专题04 Unit 2 Let's Talk Teens 课文（Reading）讲解 Reading课文对译解读 Reading When teenagers’ bodies and minds go through ① a period of rapid development, every part of their lives can be influenced.The magazine article below is about teenagers’ relationships with their parents. Before you read the article, think about the following questions: What physical and mental changes ② do you experience as you become a teenager？ How do you deal with them? What do you think "strangers under the same roof ③ " means? Strangers under the same roof? Does every dinner with. .your parents seem to turn into a battle ④ ? Have your once warm and open conversations become cold and guarded ⑤ ? Do you feel that you just cannot see eye to eye with them on ⑥ anything?【1】You are not alone. Heated arguments ⑦ and cold silences are common between teenagers ⑧ and their parents. Teenagers’ physical changes may result in ⑨ such family tensions ⑩ . You may feel anxious ⑪that you are developing at a different rate ⑫ to your friends, shooting up ⑬ in height or getting left far behind ⑭ （that引导的宾语从句，作anxious的宾语。shooting up…far behind是动词-ing短语作伴随状语。）.You might worry about your changing voice, weight problems or spots ⑮ . When it all gets too much, your parents are often the first targets ⑯ of your anger ⑰ . It （形式主语）can be a big headache ⑱ to balance your developing mental needs（动词不定式短语作真正的主语。） too. You enter a strange middle ground ⑲—no longer a small child but not quite an adult ⑳ . You have both a new desire for ㉑ independence and a continued need for your parents’ love and support. （[写作特色]“both…and…”结构，连接两个并列的名词短语a new desire for independence和a continued need for…support；这两个名词短语形成对比，表现出了青春期孩子既想独立又离不开父母支持的矛盾心理。）You feel ready to be more responsible and make decisions on your own ㉒ . Unfortunately, your parents do not always（部分否定） agree and that （that指代上文“your parents do not always agree”这件事。） makes you feel unhappy. "Why can’t they just let me go ㉓ ?" you may wonder. On the other hand ㉔, when you are struggling to ㉕ control your feelings,（[赏析]作者用on the other hand来引出青少年有两种不同的心理需求。） you wish they could be more caring ㉖ and patient—sometimes they forget that growing up is a rough ride ㉗ .【2】 It can be difficult when your parents treat you like a child but expect you to act like an adult. All of this can lead to a breakdown ㉘ in your relationship. Although sometimes it may seem impossible to get along ㉙ as a family（although引导的让步状语从句）, you can take action to ㉚ improve the situation. The key to ㉛ keeping the peace（ 动词-ing短语作介词to的宾语。） is regular ㉜ and honest communication. When you disagree with your parents, take a minute to calm down ㉝ and try to understand the situation from their point of view ㉞ . Perhaps they have experienced something similar and do not want you to go through the same pain. After you have thought it through ㉟ , explain your actions and feelings calmly, listen carefully, and address their concerns ㊱ . Through this kind of healthy discussion, you will learn when to back down ㊲ and when to ask your parents to relax their control.【3】 Just remember that it is completely normal ㊳ to struggle with the stress ㊴ that parent-child tensions create, and that you and your parents can work together to improve your relationship.【4】The good news is that this stormy period ㊵ will not last（that引导的表语从句）. Everything will turn out ㊶ all right in the end, and the changes and challenges of your teenage years will prepare you for adulthood. 同一屋檐下的陌生人？ 是不是你和父母的每一顿饭似乎都会变成一场争执？④turn into a battle 转变为一场争执？你们之间曾经暖心、坦诚的对话是否已变得冷漠且谨慎？你是否觉得你已经无法在任何事情上和他们意见一致？你并不是唯一的一个。激烈的争吵和冰冷的沉默在青少年和他们的父母之间很常见。 青少年的生理变化可能会导致这样紧张的家庭关系。你可能会因自己发育的速度和朋友们不同而感到焦虑，要么是个头猛蹿，要么是被远远甩在后面。你也许会担忧变声、体重问题或粉刺。当这一切让你不堪重负时，父母常常会成为你发泄愤怒的首选目标。 平衡你日益发展的心理需求可能也是一件十分令人头痛的事。你进入到一个奇怪的中间地带：不再是个小孩子,但也还算不上是个成年人。你既对独立有新的渴望，却又不断索取着父母的爱与支持。你觉得已经准备好去承担更多的责任，去独立做决定。