Your teen is falling asleep in class
Teens have a busy morning schedule as they need to wake up and get moving very early in order to catch a bus and get to school by the required time. This means teens need to get their rest the night before or they will be too tired to learn anything at school.   【小題1】  
When a teen falls asleep in class, two things happen: he/she misses what is being taught and he/she loses the respect of the teacher. He/She may also receive a consequence from the school, depending on the classroom discipline policy.   【小題2】

* Set a time for “l(fā)ights out” on school nights. This is never be any later than 10 p. m. and preferably 9 p.m.   【小題3】  Soft music can be on and used to help calm your teen.                          
* Help your teen develop a nighttime routine that involves activities that slow them down for the end of the day.   【小題4】  Turning off the computer and disconnecting from friends and the excitement of the day an hour before bedtime will also help your teen relax.
* 【小題5】  This will reinforce（增強(qiáng)）what it feels like to be rested and capable of accomplishing what he/she wants.

A．What’s worse, they may even fall asleep in class.
B．Taking a bath and reading are two activities that work well.
C．Set a good example and show him/her your love for learning.
D．Point out the positives after your teen has had a good night’s rest.

Vans, Keds, Dollies—they sound like the names of rock bands, but if you have teenagers, you’ll know they’re actually the latest in teenage footwear.

　 But experts are now warning that the current shoe fashions will be causing teenagers discomfort in the short term and storing up years of foot, knee and back pain in the future.

　 Here, the experts identify the problems caused by teenagers’ shoe choice.

　 KEDS/VANS

　 Slip-on shoes with elastic (彈性的)sides are particularly popular among teenage boys—with Keds and Vans the most sought-after brands.

　 The main problem is that they are just too flat—so flat that the heel, which strikes the ground first, also becomes damaged and painful.

　 BALLET PUMPS

　 The worst shoes of all are such light and thin dolly shoes. The problem is partly their flatness, as with Keds and Vans. However, ballet pumps, which have no string or heel, have other specific problems.

　 “As the shoe has no fastening device, it relies on the toes to keep the shoe on, causing an awkward gait(步法), which leads to short-and-long-term problems such as calluses(繭子), heel and knee pain. ”

　 WEDGES AND STILETTOS

　 These shoes can also cause problems with gait. They may look good, but the heels on these are so high that they can force the wearer’s body weight forward, making them very unstable.

　 Teens who wear these shoes regularly are also in danger of joining those millions of women with constant back pain.

　 SCHOOL SHOES

　 So what do podiatrists(足科醫(yī)生)have on their wish list, especially for everyday wear?

　 Something in a natural, breathable fabric, with a string to hold it on, with a small heel and a deep toe-box that does not press the toes, such as Clark’s, Marks & Spencer or Rhino.

　 If your teen insists on wearing “bad” shoes, get them some simple foot orthotics(矯形器) in the shoes. These support and correct the movement of the foot, and properly fitted by a podiatrist, can often transform their walk and halt the damage.

68. Of all the shoes mentioned in the passage, which can cause the worst problems?

A. Marks & Spencer. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 B. Wedges and Stilettos.

C. Keds/Vans. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 D. Ballet Pumps.

69. Which pair of shoes may not be found on the podiatrists’ wish list?

70. The underlined word “halt” in the last paragraph probably means _______ .

A. increase　　　　　　　　　 B. worsen　　　　　　　　　　 C. stop　　　　　　　　 D. cure

71. In which column of Mail Online can you find this passage?

A. Sports. 　　　　　 B. Science. 　　　　 C. Health. 　　 D. Shopping.

閱讀下面的短文，請(qǐng)根據(jù)文后的要求答題（請(qǐng)注意問題后的詞數(shù)要求）
[1] Teens need independence, but how do you make sure they are safe? It’s tough to decide when to give your teen more freedom. One parent’s decision for his or her teen may not be right for other parents and their teens. Although every child is different, there are many experiences common to the teenage years. The most common may be the pull and push between dependence and independence.
[2] Many teens are putting themselves at risk for committing(從事) acts of violence and other crimes. No wonder so many parents are concerned, even frightened; no wonder so many try to control the behavior of their teenage children. So, it is important for parents to make rules for their young children.
[3] However, as children get older, they need to learn to make some of their own decisions and life choices. Teens need the chance to practice good decision-making skills, and to manage new life experiences. Parents need to try their best to support their children.
[4] Respect is a two-way street but it starts with you, which means that you should give your teens the respect that you would like to be given. Give them praise for their knowledge and abilities; pay attention to and listen to them. That means showing confidence in your teens, and being supportive. Parents should believe in your teens; set high standards for them, encourage them, expect them to achieve their goals, and provide consistent（一貫的；始終如一的）love and support —including practical help—so they can achieve the promise that lies within them.
[5] Teens are learning to take care of themselves as they prepare for adulthood. That’s what growing up is all about. Give them and appropriate（適當(dāng)?shù)模?/i> amount of freedom and independence. Encourage and promote responsibility and good decision—offering support and gentle help with difficult decisions. Let your teens know they will be given _________________ as they show increasingly responsible behavior.
【小題1】Who is this passage most probably written for? (no more than 5 words)
____________________________________________________________________________
【小題2】What’s the common experience of the teenagers? (no more than 10 words)
____________________________________________________________________________

A major source of teen stress is school exams, and test anxiety is not uncommon. When you recognize your teen is under stress, how can parents help your teen stay calm before an exam?

Be involved. Parents need to be involved in their teen’s work. 1._ What they look for is your presence — to talk, to cry, or simply to sit with them quietly. Communicate openly with your teen. Encourage your teen to express her worries and fears, but don’t let them focus on those fears.

Help them get organized. 2.   Together , you and your teen can work out a time—table in which she can study for what she knows will be on the test.

Provide a calm setting. Help your teen set up a quiet place to study and protect his privacy. Give them a nutritious diet. It is important for your teen to eat a healthy, balanced diet during exam times to focus and do her best.  3.    If this happens, encourage your teen to eat light meals or sandwiches. A healthy diet, rather than junk food, is best for reducing stress.

4.    Persuade your teenager to get some sleep and /or do something active when she needs a real break from studying. Making time for relaxation, fun, and exercise are all important in reducing stress. Help your teen balance her time so that she will feel comfortable taking time out from studying to spend time with friends or rest.

Show a positive attitude.  5.   Your panic, anxiety and blame contribute to your teen’s pressure. Make your teen feel accepted and valued for her efforts. Most importantly, reassure your teen that things will be all right, no matter what the results are.

A．A parent’s attitude will influence their teen’s emotions.

B．Exam stress can make some teens lose their appetite.
