You're growing up． That means you're probably experiencing lots of changes， all at once． Your body is changing． It might even seem as if your entire self is changing． It can be confusing and even scary．1.And it's good!
Growing up means that you can do more， learn more， and start to make your mark on the world． In order for that to happen， your body produces chemicals called hormones that help both body and mind grow． Hormone levels change constantly， rising and falling．2.But it's partly to blame for intense emotions， surprising reactions， and mood swings．
Because of the way your brain develops， it is somewhat ruled by emotion now and through your teen years． As a result， growing up can seem like an emotional roller coaster!3.
◆Take care of yourself． If you eat right， sleep enough， and get good exercise， your brain will be much more able to deal with the stress．
◆4.When you feel your moods swinging or you're upset， or confused， some quiet time will allow you to gather your thoughts and get calmer．
◆Practice relaxing your body and deep breathing when you wake up and when you go to bed．5.Plus， when stuff happens during the day， you'll be able to calm yourself quickly with a deep breath or two before you react．Your body is changing．
A．Take a time-out．
B．But the truth is， it happens to every teen．
C．Work out regularly to keep physically fit．
D．This changing is needed for your body's development．
E．It will help you fall asleep-and start the morning right．
F．Here are a few things you can do to make the ride smoother．
G．Usually， these feelings settle down when you realize what is going on．
One of the most striking findings of a newly research in the UK is that of the people interviewed, one in two believes that it is becoming more difficult to meet someone to start a family with.
Why are many finding it increasingly difficult to start close relationships? Does modern life really make it harder to fall in love? Or are we making it harder for ourselves? It is certainly the case today that contemporary couples benefit in different ways from relationships. Women no longer rely upon partners for money or status. A man doesn’t expect his wife to be in sole (唯一的) charge of running his household and raising his children.
But perhaps the knowledge that we can live perfectly well without a partnership means that it takes much more to persuade people to abandon their independence.
In theory, finding a partner should be much simpler these days. Only a few generations ago, your choice of soul mate was limited by geography, social convention and family tradition. Although it was never clear, many marriages were essentially arranged. Now those barriers have been broken down. You can approach a builder or a brain surgeon in any bar in any city on any given evening. When the world is your oyster (牡蛎), you surely have a better chance of finding a pearl.
But it seems that the old conventions have been replaced by the limitation of choice. The expectations of partners are raised to an unmanageable degree: good looks, impressive salary, kind to grandmother, and right socks. There is no room for error in the first impression.
We think that a relationship can be perfect. If it isn’t, it should be ended. We work to protect ourselves against future heartache and don’t put in the hard emotional labor needed to build a strong relationship. Twelve-hour work at the office makes relaxed after-hours dating difficult. The cost of housing and child-raising creates pressure to have a stable income and career before a life partnership.

A. Women are responsible for housework.
B. Men begin to depend on women.

2.Why do people want to preserve their independence?

C. To avoid marriages. D. To live alone happily.

A. Mental headache in dating. B. Bad luck in finding a partner.
