so
1. 准确使用简单句、并列句和复合句，就如何与父母有效真诚沟通表达自己的观点。
Example：Talking with parents can be challenging, but good communication builds stronger relationships. Always speak honestly and respectfully, which may contribute to an effective conversation. Your parents may not agree with you at first, yet they'll respect your honesty. When you share your thoughts, speak clearly and listen carefully, because understanding goes both ways.
Honest communication with parents is essential for a strong relationship. You should talk to your parents calmly and express your feelings and needs openly. If you're upset, wait until you calm down before talking. Listen to what they say and try to put yourself in your parents' shoes. Even if they get angry at first, don't argue; instead, explain your feelings patiently because they care about you.

1. What's the meaning of the title “Strangers under the same roof”？
I think it means that parents and teenagers feel as if they do not know each other very well any more even though they have lived together in the same house for many years. This often happens when children become teenagers because the way they look, think and do things changes. Parents sometimes do not understand or accept these changes easily and teens become angry with their parents.
2. For what purpose did the author write this article
He wanted to help teenagers realize that parent－child tensions are normal and inform them of possible causes and solutions so as to have teenagers mentally prepared to go through adolescence as smoothly as possible.
