Question

There is no question that teenagers need rules, which is often not a difficult thing for parents to give. What can be more challenging is giving teenagers their freedom. It can be difficult to draw the line between the two. However, some issues cannot be changed by discussion and require firm rules. For instance, rules should be established concerning driving the family car.
I will admit that I have no problem coming up with rules. To me they make life easier and they leave no room for questioning. What can be more difficult, however, is giving my teens their freedom. I guess there are really two primary reasons for this. One is that I sometimes am afraid to give them freedom. The second is that I’m not always so sure what the freedom should be.
It helps that I have a husband with whom I can discuss these problems. We talk about them, give our thoughts and then we come up with an agreement. Sometimes one of us might be more unwilling but we know that there comes a time when we really do have to learn how to let go of the reins (韁繩) a bit.
If we try to make life have nothing but rules, we are more likely to see our teen’s rebelling (反抗). They need to know that while we do have certain expectations, we also trust them to begin making their own choices and decisions. How else can they do that unless they are given the space and room to do it?
It’s really all about balance and I will be the first to admit that it can be a challenge to carry out. However, it is a necessary part of growing up. Yes, teens definitely need rules but they also need freedom.

解析試題分析：本文講述的是家庭教育中的規(guī)則和自由的界線問(wèn)題，既要給孩子自由也要有一定的規(guī)則的限制。
【小題1】D 推理題。根據(jù)文章第一段2,3行What can be more challenging is giving teenagers their freedom. It can be difficult to draw the line between the two.可知要給年輕人自由很困難，我們搞不清楚兩者之間的界線。故D正確。
【小題2】B 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段第一行If we try to make life have nothing but rules, we are more likely to see our teen’s rebelling (反抗).可知如果我們只給孩子規(guī)則，不給自由，這只會(huì)給我們帶來(lái)反抗。故B正確。
【小題3】B 推理題。根據(jù)文章最后2句However, it is a necessary part of growing up. Yes, teens definitely need rules but they also need freedom.可知規(guī)則和自由一樣都很重要。故B正確。
【小題4】A 推理題。根據(jù)本句It helps that I have a husband with whom I can discuss these problems. We talk about them, give our thoughts and then we come up with an agreement.可知這里的them就是指前一句中的problems。故A正確。
