of the questions.

During the teenage years, many young people can at times be difficult to talk to . They often seem to

dislike being questioned. They may seem unwilling to talk about their work in school. This is a normal

development at this age , though it can be very hard for parents to understand. It is part of becoming

independent of teenagers trying to be adult while they are still growing up . Young people are usually more

willing to talk if they believe that questions are asked out of real interest and not because people are trying to

check up on them .

Parents should do their best to talk to their sons and daughters about school work and future plant but

should not push them to talk if they don't want to . Parents should also watch for the danger signs: some

young people in trying to be adult may experiment with sex, drugs, alcohol, or smoking. Parents need to

English is one of the most popular languages in the world. It comes second in the number of speakers

after Chinese. In Vietnam, more and more people are studying English and they consider it a key to success.

However, not everyone knows how to learn English effectively.

The best way to improve the four skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing is to practice regularly. You

should make use of every opportunity to speak English with friends in class or at English speaking clubs or

ourselves in front of the mirror. Learning by heart all the words does not help much if you do not read a lot

because you will easily forget what you have learnt. Reading books, listening to radio and watching films are

better ways to memorize words. Besides. English learners should not be so shy because making mistakes is

unavoidable in learning foreign languages. Practicing speaking a lot is a good way to correct your mistakes.
