(单词翻译)

[00:19.77]Teenagers1 should be allowed3 to choose their own4 clothes.
[00:24.45]SECTION A
[00:26.57]1b Listen and circle “T” (for true) or “F” (for false).
[01:26.52]2a Listen and check (P) what Kathy thinks. Circle “Agrees”, “Disagrees”, or “Doesn’t know to show what Molly thinks.
[02:35.90]2b Listen again. What are Kathy’s and Molly’s reasons7? Number their reasons in the correct9 order10.
[03:42.43]3a Read the conversation11. Then write Sun Fei’s and Wu Yu’s rules in the chart12. Use “Don’t” and “You can”.
[03:59.07]We have a lot of rules at my house.
[04:03.02]so do we. For example, I have to stay at home on school nights.
[04:09.84]I usually do, too. But sometimes I’m allowed to study at a friend’s house. What about weekends?
[04:18.80]Well, I’m allowed to go to the movies with friends on Friday nights.
[04:24.93]Me, too, but I have to be home by 10:00pm.
[04:30.21]And on Saturday afternoons, I’m allowed to go shopping with my friends.
[04:36.06]That’s nice.
[04:38.99]And I’m allowed to choose my own clothes, but I’m not allowed to get my ears pierced13 yet14.
[04:42.37]SECTION B
[04:47.60]2a Listen and circle the things in activity15 1a that you hear.
[05:34.17]2b Listen again. Match these sentence16 parts17.
[06:21.64]3a Read the article18 and then answer the questions.
[06:29.29]The other day, my friends and I talked about the rules that we have in school.
[06:35.64]At our school, we have to wear uniforms every day.
[06:39.79]The problem20 is that all my classmates think the uniforms are ugly.
[06:45.41]We think young people should look smart and so we would21 like to wear our own clothes.
[06:50.97]Our teachers believe22 that if we did23 that, we would concentrate24 more on our clothes than our studies.
[06:58.08]We disagree6. We would feel more comfortable25 and that is good for studying.
[07:04.24]If we can’t do that, we should be allowed to design26 our own uniforms.
[07:10.09]That would be a good way to keep both teachers and students happy.
[07:14.77]It’s also probably27 a good idea for parents to allow2 teenagers to study in groups during28 the evening.
[07:23.02]I know we get noisy sometimes, but we learn a lot from each other.
[07:28.48]We also think that vacations29 should be longer.
[07:32.43]At present they’re too short.
[07:34.78]Longer vacations would give us time to do things like volunteering31.
[07:40.34]Last summer I had32 an opportunity33 to volunteer30 at the local34 hospital.
[07:46.22]It couldn’t because I had to go back to school.
[07:49.38]It would be a good experience35 for me because I want to be a doctor when I ’m older.
[07:55.73]2 Read this article. Write a letter to the editor36 agreeing37 or disagreeing38. Explain39 your reasons.
[08:12.97]Helping and learning
[08:16.13]At our school, we sometimes have a special day to help others40.
[08:21.80]Last year we went to and old people’s home and sang41 songs and performed42 a play for them.
[08:28.30]The old people were very happy.
[08:32.25]We should be allowed to take time to do things like that more often.
[08:37.00]For example, we should visit primary43 schools and help teach young students.
[08:42.86]I want to be a teacher when I’m older so it would be a great experience for me.
[08:48.89]Other students would like to do other jobs.
[08:52.73]For example, my friend Tina Ge wants to write for a newspaper.
[08:58.24]She should be allowed to volunteer at the newspaper office once a week.
[09:03.10]On Friday afternoons, many students are sleepy after a long week of classes.
[09:09.34]Some students should be allowed to have Friday afternoons off44 to volunteer and help others.
[09:16.11]Should I be allowed to make my own decisions46?
[09:26.82]Many teenagers have hobbies.
[09:30.19]But sometimes these hobbies can get in the way of schoolwork, and parents migh worry about their child's success47 at school.
[09:39.38]Teenagers often think they should be allowed to practice48 their hobbies as8 much as they want.
[09:46.46]Do you agree5?
[09:47.72]Liu Yu, a fifteen-year-old from Shandong, is a running49 star.
[09:46.72]He is in his school running team, and has always wanted to be a professional50 athlete51. [09:53.69]However, his parents won't allow him to train as much as he would like to .
[09:59.94]"Of course52 we want to see Liu Yu achieve53 his dreams," says Mr Liu, "and we know how much he loves running.
[10:09.18]That's great, and my wife55 and I have watched him in every one of his races.
[10:15.24]We have nothing against56 running!
[10:17.80]But we do think that our son needs to be realistic57.
[10:22.03]Now he is getting older, he needs to think about what will happen if he doesn't become a professional runner58 in the end."
[10:30.66]Liu Yu doesn't really agree.
[10:33.82]"Well, I think I should be allowed to make decisions for myself59," he says.
[10:40.06]"My parents have always taught60 me the importance61 of working hard and not just to do what I enjoy.
[10:47.32]I understand this.
[10:49.18]But I'm serious62 about running.
[10:51.53]Being a professional runner is the only thing I have ever19 wanted to do."
[10:57.30]Mr and Mrs Liu believe that Liu Yu should study hard in the evenings, and so they don't allow him to practice running on school nights.
[11:08.35]"I know this might63 seem64 strict," says Mrs Liu, "but we think we're doing the right thing.
[11:15.61]He has to understand that very few65 people can become professional athletes66.
[11:21.57]It's a very difficult dream54 to achieve.
[11:24.81]We don't allow him to practice every day because we think he needs to spend time on his homework."
[11:25.06]But Liu Yu still doesn't agree.
[11:28.72]"I know my parents care67 about me," he says.
[11:32.77]"But they are always talking about what wil happen if I don't succeed68.
[11:37.83]But I will succeed!
[11:39.37]I think I should be allowed to make this decision45 for myself.
[11:44.23]Only then will I have a chance69 of achieving70 my dream."
