Passage 1

I am talking to the children in the street and also thinking about the very difficult question of how best to learn their language. The problem is (1)______ simple. Learning a first language is easy.

I am often (5)______ trying to express myself in my second language. I want to be like the children I see on the street who can speak the (6)______ language so well.

In fact, I have reaped very few (12)______ being an older language learner. I think about how I can keep notes to help me remember what I have learned (13)______ young children cannot.

A child must gather information about a language from all around and use that language for many years in order to communicate well. The same is (16)______ for me. But, (17)______ a child, I use experience and insight I've (18)______ and find opportunities to try to discuss more difficult subjects and, (19)______ , I often make bigger mistakes than a child would. When I ask for directions or (20)______ myself, I embarrass myself. I should only talk to the children on the street for now.

Passage 1

Most people believe that teenagers and their parents have a hard time (1)______, but, in fact, most teenagers and their parents relate to each other quite well. Most teenagers not only listen to what their parents have to say, but they also (2)______ the rules their parents set. (3)______, most parents not only talk to their teenagers, but also enjoy listening to and benefit

from (4)______ they are offering. So why are relationships between teenagers and their parents such a big (5)______? It is probably because these relationships, like all others, are difficult and (6)______ patience along with understanding. Being patient (7)______ understanding requires a level of energy that busy parents and teenagers have a(n) (8)______ time keeping up and so poor communication often occurs. In a house where a teen is being (9)______ there are added difficulties to consider. Most (10)______, a new member of the family is bound to (11)______ some of the decision-making. It can be difficult for parents to (12)______ the influence they hold over their child's choices. But, when children (13)______ their teens, they demand a greater share of the control(14)______ their lives and will often become upset and take it without asking when a parent does not (15)______ them enough. Just how ready parents are to (16)______ some of the decisions with their teenager will determine whether this change will be a positive one or a(n) (17)______ one for the family.

It is far more effective for parents to allow (18)______ the child's perspective and let him make his own choice (19)______ make a decision for their child. This doesn't (20)______ that they should remove themselves from their child's life. Parents must challenge and commit themselves to knowing their child so that they can help their child make the best decisions for themselves.
