Dear Dr Jackson,
My parents are never happy with me. They are always criticizing my clothes, my hair and the music I listen to. They hate my friends’ looks and they keep complaining when I go with them. I’m not allowed to stay out as late as my friends do, so I can’t have any fun. My parents only seem to care about my school grades. Although I love them, sometimes I feel we live in different worlds. If they love me, can’t they understand me? How can I make them understand me? Angel
Dear Angel,
Your problem is common to both teenagers and parents. Don’t worry, because all this is natural.
You see, your parents have grown up at a different time and they have different experiences. So, they think some things are strange, but you find the same things are all right. For example, the music you like may sound like noise to them. Your parents love you, so they feel they must stop you from doing whatever they find strange. On the other hand, you don’t want to be different from other teenagers, so you feel that your parents’ re strict you.
I think you should talk about this problem with your parents. Try to explain to them what you want and make them know they can believe you. And then they’ll find you are a responsible person and they will give you more freedom. Jackson

Dolphins（海豚） are not fish．They are mammals（哺乳动物）．They live in groups and speak to each other in their own language．But they are quite different from almost all land animals．Their brain is as big as man's and they live a long life--at least 20-30 years．
Like some animals，dolphins use sounds to help them find their way around．They also use sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food．They do not use their ears to receive sounds，but use the jaw-the lower part of the mouth．
It is strange that dolphins are friendly to men，and for thousands of years，there are many stories about dolphins and men．In the 1800s，in a dangerous part of the sea near New Zealand，there was a dolphin．The seamen liked him very much and gave him a very good name，Jack．From 1871 to 1903，Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way．In 1903 a passenger on a boat with the name of “ he Penguin” shot and hurt Jack．Luckily the dolphin didn't die，and after a long time he was well again．He continued to guide the ships through the area for nine more years，but he refused to help the boat “The Penguin”．
Today，some people still kill dolphins，but more and more people will protect them． 46、47题判断正误（T表示正确，F 表示错误）；48题完成句子；49题简略回答问题；50题将文中画线句子译成汉语。
( ) 46. Dolphins are not only fish but also mammals.
( ) 47. At last, Jack didn’t help the boat named “ The Penguin” any more．
