayer for guests was answered.
3.Why is the house called “Wuthering Heights”?
A. It is struck by strong winds all the year round.
B. It is protected well by the trees surrounding it.
C. The trees around it are bent by the north wind.
D. It is specially designed to resist strong winds.
4.What was the writer’s impression of Mr. Heathcliff?
A. He was rich but foolish. B. He was rude but interesting.
C. He was handsome but boring. D. He was strange but friendly.

Chinese writer Mo Yan’s Nobel Prize for Literature might ignite an explosion of global interest in Chinese literature and lead to more titles translated into English, European experts say.
“Hopefully, the award means more people will read Chinese literature and more works will get translated,” says Michel Hockx, professor of the Languages and Cultures of China and Inner Asia from University of London. “Many very good Chinese writers have been accepted globally for a long time already. Mo Yan is probably the most translated Chinese writer alive, with at least five of his novels made available in English over the past 20 years.”
Jonathan Ruppin, web editor of bookseller Foyles, says Mo’s win coincides with growing interest in Chinese literature and recognizes the talents of a distinctive and visionary writer. “We are very excited by the fact that English translations of more of his books should now become available,” Ruppin says. He made the comment after Mo became the first Chinese citizen to win the Nobel Prize for Literature in its century-long history.
As East-West cultural exchange has been booming, Chinese literature has been attracting growing attention in recent years. Hockx explains, “It’s mainly because there are many more opportunities for Chinese writers to visit other countries, to publish their works outside China and to interact with readers abroad. At the same time, more and more people globally are learning Chinese and taking an interest in the Chinese language and culture .”
University of Oxford lecturer in modern Chinese literature Margaret Hillenbrand says, “The obvious reason for the growing global presence of Chinese literature is the growing global presence of China itself. People have come to realize that there is a serious knowledge deficit between China and its international counterparts — in particular,China knows incomparably more about Europe and America than the other way round— and reading Chinese literature is an effective, simple means of solving that gap.”
1.The underlined word “ignite” in Paragraph 1 probably means “________”.
A. start out B. burn up
C. set off D. appeal to
2.Chinese literature has been attracting growing attention mainly because ________.
A. Chinese writers have been writing more and more books in English
B. the Chinese language has become the most wide used language in the world
C. the Chinese government attaches great importance to literature
D. the cultural communication between China and western countries has developed
3.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. Chinese literature has spread with the development of China.
B. The Nobel Prize for Literature has a history of hundreds of years.
C. In the past, no Chinese writers were accepted outside China.
D. Foreigners know about China mainly by reading Mo Yan’s works.
4.How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
A. China knows more about Europe and America than before.
B. China knows more about Europe and America than they know about China.
C. China, Europe and America know one another more than before.
D. Compared with America, China knows more about Europe.
