A Language Programme for Teenagers
Welcome to Teenagers Abroad! We invite you to join us on an amazing journey of language learning.
Our Courses
Regardless of your choice of course, you’ll develop your language ability both quickly and effectively. Our Standard Course guarantees a significant increase in your confidence in a foreign language, with focused teaching in all 4 skill areas----speaking, listening, reading and writing. Our Intensive Course builds on our Standard Course, with 10 additional lessons per week, guaranteeing the fastest possible language learning (see table below).

One day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summer. This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem inability to read.
In the library, I found my way into the "Children's Room." I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.
There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked identical to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title:Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.
Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.
My mother's call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.
I never told my mother about my "miraculous"(奇迹般地)experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.
4.The author's mother told him to borrow a book in order to .
A. encourage him to do more walking B. let him spend a meaningful summer
C. help cure him of his reading problem D. make him learn more about weapons
5.Why could the author manage to read the book through?
A. He was forced by his mother to read it. B. He identified with the story in the book.
C. The book told the story of his pet dog. D. The happy ending of the story attracted him.
6.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.The author has become a successful writer.
B.The author’s mother saw his remarkable improvement.
C.The author’s mother rewarded him with books.
D.The author has had happy summers ever since.
7.Which one could be the best title of the passage?
A. My Passion for Reading B. Mum’s Strict Order
C. Reunion with My Beagle D. The Charm of a Book
C
A new study has discovered that meditation and oxygen sport together reduce depression.The Rutgers University study found that this mind and body combination, done twice a week for only two months,reduced the symptoms for a group of students by 40 percent.
“We are excited by the findings because we saw such a meaningful improvement in both clinically depressed and non-depressed students,”said lead author Dr.Brandon Alderman.“It is the first time that both of these two behavioral ways have been looked at together for dealing with depression.”
Researchers believe the two activities have an interactive effect in combating depression.Alderman and Dr.Tracey Shors discovered that a combination of mental and physical training (MAP)enabled students with major depressive disorder not to let problems or negative thoughts defeat them.
Rutgers researchers say those who participated in the study began with 30 minutes of focused attention meditation followed by 30 minutes of oxygen sport.They were told that if their thoughts drifted to the past or the future they should refocus on their breathing,enabling those with depression to accept moment-to-moment changes in attention.
Shors,who studies the production of new brain cells in the hippocampus—part of the brain involved in memory and learning—says scientists have shown in animal models that oxygen sport exercise keeps a large number of certain cells alive.
The idea for the human intervention(干预)came from her laboratory studies,she says,with the main goal of helping individuals acquire new skills so that they can learn to recover from stressful life events.
By learning to focus their attention and exercise,people who are fighting depression can acquire new learning skills that can help them process information and reduce the overwhelming recollection of memories from the past,Shors says.
“We know these treatments can be practiced over a lifetime and that they will be effective in improving mental health.”said Alderman.“The good news is that this intervention can be practiced by anyone at any time and at no cost.”
8.What made the research so different?
A.Adopting a way of meaningful talk.
B.Combining the two ways to treat depression.
C.Treating depression with special medicine.
D.Comparing the depressed with the non-depressed.
9.The underlined word “combating” in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by______.
A.fighting B.identifying C.distinguishing D.examining
10.What did the participants do in the research?
A.They did oxygen sport half an hour before thinking.
B.They thought quietly and then took exercise.
C.They took exercise longer than they thought.
D.They took exercise while thinking quietly.
11.What is Shors’ main purpose of her studies?
A.To find out certain brain cells of humans.
B.To study the production of new brain cells.
C.To offer people a new method to treat stress.
D.To decide the links between stress and exercise.

