He has been to Beijing, Shanghai, Suzhou, HongKong,Chengdu, Kunming,Lijiang and Tibetan areas in southwestern China. “I hav

12、rin（普通话） speech competition for high school students.Horne shared his story at the 13th Chinese Bridge Speech Contest for US high school students.

So I really want to give that gift of understanding China and Chinese culture to other kids,” he said. “I teach some third, fourth and fifth graders simple Chinese. I hope that they would be in in
14、terested in China and love China, too.” Unlike many other US high school students,Horne is something of a “Chinese local”.

Studies show that teens who have an active relationship with their fathers are less likely (可能的)to involve themselves
18、 in dangerous behaviors and more likely to succeed in school and develop higher self-worth, because their fathers go beyond social expectations to devote attention to them. Peer (同龄人) pressure has always been a big part of the teens experience. Even the best father cant completely protect their kids
19、 from the growing influence of their peer group. However, studies show that teenagers whose fathers focus on their lives are more likely to resist (抵抗) the more bad effects of peer pressure, taking drugs, for example. Teens may not like to admit it, but they are watching their parents closely and of
20、ten follow their example. An interesting finding explains just how important parents are, especially Dad. Swiss researchers discovered that if Dad attends church, even though Mom doesnt, 44 percent of the kids are still more likely to keep going to church as adults. But if Mom goes regularly and Dad
21、 never shows up, only 2 percent of the kids continue to attend. Teenagers face a lot of difficult choices, especially in their later teens. Fathers dont get to make those choices for them, but they can be influenced. For example, teenagers can learn a lot from their parents concern on what to do whe

26、 the time she was 13，her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kidsteeth，instead of destroying them.

28、mmended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain. With her dads permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth-friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about
29、teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria. Moore then used her savings to get her business of the ground. Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finall
30、y agreed to sell Moores productCancandy. As CanCandys success grows, so does Moores credibility as a young entrepreneur.
