本文就青少年在成長(zhǎng)過程中如何避免與父母爭(zhēng)吵，如何處理與父母的關(guān)系提出了一些建議。

【1】句意：當(dāng)你準(zhǔn)備好自己做決定去哪里和什么時(shí)候去時(shí)，你的父母將會(huì)限制你。

hard困難的；ready準(zhǔn)備；sorry對(duì)不起；unusual不同尋常的。根據(jù)空后的“to make your own decisions about where and when to go自己做決定去哪里和什么時(shí)候去”及后面的“your parents will put limits on you你的父母會(huì)限制你”可知，前后是轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系；結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可知，此處是短語be(feel) ready to do準(zhǔn)備好做某事。故選B。

【2】句意：所以你可能會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)你和父母的爭(zhēng)吵比以前更頻繁。

arguing with與某人爭(zhēng)吵；depending on依賴于；making fun of取笑；taking the place of取代。根據(jù)前面“your parents will put limits on you你的父母會(huì)限制你”可知，與父母產(chǎn)生不同意見時(shí)可能會(huì)“爭(zhēng)吵”，結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可知，此處是說與父母爭(zhēng)吵argue with your parents。故選A。

【3】句意：提前爭(zhēng)論規(guī)則，而不是在最后一刻。

Describe描述；Change改變；Discuss討論；Repeat重復(fù)。根據(jù)前面一段“Here are some tips for you on how to keep away from and handle arguments with your parents. 以下是一些關(guān)于你如何遠(yuǎn)離和處理與你的父母爭(zhēng)論的建議” 可知，下面是一些建議；根據(jù)空后“the rules ahead of time and not at the last minute”結(jié)合選項(xiàng)可知，是提前爭(zhēng)論規(guī)則，為自己爭(zhēng)取到更多的利處，argue the rules爭(zhēng)論規(guī)則。故選C。

【4】句意：要求他們讓你解釋一下這些規(guī)則讓你什么感受，并建議你認(rèn)為什么是正確的規(guī)則。

right正確的；interesting有趣的；new新的；simple簡(jiǎn)單的。根據(jù)后面“Your parents may be willing to listen to your ideas and use them when making rules that you both agree on.你的父母可能愿意傾聽你的想法，并在制定你們雙方都同意的規(guī)則時(shí)使用它們”可知，前面是說你認(rèn)為什么是“正確的”規(guī)定，這樣父母才會(huì)在制定規(guī)則時(shí)使用它們。故選A。

【5】句意：你將會(huì)通過談?wù)摱�不是大喊大叫，來向你的父母表明你是�?fù)責(zé)和成熟的。

following下列的；changing改變；testing測(cè)試；shouting大喊。根據(jù)本句“show your parents that you are responsible and mature表明你是負(fù)責(zé)和成熟的”及“by talking”可知，空處是說“不是通過大喊而是通過談?wù)摗�，這樣才能表現(xiàn)出自己負(fù)責(zé)和成熟的一面。故選D。

【6】句意：建議一些你全家在一起參加的活動(dòng)。

lessons課程；activities活動(dòng)；skills技能；habits習(xí)慣。根據(jù)后面“For example, you can go on a hike on a sunny day or go for a bike ride at weekends with them. 例如，你可以在一個(gè)陽光明媚的日子徒步旅行，或者在周末和他們一起騎自行車”可知，這是一些周末活動(dòng)，所以空處是說activities活動(dòng)。故選B。
