Parents becme angry and upset fr many reasns. (74).________ Fr example, sme parents did prly in schl when they were kids, and they wrry that their kids will get bad grades just like they did. Parents als wrry abut mistakes they may have made in raising their children. If their kids d smething wrng, the parents might think they didn't teach their kids well enugh . (75).________ If their sn r daughter spends an hur a day playing vide games nw, what will happen in five years? It seems like parents can be unreasnable smetimes, but they are just hping fr the best fr yu.
.________ Here is sme advice n hw t have a strnger relatinship with yur parents. These days, it's easy t send a message r talk nline. But face-t-face cmmunicatin is still imprtant. Take a few minutes a day t sit dwn and talk with yur parents. Next, when yu find yurself getting angry with yur parents, pause(暂停) and try t relax befre yu cntinue. Put yurseif in their she(换位思考) and try t underst their pinins. (77).________

As a middle schl student, I think students shuld wear schl unifrms at schl.
First, wearing schl unifrms takes students less time t get ready fr schl each mrning. Instead f standing in frnt f the mirrr and trying t decide which clthes t wear, students can just put n schl unifrms.
Secnd, wearing schl unifrms helps parents save mney.When students wear the same clthes at schl, they needn't spend t much mney n sme cl r beautiful clthes.
Third, wearing schl unifrms helps students pay mre attentin t their studies. When a student desn't have t wrry abut his r her lk, he r she can spend mre time studying.
All in all, I think it's a must fr middle schl students t wear unifrms at schl.safe hide smart that ntice acrss difficult cmmn they when change
