away from your parents You should be learning to stand on your own two feet But take a good look at the present rebellion It seems that teenagers are taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents Instead of striking out boldly on their own most of them are clutching 紧握 at one another s hands for reassurance They claim they want to dress as they please But they all wear the same clothes They set off in new directions in music But somehow they all end up huddled 聚在一起 round listening to the same record Their reason for thinking or acting in thus and such a way is that the crowd is doing it They have come out of their cocoon 蚕茧 into a larger cocoon It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be And many of today s parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path But the barrier is worth climbing over The path is worth following You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records You may have some thoughts that you don t care to share at once with your classmates Well go to it Find yourself Be yourself Popularity will come with the people who 5 respect you for who you are That is the only kind of popularity that really counts 56 In this passage the author wants to tell A teenagers to try to pursue their real selves B readers to try to be popular with people around C parents to try to control and guide their children D people to try

Our aim is to take our art to the world and make people understand what it is to move said David Belle the founder of parkour 跑酷 Do you love running It is a good exercise yet many people find it
