same music, and are friends. is this a good thing? sometimes, when mr. ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter, elizabeth, listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy, such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.“i would never have said to my mom, hey, the new weezer album is really great. how do you like it?” says ballmer. “there was just a complete gap in taste.”music was not the only gulf. from clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations, earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits.today, the generation gap has not disappeared, but it is getting narrow in many families. conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago. now they are comfortable and common. and parentchild activities, from shopping to sports, involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue into adulthood.no wonder greeting cards today carry the message, “to my mother, my best friend.”but family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents. “theres still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents out there, but there is a change happening,” says kerrie, a psychology professor at lebanon valley college. “in the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents.” family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving roles and attitudes. they see the 1960s as a turning point. great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say. “my parents were on the before side of that change, but todays parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the after side,” explains mr. ballmer. “its not something easily accomplished by parents these days, because life is more difficult to understand or deal with, but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”61. the underlined word gulf in para.3 most probably means _.a. interest b. difference c. distance d. separation62. which of the following shows that the generation gap is disappearing?a. parents help their children develop interests in more activities.b. parents put more trust in their childrens abilities.c. parents share more interests with their children.d. parents and children talk more about sex and drugs.63. the change in todays parent-child relationship is _.a. new equality between parents and childrenb. more confusion among parentsc.1ess respect for parents from childrend. more strictness and authority on the part of parents64. by saying “todays parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the after side.” the author means that todays parents _.a. can set a limit to the change b. fail to take the change seriouslyc. follow the trend of the change d. have little difficulty adjusting to the change65. the purpose of the passage is to _.a. describe the difficulties todays parents have met withb. suggest the ways to handle the parentchild relationshipc. compare todays parentchild relationship with that in the pastd. discuss the development of the parentchild relationshipbif you have questions about developing your study practices,the first place to look isin our study guides. however, if you dont find the answers you needhere, or you feelthe guidancewould make more sense in the situation

necessary)are “tailor-made” toyour individual needs and completely secret. what to expect from an individual advice session our individual advice sessions are quite informal and tailored to your

future.everyone works differently, so we may makea number ofsuggestionsit will be up to you to try them out and see whatworks best for you. if youd like to discuss acoursework assignment which you are currently working on,it may be helpful if you can email your work to the adviser you are seeing before your meeting (contact details are here), with a note saying what you would like to discuss. as sessions are quite short,you might preferthat we spent the time discussing how you can develop your work, rather than reading it!please note:we cannot providesubject-specific advice. for this, it is best to consult your course tutor. if you would prefer to talk to someone else, try your personal tutor, or the senior tutor in your department. your department or school office will be able to advise on who that is. we do not proof-read work. see our guide to effective proof-readingto help you to develop your own proof-readingpractices. study advisers are not trained to teach english as a foreign language. for basic principles relating to common errors in academic english, please see our guides to academic writing. if you feel you need more detailed help, there are also links on the academic writing pages to more comprehensive websites, including some with interactive exercises.ifenglish is not your first language, the in-sessional english support programme (iesp)provides training courses

not prevent the damp cold of denniss swamp (沼泽地) creeping into their bones. it was a strange place. martin and tom wished that they had not accepted jacks dare. they liked camping, but not near this swamp.“so,” martin asked as they sat watching the hot coals. “how did this place get its name? ”“are you sure you want to hear it? its a scary story,” warned jack.“of course!” cried out tom. “if there were anything to be scared of, you wouldnt have chosen this place!”“ok, but dont say i didnt warn you,” said jack, and he began his tale.“way back in time, a man called dennis tried to start a farm here. he built that cottage over there to live in . in those days, the area looked quite differentit was covered with tall trees and the swamp was a crystal-clear river. after three hard years, dennis had cleared several fields and planted crops. he was so proud of his success that he refused to listen to advice.“ you are clearing too much land, warned one old man. the land is a living thing. it will hit back at you if you abuse it. “ silly fool, said dennis to himself. if i clear more land, i can grow more crops. ill become wealthier. hes just jealous!”“dennis continued to chop down trees. small animals that relied on them for food and shelter were destroyed. he was so eager to expand his farm that he did not notice the river flowing slowly towards his door. he did not notice salt seeping to the surface of the land. he did not notice swamp plants choking all the native plants.”“what happened? ” martin asked. it was growing colder. he trembled, twisting his body closer to the fire.“the land hit
