It’s not easy being a teenager — nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you’ll still be there for him when he needs you.
    Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving, consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’t insist he tell you what’s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ll refuse to talk. Instead, let him attempt to solve things by himself. At the same time, remind him that you’re always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager’s privacy. Never read his mail or listen in on personal conversations.
    Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for 15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least all equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation. Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part-time job.
Questions 23 to 25 are based on the passage you have just heard.
23. What is the main purpose of the passage?
24. What should parents teach a teenager when using the telephone according to the passage?
25. What should parents do in raising a teenager according to the passage?

选项 A、To tell parents how to respect a teenager.
B、To tell parents how to understand a teenager.
C、To tell parents how to help a teenager grow up.
D、To tell parents how to get along with a teenager.

答案 C

解析 选项均以不定式开头且选项概括性很强,表明本题可能考查短文主旨。短文开头部分提到…important to give…child the space…to grow…you’ll still be there…when he needs you,后面内容都是围绕这句展开的,由此可知,短文是想告诉父母如何帮助青少年成长,故答案为C)、短文主旨一般在短文开头或结尾部分提及,是听音重点。
