41、e the family 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

42、 personality. 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 uni

43、versity, where he tries to belong to a group of friends. He may 10 other friends personalities as he considers them the best. Then, he may want to have the same clothes and the same sum of money his friends have, 11 his family cannot afford it. This is a way of trying to feel 12 with the others arou

44、nd him.On the other hand, at school, teachers try to do their best to shape their students personalities by having special classes where they 13 matters of social life. During these classes students have the 14 to open a conversation on subjects they cannot talk about at home 15 they dont have such

45、a close 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 become 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? Maybe they try to get rid of the prejudices that characterize our society and have a more modern perspective of life. 1.
