本文的语篇类型为戏剧。戏剧是一种综合的舞台艺术，其中台词和舞台说明是最重要的构成元素。舞台说明一般用括号括起来，包括对人物外形、内心的描绘，对时代背景、生活环境的交代，以及对人物表演的某些提示，具有推动故事情节等作用。台词包括对话、独白和旁白，是作者展示剧情、刻画人物、体现主题的主要手段。在本文这场戏中，讲述了父亲与儿子由于立场不同，就儿子的未来职业规划产生分歧和冲突，并最终由祖父调和的故事。
阅读这场戏剧时，注意理解标题的含义，理解父亲和儿子的观点，树立正确的家庭观。
课文写法借鉴
(一)赏用词之妙
1．(nervously approaching the table) Erm ... Dad, can we talk
赏析：nervously形象地展示了儿子在告知父亲自己的决定之前忐忑不安的心理状态。
2．(raising his voice in surprise) You can't be serious! What about your future career as a lawyer？！
赏析：raising his voice in surprise从语气和语调的角度生动反映出父亲的情绪由平和到激动的变化，You can't be serious体现了父亲听到儿子的职业规划后的惊讶，What about ...与后面的问号及感叹号搭配，写出了父亲的强硬态度。
3．I knew you'd say that!
赏析：此处动词knew用了过去时态，可灵活翻译为“就知道，早知道”，写出了儿子失望、不满的心理状态。
4．(with a sigh) Dad ...
赏析：介词短语“with a sigh”活灵活现地表达出了儿子对坚持己见的父亲的无奈。
提能训练
①(英译汉)The kids nervously knocked on the door of the old house.
那些孩子们提心吊胆地敲了敲那栋老房子的门。
②(英译汉)And yellow leaves of autumn, which have no songs, flutter (飘动) and fall there with a sigh.
秋天的黄叶，它们没有什么可唱，只叹息一声，飞落在那里。
③(汉译英)我早知道你会迟到！
I knew that you would be late!
④(完成句子)__________________________, he said, “_________ ________！”
他吃惊地提高嗓音说，“你一定在开玩笑！”
Raising his voice in surprise
You must
be joking
(二)赏句式之高
1．You just assume I want to be a lawyer, but that's only because you are a lawyer.
赏析：这是一个由but连接的并列复合句。assume I want to be a lawyer是省略了that的宾语从句，that's because ...意为“那是因为……”，because在此引导表语从句，与前面的转折连词but连用，写出了儿子对父亲做法的不赞同。
2．Why don't you also take my advice and think carefully before jumping in with both feet
赏析：Why don't you ...常用于提出建议，其省略形式为Why not ...。该句体现了祖父为了化解父子之间的矛盾，使用了一种委婉的语气，提出自己的建议。
①(完成句子) social media has a strong influence in practice.
这是因为社交媒体在实践中具有强大的影响力。
②(汉译英)如果你不知道该做什么，为什么不去做你喜欢做的事情？
If you don't know what to do, why don't you do what you like
提能训练
This is because
(三)赏修辞之功
Like Father, Like Son
赏析：此句运用了“引用”修辞手法。Like father, like son是英语中常见的谚语，意为“有其父必有其子”，用在此处，起到了一种画龙点睛的效果，直接点明了文章的主旨。
美文阅读润心
“望子成龙，望女成凤”是天下父母共同的夙愿。遗憾的是现实生活中普遍存在一种反常现象：父母与孩子的关系不稳定，不和睦，有时甚至剑拔弩张。为人父母应善待、关爱、包容子女；身为子女要尊敬、体贴、理解父母，这样才能建立和睦、稳定的家庭关系。两代人多沟通，多交流，风雨之后仍见彩虹。
Does every dinner with your parents seem to turn into a battle Have your once warm and open conversations become cold and guarded Do you feel that you just cannot see eye to eye with them on anything You are not alone. Heated arguments and cold silences are common between teenagers and their parents.
“Why can't they just let me go？” you may wonder. On the other hand, when you are struggling to control your feelings, you wish they could be more caring and patient — sometimes they forget that growing up is a rough ride. 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 in your relationship.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Josie, who is 17 years old, said, “Why do my parents do the same things they tell me not to do For example, my mum stops me from shouting through the walls and asks me to go and speak to her face-to-face, but she always shouts through the walls to me. What can I do？”
That is a very good point. Parents can be completely inconsistent (不一致), and usually they don't realize it. You see this a lot in many things like smartphones. Parents always say to their kids, “Oh, you can't use that. That device (设备) is bad for you, so stop using it at the table. It's harmful.” But then they are on theirs continually. So what do you expect teenagers to do
The whole “Do as I say, not as I do” thing is an annoyance, especially for a teenager who is dying for independence and respect but isn't getting them.
