Directions：Read the following passage．Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage．Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．
Teens between the ages of 13 and 19 years old are at the most difficult stage because parents tend to treat them as adults．However, teens are not keen(热切的)to get their homework done, or typically do what they should be doing．While your teens may lack the motivation to help you make a salad for dinner, they don’t lack the motivation to go to the movies, shop with their friends or talk on the phone．
Failure is generally an excellent motivator．Teens are often not allowed to make their own mistakes．They are told what they should do and how they should feel, so they don’t get to explore their own importance．It seems strange that failure should be considered to be a motivator, but it really works because it ties in with responsibility．When teens are allowed to fail and the parents explore the reasons for the failure with input from the children rather than telling them why they failed-teens learn from their mistakes．If they wish for a different outcome in the future, this is how they learn to achieve another outcome, or they will keep making the same stupid mistakes．
Participation is great for motivation – if teens are included in the drawing up of a plan; whether this is for getting their own homework done or managing their time, they will be more motivated to follow the plan．
Teens are not irresponsible because they forget to take out the garbage．
Remind teens with a sense of humor－it is not a life and death situation if taking out the garbage is forgotten; treat it lightly but firmly for a better response．If teens have agreed to a plan, they do need to be responsible, but reminding them to do something does not have to be unkind．A parent can tell a child “I love you” and say no at the same time．

For a small town, Manhattan ,Kansas has some big surprises, And one of them is the Holiday Inn Hotel, with rooms built around a swimming pool and a friendly family atmosphere.
The Holiday Inn is where Manhattan people often go for a special party or a night out. A lot of them choose to eat in the brightly-lit restaurant near the pool. And many of them will be served by Ellen Logan, who has worked as a waitress here for more than two years.
Ellen, like most of the waitresses is also a student. She comes from Nebraska, but she's planning one day to be a veterinary surgeon, and to care for small animals. But in order to support herself at college, she works twenty hours a week at the Holiday Inn.
Ellen soon learns what every waitress finds out. You had better have a good pair of shoes. She paid forty-five dollars for hers, much more than she would usually spend. She's discovered something else, too. You don't have to know much about food be a good waitress, but you do have to know a lot about people.
“A lot of business people always stay here when they come to Manhattan,” she explains. “They like you to recognize them and remember their favorite dishes. But some couples come for a night out together. They just want to be left alone. Then there are people who can't make up their minds. They look down at the menu and say ‘What do you suggest! So I ask them how hungry they are. If they say‘ Not very,’ I suggest the salad bar with soup, salad, bread, and a fruit plate. But if they say they're very hungry, I suggest a Kansas Strip Steak, with potatoes or rice. You get salad and bread as well. It's very nice. Real good value.”
Ellen may get tired feet sometimes, but at least she's learning too much about people. She'll probably make a good animal doctor, but if she finds she doesn't like it after all, she can always become a psychiatrist (心理医生) instead.
