Many teenagers feel the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe their family members, and in particular(尤其是) their parents, don't know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it's quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice. It's very important for teenagers to have good friends or a circle of friends, because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members.

    However, parents often try to choose their children's friends for them. Some may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. The question of “choice” is interesting. Have you ever thought of the following questions? Who chooses your friends? Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you? Have you got a good friend your parents don't like? Your answers are welcome.

    Doing homework not only can help children master the knowledge they have learned, but also can train their abilities of finishing the work alone, planning the time and doing the duties. But some children don't like to complete the work. Why?

    Some children feel it is very difficult to do their homework, because they can't understand their teacher clearly, and cannot follow their teacher's teaching process (过程). Maybe there is something wrong with their intelligence.

    But some children's intelligence is normal. They are even cleverer, but they don't listen to the teacher carefully. It is hard for them to sit well and pay attention to anything.

    Some children love their teacher and then like the subject. Their interest depends on the teacher who teaches them. So every teacher should make children love you and the subject you teach. So they can do their homework happily.
