阅读短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true.
Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (消除代沟).
Don’t argue (争辩) with your parents. Don’t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won’t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can’t express yourself well if you are angry. Go to someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.
Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.
Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.
Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.

It was three o’clock. A man was walking down a street in the north of England. He was wearing a dark suit and carrying a suitcase. His name was Terry and lived away from home for twenty years. In fact, he was in prison (监狱) abroad.
Terry was feeling totally depressed because everything in his hometown changed. The park where he used to play was now a car park. The house where he was born disappeared and in its place, ironically (具有讽刺意味地), was a bank. Terry wanted to have a cup of coffee in the old small restaurant where he used to go with his friend after school, but it became a fast food restaurant. He entered it, sat down, and asked for a cup of coffee. Then he felt sadder when he thought of what he saw.
While paying for the coffee, he found an old ticket in his wallet. It was for a pair of shoes he took to be repaired the day before killing someone 20 years ago.

Terry told him that he had lived in Australia for the past twenty years and that he forgot to pick up the shoes before he left England. The shoe repairer disappeared into the back of the shop.
