一、阅读理解

（2024·江苏徐州·一模）“You know, when I was your age, I experienced the same things that you are now having to deal with. So you need to take my advice!”

Are you familiar with these words? I think most of you are. Elderly people always like to tell young people to listen to them. They give a variety of reasons for why we should do so. But should we take all of the advice that is offered to us by our parents? I don’t think so. We should definitely follow some of our parents’ advice, but not all of it. We must learn to form our own opinions.

Our parents are from a totally different generation. For example, our lessons are much more difficult than theirs when they were students. We are also under much more pressure than they once were. Most of our parents suggest we should make use of every minute to study hard. They consider doing anything else a waste of time. In view of the stressful lives that we now lead, such advice is unreasonable. It might only do harm to us. We must say no to it.

On the other hand, we shouldn’t simply turn a deaf ear to our parents’ advice, either. Our parents have more life experiences than we do. They have dealt with many difficulties. We should sincerely take their advice as long as it is reasonable.

In conclusion, we should listen to our parents selectively. Always think twice about their advice.

1．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．We shouldn’t follow our parents’ advice to form our own opinions.

A．The advice that we should make use of time to study hard.

B．The advice that we should do everything for our parents.

C．The unreasonable advice that our parents provide for us.

D．The advice that we should live a stressful life.

3．Why is the advice given by our parents sometimes unreasonable?

A．Because our parents are from the same generation as us.

B．Because they were once under much more pressure than we are.

C．Because they used to have much more difficult lessons than we have.

D．Because our parents are from a different generation.

4．What’s the main idea of the passage?

A．Think twice about our parents’ advice.

B．Sincerely take our parents’ advice.

C．Say no to our parents’ advice.

Hi, I’m Christine. When I am alone in my room, I get scared that something bad is going to happen. My mum says to think of something else, but it doesn’t help. What can I do? Help me!

This has happened to me, too. I read a book and got into it so that I wasn’t scared. Sarah Sometimes being alone can be scary, so maybe you need something to distract(转移注意力) you.

Before you go to bed, look at them for a while.

Li Meixi, 12, feels worried about her looks—not her face, but her clothes. When she sees stylish people on the street, she avoids running into them. “I am afraid that they think I am out of style. Ashamed of my ordinary outfit, I feel like I don’t even deserve (值得) to walk on the same street with them,” said Li, from Chengdu, Sichuan.

What Li is experiencing is fashion anxiety. It bothers many people today. They are worried about their clothes, afraid of being seen out of style.  

A big reason for fashion worries is fashion bullying, experts said. As fashion magazines, advertisements and idols show off the “latest and greatest” trends (潮流), there’s a lot of pressure on people, especially teenagers, to follow them, no matter how expensive it might be. “The need to belong in groups is very important to young learners and exclusion (排斥) is something they see as the end of the world,” said Andy Crankarm, a teacher at City of Bristol College, the UK.

Another reason why some people might have fashion worries is that they don’t have a sense of self-identity (自我认同). It looks like we feel worried about our clothes, but actually we are not confident enough. So we care
