The (2) _______ of communication, different views on certain problems and different attitudes towards
5. life may cause the generation gap or even widen it. First, one of the major factors for this misunderstanding between two generations is that parents and children lack communication. Young people (3) _______ reveal their feelings to their parents, and often complain that their parents are out of (4) _______ and that they talk too much about certain problems.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are old-fashioned, possessive and dominant; that they do not trust their children to deal with obstacles; that they talk too much about certain problems and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships. I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young. Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste. Sometimes you are resistant and proud because you do not want your parents to approve of what you do. If they did approve, it looks as if you are betraying your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are the underdog: you can’t win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents’ control. But it ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself. If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of that plan. You can charm others, especially parents, into doing things the ways you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do. 1. What is paragraph 1 mainly about?
6. A. The teenagers' criticism of their parents B. Misunderstandings between teenagers and their parents C. The dominance of the parents over their children D.

A. want to show their existence by creating a culture of their own B. have a strong desire to be leaders in style and taste C. have no other way to enjoy themselves better D. want to irritate their parents 3.

To improve parent-child relationships, teenagers are advised to be . A. obedient B. responsible C. co-operative D. independent X. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. There are many types of family systems around the world. In North America and northern Europe, the nuclear family (with two generations - a father, a mother and one or more children) is often seen as the most typical. In contrast, in most other parts of the world, extended families, which include other family members such as grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins, are seen as the norm. The common view is that the nuclear family has become the norm in many Western societies as a result of industrialization and urbanization. This trend began in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, when people were forced to move to cities to find work in the factories that sprang up during the Industrial Revolution. In the twentieth century, greater industrialization resulted in even more people leaving their large extended families. Urbanization also meant that people lived in much smaller houses, which were not big enough for an extended family. The trend towards nuclear families meant that many of the duties and responsibilities of a family, such as providing food and shelter, cleaning the home, preparing the food, caring for children and their education, and caring for the sick and elderly are no longer shared among the members of the extended family. The parents (or parent) now have to do this, with some help from the state. However, this is the price that people pay for the higher standard of living that may come from living in a city. We may think we know what we mean by a ‘nuclear’ family and an ‘extended’ family, but reality is more complicated than most people believe. Most nuclear families are part of extended families: children have grandparents and, in many cases, aunts, uncles and cousins as well. Part of what makes them ‘nuclear’ is that they live in their own separate household, but it is not the whole story. In Greece or Italy, for example, a nuclear family may live in its own flat, but the extended family may live in the same apartment block or in the same street and family members see each other and even eat together every day. There is at least one more factor to consider. Family members may be separated from each other by geographical distance, but they may have close emotional ties. Even in North America and northern Europe, grandparents usually have close bonds with their grandchildren, and families often travel long distances so .that they can see each other. Grandparents often help their adult children, for example, by cooking and looking after their children in emergencies. In the same way, when
7. their parents become too old to live on their own, adult children may take them into their own homes. As a result, they turn their nuclear family into an extended family. The structure of families changes over time. The effects of urbanization and industrialization are enormous, but they are not the only reasons for the changes. People marry, have children, become widowed, divorce and die. Children grow up and adults grow old. Nuclear families become extended families and extended families become nuclear families. Family ties stay strong or become weak. One thing is certain: in a changing world, the family will continue to change, but ultimately, it is likely to continue to be the basic unit of society. 1.

