I’ve been working with teenagers for five years. I’ve spent time talking to them besides teaching them English. I remember once I asked them if their parents or classmates had more influence on their success at school. Some said their parents had the greatest influence on their achievement. The reason given was that parents usually loved their offspring unconditionally, and they definitely would do their best to help and support their children. For instance, parents could do all the housework so that their children could have opportunity for studying. However, some students revealed that their parents were too busy to spend time with them. Therefore, it was difficult for parents to help their children. In this case, classmates or friends affected their success most because they talked to them more and they helped each other to deal with any difficulty in studying. Question 23.
