Do you often talk with your parents about your problems? When you talk to them, will they believe what you say, listen to you and 【1】 with you?

It has 【2】 to do with both you and your parents. Some parents are easy to talk to, and they are great listeners. But some are hard to walk close to. As communication is a two-way street, the 【3】 you talk can cause different results. So you should follow the  【4】 below.

Be clear. Tell your parents about what you think, feel, and want as 【5】 as possible. In this way, they can know what’s really going on. It will be more helpful for them to  【6】 what you mean.

Make your parents believe you. If you’re  【7】 honest（诚实的）, your parents will believe what you say. However, if you hardly tell them the  【8】, it’s hard for them to believe you.

Try not to 【9】. If you disagree with your parents, can you see things from your parents’ side? If both you and your parents think for each other, you will be able to talk in a  【10】 way. Anyway, they are the persons who love you most in the world. So try not to argue with your parents.

22、The Olympic Games have changed a lot since they were first held in Athens, Greece, in 1896. Back then, winners got silver medals instead of gold ones. Sounds strange, doesn’t it? People thought silver was better than gold. Also, no women ran in the first Olympics, and only 13 countries took part. China was not one of them. But those aren’t the only differences.

The Frenchman Baron Pierre de Coubertin（顾拜旦）was the man who really wanted the Games to start again. His ideas for the modern Olympics came from the Greek Games thousands of years ago. He hoped they would help to bring world peace.

But it took time for the Olympics to become popular. Not many people thought they were good ideas in 1896, so they were put together poorly. Some tourists even ran in races! Today, more than 10,000 people from about 200 countries take part.

In the early years of the Olympics, there weren’t many sports. Most events were track and field, much like in the first Greek Games. Events usually took place in the Panathenaic Stadium（雅典体育场）, and you can still see them today. Players did not wear their countries’ colours in 1896. Their clothes were not like the uniforms people wear today. In fact, players weren’t even picked by their countries back then. They travelled to the Games by themselves and had to use their own money to take part. New sports have been put into the Olympics over time, like badminton and table tennis. Some older games are no longer played, like tug-of-war（拔河）. It would be hard to see all the events at this year’s Games, There will be over 300!

Swimming was different in 1896. There was a 1,200-metre race in the sea. A boat took swimmers into the sea and left them to swim back to land. Sometimes rough water made the race dangerous. The first person ever to win that race was Hungarian（匈牙利的）Alfred Hajos. He seemed happy just to finish. “I just wanted to live. That’s more important than winning.” he said. When people or teams won events in 1896, they didn’t get the same things as now. They got olive wreaths（橄榄枝花环）to put on their heads and silver medals.

【1】In the first Olympics, winners were given ________.

A．gold medals and olive wreaths

B．silver and gold medals

C．olive wreaths and flowers

D．silver medals and olive wreaths

【2】Baron Pierre de Coubertin wanted the Olympic Games to start again because ________.

A．many people thought they were good ideas

B．they became popular in 1896

C．he hoped they would help to bring world peace

D．no women ran in the first Olympics

【3】In the early years of the Olympics, ________.

A．most events were track and field

B．players wore the uniforms people wear today

C．people from about 200 countries took part

D．events usually took place in many other countries

【4】________ is no longer played in modern Olympics.

A．Running

B．Tug-of-war

B．there will be too many events for you to see all

C．the Olympic Games have changed a lot

D．events will take place in the Panathenaic Stadium

23、Do you want to know anything about my staying in America? Well, let me tell you the truth, it is really an eye－opening experience to study here.

In China, I have had English classes five times a week since the fifth grade. However, I didn't know textbook English was very different from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut.

When I first studied English, I was told to say “I am fine.” when people say “How are you？” But in the US, I found that people say “I am good.” or “I am tired.”

One day, someone greeted me with “What's up？” It made me confused. I thought for a moment and then smiled because I didn't know what to say.

Since then, I have discovered more and more differences between Chinese and  the US cultures. To my surprise, the US girls spend a lot of time in burning sun getting a tan(晒黑). However, in China, girls try every possible way to get their skin paler(白的)．

I am also surprised by how hard－working the US students are. In China, schoolwork is almost everything, so we study hard all the time. But here, an “excellent” student gets good grades, does a lot for the public and plays sports or music. The kids here are so talented. I am starting to be sorry that I gave up playing the piano at an early age and that I have never thought about sports.

24、John Brown, an office worker, lives in Washington. He inherited $1,000,000 after his parents died. But he didn’t feel happy at all, because this amount of money upset his life.

He said that the meeting was exciting. “When I met her, I felt very happy,” he said. “I saw that the money was used for a very good plan.
