experience and avoid making silly mistakes.If you dont take their advice,you may still get experience but in a hard way.Besides,your parents may directly point out your weaknesses that your peers wouldnt.So,listening to your parents advice can make you smarter and help you grow mature.3.Some say a good relationship starts with good communication.What can you do to strengthen communication with

Share with them my feelings,problems or ambitions.Culture exploration What are the differences between the traditional Chinese parenting style and the western parenting style?Which one do you

attention to childrens individual personality and care more about their happiness.IV.Language application Absolute structure consists of a noun plus at least one other word,such as an adjective,a

text.Poor readers make many more fixations(eye stops)than good readers.Not only does this slow you down,but it inhibits comprehension because meaning is easier to pull from groups of words rather than from individual words or even single letters.Try to read in phrases of three or four words,especially in complete clauses and prepositional phrases.To develop the habit of reading in phrases,you may use a“/”to mark off phrases and to group them into group thoughts.Read the following sentences by dividing them into phrases,or thought groups.Examples:1.If your team does its job well,/your manager will speak kindly/about your group.2.She left the bedroom/a ridiculous mess,/the comforter on the floor,/the dress tossed aside./I strip off/the comforter,the blanket,sheets,/and pillows./Once she starts/feeding coins into/laundry machines,/shell appreciate/the years of clean clothes/Ive provided/for free.3.“All right/,”he says,/and carries the smelly package./As we walk back,/he tells me/about migrations of eels/to the Sargasso Sea:/how/eels come down/Dalmatian rivers/and swim across/the Mediterranean/and then the whole Atlantic,/until/they reach/the warm 4.Sargasso Sea./Here/they lay their
