As parents we like to make sure that our children are eating well and getting all the nutrients they need. Children need two to three kinds of vegetables every day.

A simple way to get our children to eat vegetables is by eating them ourselves. Following our example, they may start eating vegetables themselves. Don’t say things like, “If you eat your vegetables, you can have dessert. ”The methods work for a little while but can possibly lead them to hate vegetables more. Give your children new varieties of foods which will help them develop a taste for trying new things.

Sometimes the simple things just don’t work. We have to start becoming a little creative to make our children eat vegetables. By doing this in the beginning when children are small, we will help them learn to love vegetables.

Think of creative ways to help children eat vegetables. For example, cut up vegetables like carrots, cucumbers and place them in a creative way on a plate for an afternoon snack. Or try using cheese sauce either by dipping the vegetables in it or by putting the cheese right on top of cooked or raw （生的）vegetables.

If you prefer, you can also add a teaspoon of sugar on top of cooked green beans and peas to make them taste a little sweeter. Doing this shouldn’t lead to a sweet tooth as long as you only give them a small amount.

If you have children that refuse to eat vegetables, some of these suggestions I’ve listed will help to turn that around. In the end, you’re not only just getting them to eat vegetables, you’re also helping them to live a healthier lifestyle.

    46. The underlined word “them”（in Paragraph 2）refers to “_________”.

    A. foods                B. vegetables          C. cheese              D. nutrients

    47. According to the passage, all the following ways to get children to eat vegetables are creative EXCEPT __________.

A. preparing carrots in an attractive way

B. adding some cheese sauce to vegetables

C. putting cheese on top of vegetables

D. making vegetables much sweeter

    48. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Children need to eat vegetables every day for their health.

B. It’s necessary to think of creative ways to make children eat vegetables.

C. Sugar can make children keep a healthy diet.

D. Parents should help children live a healthy lifestyle.

    49. If you want your children to develop the habit of eating vegetables, you should ______.

A. set an example to them

B. be very patient to them

C. give dessert to them as an award

D. cut vegetables into different shapes

    50. The best title for the passage would probably be _________.

A. The nutrients that we need every day.

B. How to get children to eat more vegetables?

C. More and more children like eating vegetables.

D. There are many kinds of vegetables for children.

For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict（沖突）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 view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ （青少年）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 quarrel on unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanness 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.
【小題1】Why does the author compare the parent teen war to a border conflict?

A．Both can continue for generations.B．Both are about where to draw the line.
C．Neither has any clear winner.D．Neither can be put to an end.
【小題2】What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?
A．The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.
B．The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.
C．The teens accuse their parents of misleading them.
D．The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.
【小題3】Parents and teens want to be right because they want to__________.  
A．give orders to the otherB．know more than the other
C．gain respect from the otherD．get the other to behave properly
【小題4】What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A．Causes for the parent-teen conflictsB．Examples of the parent-teen war
C．Solutions for the parent-teen problemsD．Future of the parent-teen relationship
