　　University students come from different parts of the country with various purposes.
　　大学生来自全国各地，目的各异。
　　However, a closer look at their reasons for studying at the university will enable us to classify them roughly into three groups: those who have a(n) passion for learning, those who wish to attain a bright future, and those who learn with no definite purpose.
　　然而，仔细观察他们上大学的原因，我们可以将他们大致分为三类:对学习有热情的人，希望获得光明未来的人，以及那些学习没有明确目的的人。
　　Firstly, there are many students who learn simply because they pursue their goal of learning.
　　首先，有很多学生学习仅仅是因为他们追求学习的目标。
　　Some read a wealth of British and American novels because they are keenly interested in literature.
　　一些人阅读了大量的英国和美国小说，因为他们对文学有着浓厚的兴趣。
　　Others sit in front of the computer screen, working on a new program, virtually day and night, because they find some computer programs fascinating , and they dream of becoming a "Bill Gates” one day.
　　另一些人坐在电脑屏幕前，几乎没日没夜地研究一个新程序，因为他们发现一些电脑程序很迷人，他们梦想有一天成为“比尔盖茨”。
　　Secondly, there are students who work hard mainly for a better and more raise future.
　　其次，有些学生努力学习主要是为了更好、更有前途。
　　It seems that the majority of students fall into this group.
　　似乎大多数学生都属于这个群体。
　　After admission to the university, they read books after books to acquire knowledge from all of the resources which are available to them, and finally, to succeed in the future job market.
　　进入大学后，他们读了一本书又一本书，从所有可用的资源中获取知识，最终在未来的就业市场上取得成功。
　　Thirdly, there are still some students who learn without a clear goal.
　　第三，仍然有一些学生学习没有明确的目标。
　　They take courses, finishhomework, enjoy life on campus, but don't want to sample anything new or challenging.
　　他们学习课程，完成作业，享受校园生活，但不想尝试任何新的或具有挑战性的东西。
　　They have no idea what they will be doing after college.
　　他们不知道大学毕业后要做什么。
　　And they may end up with nothing in their lives.
　　他们可能会在生活中一无所有。

　　Parents and teenagers have different or even opposite things to worry about.
　　父母和青少年需要担心的事情不同，甚至相反。
　　For example, while a mother might have a hard time understanding why her teenagers' room is always a(n) embarrassment of dirty stuff, the teenagers are more worried about their next exams and may think it is ridiculous for their mother to insist on keeping a clean toom.
　　例如，一位母亲可能很难理解为什么她孩子的房间总是堆满了脏东西，而孩子们更担心他们的下次考试，可能会认为他们的母亲坚持保持房间干净是荒谬的。
　　It is therefore important for you to appreciate the differences and learn to communicate with your teenagers properly.
　　因此，对你来说，欣赏差异并学会正确地与你的孩子沟通是很重要的。
　　Otherwise, your teenagers may say nothing and shut you out of their personal lives.
　　否则，你的孩子们可能什么都不说，把你拒之门外。
　　Their refusal to talk with you may even create emotional stress in your life.
　　他们拒绝和你交谈甚至会给你的生活带来情绪压力。
　　Learning effective ways to communicate can reverse the situation of a difficult relationship, reduce the stress of your life, and lead to a friendly relationship with your teenagers.
　　学习有效的沟通方式可以扭转一段艰难的关系，减少你的生活压力，并与你的孩子建立友好的关系。
　　First, you should learn to discuss serious problems in daily conversations.
　　首先，你应该学会在日常对话中讨论严肃的问题。
　　So, important topics, such as driving a vehicle and building a(n) romantic relationship, could be dealt with through dàily conversations.
　　因此，重要的话题，如开车和建立一段浪漫关系，可以通过dàily对话来处理。
　　Second,learn to be an active listener.
　　第二，学会做一个积极的倾听者。
　　Many parents are so overwhelmed with their work that they could hardly take some time for their beloved children.
　　许多父母都被他们的工作压得喘不过气来，以至于他们几乎没有时间陪伴他们深爱的孩子。
　　Spend your time listening carefully to what your children like to talk about, and make sure your children feel they are being taken seriously.
　　花时间仔细倾听你的孩子喜欢谈论什么，并确保你的孩子觉得他们被认真对待了。
　　This will increase the chances of good communication.
　　这将增加良好沟通的机会。
