you ought to be growing 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 all 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 (抓紧) 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 round listening 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 at 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 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 respect you for who you area. That"s the only kind of
popularity that really counts.

If you get into such arguments, try to think about the story about the six blind men and the elephant.
The first blind man who felt the elephant"s trunk said it was like a snake. The second who felt the elephant"s
side said it was like a wall, while the third said it was like a spear as he touched the animal"s tusk. The fourth,
who got hold of the elephant"s tail insisted that it was like a rope. The fifth man said it looked like a tree as he
put his arms around one of the elephant"s legs. The sixth, who was tall and got hold of the elephant"s ears,
said it was like a huge fan.
Each man"s idea of the animal came from his own experience. So if someone disagrees with you about a
"simple fact", it"s often because his experience in the matter is different from yours.
To see how hard it is for even one person to make up his mind about a "simple fact", try this simple
experiment. Get three large bowls. Put ice water in one. Put hot water in the second. Put lukewarm water in
the third. Now put your left hand in the ice water. Put your right hand in the hot water. After thirty seconds,
put both hands in the lukewarm water. Your right hand will tell you the water is cold. Your left hand will tell
you it"s hot!

C. it"s hard for a person to make up his mind about a simple fact
D. don"t care too much about simple facts
More than half of its 100,000 residents rely on aid from the government. Only 50% of students at
Bushwick High School graduate in four years.
Some people might say, "We should help these poor kids who have so many challenges." But Malaak
Compton-Rock looks at the teens in Bushwick and says, "Go to help kids who have even bigger challenges
than you do." She believes that once young people see the power they have to make things better, they
can handle their own problems more easily. So her service group, the Angel Rock Project, took 30 Bushwick
kids to Soweto, in South Africa, to help poor families there. Soweto is a township outside the city of
Johannesburg. The effort, called Journey for Change, aims to show that any kid can change the world.
"Kids in Bushwick face pressure to drop out of school or become involved in gangs and drugs." Says
Compton-Rock. "We want them to live a life of purpose and service."
In Soweto, many parents have died of AIDS, a deadly disease. When that happens, a grandparent or a
child must lead the family. The Bushwick volunteers helped such families. They tended vegetable gardens,
cared for babies and bought groceries.
"The saddest thing was when we visited an orphanage (孤儿院) and I helped a little boy who had been
abandoned because he had HIV, the virus that causes AIDS," says Queen Clyde, 12. "It"s been good to be
on this trip. But what"s also important is what we do when it"s finished. That"s what counts." " I never
appreciated what I had until I saw some people who had nothing," says Sadara Lewis, 12 "It"s really changed
my attitude. I want to make a difference."
The trip was two weeks long. But the kids, aged 12 to 15, will spend all year speaking about their
experience, fund-raising and more.

In Pressure, everyone struggled to be the very best. When women 4 birth, they would compete to have
the baby with the 5 cry. There were violent competitions in every aspect of life. Because 6 was the index
(指数) of success, people were always 7 making money, with no time for relaxation.
8 , over in Pleasure, the motto was "As long as you like it, do it." People 9 without pressure and could
do 10 they liked. Children played computer games day and night. At school, teachers didn"t care 11 the