不幸的是，你的父母并不总认同这一点，于是这让你感到不高兴。你可能会想:“他们为什么就不能对我放手呢？”另一方面，当你努力控制自己的情绪时，你希望他们能更加体贴，更有耐心——有时候他们会忘记成长是一段艰难的旅程。当你的父母像对待孩子一样对待你，却希望你表现得像个成年人时，你的处境就会很艰难。所有的这些都可能会导致你们的关系破裂。 尽管有时候一家人似乎根本无法和谐相处，但你可以采取行动改善这种局面。保持和平的关键是定期、真诚的沟通。当你不同意你父母的观点时，花点时间先冷静下来，并尽量从他们的角度去理解情况。或许他们经历过类似的事情，不想让你经受同样的痛苦。在你全面考虑之后，冷静地解释你的行为和感受，仔细倾听，并消除他们的顾虑。通过这种良性的讨论，你将学会何时做出让步，何时要求你的父母放松（对你的）控制。 只要记住，无法轻松应对亲子关系紧张带来的压力是完全正常的，并且你和父母可以共同努力，改善关系。好消息是，这段冲突不断的时期不会一直持续下去。最后一切都会好起来的。青少年时期遇到的变化和挑战会让你为成年做好准备。 课文重点词汇 ①go through 经历，经受（尤指苦难或艰难时期）；检查，审查 ②physical and mental changes 生理和心理变化 physical /ˈfɪzɪkl/ adj.身体的，肉体的，躯体的 mental /ˈmentl/ adj. 思想的，精神的，智力的;精神健康的 拓展 physical and mental health 身心健康 ③roof /ru:f/ n.

This can be at breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It has been shown that families who eat together are healthier and happier. Experts encourage families to cook together, eat together, talk together, and make mealtime a family time. Eating together helps build a close relationship between parents and children. It gives everyone in the family a chance to learn more about each other. Turn off the TV and do not answer the phone during mealtime. Instead, use this time to talk, connect, and make memories together. It is a lesson children will use for life. Meals prepared at home are usually more nutritious(有营养的) than meals eaten while dining out. Children learn about correct portion(一份) sizes, food groups, and nutrition when eating with their family. Let children learn by serving themselves at dinner. Teach them to take small amounts at first. Tell them that they can get more if they are still hungry. Eating with children can give them a sense of safety. Studies show that this decreases the chances that children will take part in activities such as smoking and drinking. Besides, eating at home saves the family money. It is cheaper to cook meals at home than it is to dine out. Get everyone involved in meal preparation. Letting children help prepare food will help them feel valued and part of the family. Eating together as a family gives children an opportunity to learn and practice their social skills, table manners and conversation skills. Offer children new foods, but do not force them to eat them. Let them choose how much to eat. Children are more likely to enjoy a food when it is their own choice. It also helps them learn to be independent. 1.What can we learn from the passage? A.Children should choose what to do during the mealtime. B.Children are more willing to eat out with their family. C.Dinner is a wonderful time to improve parent-child relationships. D.Parents should ask their children to eat as much food as possible. 2.What does the underlined word “involved” in Para. 4 probably mean? A.Understood.　　　　 B.Included.　　　　 C.Checked.　　　　 D.Covered. 3.What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A.Children usually prefer food chosen by their parents when dining out. B.Eating together at home as a family may cost parents a lot of money. C.Lacking a sense of security may lead to children developing bad habits. D.It is a good habit for children to keep silent when eating with their parents. 4.What is the most suitable title for the passage? A.Eating Together with Children More　　　　 B.How to Prepare a Perfect Family Meal C.The Importance of Family Conversation　　　　 D.The Benefits of Family Meals to Children 三.七选五 (2025湖南长沙麓山国际实验学校月考) Everyone is shaped by the people and environment around them, but none so much as the family. For better or worse, our parents and other relatives have a great influence on our lives. 　1　 As we grow older, we may distance ourselves from them, but their influence remains.  One of the most obvious ways the family shapes us is through genetics(遗传现象). We get our physical characteristics from our parents, like hair color and eye color. 　