12．Getting your teen to think beyond his own immediate needs can be more difficult than cracking a nut with a plastic fork．But don't worry．It's not impossible．There are many ways to encourage your teen to care about those outside his immediate circle of friends．As he begins to have responsibility towards others，he will realize he feels even better about himself．
"Teens are thinking about career，college，and what their future might look like，"explains Michelle Midenberg，a clinical director of Westchester Group Works，a center for group treatment in New York．"This is very challenging and just one of the reasons why they are so focused on their own world．"Once teens participate h community service，howeer，they begin to look beyond their personal needs．They also learn firsthand about the challenges others face，and they experience a sense of authority as they realize they can make a real difference in others'lives．
Not sure how to convince a teen to get away from the cell phone and into a community project？Teens buy into community service when the project or program is in an area of their interest．
"Finding something in an are of interest for them keeps them motivated and inspired，"Maidenberg says．For instance，if he is interested in culinary （烹飪） school，he could volunteer in a soup kitchen or bake for a project that supports families in need．Volunteer projects in your teen's area of interest will build her knowledge base as well as help others．
Parents can do their part by participating in community service themselves．Teens can learn directly from their parents that personal enjoyment is not，all tha matters．
Let teens know the benefits they will obtain．"Give them every reason in the world to volunteer，"Maidenberg advises．She says that working on community service projects builds confidence．"By working with others，teens improve managerial，interpersonal and communication skills．Community service helps to approach maturity when they take a step back to see the needs of other people，"she adds．Another reward：service hours look great on a resume!

分析 讓你的孩子擺脫眼前利益的桎梏而去做長遠考慮無異于和用塑料叉子去砸開一個核桃一樣困難．但是不用擔心，這并不是毫無可能的．
有很多方法讓你的孩子去做到不只是關心他們自己狹窄的朋友圈．當他對其他人感到負有責任的時候，他將會意識到他對自己的感覺會更好．
"孩子們思考著事業(yè)，學業(yè)，和他們未來可能會怎樣，"Westchester Group Works的臨床主任 Michelle Maidenberg解釋說．Westchester Group Works是紐約的一個群體治療的中心．
"要解決這一點非常難，而且這是孩子們太過專注自己世界的原因之一．"然而一旦孩子們參加到社/會服務事業(yè)中去，他們就會開始從高于自身利益著眼．
他們也同時會直接了解到其他人所面臨的困難和挑戰(zhàn)；當他們能為別人的生命做出貢獻的時候
他們會體驗到一種權威的意識．
不知道怎樣使孩子離開電話粥而投身入社/會事業(yè)？孩子們會對社/會事業(yè)買賬，如果他們發(fā)現(xiàn)他們對這項社/會事業(yè)的領域感興趣的話．
"尋找到一個能激勵打動孩子們的一個領域，"Maidenberg說．比如，如果孩子對烹飪學校感興趣，他就會自愿參加例如流動廚房或者為困難家庭做飯這樣的項目．
志愿參加這些孩子們感興趣的項目不僅可以幫助他人，還可以幫助孩子們增長知識．
父母們也能在參與社/會服務的項目中助一臂之力．因為孩子們是從父母那里直接學習到，個人的快樂并不是最重要的．
讓孩子們知道他們將會獲得的收益．"給他們參與志愿活動的充分理由．"Maidenberg建議說．
她說，在社會服務項目工作同時幫助建立自信．"通過與他人合作，孩子們提高自己管理，人際和交流的技能．當孩子們邁出了這一步，看到他人的需要，社會服務幫助他們日漸成熟．"她補充說，另一個好處是：社區(qū)服務時間會對孩子們的簡歷有很大的幫助!
解答 64-66 DAC
64．D 細節(jié)題．由第二段第二句"This is very challenging and just one of the reasons why they are so focused on their own world．"可知說明部分原因是他們要面對許多挑戰(zhàn)，正確答案為D．
65．A 推斷題．由文章第二段倒數(shù)第二句"Once teens participate h community service，however，they begin to look beyond their personal needs．"可知作者鼓勵青少年參加社區(qū)服務，由此推斷劃線詞所在句"Teens buy into community service when the project or program is in an area of their interest．"意為"當這項工作或計劃屬于他們感興趣的領域時，青少年就會投身社區(qū)服務"，所以 buy into 意為"參與，投身于"，故正確答案為A．
66．C 細節(jié)理解 由最后一段第二句"Give them every reason in the world to volunteer．"可知作者列舉志愿服務的好處是為了說服青少參與志愿服務，故正確答案為C．
