小力买了7支铅笔,小文买了和小力同样多的铅笔,他俩一共买了多少支铅笔?□○□=□(支) 答案:【答案】7+7=14(支)【解析】略I heard many parents complaining that their teenage
children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing
away 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
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 (紧握) 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 (聚在一起)
round listening to 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 out 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 popularity of their
children. All this adds up to a great barrier 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 are. That is
the only kind of popularity that really counts.
