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 (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 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.
A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!

Believe it or not: the more TV you watch, the 78 (little) happiness you get. This is the result of a new study. It shows that unhappy people watch more TV than happy people.
Well, you may say that you enjoy 79 (watch ) TV. In fact, TV gives you happiness for a short time, but unhappiness for a long time.
Why? It is because, if you watch TV, you cannot take part in many other good 80 (activity). And sometimes, if you are unhappy, you 81 (usual) prefer being a couch potato(整天坐在沙发上看电视的人)，right? Watching TV is relaxing to you.
Then if you want to be happy, what should you do? You can read newspapers, visit 82 (you) friends, go to parties, … but don’t watch television all the time. Now turn off the TV, and take a walk outside. It’s the 83 (one) step to being happy!
