34、ore like talking after dinner rather than first thing in the morning. Be available at any hour, and let your son know it. Give your son verbal affirmation（肯定、认可） , letting him know that he is loved and that you are _54_ to be his dad. Spend Time Together Parents spend lots of time shuttling kids to
35、practices, classes and various other activities. _55_, the quality time needed to build relationships is often lacking. How dads spend their time shows their sons what is most important to them. Whether 6 / 12 playing pretend with preschoolers or taking a hike with a teenager, fathers are encouraged
36、 to _56_ activities that their sons find interesting. Set Boundaries （界限） _57_ discipline in a loving way shows sons that fathers _58_ care about their education and are concerned about _59_ their character.

Teaching Respectful Behavior By modeling respectful behavior, fathers demonstrate _62_ reactions and expre
38、ssion of feelings for their sons. Communicating positive emotions and controlling negative ones shows sons how to healthily _63_ their feelings.

43、rding to the information given in the passage you have just read. 7 / 12 (A) Well, parents, surprise! Lots of us are using Twitter and Facebook to find rides, and not just to school. Its awkward to call a friend and ask for a ride, and half the time theyll say, Sorry, my car is full. But with Twitte
44、r, you just tweet #AshleysPoolParty and look for other people heading the same way. It may sound risky, but many teens stay within their own social circles to find rides, and dont branch out beyond friends of friends when asking on Twitter. For me, I only rideshare with people I know, but to some yo
45、ung people, especially those taking longer trips, stranger danger is less of a concern. The sharing economy got big during the recession（经济衰退） . It allows people to access more goods and services using technology, while also allowing them to share cost. And that technology, for me, is what the car w

So if they could sit in the passenger side and still be connected, thats going to be a plus.
48、 To me, another plus is ridesharing represents something much bigger than trying to save money. I see it as evidence that people still depend on each other. My generation shares their cars and apartments the way neighbors used to share cups of sugar. For the system to work, some of us still need our own cars. But until I get my own version of the silver Super Beetle, you can f