2　 We also get tendencies (偏好) and talents, such as a musical talent. Even though we can't choose our genes, we can learn to accept the things that make us unique.  Another way the family shapes us is through its experiences. From an early age, we learn the habits, beliefs, and values of our family members. 　3　 We may not share all the same views as our parents or grandparents, but their influence is still there. In many ways, this influence is even stronger than genes when it comes to who we become as people.  　4　 The way our parents treat us and each other has a huge influence on how we see the world and how we treat the people around us. If we grow up in a household where we're shown love and respect, we are more likely to show love and respect to others.  There's no clear-cut answer to the question of nature or nurture(培养). 　5　 But many other factors(因素) also play a role. By understanding how our family shapes us, we can develop a deeper understanding of our own lives and relationships.  A.But genetics goes beyond appearance. B.Finally, the family shapes us by example. C.This can help create a sense of pride within the family. D.In difficult times, our family is often the first place we turn to. E.Over time, these things become part of us whether we realize it or not. F.Our family plays an important role in how we develop as human beings. G.They are the first people we learn from and the ones we model ourselves on. 1.　　　　　　 2.　　　　　　 3.　　　　　　 4.　　　　　　 5.　　　　　　  1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题04 Unit 2 Let's Talk Teens 课文（Reading）讲解 Reading课文对译解读 Reading When teenagers’ bodies and minds go through ① a period of rapid development, every part of their lives can be influenced.The magazine article below is about teenagers’ relationships with their parents.

Unfortunately, your parents do not always（部分否定） agree and that （that指代上文“your parents do not always agree”这件事。） makes you feel unhappy. "Why can’t they just let me go ㉓ ?" you may wonder. On the other hand ㉔, when you are struggling to ㉕ control your feelings,（[赏析]作者用on the other hand来引出青少年有两种不同的心理需求。） you wish they could be more caring ㉖ and patient—sometimes they forget that growing up is a rough ride ㉗ .【2】 It can be difficult when your parents treat you like a child but expect you to act like an adult. All of this can lead to a breakdown ㉘ in your relationship. Although sometimes it may seem impossible to get along ㉙ as a family（although引导的让步状语从句）, you can take action to ㉚ improve the situation. The key to ㉛ keeping the peace（ 动词-ing短语作介词to的宾语。） is regular ㉜ and honest communication. When you disagree with your parents, take a minute to calm down ㉝ and try to understand the situation from their point of view ㉞ . Perhaps they have experienced something similar and do not want you to go through the same pain. After you have thought it through ㉟ , explain your actions and feelings calmly, listen carefully, and address their concerns ㊱ . Through this kind of healthy discussion, you will learn when to back down ㊲ and when to ask your parents to relax their control.【3】 Just remember that it is completely normal ㊳ to struggle with the stress ㊴ that parent-child tensions create, and that you and your parents can work together to improve your relationship.【4】The good news is that this stormy period ㊵ will not last（that引导的表语从句）. Everything will turn out ㊶ all right in the end, and the changes and challenges of your teenage years will prepare you for adulthood. 同一屋檐下的陌生人？ 是不是你和父母的每一顿饭似乎都会变成一场争执？④turn into a battle 转变为一场争执？你们之间曾经暖心、坦诚的对话是否已变得冷漠且谨慎？你是否觉得你已经无法在任何事情上和他们意见一致？你并不是唯一的一个。激烈的争吵和冰冷的沉默在青少年和他们的父母之间很常见。 青少年的生理变化可能会导致这样紧张的家庭关系。你可能会因自己发育的速度和朋友们不同而感到焦虑，要么是个头猛蹿，要么是被远远甩在后面。你也许会担忧变声、体重问题或粉刺。当这一切让你不堪重负时，父母常常会成为你发泄愤怒的首选目标。 平衡你日益发展的心理需求可能也是一件十分令人头痛的事。你进入到一个奇怪的中间地带：不再是个小孩子,但也还算不上是个成年人。你既对独立有新的渴望，却又不断索取着父母的爱与支持。你觉得已经准备好去承担更多的责任，去独立做决定。