A. all parts of the world B. most places except North America C. most places except northern Europe D. north America and northern Europe 2. The word "norm" in the passage mostly means _______.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. You depend on all the people closely around to give you the warm feeling of belongingness that you must have to feel secure. But, in fact, the members of all the groups to which you belong also depend on you to give that feeling to them. A person who shows that he wants everything for himself is bound to be a lonely wolf. The need for companionship is closely related to the need for a sense of belongingness. How sad and lonely your life would be if you had no one to share your feelings and experiences. You may take it for granted that there always will be people around to talk to and to do things with you and for you. The important point, however, is that keeping emotionally healthy does not depend so much upon having people around you as upon your ability to establish relationships that are satisfying both to you and to them. Suppose you are in a crowd watching a football game. You don’t know them. When the game is over, you will all go your separate ways. But just for a while you had a feeling of companionship, of sharing the feelings of others who were cheering for the team you wanted to win. An experience of this kind gives the clue to what companionship really is. It depends upon emotional ties of sympathy, understanding, trust, and affection. Companions become friends when these ties are formed. When you are thrown in a new circle of acquaintances, you may not know with whom you will make friends, but you can be sure that you will be able to establish friendships if you show that you really like people. 1. What does paragraph 2 primarily discuss? A. Close link between companionship and belongingness B. How to satisfy other people's needs C. An example of a satisfying relationship D. Difficulties in establishing friendships 2. If you had no one to share your feelings, your life would be _______. A. sad and lonely B. colorfulC. busyD. quiet 3. The warm feeling of belongingness may give you _______. A. happinessB. a sense of humor C. freedomD. a sense of security 4. The ability to establish fine relations with others will keep you _______. A. a lonely wolfB. emotionally healthy C. a young heartD. beautiful 5. You will find it hard to make friends with people _______. A. without pityB. who have few words C. without real love for themD. who are very rich
13. X. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. The benefits of forming friendships with those we meet online are obvious, so why do people still make fun of the idea? Another week, another survey claiming to reveal great truths about ourselves. This one says that (shock horror!) people are increasingly turning online friends' into people they'd think worthy of calling real-life friends. Well, that’s stating the obvious, I would have thought! If there's a more perfect place for making friends, I have yet to find it. However, when surveys like this are reported in the media, it's always with a slight air of “It's a crazy, crazy world!” And whenever the subject crops up in conversation, it's clear that people look down on friends like these. In fact, some members of my family still refer to my partner of six years as my 'Internet Boyfriend.' It's the shocked reaction that surprises me, as if people on the internet were not 'real' at all. Certainly, people play a character online quite often - they may be a more confident or more argumentative version of their real selves - but what's the alternative? Is meeting people at work so much better than making friends in a virtual world? Perhaps, but for some a professional distance between their 'work' selves and their 'social' selves is necessary, especially if they tend to let their guard down and might say or do something they will later regret. And are people really much more themselves at a party than online? Those people disapproving of online friendships argue that the concept of 'friendship' is used loosely in a world driven by technology, in which you might have a thousand online friends. They make a distinction between 'social connections' - acquaintances who are only a click away - and meaningful human interaction, which they say requires time and effort. They note that for many Facebook 'friends', conversation is a way of exchanging information quickly and efficiently rather than being a social activity. With its short sharp updates on what you're thinking 'right now', Facebook has been criticised for encouraging rushed and therefore shallow friendships. This may all have an element of truth. However, I've found that far from being the home of oddballs and potential serial killers, the internet is full of like-minded people. For the first time in history, were lucky enough to choose friends not by location or luck, but by those who have similar interests and senses of humour, or passionate feelings about the same things. The friends I've made online might be spread wide geographically, but I'm closer to them than anyone I went to school with, by a million miles. They are the best friends I have. And for people like me who might be a little shy - and there are plenty of us about - moving conversations from the net to a coffee shop is a much more natural process than people might expect. After having already made friends online, you can get rid of the social awkwardness that comes with trying to make a friend out of someone you don't know at all. You can enjoy their company when you eventually meet, knowing that you have enough