16、o where there are people. You wont make friends staying home alone. Join a club or a group. Talking with those who like the same things as you do is much easier. Or join someone in some activities. Many people are nervous when talking to new people. After all, meeting strangers means facing the unkn

17、own. And its human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about the unknown. Most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. But dont forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try t

18、o accept yourself as you are and try to put the other person at ease. Youll both feel more comfortable.Try to act self-confidently even if you dont feel that way.

23、bility to speak two languages fluently, has more benefits than many realize.First, its good for a childs brain. Learning a second language improves their academic achievements. Many studies have shown that children who learn a foreign language get better grades at school. Bilingual children also dis

24、play a better facility in their native language. Their grammar, vocabulary and spelling skills are stronger than those of single-language speakers. Children who learn a second language become expert problem-solvers and creative thinkers. Thats because their brains are constantly working to sort out

25、which language to speak and when. Studies further show that bilingual teens are better at multitasking.Multilingual（多種語言的） parents understand the benefits of learning more than one language.
