AAAGH! The Generation 90s is coming!

Wearing earphones, using complex Net language and constantly text messaging friends, the Gen-90s following the Gen-80s begin to make their world debut （初次登台）.

Each generation or age group has its own symbols and lifestyle. Read on and judge for yourselves if you fit the Gen-90s group.               

Earphones

These little devices seem to grow on the heads of the Gen-90s. They might lead to MP3, MP4 or MP101 players, giving these young people a plugged-in, cool and perhaps self-addicted look, of course, life is not always music to the ears.     

Martian(火星的) language

They have created their own code-like online language. It’s a mixture of English, Japanese and Chinese that perhaps only Martians can understand. This is an imaginative generation, though they need to be careful to keep it out of their term papers.                

Self-Portrait

Saying “cheese” to their own digital cameras is usual for this generation. A little bit of narcissism （自恋） never hurts anyone. It helps them reflect a little on their own lives. But be aware of the risks of posting private photos online.

Text-messaging

They can type their mobile phones as fast as they can speak. This is a generation that respects efficiency(效率). However, oral communication is important and will never go out of style.

阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。（请注意问题后的字数要求）

Your children are so different-they each have very different talents, skills, and personalities, so it can seem natural to give them labels（标签）. For example, one child may be the “smart one” or the “artist” or the “troublemaker”. Although it is easy to                    , you can be hard for your children.

Downsides of Labels

When kids are given negative（消极） labels they often feel that parents don’t expect or want them to change, and they may feel that they should live up to their negative labels. For example:

The “messy child” may see no reason to try to be neat and tidy when his parents have already defined his role in the family.

The “troublemaker” may feel that any attempt to be good will be ignored.

The “wild child” may think that he or she might as well continue to do crazy things

because parents expect it.

Even positive labels can be problematic as children may feel uneasy to meet their parents’ expectations, and often feel uncomfortable that their parents seem to like them more than a brother or sister.

Avoiding Labels

Remember that each child is unique and has the ability to do many things and act in many different ways.

Focus on the positives. For example, if your child, who always seems to be running late, but gets to the dinner on time, be sure to praise him for being on time.

Don’t let children lock themselves into roles-encourage children to try things they are interested in.
