Dear Jane,

    Thanks for your e-mail. I have ever had the same experience. I even {#blank#}1{#/blank#}（争吵）with my parents. But now, I {#blank#}2{#/blank#}（理解）them. We are growing up, so we don't like {#blank#}3{#/blank#}（依靠）on them, but often, it's hard for our parents to {#blank#}4{#/blank#}（想象）this. To them ,we are still children and they want to help us.

    Sometimes, it's hard for you to talk to your parents. Here's an idea: Write your mother and father a{#blank#}5{#/blank#}（信）. In it, tell your parents what you are thinking about. Then they {#blank#}6{#/blank#} （或许）will understand you better. In your free time, you'd better {#blank#}7{#/blank#}（提供） some help for your parents. For example, you can help your parents do {#blank#}8{#/blank#}（家务活）. You can {#blank#}9{#/blank#} （扫）the floor, take out the{#blank#}10{#/blank#} （垃圾）.In order to get on well with your parents, you must try your best to do everything.

    What's more, you can describe your friends to your parents and tell them more about you and your life.

    I hope this helps!

Jimmy
