Most people have the good fortune to be raised by caring parents, who give them not only their love but also their time spent in doing various things for them. However, many who love their parents have trouble finding the time to spend with them that they know they deserve(值得). Well, here are some ideas.

●A family meal

For those who live within less than an hour’s travelling distance from their parents, a weekly get together around the dinner table is really not too much to ask. It can be at your place or theirs, or you can have other choices. Take the chance to chat about daily happenings, and repay just a little of the time they gladly spent on you. If they live really close by, you could even drop in on the way home from work at times.

●A weekly planned phone call

For those who live at a greater distance from their parents, there is no possibility of regular contact in person, but this does not mean an end to personal contact. Your parents will be glad to hear the sound of your voice, so plan to call them on the telephone at least once a week. If possible, choose a proper time when everyone is more likely to be at home. Your parents will be even happier if this could be a video call.

●E-mail, text and social networks

If your parents feel quite comfortable in the cyber world, well, spend some time with them in that location. Exchange e-mails, photos, and even Facebook friends with them. You don’t have to share every detail of your life with them, just the bits you know they will have interest in.

●Ask for your parents’ advice

Whatever problems you may be having, large or small, it’s a safe bet that your parents have been through it all before. So talk to them and ask for their advice, and if they make the way clearer for you, it might just turn out to be the best few minutes you ever spent.

●Share relaxation time

That is, plan time together doing something you both enjoy. Women preparing for a shopping trip or to take in a film could easily do the same thing together with Mum. Sometimes fathers and sons could enjoy golf or fishing together. Going out for a meal can be a time for everyone to have fun, or you can get together for a weekend once or twice a year if distance separates you.

Though most parents do not expect to play a lead role in the lives of their adult children, their years of love and gladly-given time deserve a few thoughtful minutes in return. So spend time with your parents and make them closer to you.

（2023·江苏·一模）The topic of China’s “slash youth”(斜杠青年) has become hot on social media recently, drawing attention to the different pursuits(追求) of the younger generation.

The slash youth means those who refuse to be accepted by just one personal identity(身份). They like to present themselves as different identities, such as a nurse and model, a teacher and excellent singer, and an engineer and band player. Rather than comfortable life, they pursue meaningful achievement.

A different career can make them develop new experiences and talents. What’s more, they can get other

people’s recognition(承认) and they can have a sense of satisfaction themselves.

A study on “slash youth” published in the China Youth Research magazine talks about the background of this phenomenon(现象): with part of modern society’s usual organization and stability norms(稳定的规范) are broken, flexible labor(灵活的劳动力) markets has appeared. Young people also face the difficult time of self-development, including the sense of powerlessness, lost sense of value in the job, which forces them to re-find the meaning of work.

“The slash life shows that our society is changing better and better in some ways, and it welcomes everyone’s self-development,” said Shi Yanrong, an associate researcher from Tianjin Academy of Social Sciences. “Young people no longer have to depend on work and money for their sense of self-development. They would like to create their own identities.” The researcher added that against the background that people have different interests and are willing to pay for these interests nowadays, the slash life of the youth would drive the growth of a new economy(经济) and its development.
