Young people are often unhappy when they are with their parents. They say that their parents don't understand them. They often think their parents are too strict with them and they are never given a free hand. (让…自由行动)

    Parents often find it difficult to win their children's trust and they seem to forget how they themselves felt when they were young. For example, young people like to do things without thinking much. It's one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can deal with difficult things.

    Young people often make their parents angry by clothes they want, the music they enjoy, the hairstyle they have and something else. But they don't like to cause any trouble. They just feel that in this way they can be cut off (阻断) from the old people's world and they want to make a new culture of their own.

If you plan to control your life, you'd better win your parents over (把…争取过来) and try to get them to understand you.

根据短文内容回答下列问题。

    We are a bit afraid when we talk about the A/H1N1 flu(甲型H1N1流感).

    Flu

    The A/H1N1 flu sounds really scary and some people died of it. ⑶It is difficult for us to stop it. But it works like other kinds of flu. We catch it in the same way, and we can protect ourselves from the flu in some similar ways.

    ★Pandemic(大流行病)

    The A/H1N1 flu is a pandemic. ⑷The word "|pandemic" sounds like millions of people might die. But that's not what it means at all!

    The pandemic spreads(传播)over a whole country or the whole world. It doesn't mean a high death rate(比率), but just only large groups of people in the world may get it.

    Mask(口罩)

    A mask just keeps a person from breathing in the virus(病毒)that might be breathed out by someone. Wearing a mask isn't a bad idea, but it doesn't mean that the flu is much more dangerous than other kinds of flu.