Why I’ve taken a break from holidays
It is a wonderful morning,as I write this:hot,but without being too hot. Outside my window,I can see the sunniest sky of the year reflected in a huge natural expand of water. It is the kind of sun that makes you well aware of summer’s temporary nature —a reminder that if I am ever to go around to book this year's holiday,time is running out .
It is now close to four years since I last took a holiday. This is because I have come to the conclusion, over the course of my adult life, that I am not very good at it. You might say this sounds like saying you are not very good at drinking tea or listening to music. What could possibly be difficult about the natural act of putting your working life on hold for a couple of weeks and going somewhere to do nothing?
I was a model holidaymaker as a kid.However,the problems started during my twenties.A trip to the south of France was ended after just two days,mainly because I had an urge to check my e-mails.Similarly,my honeymoon was cut short by 48 hours—not because my wife and I weren’t enjoying ourselves,but because we were missing our cats.
So what is my problem? On the surface,I’m probably a bit of a homebody.And I just find the pressure of being on holiday too severe:it always feels like having a gun held to my head and being forced to have fun.Somehow,packing a list of possessions and meeting a scheduled flight has none of the excitement of suddenly deciding to take a day off and driving somewhere for the fun of it.
Thankfully,I’m not alone.This summer,most of my friends have decided not to have a break.And a recent survey proved the downside of holidays,with the results showing that nearly two thirds of people found that the calming effects of a holiday wore off within 24 hours,as stress levels returned to normal.And this year The Idler magazine published its Book of Awful Holidays.Here you will find a list of the five most ecologically-damaging vacations it’s possible to take,along with 50 painful holiday experiences voted for on The Idler website.
What interests me is what the concept of a “holiday” says about our lives.For me,the point of living is to have a life you enjoy for 52 weeks a year.The more I like my life and the better I structure it,the less I want to go away.Maybe I’m an unusual person for not liking holidays,but I just feel the time when I’m not working is too valuable to waste on them.
12.According to the first paragraph we can know that the writer .
A.has a strong desire to book a holiday
B.wishes that the weather would change
C.finds it is too late to enjoy the sunshine
D.realizes it's time to decide whether to go on a holiday
13.What can be inferred from the sentence underlined in the second paragraph?
A. people may find the man unbelievable
B. People think traveling is not so easy an act as drinking tea
C. The writer often regrets not taking a holiday.
D. The writer doesn't like drinking tea or listening to music
14.What does the author think of holidays?
A.They are often well organized in order to please other people.
B.He feels embarrassed when other people are having fun but he isn’t.
C.He tends to be made responsible for too much of the organization of them.
D.They are less enjoyable than breaks that have not been planned in advance.
15.The writer takes the book of Awful Holidays as an example to .
A.damage the reputation of the magazine
B. prove the idea of living an easy, lazy life to be wrong
C. indicate that his dislike of holidays is widely shared
D. focus entirely on bad personal experiences of holidays

You’re growing up. That means you’re probably experiencing lots of changes, all at once. Your body is changing. It might even seem as if your entire self is changing. It can be confusing and even scary. 16 And it’s good!
Growing up means that you can do more, learn more, and start to make your mark on the world. In order for that to happen, your body produces chemicals called hormones that help both body and mind grow. Hormone levels change constantly, rising and falling. 17 But it’s partly to blame for intense emotions, surprising reactions, and mood swings.
Because of the way your brain develops, it is somewhat ruled by emotion now and through your teen years. As a result, growing up can seem like an emotional roller coaster! 18
◆ Take care of yourself. If you eat right, sleep enough, and get good exercise, your brain will be much more able to deal with the stress.
◆ 19 When you feel your moods swinging or you’re upset, or confused, some quiet time will allow you to gather your thoughts and get calmer.
◆ Practice relaxing your body and deep breathing when you wake up and when you go to bed. 20 Plus, when stuff happens during the day, you’ll be able to calm yourself quickly with a deep breath or two before you react. Your body is changing.
A.Take a time-out.
B.But the truth is, it happens to every teen.
C.Work out regularly to keep physically fit.
D.This changing is needed for your body’s development.
E.It will help you fall asleep—and start the morning right.
F.Here are a few things you can do to make the ride smoother.
G.Usually, these feelings settle down when you realize what is going on.

At the airport, I looked closely at the face of my son, Daniel, his backpack by his side. We were saying good-bye. In a few hours he would be flying to France to 21 a different life.

When Daniel was five, I took him to the school-bus stop on his first day of kindergarten. He looked at me -- as he did now. “What is it going to be like, Dad? Will I be okay?” And then he walked up the 25 of the bus and disappeared inside. And the bus 26 . And I had said nothing.
A decade or so later, a similar 27 played itself out. I drove him to college. I tried to think of something to say to give him 28 and confidence as he started this new life. Again, words 29 me.
Now, as I stood before him, I thought of those 30 opportunities. How many times have we all let such moments pass?
My father and I loved each other. Yet, I always 31 never hearing him put his 32 into words and never having the memory of that moment. Now, I could feel my palms(手掌) 33 and my throat tighten. Why is it so 34 to tell a son something from the heart?
My mouth turned dry, and I knew I would be able to get out only a few words 35 . “Daniel," I said, "if I could have picked, I would have picked you." That’s all I could say. I wasn’t sure he understood what I 36 . Then he came toward me and threw his arms around me. For a moment, the world and all its people vanished, and there was just Daniel and me. He was saying something, 37 my eyes misted(视线模糊)over, and I couldn’t understand what he was saying. All I was 38 of was the stubble(胡子茬)on his chin as his face pressed 39 mine. And then, the moment ended. What I had said to Daniel was clumsy. It was nothing. And yet, it was 40 .

Last Tuesday, the Students' Union in our school advised that Senior Three students should do something specially for their parents on their 18th birthdays. All the students are active in responding it and most of them have come up with their ideas. Some choose to write letter saying it's the best way to express their appreciations as well as love for their parents. Others prefer to cook a big meal to show that they've already grow up.
As for me, I want to do up hair and wash feet for my parents. By doing that my parents have been doing for me so I can really know how much they've devoted to bring me up. Being 18 years old mean that we should learn to be independent and that we should be responsible for us.
