4. Do children and adults show their feelings in the same ways?
No, definitely not! I believe that adults are frequently careful with the way they show their
feelings. You know, in my country we learn how to control our emotions. Adults smile and only
talk a little about their feelings, but they usually internalize
( =
keep emotions in) a lot. On the
other hand, kids don't think so much and they happily display their feelings
:
they laugh out loud,
and they scream and jump around whenever they are thrilled about a gift or something else.
5.How can the effects of early family life influence a person's later development?
Well, what happens during childhood is extremely important for the development of one's
personality. Parents will definitely influence a child's character a lot, and the early relationships
will shape the kid's mind. For example, if a father mistreats his child at an early age, chances are
the kid will grow up to become violent, and he won't trust anybody. On the other hand

However), if the parents look after the child, and cover him with love, the child will learn how to
be considerate

Whatever happens in our early childhood has psychological consequences on
everyone.
6. How can governments help to make people happy?
Well, that's a great question. I think that the government must provide nice facilities and
infrastructures, like parks, schools and stadiums. In addition, governments could organize free
activities and events for the citizens to enjoy themselves, maybe a concert or a parade. And
naturally, our leaders should fight against unemployment, try to keep the taxes low and offer
occasional surprises to please the people. Like last year, the government lowered the price of
public transport in my city, which everyone appreciated.
