四、阅读理解
A
For many parents,raising a teenager is like fighting a long war,but years go by without any clear winner.Like a border conflict between neighboring countries,the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?
Both sides want peace,but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict.In part,this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it.From the parents’ point of views,the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness.And of course,the teens see it in exactly the same way,except oppositely.Both feel trapped. 
In this article,I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap.The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things.Examples include the colour of the teen’s hair,the cleanliness of the bedroom,the preferred style of clothing,the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school,or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends.Second,blaming,the goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything
goes wrong.Third,needing to be right,it doesn’t matter what the topic is—politics,the laws of physics,or the proper way to break an egg—the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong,for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something—and therefore to command respect.Unfortunately,as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other,they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.

I am a strong believer that if a child is raised with approval,he learns to love himself and will be successful in his own way.
Several weeks ago,I was doing homework with my son in the third grade and he kept standing up from his chair to go over the math lines.I kept asking him to sit down,telling him that he should concentrate better.He sat but seconds later,as if he didn’t even notice he wa
s doing it,he got up again.I was getting frustrated,but then it hit me.I started noticing his answers were much quicker and more accurate when he stood up.Could he be more intent while standing up?