in common to sustain the friendship. The benefit is clear - you cut out all the boring small talk. What could be better? Obviously, there will always be concerns about the dangers of online friendship. There are always stories buzzing around such as 'man runs off with the woman he met on Second Life' or people who meet their 'soulmate' online and are never seen again. But people are people are people, whether online or not. As for 'real' friendship dying out, surely social networking is simply redefining our notion of what this is in the twenty-first century? The figures - half a billion Facebook users worldwide - speak for themselves. And technology has allowed countless numbers of these people to keep in close contact with their loved ones, however far away they are. Without it, many disabled or housebound people might go without social contact at all. Call me naive, call me a social misfit, I don't care. Virtual people make the best real friends. 1.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. MANAGING TIME Time management: two words that have me breaking out in a cold sweat. Why should I suddenly have to learn how to manage my time? Surely time had got on perfectly well for several millennia without requiring management, let alone by me. But my university tutor was adamant: time needed some managing and apparently it was up to me to do it. First of all, let’s be clear. I do have plenty of time to manage. As an arts student, I generally have 23 hours in the day that aren’t given over to going to lectures. But I generally need somebody to tell me what I should be writing, so I go to lectures. Perhaps I had “taken on too much”? I’d been elected to four committees, produced a play, applied for a part time job, hung around the college bar with my friends, and written the odd essay. But I thought I was coping well. Sure, there was the day when I did the research for an essay on the morning of deadline day and wrote it that afternoon, but that was a one off. On second thoughts, maybe my tutor is right. It’s difficult to give up what you’re involved in but perhaps it’s a good idea to sit back and have a breather once in a while. Even an arts student has to get down to some real work! 1. What was the writer's initial reaction to his tutor's ultimatum? A. He had to admit that it was sound advice. B. He failed to see how it could help him. C. He had no understanding of what it meant. D. He had tried it before so he knew it would fail. 2. What is the writer's job? A. He's a time manager.B. He's a lecturer. C. He's an arts student.D. He's a university tutor. 3. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as something he had done? A. Producing a playB. Getting a part time job C. Writing an essayD. Head of four committees
18. 4. The writer slowly begins to realize that he should ______. A. spend more time with his friendsB. end his obsession with leisure pursuit C. integrate more into university lifeD. apply himself to the real task in hand 5. The word "breather" in the passage mostly means ________. A. an assignment B. a machine C. a restD. a passion VIII. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. When I tell people about the idea of moving out, many people’s reaction is like, “what do your parents say?” because they assume the parents would not like their children to leave them. Well I don’t know if my parents like it but I can tell you my parents support and respect my decision. They think it is good for me to try and live on my own and then I would know it is the best to stay with my family. The most important reason for independent living is to save the travelling time to work. It used to take me one hour fifteen minutes to travel to work from my previous living place. From my new apartment, it just takes me thirty minutes so I saved forty-five minutes’ traveling time. I don’t have to get up so early and I save two-third of my traveling cost. It does not only save my time to travel for work but also from most of the places in Hong Kong. In addition, I gain my personal space and freedom by independent living. I make my own decision all the time, I do not have to say whether I would go home for dinner, I can invite my friends to come up and stay late. Of course, there are some trade-offs in living on your own. If you want to rent an apartment, there are lots of preparatory work to do. You have to keep visiting the apartments to search for your ideal one. You have to negotiate with the landlord about the price, furniture inclusion, who is responsible for the maintenance of the furniture and equipment. My experience was that after we moved into the apartment, it was not until the kitchen cupboard was soaked with water that we found out there was water leakage in the kitchen sink. Money is the main issue in living on your own. You have to be responsible for all the expenses, for example, the rent, electricity, gas, water, telephone, internet bills, etc. Therefore, you’ve got to be well prepared and save up for your bills. Although I find my transportation time much shorter, the saved time is spent on other things, such as cooking and some other household chores. I think preparing and cooking the food do occupy a significant portion of my time, therefore I always try to make simple meals. On the other hand, I have to regularly tidy up my apartment and wash my clothes, so it doesn’t really save much of my time after all. Now everything is settled down, I’m getting used to my new life and I am enjoying it. I feel that moving out makes it easier for me to strike a balance between my work, my social life, my study and my family. It may be troublesome but it may worth. 1.