What can teenagers do with it I would say you should point it out by calmly saying something like “You tell me not to scream through the walls, but you do it to me, so you can understand where I'm coming from. That's not ideal.” They might object to it, but I think most parents who care about being parents would logically say, “That's a reasonable point.”
There are a lot of conflicts (矛盾) going on between teenagers and their parents, but a lot of studies show that the conflicts are resolved a lot more when they turn into a dialogue.
If you can talk at a time when you're both feeling a bit calmer, like just in the kitchen or doing something unimportant, then go in and say, “Can I just mention it You tell me not to do this, but you do it too.” If you can approach it in a more calm and stress-free manner, most parents will respond positively.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了面对父母教育自己时言行不一的问题，青少年应该冷静地和父母沟通。
1．How did Josie feel according to her words in paragraph 1
A．Hopeful. B．Bored.
C．Proud. D．Confused.
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段“Why do my parents do the same things they tell me not to do？”可推断，Josie感到很困惑。故选D。
√
2．What does the underlined word “theirs” in paragraph 2 refer to
A．The parents' smartphones.
B．The tables in the house.
C．The devices in the house.
D．The teenagers' points.
√
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“Oh, you can't use that. That device (设备) is bad for you, so stop using it at the table. It's harmful.”可知，父母总是对孩子说手机有害，不要使用，而他们自己却一直在用自己的手机。由此可知，theirs指的是父母的手机。故选A。
3．What should teenagers do with their parents' inconsistency
A．Object to it personally.
B．Complain of it continually.
C．Talk with their parents calmly.
D．Do some studies differently.
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段可知，面对父母教育自己时言行不一的问题，青少年应该冷静地和父母沟通。故选C。
√
4．What is the author's purpose of writing the last paragraph
A．To list a fact.　 B．To offer a suggestion.
C．To show a result. D．To ask a new question.
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段可推知，作者在最后一段就面对父母教育自己时言行不一的问题，提出了一些建议。故选B。
√
B
This July my husband and I decided to move both our kids, aged 14 and 10, from their previous schools to a new international school that's located in our neighborhood. It wasn't an easy decision. We knew switching (改变) schools would be a challenge for our kids.
Put two kids in the same situation and they react and feel differently. Nina, outgoing and talkative, has no problem making new friends and adjusting to the new school. It took her less than a week to say, “This school is great. I like it.” Everywhere she goes, she's surrounded by friends.
While it took Michael months to say, “I guess this is fine.” Before that, he complained about everything. He's sensitive and quite hard on himself. Words of encouragement need to be told on a daily basis.
To make our children comfortable before, during, and after the move, we included them in our plan from the beginning. They're big enough to take part in decision-making activities. We researched, compared, and asked questions. We listed everything about their old schools and the new one, and we discussed every item. We were open with them from the start. Our kids knew what was going on and what was about to happen. They had time to prepare themselves. They trusted us.
Communicating with their new teachers was also important. For the first three months, we kept an eye on our children's academic (学业的) performance and their school life. If we discovered a drop in their grades or any unusual behavior, we were quick to arrange appointments with their teachers.
We don't aim to be helicopter parents, but it doesn't mean we let them go completely. Balancing this role is hard — the older the kid, the harder it gets — but it's not impossible. The key is to listen first, and act second.
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了一对父母给孩子转学的过程。这对父母通过与孩子开诚布公地交谈，分析转学前后的情况，让孩子参与到决策中来。
5．Why were the children probably moved into a new school
A．The old school is not good enough.
B．They wanted to make more new friends.
C．The new school is conveniently located near their home.
D．The outgoing child can help the shy one in the same school.
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第一段第一句可知，他们让孩子转到新学校，是因为新学校就在他们附近，离家近。
√
6．How did the parents help the children deal with switching schools
A．By tolerating their behavior in school.
B．By choosing the best teachers for them.
C．By encouraging them to enjoy social life.
D．By having open communication with them.
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第四段内容可知，这对父母从一开始就对孩子开诚布公地讨论关于转学的事。
√
7．What might the underlined phrase “helicopter parents” in the last paragraph refer to
A．Parents who send their children to school in person.
B．Parents who pay very close attention to their children.
C．Parents who talk too much rather than take action.
D．Parents who listen to their children all the time.
√
解析：词义猜测题。根据文章最后一段的首句可知，helicopter parents与let them go completely完全相反，let them go completely表示“完全放任不管”，由此可推知，helicopter parents指管得很紧，或密切关注。
8．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
A．Parents should prepare children for decisions.
