1、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. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap.
Don't argue with your parents. Your parents probably won't consider (考虑) 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. 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 he 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) for them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.
Talk about your opinions. Tell your parents what you care about and why. Understanding your opinions might help them see your purposes (目的) in life.

2、A few months ago, a friend of mine saw the housework chart (图表) in our home for the first time and talked with one of our girls.
"I think you are all great helpers for your mom."
"Yeah, Mom and Dad have so many kids, so they don't have to do anything."
That's right, my children. You now know your place in the family. Snacks and TV, here I come! I don't need to clean a thing in my house. Most of this is because I have older kids now.
We put our chores into two groups: everyday chores and paid chores. Here are everyday chores in our home: clear the table and chairs, do the dishes and sweep the floor after each meal and take out the rubbish. We also pay our kids to do chores. These chores are usually our weekly cleaning tasks, such as washing the car and cleaning the living room.
We don't usually give them lots of instructions (指示) before they do the chores. They can find out how things work themselves. As they have more experience, we ask them to do better. And we're glad they can look after themselves.

3、Is there something in your community that could be changed? Is there a person in your neighborhood who could offer help? If you're hoping for someone to make a difference, that someone could be you!
Volunteering your time is a great way to make a difference in your community. And you'll feel good about doing something that helps people or improves the places around you.
This past summer, my friends and I noticed how messy our neighborhood park was. We wanted it to be different. We worked without parents and teachers to clean up the park. We had a great time making the park even better than before, and now the whole neighborhood is able to share and enjoy it again.
Maybe cleaning up a park isn't your choice, though. No problem! You can turn anything that matters to you into a volunteer project. Do you like playing chess, reading, or spending time with your pet? You can volunteer to do what you love to do. For example, you could help at an old people's home, simply by talking or playing games with them to make their days better. If you're great at math or English, you could volunteer to be a homework helper at your school. You're always needed to walk dogs or play with cats. Or you can collect things for hopeless people, such as soap and toothbrushes.
You see, there is something for everyone. Whatever you do as a volunteer, your time will be enjoyed and that always feels good. Kids everywhere are making a difference by volunteering. You can, too!
