friendships is an important developmental task for preteens and teens. While they have learned to play well with others during their childhood, developing independent friendships is a different thing. Preteens and teens will be allowed to use their own resources to decide whether to be someone’s friend or not, instead of being taught by their parents. Parents must give their teenagers some freedom in choosing who they want to hang out with. You can help your teens to choose their friends, although it’s your teenagers who make the final decision. You can use teachable moments to talk about what makes a good friend. Here are some points to remember when you talk about friendships with your teenagers: 1) You are allowed to have many friends; 2) Honesty is important in a friendship; 3) Friends sometimes hurt each other, but they can say sorry and forgive(原谅); 4) Friends can influence each other, sometimes they will help you but sometimes they will hurt you, too. 5) Who you choose to be your friend is important, so choose wisely; 6) It takes many learned skills to make and keep a friendship, and it also takes many skills to end a friendship; 7) It is okay and even helpful to make friends with the opposite gender(异性); 8) It takes time to make a good friend, but it is worth the effort; 9) Spending time together will help you get to know your friends well and you will feel comfortable sharing feelings; 10) A good friendship will make you feel good about yourself. 54.

(D) Are some people born clever and others born stupid? Or is intelligence (智力) developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. In some degree, our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no education can make a genius (天才) out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich environment. Therefore, the limits(限度) of person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This point of view now is held by most experts. It is easy to show that intelligence is something that we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be intelligence. If we take two strangers by chance from the population, it seems that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we compare two twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth. Imagine now that we take two twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory separately where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this shows that environment as well as birth plays an important part. This result is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence. 62. How is man’s intelligence given? A. At birth. B. Through education.
