13-year-old daughter told me that she was going to spend the afternoon at her friend jesses house. i didnt doubt it until i called jesses number to remind liz that it was her turn to walk the dog, and jesses mom picked up the phone and said, “i thought she and jesse were planning to be at your house.” it turned out that the two of them had decided to hang out at a coffee shop instead. when i questioned my daughter, she replied coldly, “whats the big deal? youre such a psycho(精神变态者).”can you say it is right or wrong for them to behave like that? their changeable personalities leave you

process of separation.” kids insisted on their individuality with behavior to purposely drive you crazy. its their way of saying, “i am my own person” - but doing it in a context thats safe and that

generations, americans believed that owning a home was undoubtedly good. our political leaders hammered home the point. franklin roosevelt held that a country of homeowners was “unconquerable.” homeownership could even save babies, save children, save families and save america. a house with a lawn and a fence wasnt just a nice place to live in or a risk-free investment; it was a way to transform a nation. no wonder leaders of all political types wanted to spend more than $100 billion a year on subsidies and tax breaks to encourage people to buy. but the dark side of homeownership is now all too apparent indeed, easy lending stimulated by the cult of homeownership may have triggered the financial crisis. housing remains a drag on the economy. existing-home sales in april dropped 27% from the prior month, worsening fears of a double-dip. and all that is just the obvious tale of a housing bubble and what happened when it popped. the real story is deeper and darker still.for the better part of a century, politics, industry and culture lined up to create a fetish of the idea of buying a house. homeownership has done plenty of good over the decades; it has provided stability to tens of millions of families. yet by idealizing the act of buying a home, we have ignored the downsides. in the bubble years, lending standards slipped dramatically, allowing many americans to put far too much of their income into paying for their housing. and we ignored longer-term phenomena too. homeownership contributed to the hollowing out of cities and kept renters out of the best neighborhoods. it fed americas overuse of energy and oil. it made it more difficult for those who had lost a job to find another. perhaps worst of all, it helped us become casually self-deceiving by telling ourselves that homeownership was a pathway to wealth and stable communities and better test scores, we avoided dealing with these frightening issues head-on. now, as the u.s. recovers from the biggest housing bust（破产）since the great depression, it is time to rethink how realistic our expectations of homeownership areand how much money we want to spend chasing them. many argue that homeownership should not be a goal pursued at all costs.63. political leaders wanted to spend money encouraging people to buy houses because_.a. owning a home was undoubtedly goodb. homeownership was unconquerable c. houses could save families and americad. homeownership could shape a country64. the underlined sentence in para. 2 means _.a. homeownership has quite a lot of bad effects b. there might be another housing breakdown in the u.s. c. the existing-home sales will keep decreasing in the u.s.d. the result of homeownership is much worse than it appears65. it can be inferred from para. 3 that _.a. it is hard for americans to get a home loan b. it is the way to wealth to have ones own housec. many americans choose to live out of urban areasd. homeownership has made many people out of work66. what is the authors attitude towards homeownership?a. favorable. b. ambiguous. c. cautious. d. optimistic.dthis is voa. the national cryptologic museum is on fort george g. meade, a military base near washington, dc. the method of hiding exact meanings is called coding. people have used secret codes throughout history to protect important information. the national cryptologic museum celebrated 60 years of cryptologic excellence in 2012. one event there marked the sixtieth anniversary of the national security agency. two former nsa workers shared their memories of operating a code machine called sigaba.in 1940, an american woman named genevieve grotjan found some information being repeated in japanese coded messages. her discovery helped the united states understand secret japanese diplomatic messages. after the united states understood the code, it was possible to study messages from the japanese ambassador to germany and to his supervisors in japan.understanding these messages helped the united states prepare for a possible war in the pacific with japan. after the attack on pearl harbor. the american naval commander in the pacific ocean was chester nimitz. his forces were much smaller than the japanese naval forces. and the japanese had been winning many victories. joseph rochefort had worked for several months
