The Adolescents

[A] The American Academy of Pediatrics recognizes three stages of adolescence. There are early, middle and late adolescence, and each has its own developmental tasks. Teenagers move through these tasks at their own speed depending on their physical development and hormone levels. Although these stages are common to all teenagers, each child will go through them in his or her own highly individual ways.

[B] During the early years young people make the first attempts to leave the dependent, secure role of a child and to establish themselves as unique individuals, independent of their parents. Early adolescence is marked by rapid physical growth and maturation. The focus of adolescents' self-concepts are thus often on their physical self and their evaluation of their physical acceptability. Early adolescence is also a period of intense conformity to peers. 'Getting along.' not being different, and being accepted seem somehow pressing to the early adolescent. The worst possibility, from the view of the early adolescent, is to be seen by peers as 'different.'

[C] Middle adolescence is marked by the emergence of new thinking skills. The intellectual world of the young person is suddenly greatly expanded. Their concerns about peers are more directed toward their opposite sexed peers. It is also during this period that the move to establish psychological independence from one's parents accelerates. Delinquency behavior may emerge since parental views are no longer seen as absolutely correct by adolescents. Despite some delinquent behavior, middle adolescence is a period during which young people are oriented toward what is right and proper. They are developing a sense of behavioral maturity and learning to control their impulsiveness.

[D] Late adolescence is marked be the final preparations for adult roles. The developmental demands of late adolescence often extend into the period that we think of as young adulthood. Late adolescents attempt to crystallize their vocational goals and to establish sense of personal identity. Their needs for peer approval are diminished and they are largely psychologically independent from their parents. The shift to adulthood is nearly complete.

[E] Some years ago, Professor Robert Havighurst of the University of Chicago proposed that stages in human development can best be thought of in terms of the developmental tasks that are part of the normal. He identified eleven developmental tasks associated with the adolescent transition. One developmental task an adolescent needs to achieve is to adjust to a new physical sense of self. At no other time since birth does an individual undergo such rapid and profound physical changes as during early adolescence. Puberty is marked by sudden rapid growth in height and weight. Also, the young person experiences the emergence and accentuation of those physical traits that make him or her a boy or a girl. The effect of this rapid change is that the young adolescent often becomes focused on his or her body.

[F] Before adolescence, children's thinking is dominated by a need to have a concrete example for any problem that they solve. Their thinking is constrained to what is real and physical. During adolescence, young people begin to recognize and understand abstractions. The adolescent must adjust to increased cognitive demands at school. Adults see high school in part as a place where adolescents prepare for adult roles and responsibilities and in part as preparatory for further education. School curricula are frequently dominated by inclusion of more abstract, demanding material, regardless of whether the adolescents have achieved formal thought. Since not all adolescents make the intellectual transition at the same rate, demands for abstract thinking prior to achievement of that ability may be frustrating.

[G] During adolescence, as teens develop increasingly complex knowledge systems and a sense of self, they also adopt an integrated set of values and morals. During the early stages of moral development, parents provide their child with a structured set of rules of what is right and wrong, what is acceptable and unacceptable. Eventually the adolescent must assess the parents' values as they come into conflict with values expressed by peers and other segments of society. To reconcile differences, the adolescent restructures those beliefs into a personal ideology.

[H] The adolescent must develop expanded verbal skills. As adolescents mature intellectually, as they face increased school demands, and as they prepare for adult roles, they must develop new verbal skills to accommodate more complex concepts and tasks. Their limited language of childhood is no longer adequate. Adolescents may appear less competent because of their inability to express themselves meaningfully.

[I] The adolescent must establish and psychological independence from his or her parents. Childhood is marked by strong dependence on one's parents. Adolescents may yearn to keep that safe, secure, supportive, dependent relationship. Yet, to be an adult implies a sense of independence, of autonomy, of being one's own person. Adolescents may vacillate between their desire for dependence and their need to be independent. In an attempt to assert their need for independence and individuality, adolescents may respond with what appears to be hostility and lack of cooperation.

[J] Adolescents do not progress through these multiple developmental tasks separately. At any given time, adolescents may be dealing with several. Further, the centrality of specific developmental tasks varies with early, middle, and late periods of the transition.

难题解析

Describe an advertisement you remember well

You should say:

where you saw it or heard it

what kind of advertisement it was

what the contents of the advertisement were

And explain why you remember it well

题目来源：Part 2

思路分析：

这道题目要求考生学生描述一则记忆深刻的广告，在选择的时候建议学生选容易描述的，内容日常的，比如产品促销类广告，像是旅游产品，这样学生可以将此题与旅行话题进行合并，同理学生也可选择卖房和租房类的广告，这样就可以和accommodation的话题进行结合。

参考答案：

Well, the most impressive advertisement is absolutely the one released by Apple decades ago. As a matter of fact, it was not targeting at a certain product but a key concept of Apple, the company and its culture.

I was firstly attracted to it years ago cuz it got millions of “thumb-up”s on Youtube, you know, the video website.

It was more like a documentary rather than a commercial, and when I clicked in, my world was rocked!

This one-minute ad featured black-and-white footage of 17 iconic 20th century personalities, including Albert Einstein, BobDylan, Martin Luther King, John Lenon, Pablo Picasso, etc. Eventually, it ended with an image of a young girl opening her closed eyes, as if making a wish.

As the video was aired, you can also hear the lines going, honestly I can’t remember every single word of it, but, it was like : “Here's to the crazy ones, themisfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently --they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they changethings... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think thatthey can change the world, are the ones who do.”

see? you know what I mean, a real thought-provoking ad!

I can still remember that I thought it should be “differently” instead of “different”， so I googled it, it turn out that Steve Jobs has got his own explanation. This is exactly “think different” ！

I really like this advertisement, it is a masterpiece, for its design, it creativity, also, for the ones who “think different”!

答案分数级别：6.5

词汇和短语：

misfits 与别人合不来的人；思想怪异的人rebels 造反者；不守规矩者the round pegs in the square holes 格格不入的人thought-provoking 发人深省的
