During the teenage years, many young people can at times be difficult to talk to. They often
seem to dislike being questioned. They may seem unwilling to talk about their work in school. This is
a normal development at this age, though it can be very hard for parents to understand. It is part of

III. READING COMPREHENSION. (1 pts)
Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer: True (T), False (F).
LEARNING ENGLISH
It is not easy for adult students of English to improve their accents. Unlike children, who are
flexible, adults often find it hard to change the way they speak. This is why even the top, or smartest
adult students have difficulty with pronunciation. There are several things that an international student
can do to improve his or her pronunciation.
One method is to sign up for a pronunciation class. Studying pronunciation can help students to
understand the rules of English, but in order to practice speaking, students often need to be exposed to
English outside the classroom as well. This is why many students say that studying in an English-
speaking country greatly affects their English. Living with native speakers can help students can also
learn important cultural information. This can help to prevent misunderstandings that can occur when
people from different cultures live together.
Living with someone from another culture can be difficult. International students are usually
excited when they first show up at their new homes, but after a few months they may start to think
about their home countries and get homesick. Students who are homesick get depressed quickly. They
might cry a lot or want to be alone. This makes it difficult for them to make friends and learn English.
