 短文还原

Chen Yujie, 15, studies at a boarding school in Ningbo, Zhejiang.  It was not a short ride home and the trips were tiring. Chen hoped her parents could put the money on a bank card, so she didn't have to travel so often.

"It's usually the most relaxing time for our family，" said Chen.

She chose the right time. After a few turns of lobbying(游说), her parents finally agreed with Chen.  So they have to choose a right time.

US magazine Highlights recently surveyed 1，521 kids aged 6－12 in the country, asking questions like "" Results show that American kids seem to know when their parents are most receptive(乐于接受的). Meal time is discovered to be their most favorite time to talk to their parents. Bed time comes second, followed by time spent in the car.

Chinese teenagers seem to have a similar tendency(倾向) over the problem.Qianjiang Daily，a newspaper in Zhejiang, did a survey about it. So do you have anything to talk to your parents about? Choose a good time.

A．When you want to talk to your parents about something important, when is the best time to do it?  B．She decided to discuss it with her parents during TV time after dinner.  C．They found that most American teenagers would choose bed time to talk to their parents.  D．She used to go back to her home in Cixi every week to get money from her parents.  E．The result shows most teenagers in the city would choose meal time to talk to their parents.  F．For most teenagers like Chen, talking to parents can be difficult or even worrying.

Not only adults but also teenagers have problems in their life.Here is a survey  the main problems of teenagers.

They feel stressed because they have too  homework to do both at school and at home.They have lots of exams to take.And parents usually send them to different  at weekends.They don't have their own time to do what they are  in.

Now more and more teenagers are  short­sighted.They often read in bed or keep  for a long time without having a rest.Some of them are  about playing computer games.Some spend too much time watching TV.Another serious problem among teenagers is that many of  are becoming fat.They eat too much junk food, but they take exercise.

I think teenagers should think  ways to deal with the problems.They should make a plan for study and hobbies and find time to relax as much as possible.
