41、mily has. In order to 1 this statement, we should consider the following 2 .First of all, the personality of each individual begins to 3 in the family. But from an early age, a child begins to 4 and he comes into contact with different children of his age and even older, who 5 his shaping of persona
42、lity. 6 , the first place to socialize for a child is kindergarten where he comes to 7 several children of different behaviors and tries to 8 with them in order to integrate (融合) in a certain group.Moreover, with the passing of years, a child becomes a(n) 9 , attending a high school or a university,

45、relationship with their parents. Consequently, these adolescents learn to freely 16 their concerns and know how to sustain (坚持) their arguments in front of other peoples points of view.But one thing Id like to point out and to 17 with is the fact that, in my opinion, the latest generations have beco
46、me so 18 and proud that they refuse to listen to their parents advice and even talk to teachers 19 . What do they try to 20 with this behavior?

And she wasnt sure, with the roads covered with water and a gas shortage, whether her motor would get through the 5 conditions. So she hea
68、ded toward Little Ferry, with the motors tiny under-seat trunk 6 with blankets and winter clothing.When she got there, “huge piles of wall, carpeting, and peoples personal 7 were out on the road,” says Kaufman. She helped a woman clean out her 8 home and then collected food and warm clothing for 9 r
69、esidents.In the 10 days following the storm, Kaufman used her motor in a resourceful (灵活的) way.
