People always think about “the problem of youth”. If there is one which I take leave to doubt- it is older people who create it, not young themselves. Let us get down to fundamental s and then the young are after all human beings people just like their elders. There is only one difference between and old man and young one: the young man has a beautiful future before him while the old man a splendid future behind him and maybe that id where the rub is.
When I was a teenager, I felt that I was just young and unknown that I was a new boy in a hug w school, and I would have been very pleased to be regarded as something so interesting as a problem. For one thing, being a problem gives you a certain identity, and that is one of the thing s the young are busily engaged in seeking.
I find young people exciting .they have and air of freedom, and they have not a dull promise to mean ambitious or love of comfort .they are not anxious social climbers, and they have no devotion to important things .all this seems to me to ling then with life, and the origin of things .it’s as if they were some sense of cosmic beings in violent and lovely contract with us suburban creatures. all that is in my mind when I need a young person .he may be too proud, ill-mannered or self-satisfied, but I do not turn for protection to boring clichés about respect for elders as if age were a reason for respect .I accept that we are equals, and I will argue with them, as an equal, if I think he is wrong.
72. By “problem of youth” people mean the problem ______
A. caused by young people B. need to be solve d by young people
C. young people meet D. created by the old for the young
73. The underlined word “rub” id closest in meaning to _____

阅读下列短文, 从所给的四个选项中, 选出最佳答案
Have you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it ?Are you afraid to ask someone for a date?
Many people are afraid to assert themselves．Dr．Robert Albert, author of “Stand Up, Speak Out, and Talk Back”, thinks it's because their self-esteem is low． “Our whole set-up is geared to make people distrust themselves, ” says Albert．“There’s always a superior around : a parent, a teacher, a boss---who knows better． These superiors often gain when they ship away at your self-image．”
But Albert and other scientists are doing something to help people assert themselves．They offer “Assertiveness Training”courses, “AT”for short．In the AT course people learn that they have a right to be themselves． They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so．They learn to be aggressive without hurting other people．
In one way, learning to speak out is to overcome fear．A group taking an AT course will help the timid person to lose his fear．But AT uses an even stronger motive---the need to share．The timid people speak out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels．
Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-image．If someone you face is more “important” than you, you may feel less of a person．You will start to doubt your own good sense．You go by the other person’s label．But, why should you?AT says you can get to feel good about yourself．And once you do, you can learn to speak out．
(1) The problem the writer talks about is that ______．
[ ]
A．some people buy things they don’t want
B．some people are afraid to speak out for themselves or to talk back
C．there are too many “chiefs” and not enough “Indians．”
D．some people don’t think highly enough of themselves
(2) The cause of the problem talked about in this passage is that ______ ．
[ ]
A．some people have a low self-image
B．there is alway someone around who “knows better”
C．salesmen talk people into buying things they don’t want
D．people don’t share enough
(3) The effect of our set-up on people is often to ______．
[ ]
A．make them distrust their own answres to problems
B．make things more favourable for “superiors”
C．keep them from knowing as much as their “superiors” know
D．help them to learn to speak up for their rights
(4) A good title for this passage could be ______．
[ ]
A．Stand Up, Speak Out, Talk Back
B．One Way to Overcome Timidity
C．The Problem of Learning
D．Protect yourself and your family
(5) “AT course” means ______．
[ ]
A．a course which helps you to assert yourself
B．a course in which you will learn the usage of prepositions
C．a course in which you will learn to fight against your enemy and your friends
D．a course which teaches you the knowledge of human life

It amazed me that even in his situation of being homeless he was so positive，and his answer would remind me of how blessed I was.A single mother of four amazing kids,with a place to call home and with a job to provide for my kids.Then one day I was called into my boss’s office and was told that I was being laid off due to the economy.Needless to say that on my was home that day I was very sad and upset.I didn’t remember to look for my spare change and keep it ready like I usually did.I wasn’t feeling the joy as I got off the ramp where the homeless man would be.Yet there he was as alway，as l turned the ramp.He set his eyes on me，while still smiling and waving at others.
While I was waiting for the red light to turn，he strolled over to my car.He had a big smile he looked me straight in the eyes and said “today I will give you a dollar”.He then reached into his pocket and pulled out a dollar bill.I was blown away.I burst into tears.I wanted to jump out of my car and hug him！
