Everybody can suffer from stress. No matter what your age is, you can feel stressed out by things that are happening in your life.
Teenagers, however, have many more opportunities to get stressed than people in any other age group. Being a teenager is hard. You are not a child any more, but you are not an adult, even though you have to deal with some very grown-up problems and decisions.
Families can be one of the biggest causes of stress, such as problems with parents arguing at home or problems with brothers and sisters. Teenagers also have a lot of stress from school, either from their teachers or from their friends. Some teenagers also feel stressed about choosing their education after high school. Getting a place at university can be very difficult and some cannot afford to go to university. The stress about getting a job when finishing school is hard for some teenagers. There are so many young people finishing school and not enough jobs for them.
Sadly, there is nothing we can do to remove these causes of stress from the 1ives of teenagers, but you can learn the best way to deal with it. Talking to people is one of the best ways to deal with stress. It may sound simple, but it is true. A problem shared is a problem halved.Why is being a teenager often difficult?
| A．Because even though you are not an adult, you must deal with adult problems. |
| B．Because even though you are an adult, you must deal with children's problems. |
| C．Because even though you are a teenager, you must do a lot of homework. |
| D．Because adults often make them feel stressed. |
Families can add to the stress a teenager might experience _____.
| A．by asking them to go to university |
| B．by helping them with their homework |
| C．as teenagers quarrel with their parents, and their brothers or sisters |
| D．as families never support their children enough |
Why can leaving school be a stressful time for teenagers?
| A．Because they will be leaving their favorite teachers. |
| B．Because many people's favorite memories are at school. |
| C．Because they may worry about getting a place at university. |
| D．Because they may worry about becoming an adult. |
Why can finding a job after finishing school be difficult?
| A．Because there is a lot of competition for jobs. |
| B．Because there are no jobs. |

Hands play an important part in our daily life. But do you know which of your two hands you use more? Very few people use both hands equally well .Most of us are right-handed. Only about five people out of a hundred are left-handed. New-born babies can take hold of things with either of their hands, but in about two years they usually use their right hands. Scientists don’t know why this happens.
Monkeys are our close relatives(亲戚) in the animal world. Scientists have found that monkeys like to use one of their hands more than the other, but it can be either hand. There are as many right-handed monkeys as left-handed ones. Next time you visit a zoo, watch the monkeys carefully, you will see that some of them will use their right hands and others will use their left hands. But most of the people use their right hands better and this makes life difficult for those left-handed people. We live in a right-handed world.How many people among 100 people use their left hands better?

Are you sorry for not traveling during the National Day ? If you stay at home at that time, I think you are very lucky. Why? Because there are too many people everywhere. In many places of interest in China, it’s too crowded to do anything.
Look at the picture. It was too crowded in the West Lake on October 1st, 2013. You even couldn’t take photos for you or your friends. All what we could see where people. It was reported that there were about 13 people per meter by the lake. My friends told me they could see nothing but many tourists(游客) on the Broken Bridge(断桥). “We couldn’t walk if the people in front of us didn’t walk,” he said. He showed us a photo near the West Lake. In the photo, we hardly found him out, there were too many people.
So some people give the advice that we should not have the gold week(黄金周) any more. But other people say no about this advice. What’s your idea of it? Are you sorry now for not traveling during the gold week? I love staying at home more than traveling next National Day.