B．Children can adapt to a new school quite easily.
C．Children should listen to their parents when making decisions.
D．Parents should communicate with children about their performance.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据文章第四段内容可知，这对父母在让孩子转学这件事上，通过开诚布公地与孩子交谈，让孩子参与到决策中来。由此可知，这对父母通过这件事告诉我们要让孩子做好做决定的准备。故A项“父母应该让孩子做好做决定的准备。”正确。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
How to Say Anything
Could you use some advice Or has something big happened Our tips can help you say anything to your parents.
Pick the right time. You need your parents' full attention in order to have a good talk. Try not to bring up something when it's past your bedtime or when your parent is in a rush. 9 Your parents want to know what's on your mind, so ask them to make time for you.
Go slowly. What you need to say probably isn't simple, so don't try to get it all out in one breath. Give your parents the details they need to make a decision before you start trying to bargain with them. Besides, another thing is also of great importance. 10 Listen to them, and they'll listen to you.
Be honest. Your parents will respond better if you believe that you're telling the truth and not trying to avoid blame. Take responsibility for your part in getting into trouble or earning a bad grade. 11 Things get worse the longer you wait.
Try, try again. When you fly off the handle, your parents have a hard time seeing your point of view. If you're angry or frustrated, take a break from the conversation. Excuse yourself, and go somewhere to cool off. 12
Be brave. 13 But your parents almost always can help you solve a problem or answer a big question, and you'll almost always feel better afterward. Talk to your parents. You'll be glad you did.
A．If you've done something wrong, admit it.
B．After all, details determine success or failure.
C．Remember that conversation is about give and take.
D．If your parents are occupied, make an “appointment (预约)”．
E．Your conversation will be reduced to a terrible quarrel.
F．Gather your thoughts and try talking to your parents again.
G．You might have a question for long before you get up the courage to let it out.

It can be a big headache to balance your developing mental needs too. You enter a strange middle ground — no longer a small child but not quite an adult. You have both a new desire for independence and a continued need for your parents' love and support. You feel ready to be more responsible and make decisions on your own. that makes you feel unhappy. “Why can't they just let me go？” you may wonder.

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 in your relationship.

If you can talk at a time when you're both feeling a bit calmer, like just in the kitchen or doing something unimportant, then go in and say, “Can I just mention it You tell me not to do this, but you do it too.” If you can approach it in a more calm and stress free manner, most parents will respond positively.

This July my husband and I decided to move both our kids, aged 14 and 10, from their previous schools to a new international school that's located in our neighborhood. It wasn't an easy decision. We knew switching (改变) schools would be a challenge for our kids.
Put two kids in the same situation and they react and feel differently. Nina, outgoing and talkative, has no problem making new friends and adjusting to the new school. It took her less than a week to say, “This school is great. I like it.” Everywhere she goes, she's surrounded by friends.
While it took Michael months to say, “I guess this is fine.” Before that, he complained about everything. He's sensitive and quite hard on himself. Words of encouragement need to be told on a daily basis.
To make our children comfortable before, during, and after the move, we included them in our plan from the beginning. They're big enough to take part in decision making activities. We researched, compared, and asked questions. We listed everything about their old schools and the new one, and we discussed every item. We were open with them from the start. Our kids knew what was going on and what was about to happen. They had time to prepare themselves. They trusted us.
Communicating with their new teachers was also important. For the first three months, we kept an eye on our children's academic (学业的) performance and their school life. If we discovered a drop in their grades or any unusual behavior, we were quick to arrange appointments with their teachers.
We don't aim to be helicopter_parents,_but it doesn't mean we let them go completely. Balancing this role is hard — the older the kid, the harder it gets — but it's not impossible. The key is to listen first, and act second.
5．Why were the children probably moved into a new school
A．The old school is not good enough.
B．They wanted to make more new friends.
C．The new school is conveniently located near their home.
D．The outgoing child can help the shy one in the same school.
6．How did the parents help the children deal with switching schools
A．By tolerating their behavior in school.
B．By choosing the best teachers for them.
C．By encouraging them to enjoy social life.
D．By having open communication with them.
7．What might the underlined phrase “helicopter parents” in the last paragraph refer to
A．Parents who send their children to school in person.
B．Parents who pay very close attention to their children.
C．Parents who talk too much rather than take action.
D．Parents who listen to their children all the time.
8．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage
A．Parents should prepare children for decisions.
B．Children can adapt to a new school quite easily.
C．Children should listen to their parents when making decisions.
D．Parents should communicate with children about their performance.
