题目列表(包括答案和解析)
Language is a way to communicate with each other. We started to learn language when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don’t have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good.
I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesn’t help very much in getting a good job. My aunt taught Korean to her children not to help hem succeed in the U.S. she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation was born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity because they look different from others, and also, if they visit their parents’ country, they will probably feel different from other people there too. My cousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes and walked differently.
We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children understand their background by teaching them the parents’ language. This is very important, not only for the harmony of the family, but also in helping the second generation establish their identity.

You are not the first one in your class to hear the complaints that teenagers nowadays are unruly (难管的) and uncommunicative.
And it is not just your parents’remarks.Teachers in the UK also find it difficult to communicate with their students.And now they are asking：why?
According to a recent survey in Britain，the erosion (消磨) of family life leaves parents less time to teach key social skills such as listening to others，saying “please” and “thank you” and taking turns.“One of the most important factors has been the loss of the family meal，which has reduced family conversation，” said John Dunford，general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders.
Dunford believes family meals are a good chance to stay connected.It’s an emotional and mutual bond based on warmth and trust.“Family meals are a time for sharing thoughts and ideas and problemsolving together，”he says.“Having meals together means parents and teenagers can find the delicate (微妙的) balance between staying connected and letting go.”
Dunford also criticized celebrity worshipping (明星崇拜)，which makes teaching “more difficult than it has ever been”．
Schools are based on the connection between hard work，passing exams and getting a good job.However，worshipping celebrities makes teenagers believe social advancement can be gained through the purchase of a lottery ticket rather than hard work.
“Young people forget that highearning footballers have to train incredibly hard，that successful pop singers have to practice for hours and I think it makes the job of the school more difficult，” says Nick Seaton of the Campaign for Real Education.
