All of us go through some difficult times as we approach teenage years. It's the age when we have to deal with the most 36 in our life. This transition (过渡) from childhood to adulthood is 37 for some, but rough for others. The most important thing about being a teenager is 38 . When we are teenagers, we would get blamed or even punished for anything wrong we do. Unlike before when we were small kids, even if we made a big trouble, we didn’t need to pay anything for it.

It’s all not so 39 about being a teenager though. We don’t have to have our 40 take us to somewhere we want to go or we couldn’t go before. We can have 41 with friends or even alone, which we couldn’t have because we were too 42 to know what pleasure is! It's a very enjoyable time of life. During this age, we are old enough to 43 what is good for us, and make decisions by ourselves without 44 others.

But like the saying goes ‘‘All good things must come to an end, but all bad things can continue 45 .” During this period, we are having much 46 for our studies. If we don't pass, we won’t get jobs, and things will take a turn for the 47 . With the present world economy in _48 , we have to do really, really well in our 49 for a job. Adults say that their _50 is the hardest part of life. But I think the transition from a kid to an adult is much 51_ than being already an adult. What we do in our teenage years will 52 what we become and how we lead our life in the future.

In conclusion, it is quite 53 that parents put much pressure on an already stressed out teenager. If they realized that, living condition for teenagers would be much better._54 for the teens ourselves we should get to know what is best for us. What's more, we should understand the right 55 of life we choose at this age can make us happy for the rest of our existence.

36. A. chances B. changes C. feelings D. expectations

37. A. smooth B. practical C. demanding D. necessary

38. A. knowledge B. independence C. confidence D. responsibility

39. A. easy B. strange C. bad D. interesting

40. A. guides B. partners C. parents D. friends

41. A. fun B. trouble C. relation D. business

42. A. proud B. young C. smart D. mature

43. A. predict B. remember C. imagine D. understand

44. A. guiding B. helping C. inviting D. consulting

45. A. occasionally B. temporarily C. forever D. increasingly

46. A. pressure B. passion C. motivation D. panic

47. A. better B. worse C. fewer D. more

A

Homonym: a word that has the same spelling and the same pronunciation as another world, but a different meaning

Same spelling, different meaning

Imagine, then a situation where two words are spelt and pronounced exactly the same way, but have completely different meanings. Welcome to the world of homonyms. Take, for example, the word ‘fail’ --- it can be a kind of festival, and adjective to describe the color of your hair or how you should play a game.

Don’t take it literally

So how do you know which meaning someone is referring to? --- You don’t, except by the context. Obviously, if someone asks you to ‘give them a hand’, they don’t want you to remove what is at the end of your arm.

What’s in a name?

Sometimes even the context doesn’t help much --- the result can be amusing. These sentences play with the double meaning of a noun:

I used to be a banker, but I lost interest.

Have you heard about the cross-eyed teacher who couldn’t control his pupils?

A small boy swallowed some coins and had to go to hospital. When his grandmother phoned to ask how he was, the nurse said: ‘No change yet’.

More ambiguity

And these examples play with the different meanings of a verb:

I wondered why the ball was getting bigger. Then it hit me.

No one knew she had a dental implant until it came out in a conversation.

A boiled egg in the morning is hard to beat.

Double trouble

And sometimes a word can be a noun and a verb, but have different meanings. Can you work this one out?

Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.

If you like these homonyms, you will be pleased to know that English has plenty more!

Explanations of jokes in the text

I used to be banker, but I lost interest. (I became bored with the job / I lost money)

Have you heard about the cross-eyed teacher who couldn’t control his pupils? (students / parts of his eyes)

A small boy swallowed some coins and had to go to hospital. When his grandmother phoned to ask how he was, the nurse said: ‘No change yet’. (no difference in the situation / no money)

I wondered why the ball was getting bigger. Then it hit me. (the ball hit me / I suddenly realized)

No one knew she had a dental implant until it came out in a conversation. (became known / fell out)

A boiled egg in the morning is hard to beat. (can’t be better / difficult to mix with a fork)

Time flies like an arrow. (time goes quickly) Fruit flies like a banana. (insects enjoy eating fruit.)
