#3 -- I can't believe you aren't choosing the obvious one right away!!
(And I think you mean "rise" instead of "rinse," right?)
#4 -- To me, C is an absolute must, but (of course) we all know that 15-16 year olds know everything and don't need to listen to anyone! Well, most of them that I've run across, anyway!!
3. must be d.
4. Perhaps your book advises to TRY to avoid conflict. However, I think C. is the best answer.
3. To determine which of the options is NOT a physical change that both boys and girls experience during adolescence, we can examine each choice:
a. Facial acne: This is a common physical change that many adolescents, both boys and girls, experience due to hormonal changes in their bodies during puberty.
b. Growth spurts: Another common physical change during adolescence is a rapid increase in height known as a growth spurt. Both boys and girls tend to experience this during puberty.
c. Rise in sex hormones: This is also a typical physical change during adolescence. Both boys and girls experience an increase in sex hormones, such as testosterone and estrogen, which are responsible for various changes in their bodies.
d. Deepening of voice: This physical change is specifically associated with boys during adolescence. As their vocal cords lengthen and thicken due to hormonal changes, boys' voices become deeper.
Based on these explanations, the answer is a. Facial acne. Although both boys and girls may experience acne during adolescence, it is not a physical change that they both share as boys typically experience a deeper voice while girls do not.
4. To determine how teens can effectively communicate with their parents, let's examine each option:
a. Vent frustration and anger in a physical way: This approach tends to escalate conflicts rather than resolving them, so it is not an effective strategy for communication.
b. Avoid conflict: This is not an effective strategy either, as avoiding conflict may lead to pent-up emotions and unresolved issues, ultimately hindering effective communication.
c. Listen to their parents' side: This is an essential aspect of effective communication. By actively listening and considering their parents' perspective, teens can create an open dialogue and foster understanding.
d. Not talk to their parents: This option is not effective at all because effective communication relies on open and honest conversation between teens and parents.
Based on these explanations, the correct answer is c. Listen to their parents' side. By actively listening and considering their parents' point of view, teens can bridge communication gaps and establish healthier relationships with their parents.
