1. It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents. They say that their parents don't understand them. They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways, that they are too serious and too strict with their children, and they seldom give their children a free hand. It is true that parents often find it difficult to win their children's trust and they tend to forget how they themselves felt when young.

For example, young people like to act on the spot without much thinking. It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation. Older people worry more easily. Most of them plan things ahead, at least in the back of their minds, and do not like their plans to be upset by something unexpected.

When you want your parents to let you do something, you will have better success if you ask before you really start doing it.

Young people often make their parents angry with their choice in clothes, in entertainment and in music. But they do not mean to cause any trouble: it is just that they feel cut off from the older people's world, into which they have not yet been accepted. That's why young people want a new culture of their own, and if their parents do not like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speech, this will make the young people extremely happy.

Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want to say, \"Yes\" to what you do. All you want is to be felt alone and do what you like. It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under parents' control.

If you plan to control life, you'd better win your parents over and try to get them to understand you. If your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility, they will certainly give you the right to do what you to do.

There are about three and a half million people living in British Columbia. Only Ontario and Quebec have more people, about half of British Columbia's people originally came from England. Many other people's families came to Canada from Scotland, Ireland, and Germany.

Today this province has a higher percentage of Asians than any of the other nine provinces. Vancouver is the largest city in British Columbia. Many international visitors come to Vancouver.

3. A group of people who share the same interests and way of life is called a society. Sociology is the science that examines human society. The term sociology is derived from the Latin word \"socius\which means \"companion, union of people\".

Sociologists are interested in how a society began and how it grew. They also study the level within a society. For example, the child is part of the family, the family is part of the neighborhood, and the neighborhood is part of the community. There are many different groups, and sociologists are interested in the effect that these groups have on people.

A Frenchman named Auguste Comte made sociology a separate science in the 1830s. He suggested that a new science was necessary to study a society of people. A famous book, Principles of Sociology, was published by an Englishman, Herbert Spencer, in 1882. This book had an unprecedented effect on the science of sociology. In his book, Spencer theorized that a society's customs evolved, or grew from very simple to more complicated and advanced. This theory shows the influence that Charles Darwin (who believed that man had evolved from very simple forms to the present human) had on Spencer.

4. In the 1960s, many young Americans were dissatisfied with American society. They wanted to end the Vietnam War and to make all the people in the U. S. equal. Some of them decided to \"drop out\" of American society and form their own societies. They formed utopian communities, which they called \"communeshey could follow their philosophy of \"do your own thing\". A group of artists founded a commune in southern Colorado called \"Drop City\". Following the ideas of philosopher and architect Buckminster Fuller, they built dome-shaped house from pieces of old cars. Other groups, such as author Ken Kesey's Merry Pranksters, the followers of San Francisco poet Steve Gaskin, and a group that called itself the Hog Farm, lived in old school buses and traveled around the United States. The Hog Farm became famous when they helped organize the Woodstock Rock Festival

in 1969. Steve Gaskin's followers tried to settle down on a farm in Tennessee, but they had to leave when some members of the group were arrested for growing marijuana.

Not all communes believed in the philosophy of \"do your own thing\" however. Twin Oaks, a commune founded in Virginia in the late 1960s, was based on the ideas of psychologist B.F. Skinner. The people who lived at Twin Oaks were carefully controlled by Skinner's \"conditioning\" techniques to do things that were good for the community. In 1972, Italian architect Paolo Soleri began to build Arcosanti, a utopian city in Arizona where 2,500 people will live closely together in one large building called an \"archology\". Soleri believes that people must live closely together so that they will all become one.

5. Today the official language of the United States and most of Canada is English. However, French almost became the official language because of a war.

The French and Indian War was fought between 1754 and 1763. The name of this war is not accurate because the war was actually between England and France. The Indians fought on the side of the French.

France and England were trying to gain control of North America. France held Canada, and England held part of what is now the United States. However, France tried to expand its land by moving southward into New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Virginia. When the French build a fort on the Ohio River, the residents in Virginia sent George Washington to attack the fort in 1725. However, the French defeated Washington.

The French, aided by the Indians, outsmarted the English and won many early battles. Later, the British began to do well against the French. In the final battle in Quebec, Canada, General Wolfe of England faced General Montcalm from France. Both generals died in this battle, but the English outlasted the French and won the battle. Thus, most of North America today has the English culture and language.

6. The market is a concept. If you are growing tomatoes in your backyard for sale, you are producing for the market. You might sell some to your neighbors and some to the manager of the local supermarket. But in either case, you are producing for the market. Your efforts are being directed by the market. If people stop buying tomatoes, you will stop producing them.

If you take care of a sick person to earn money, you are producing for the market. If your father is a steelworker or a truck driver or a doctor or a grocer, he is producing goods or service for the market.

When you spend your income, you are buying things from the market. You may spend money in stores, supermarkets, gas stations, and restaurants. Still you are buying from the market. When the local grocer hires you to drive the delivery truck, he is buying your labor in the labor market.

The market may seem to be something abstract. But for each person or business who is making and selling, it's very real. If nobody buys your tomatoes, it won't be long before you get the message. The market is telling you something. It's telling you that you are using energies and resources in doing something the market doesn't want you to do.
