Relationships may develop problems for different kinds of reasons. However, poor communication is often the reason why some people have a hard time solving these problems. Here are some suggestions for you to improve the communication between your partner and yourself.
Schedule（安排）time to just talk. When problems start, communication often breaks down and you may notice that you and your partner do not talk as much as you used to. To start improving your communication again, try to find a certain time to talk about anything.
Work on active listening skills. Problems may also appear in relationships if a partner feels like he or she is not being heard. To solve this problem, practise active listening skills when your partner is talking to you.
Express your appreciation（欣赏）for each other. Feeling unaccepted can cause problems in a relationship as well. That is why it is so important to remember to say things like “Thank you.” and “I appreciate you.” as often as possible.
Think carefully before you speak. Sometimes you may find yourself saying or wanting to say things that might make your partner feel bad about himself or herself. If so, take a moment to stop and think about what the problem is and what you could say to help find a better way to solve it.
Apologize if you make mistakes. Sometimes you will need to apologize in order to move forward with your partner. If you make an apology, make sure that it is sincere.

第二节 阅读填空（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）
以下是一篇短文，请阅读全文，并从下列方框里的六个句子中选择五个还原到原文中，使原文的意思完整、连贯。
A. When he’s not sure whether he’s loved or not, B. It’s also a good idea to set an example for your kids. C. parents still need to lead their kids to form the habit of not lying. D. As kids get older, E. Actually, they don’t need to worry. F. They could do a lot for their kids.
Most parents are worried the first time they catch their kids out lying. ___26___
According to the child and teen psychiatrist Gayani DeSilva, “Kids lie for many reasons, and it is normal for them to lie. People are not born with the knowledge of communicating with others and getting their needs met. They must learn how to communicate those needs in proper ways. They’ll experiment with different communication styles and skills until they find the ones that work best for them. Lying is one of these skills.”
___27___ they become more aware of how their actions affect others, and many will lie less frequently because they know it could hurt someone else’s feelings. In spite of this, ___28___ According to DeSilva, when children lie, look at them directly and ask what they need. After they tell you, gently remind them that telling you directly will be more effective（有效的）than lying.
___29___ If you want them to have good behavior. In other words, don’t lie to your children.
In some cases, lying is a sign of a deeper problem. A child who is neglected will lie more than a child who has attentive and responsive parents. ___30___ he may lie to please others. The same goes for a child who has experienced something unpleasant. By paying attention to the reasons behind a lie, parents can know what needs to be done. For example, while Jack might lie about finishing his homework in order to play video games, he might also be trying to avoid negative feelings connected with homework. “And this is just where parents should start,” says the therapist Gideon Javna.

31. A good parent-children relationship should be set up on the basis of mutual understanding and respect. Parents can not force their children to do what they don’t want. They should treat their children as independent individuals.
32. During the activity, each student and his or her parents were asked to choose one chapter from their books and then read it together. After that, they shared their feelings or opinions about it. Many parents said this offered a better opportunity for them to get to know each other.

34. It is very important for parents to spend time with their children, like eating meals together, having a picnic together on weekends, going to sports events, watching movies, reading books and cooking at home.
35. On the other hand, children should listen to their parents’ advice, for they’re more experienced. Try to be understanding when there is disagreement with parents. Always keep one thing in mind, whatever they do comes from their love for us.

阅读下面短文，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空。并将答案填写在规定的位置上。
There are a lot of problems in ___36___(teenager) life. However, they are just a part of growing up to be an adult. If they are dealt with well, they won’t become real problems.

They don’t understand that it is quite hard for teenagers to ___38___(become) adults. That is also the reason ___39___ teenagers sometimes don’t know ___40___ to do and get angry easily.
I think I’m a good example of that kind of teenagers. I once had an experience like that. When I just started middle school, I caused a lot of problems for my teachers. I didn’t obey the class rules and kept talking to my classmates in class. So the head teacher called my parents. ___41___ they learned what had happened, my parents took me home. ___42___ my surprise, they weren’t angry with me.

When there’s a problem in a teenage child’s life, the parents should find a good opportunity to have a talk with the child first. Then they should try to solve the problem together. This is good for both the parents and the child. ___45___(understand) comes first, then everything goes well.