不幸的是，你的父母并不总认同这一点，于是这让你感到不高兴。你可能会想:“他们为什么就不能对我放手呢？”另一方面，当你努力控制自己的情绪时，你希望他们能更加体贴，更有耐心——有时候他们会忘记成长是一段艰难的旅程。当你的父母像对待孩子一样对待你，却希望你表现得像个成年人时，你的处境就会很艰难。所有的这些都可能会导致你们的关系破裂。 尽管有时候一家人似乎根本无法和谐相处，但你可以采取行动改善这种局面。保持和平的关键是定期、真诚的沟通。当你不同意你父母的观点时，花点时间先冷静下来，并尽量从他们的角度去理解情况。或许他们经历过类似的事情，不想让你经受同样的痛苦。在你全面考虑之后，冷静地解释你的行为和感受，仔细倾听，并消除他们的顾虑。通过这种良性的讨论，你将学会何时做出让步，何时要求你的父母放松（对你的）控制。 只要记住，无法轻松应对亲子关系紧张带来的压力是完全正常的，并且你和父母可以共同努力，改善关系。好消息是，这段冲突不断的时期不会一直持续下去。最后一切都会好起来的。青少年时期遇到的变化和挑战会让你为成年做好准备。 课文重点词汇 ①go through 经历，经受（尤指苦难或艰难时期）；检查，审查 ②physical and mental changes 生理和心理变化 physical /ˈfɪzɪkl/ adj.身体的，肉体的，躯体的 mental /ˈmentl/ adj. 思想的，精神的，智力的;精神健康的 拓展 physical and mental health 身心健康 ③roof /ru:f/ n.

This can be at breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It has been shown that families who eat together are healthier and happier. Experts encourage families to cook together, eat together, talk together, and make mealtime a family time. Eating together helps build a close relationship between parents and children. It gives everyone in the family a chance to learn more about each other. Turn off the TV and do not answer the phone during mealtime. Instead, use this time to talk, connect, and make memories together. It is a lesson children will use for life. Meals prepared at home are usually more nutritious(有营养的) than meals eaten while dining out. Children learn about correct portion(一份) sizes, food groups, and nutrition when eating with their family. Let children learn by serving themselves at dinner. Teach them to take small amounts at first. Tell them that they can get more if they are still hungry. Eating with children can give them a sense of safety. Studies show that this decreases the chances that children will take part in activities such as smoking and drinking. Besides, eating at home saves the family money. It is cheaper to cook meals at home than it is to dine out. Get everyone involved in meal preparation. Letting children help prepare food will help them feel valued and part of the family. Eating together as a family gives children an opportunity to learn and practice their social skills, table manners and conversation skills.

For better or worse, our parents and other relatives have a great influence on our lives. 　1　 As we grow older, we may distance ourselves from them, but their influence remains.  One of the most obvious ways the family shapes us is through genetics(遗传现象). We get our physical characteristics from our parents, like hair color and eye color. 　2　 We also get tendencies (偏好) and talents, such as a musical talent. Even though we can't choose our genes, we can learn to accept the things that make us unique.  Another way the family shapes us is through its experiences. From an early age, we learn the habits, beliefs, and values of our family members. 　3　 We may not share all the same views as our parents or grandparents, but their influence is still there. In many ways, this influence is even stronger than genes when it comes to who we become as people.  　4　 The way our parents treat us and each other has a huge influence on how we see the world and how we treat the people around us. If we grow up in a household where we're shown love and respect, we are more likely to show love and respect to others.  There's no clear-cut answer to the question of nature or nurture(培养). 　5　 But many other factors(因素) also play a role. By understanding how our family shapes us, we can develop a deeper understanding of our own lives and relationships.  A.But genetics goes beyond appearance. B.Finally, the family shapes us by example. C.This can help create a sense of pride within the family. D.In difficult times, our family is often the first place we turn to. E.Over time, these things become part of us whether we realize it or not. F.Our family plays an important role in how we develop as human beings.
