    When you're a teenager, it seems that every time you say “I want to...”,someone answers“No, you can't.” Also, no part of your life is safe from the “prying(窥视的) eyes” of your parents. 15-year-old Debbie says, “My dad always wants to know where I am, and what time I'm going to be home.” Most parents do that. Do they have to know everything? They  ③  give us more freedom.Young people further complain that their parents do not respect(尊重) them. When something goes wrong,more parents just don't believe in their children. Without asking why, they think their kids are wrong. And not many parents allow their kids  ①  (choose) for themselves. Yes, it is true that your parents sometimes treat(对待) you like a little child. But remember that not too long ago you were really a child.Your parents still remember those childish mistakes that you used to  ②  (make). They want to protect you though you do not want them to do so.

    So, if you want to get more freedom, please try to understand your parents and do not lie to them. 尝试一种更友好的方式。If you want them to allow you to stay out late, don't just say, “All the other kids  ④  stay out late.” Tell them as much as you can about what you want to do and where you'll be and why it's important for you to stay out late. Then they  ⑤  just say “yes” .

    It is important to have good learning habits if you want to study, and this is especially true when it comes to online learning.

    Online learning is a process different from what you will find in a traditional school. The learning environment and methods are different.

When studying in a classroom, there is a lot of communication between the students and the teacher, but little interaction(互动)among the students, while online learning helps one student and another to interact very seriously and closely. So one of an online professor's roles is to encourage students to interact. Another is to guide discussion, it isn't the same as teachers do in a classroom.

    So how can you develop good learning habits in online learning? Here are some good suggestions. First, it is a good idea to prepare well for online learning. You can write down daily tasks and even weekly tasks that you want to complete. By doing so, you will have a good plan for achieving your goals. Second, you should spend as much time online as if you were going to regular courses. Also, always try to leave extra time to communicate with other students.

    Besides this, any post(帖子） you put up online shows who you are. So hand in your homework on time so that you don't fall behind.
