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 becoming independent, of teenagers trying to to be adult while they
are still growing up. Young people are usually more willing to talk if they believe that
questions are asked out of real interest and not because people are trying to check up on
them. Parents should do their best to talk to their son or daughter about school work and
future plans but should not push them to talk if they don't want to. Parents should also
watch for the danger signs: some young people in trying to be adult may experiment with
alcohol or smoking. Parents need to watch for any signs of unusual behavior which may be
connected with these and get help if necessary.

a) parent's handbook b) teenage magazine

them.

the man-made canals supposedly discovered by an Italian astronomer, Schiaparelli, in
1877. With the United States spacecraft Viking I's landing on Mars in 1976, the man-made
canal theory was proven to be only a myth. Viking I, after landing on the soil of Mars,
performed many specific experiments and took numerous pictures. The pictures showed
that the red color of the planet is due to the reddish, rocky Martian soil. No biological life
was found, though it had been speculated by many scientists. The Viking also monitored

many weather changes including violent dust storms. Some water vapor, polar ice, and
permafrost (frost below the surface) were found, indicating that at one time there were
significant quantities of water on this distant planet. Evidence collected by the spacecraft
shows some present volcanic action, though the volcanoes are believed to be dormant, if
not extinct.
