Passage 20
Making peace with your parents
As a teenager, you're going through big changes physically and mentally. Your interests are growing. 1 Here is the challenge: Teenagers need to explore the world in new ways, and parents need to protect them from the dangers that exist(存在) in that world. These conflicts(冲突) can easily set off fireworks in otherwise calm houses. Sometimes conflicts can't be avoided. But by paying attention to the building blocks of successful relationships, you can work towards making home a happy and healthy place for you and your parents.
For example, try to find a time to talk when your parents are not angry, tired, busy or hungry. A good time to talk is when you're all relaxed. Timing is everything. If the conversation begins to turn into an argument(争执), you'd better calmly ask to stop the conversation for now. ______ 2 ______ Listen to what your parents are saying, and repeat it back to them. This shows them that you're listening. It also gives them a chance to clear things up if you're not on the same page. Respect is the building block of good communication. People who respect each other and care about each other's feelings can disagree without things getting ugly. You are more likely to get along with your parents and have more independence if your parents believe in you.
How do you build trust? 3 Some teens find that doing fun activities with their parents can improve their relationships. Sometimes we forget that parents are more than rule-makers—they're interesting people who like to watch movies and go shopping—just like their children!
What do you do if you are trying your best, but your relationship with your parents continues to be unsuccessful? 4 You can find supportive adults, such as a teacher or a coach, who can listen to you. Remember you can only change your own behaviour. Your parents are the only ones who can change theirs.
A. You may consider looking for outside help.
B. Trust comes by doing what you say you're going to do.
C. And then you'll be able to accept what your parents say.
D. You can pick it up again when everyone is more relaxed.
E. Faced with the challenge, children don't know what to do.
F. And your desire(欲望) to take control of your own life is growing.

解析
【分析】
这是一篇说明文类的七选五阅读题，核心主题是指导青少年如何和父母建立良好的相处关系。解题时首先通读全文，明确文章整体行文逻辑：先点明青少年成长阶段的特点，引出亲子间容易出现冲突的问题，再依次给出沟通、建立信任、求助外部的解决方法。接下来逐空定位前后文的线索：
1. 第一空前文连续描述青少年成长中的变化，已经提到“你的兴趣在不断增长”，需要找能顺承描述青少年自身成长变化的选项，形成并列的递进逻辑。
2. 第二空前文提到如果对话演变成争执，最好冷静提出暂时终止当前对话，需要找承接“暂停对话”后续处理方式的选项，逻辑要连贯。
3. 第三空前文是设问句“你该如何建立信任？”，选项需要直接对应回答信任的建立方式，形成问答呼应。
4. 第四空前文提出假设：如果已经尽全力但和父母的关系依然没有改善该怎么办，后文提到可以找老师、教练这类能倾听你的支持性成年人，需要找引出“向外求助”的过渡选项。
最后排除和上下文逻辑不匹配的剩余干扰项，就能得到正确答案。
【解析】
1. 第一空：前文提到青少年身心经历巨大变化，兴趣不断增长，F选项“你掌控自己生活的欲望也在不断增长”和前文的“兴趣增长”形成并列递进，都是描述青少年成长阶段的特征，衔接自然，故选F。
2. 第二空：前文说明如果谈话变成争执，可以冷静要求暂时终止对话，D选项“当所有人都更放松的时候，你可以再重启对话”刚好承接暂停对话的后续安排，符合合理的沟通逻辑，故选D。
3. 第三空：前文抛出问题“你该如何建立信任？”，B选项“信任来自于说到做到”直接回答了建立信任的方法，前后问答呼应，故选B。
4. 第四空：前文提出如果尽力改善亲子关系依然无效该如何处理，后文提到可以找老师、教练等外部成年人倾诉求助，A选项“你可以考虑寻求外部帮助”刚好引出后文的具体求助渠道，逻辑连贯，故选A。
【答案】
1.F 2.D 3.B 4.A
