Some children even deliberately choose to go against their parents’ will. Several reasons may account for the conflict.First of all, children want to be free to choose their own friends, plan their own future, and run their own life in a more independent way than many parents allow. Also, young children desire to be understood by their parents, which most parents fail to do. Parents, on the other hand, expect too much of their children. They want their children to behave and have good academic performance at school.In my opinion, most problems between parents and children will disappear through joint efforts of both sides. Only with more communication and mutual respect can this problem be finally solved.录音原文：Text 1M: I was looking for a book, but I couldn’t find it on the shelf.W: Oh, somebody must have borrowed that book.Text 2W: Hello, is this Mr. Wu?M: Yes, hello, Jane.W: One of my relatives is sending a package from Japan to me and asking for my address, but I don’t know it. So I’m calling to ask you.Text 3M: I’ve got two tickets for the film. Would you like to go with me?W: I’m sorry. I’m afraid not.M: Why?W: A patient has just arrived. He was badly hurt in a traffic accident. He is due to be operated on at once.Text 4M: The car was a total loss. Did you see it？W: Yes. Can you imagine three women and a baby were in the horrible accident without being hurt?Text 5M: Excuse me, how much are the tickets?W: They’re ten dollars each for the general public, but students’ tickets are half price. How many tickets do you want?Text 6W: What was that? Did you hear that? I think it came from over there, by Greg’s tent. M: Come on, Rachel. You’re just being silly. There’s nothing there. Go back to sleep. W: I am not! I know I heard something. What if it’s a wolf?M: Ther e is no wolf out there, Rachel. We’re camping near a lake. You might run into an angry duck… at worst.W: Ducks aren’t that big. Whatever made that noise was huge. I know it.M: Come on, Rachel. It’s probably just all in your imagination. You’ve been drivi ng all day to get here, so just get some rest.W: Well, I guess you’re right. I’ll feel better after a good night’s sleep. Text 7M: Hey, come on in.W: Thanks.M: I just made myself some coffee. Do you want some?W: No, thanks. I already had one this morning. But I like your kitchen.M: Thanks. I just painted it. So, I heard you have a pretty cool new job.W: Yeah, I am working for a company that does all kinds of special events.M: Oh, yeah? Like what?W: Well, at the moment, I’m helping to organize the birthday party for the owner of Air India. We’ll be flying in some musicians from Las Vegas to perform at the party next Monday.M: Wow, really? That sounds pretty expensive.W: It will be! We’re renting out a huge space for the event. We’ll be spending 10000 dollars on flowers, 25000 dollars on food, and 20000 dollars on drinks.M: That sounds crazy. So, what will you do at the party?W: Oh, I’ll just be there to make sure everything goes smoothly.Text 8W: Andy was acting kind of crazy today. Did you notice?M: Yeah, he’s under a lot of stress. There was a problem with the project in Paris. W: Well, working for him has its ups and downs, but today wasn’t pleasant.M: I know. He’s not the best boss, but he’s OK, I think. Anyway, what are you going to buy here?W: Well. I’m going to get these lamb chops, I think. The sign says they’re on sale. M: Oh, you shouldn’t get them. You should get this other brand instead.W: Really? Why?M: The label says these lamb chops come from New Zealand. We’re here in Londo n, which is pretty far away! It’s not good for the environment to eat food that has totravel so far. A lot of energy is wasted and a lot of pollution is created to get it here.W: Well, I can see what you mean. This other brand is cheaper, anyway, and it’s from lambs raised in the UK.M: I always try to buy local foods –they’re fresher, and they support the local economy…Text 9M: Now Mrs. Jones, it seems you’ve put on qui te a bit since last month. Have you been following the diet sheet I gave you?W: Yes, doctor… Well, most of the time. But I get really hungry late in the evening sometimes, and I just have to have an extra snack before bedtime.M: Late night snacks, huh? What kind of snacks?W: Cookies usually. But just a small pack… usually.M: Right. And what about exercise? Have you been exercising properly?W: Well, I wanted to, but the weather’s been so bad these last few weeks…M: Mrs. Jones, you’re at least 40 kilos overweight, and it’s seriously damaging your health. You also have dangerously high blood pressure. You must follow the diet sheet carefully every day. No snacks, and no food at all after 7:00 p.m. And you really must try to exercise a little bit every day.Text 10Hi, my name is Ross, and I study at Oxford University. I go to the university gym about two to three times a week. My main reasons for going are to keep healthy and to lose weight. But it’s also great fun. The gym has a good atmosphere: there’s music, TV, magazines, newspapers and friendly people. I usually go on my own, but I always meet friends there, and we chat and relax after we’ve worked out.I usually run on a machine to warm up. After that, I use the weight machines a lot. I’m trying to build my arm and chest muscles. I want to look good as well as keep healthy. After taking exercise at the gym, I always feel really good. I feel more energetic and positive about life and I can focus better on my work too. So the benefits of going to the gym aren’t only physical but mental.。

By the way, what’s your best lesson in highschool?M: Physics. I really enjoy it.W: That’s fine. Have you discussed this with your parents?M: Oh, sure. My parents said I should decide it myself.W:OK, you can work here, but you’d better go to college if you have a chance. Goo d luck, young man!M: Thank you, madam! Good-bye.(Text 8)W: Mr. Huang, I’m going to teach in Ola very soon, perhaps next month.M: Congratulations, Miss Lan! You should be happy. Y ou see, Ola is a big city; there are a lot ofinteresting things to see.W: Yes, that’s why I’ve come to you. I have mixed feelings, you see, I’m excited but I’m also abit worried.M: What bothers you?W: You see it’s this: someone told me that people from Ola look down upon peop le from other places. Is this true?M: Oh, yes. Some people do. I hate this kind of attitude, I’m sure not everyone in Ola is likethat. Do you look down upon others in the class?W: Of course not! I often help them. And I’ve learned a lot from the people coming from otherplaces. They are all hard-working. Most of them are talented.M: Anyway, you will start a new life in a beautiful city.W: Yes. I feel excited. I’ll e-mail to you when I settle down.M: Thank you. Then good-bye and good luck!(Text 9)M: Maria. What can you tell us about your plans for the future?W: Well, I’ve been considering taking a year out after I graduate. You know, maybe travel around the world and see some different countries.M: What do you hope to gain from traveling?W: I’ve always been interested in seeing different places, and experiencing different cultures, soit will give me a chance to experience these thing s at first hand rather than read about themin a book. But I also think that the experience I gain will help me find a good job when Icome back.M: C an you explain why you think traveling will help you find a job?W: Well, the way I see it, a modern business environment is changing. Therefore, to be successful in one’s life, it is imp ortant to be able to accept changes.M: What do you mean?W:I mean that you should be willing to change your attitudes, and even working habits to suitthe ever changing environment. And if you’ve spent some time traveling, it means that youhave to get used to different ideas and ways of doing things, as well as simpler things, suchas food and climate.M: It sounds reasonab le.W: I also believe that traveling will teach me to be independent, as well as to value other people.M: Why do you believe traveling will help you to value other people?W: As you know, when you’re traveling you can’t get help from your family, so you have todepend on your friends, or even turn to unknown people.M: Oh, I see. You’re right, Maria.(Text 10)Hello, everyone. My name’s Karl Roberts, and I’ll be your teacher of this course, Language and Culture.
