Critical thinking
you
were the daughter, what response would you have
when you read the article?
Tips : If I were
the daughter, I would be very much touched when I
read the article. I would call
my mom to say
sorry for acting rebelliously and would tell her
how much I love her. Probably I
would return
home as soon as I can.
2. Some young
people refuse to take their parents’ advice or
even do the opposite as they
think they are
adults. How do you think about it?
Tips: I
don’t think it is wise to refuse parents’ advice
or even do the opposite without a good
reason.
Your parents care about you more than anybody else
and always want to share their
experience with
you. If you follow their advice, you can at least
learn from their experience and
avoid making
silly mistakes. If you don’t take their advice,
you may still get experience – but in a
hard
way. Besides, your parents may directly point out
your weaknesses that your peers wouldn’t.
So,
listening to your parents’ advice can make you
smarter and help you grow mature.
3. Some
say a good relationship starts with good
communication. What can you do to
strengthen
communication with your parents?
Tips:Good
communication will, in my view, help build a good
relationship. The following are
my ways to
strengthen communication with my parents:
•
Visit them whenever possible;
• Invite them
to see what I am doing at college;
• Teach
them to use new communication tools, such as
WeChat and Skype so that they can
communicate
with me wherever I am;
• Try to look at
things in their perspectives; and
精选
• Share with them
my feelings, problems or ambitions.
Culture exploration
What are the differences
between the traditional Chinese parenting style
and the western
parenting style? Which one do
you prefer?
Tips: many Chinese parents view
their children as their products, treating them as
objects and
trying to mold them into the forms
they wish the children to be. While the American
parents pay
more attention to children’s
individual personality and care more about their
happiness.

Section B Time slows down
I. Read in
thought groups
When we read, our eyes make
small stops along the line of text. Poor readers
make many more
fixations (eye stops) than good
readers. Not only does this slow you down, but it
inhibits
comprehension because meaning is
easier to pull from groups of words rather than
from individual
words or even single letters.
Try to read in phrases of three or four words,
especially in complete
clauses and
prepositional phrases. To develop the habit of
reading in phrases, you may use a “” to
mark
off phrases and to group them into group thoughts.
Read the following sentences by dividing
them
into phrases, or thought groups.
Examples:
your team does its job well, your manager
will speak kindly about your group.
2. She
left the bedroom a ridiculous mess, the comforter
on the floor, the dress tossed aside. I
strip
off the comforter, the blanket, sheets, and
pillows. Once she startsfeeding coins into
laundry machines, she’ll appreciate the years
of clean clothes I’ve provided for free.
3.“All right,” he says, and carries the smelly
package. As we walk back, he tells me about
migrations of eels to the Sargasso Sea: how
eels come down Dalmatian rivers and swim across
the Mediterranean and then the whole Atlantic,
until they reach the warm
4. Sargasso Sea.
Here they lay their legs, and then the baby eels
swim back to the native rivers
of their
parents.
