师：Hi. So, from the video, what are my hobbies?
生：Maybe your hobbies are like keeping a pet.
师：Yes, I really like keeping a pet. Anyone else?
生：You like skydiving.
师：Yes, I like skydiving. Thank you. And I think maybe you believe that I live a colorful life, and I am the boss of the choices of my hobbies, right? But it's not true. Listen, this happens like every day.
师：（模仿与妈妈对话）Don't try skydiving. You're not Gigi Bond, mom. I should be allowed to try it. It's my life. No pets. You can't even take care of yourself. Come on, mom. Kitties are really cute. I should be allowed to keep one. See, parents. Do you guys have such problems with your parents?
生：Yes.
师：So, come on. Share your ideas.
生：Um, I think my parents often treat me in a way that they are very concerned about my grades. But I think I can manage my grades well. So, I think they don't need to be worried about it.
师：Oh, thank you. And what else do you think you should be allowed to do but your parents disagree? Emily.
生：I think I should be allowed to have my own phone. But my parents disagree.
师：Poor kid. Anyone else?
生：My parents often ask me to go to bed early, but I think I'm older now. I think I should stay up a little late to study hard.
师：So, you want to decide for yourself, right?
生：Yeah, I feel you.
师：But why don't parents allow us to make our own decisions? You don't know. Maybe we should have an effective talk with them. But how? Just follow me by reading, thinking, and speaking, and you can figure it out. Really. Look at the passage on page 54. Read and think about the following questions. Two minutes, go.
