Morning and night,Mother Bird is there
Until her baby’s old enough to leave the nest.
Mother Bird, with all her love and care,
Longs to provide her baby with the best.
Often, she worries, from day to day-
Very soon her baby will be full-grown.
Excitedly, it will jump away,
Spread its wings and fly alone.
Yet, she knows, she must let it fly
Over the hills and across the sky,
Under her careful, watching eye.
Look at the poem and answer the questions.

To introduce the topic.
What is the purpose of this paragraph?
1. Does every dinner with your parents seem to turn into a battle? Have your once warm and open conversations become cold and guarded? Do you feel that you just cannot see eye to eye with them on anything? You are not alone. Heated arguments and cold silences are common between teenagers and their parents.
每天的家庭晚餐幻化成激烈战斗?热情开朗的谈话蜕变成冷淡警惕?无论什么事情都夏虫语冰?其实大家都一样。青少年和父母之间,无论是激烈争论,还是冷面以对,都并不少见。
