第三篇
It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them.They have always complained,more or less justly,that their parents are out of touch with modern ways;that they are possessive and dominant;that they do not trust their children to deal with crisis;that they talk too much about certain problems;and that they have no sense of humor,at least in parent-hild relationships.
I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young.
Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles,in entertainments and music.This is not their motive.They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted.So they create a culture and society of their own.Then,if it turns out that their music or entertainments or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents,this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior,at least in a small way,and that they are leaders in style and taste.
Sometimes you are resistant and proud because you do not want your parents to approve of what you do.If they did approve,it looks as if you are betraying your own age group.But in that case, you are assuming that you are the underdog:you can't win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things.It is natural enough after long years of childhood,when you were completely under your parents' control. But it ig而res the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself.
If you plan to control your life,cooperation can be part of that plan.You can charm others,especially your parents,into doing things the way you want.You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative,so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do.
The author is mainly talking to_________.
A:parents of teenagers
B:those who give advice to teenagers
C:newspaper readers
D:teenagers

Early or Later Day Care
The British psychoanalyst John Bowiby maintains that separation from the parents during the sensitive "attachment"period from birth to three may scar a child's personality and predispose to emotional problems in later life.Some people have drawn the conclusion from Bowlby's work that children should not be subjected to day care before the age of three because of the parental separation it entails,and many people do believe this.But there are also arguments against such a strong conclusion.
Firstly,anthropologists point out that the insulated love affair between children and parents found in modern societies does not usually exist in traditional societies.For example,in some tribal societies,such as the Ngoni,the father and mother of a child did not rear their infant alone-far from it.Secondly,common sense tells us that day care would not be so widespread today if parents,care-takers found children had problems with it.Statistical studies of this kind have not yet been carried out,and even if they were,the results would be certain to be complicated and controversial.Thirdly,in the last decade there have been a number of careful American studies of children in day care,and they have uniformly reported that day care had a neutral or slightly positive effect on children's development.But tests that have had to be used to measure this development are not widely enough accepted to settle the issue.
But Bowlby's analysis raises the possibility that early day care has delayed effects.The possibility that such care might lead to,say,more mental illness or crime 15 or 20 years later can only be explored by the use of statistics.Whatever the long-term effects,parents sometimes find the immediate effects difficult to deal with.Children under three are likely to protest at leaving their parents and show unhappiness.At the age of three or three and a half almost all children find the transition to nursery easy,and this is undoubtedly why more and more parents make use of child care at this time.The matter,then,is far from clear-cut, though experience and available evidence indicate that early care is reasonable for infants.
Which of the following is derivable from Bowiby's work?
A:Mothers should not send their children to day care centers before the age of three.
B:Day care nurseries have positive effects on a child's development.
C:A child sent to a day care center before the age of three may have emotional problems in later life.
D:Day care would not be so popular if it has noticeable negative effects on a child's personality.

Organic Food:Why?
1 Europe is now the biggest market for organic food in the world,expanding by 25 percent a year over
the past 10 years.So what is the attraction of organic food for some people?The really important thing is
that organic sounds more"natural".Eating organic is a way of defining oneself as natural,good,caring,
different from the junk-food-eating masses.
2 Unlike conventional farming,the organic approach means farming with natural,rather than man-
made , fertilisers and pesticides. Techniques such as crop rotation（轮种）improve soil quality and help
organic farmers compensate for the absence of man-made chemicals.As a method of food production,organic
is,however,inefficient in its use of labour and land;there are severe limits to how much food can be pro-
duced.Also,the environmental benefits of not using artificial fertilisers are tiny compared with the amount of
carbon dioxide emitted（排放）by transporting food.
3 Organic farming is often claimed to be safer than conventional farming. Yet studies into organic
farming worldwide continue to reject this claim.An extensive review by the UK Food Standards Agency found
that there was no statistically significant difference between organic and conventional crops.Even where re-
sults indicated there was evidence of a difference,the reviewers found no sign that these differences would
have any noticeable effect on health.
4 The simplistic claim that organic food is more nutritious than conventional food was always likely to
be misleading. Food is a natural product,and the health value of different foods will vary for a number of rea-
sons,including freshness,the way the food is cooked,the type of soil it is grown in,the amount of sunlight
and rain crops have received,and so'on.Likewise,the flavour of a carrot has less to do with whether it was
fertilised with manure（粪便）or something out of a plastic sack than with the variety of carrot and how long
ago it was dug up.
5 The notion that organic food is safer than"normal"food is also contradicted by the fact that many of
our most common foods are full of natural toxins（毒素）.As one research expert says: "People think that the
more natural something is,the better it is for them.That is simply not the case.In fact,it is the opposite
that is true:the closer a plant is to its natural state,the more likely it is that it will poison you.Naturally,
many plants do not want to be eaten,so we have spent 10,000 years developing agriculture and breeding out
harmful traits from crops."
