They are completely different. Paul is very sociable and much more honest than his brother. A: What kind of person do you consider yourself to be? B: I think I'm polite, careful, relaxed and shy. A: Oh, I don't think you're shy! You are always chatting with new people when we go to a party. B: Well. Yes, but those people always start talking to me. I never talk to them first. Perhaps I'm not as shy as I think. Anyway, you're certainly not shy! A: You're right. I love going out and making new friends. B: So, you'll be at my birthday party on Friday?

B: I think it's mainly from the environment a person lives in. A: Don't you think people get their personalities from their parents? B: No, but parents control a lot of the environment that kids grow up in,so they certainly influence their kid's personalities a lot. A: So why do you think many kids have personalities that are so different from their parents. B: Maybe when they become teenagers, they want to be completely different to their parents. A: You might be right. I guess most parents want their kids to be like them, but kids today grow up in a different environment. You know, they know much more about the world from the internet, newspapers, and tv. B: Do you think that teenagers get a lot of their bad behaviour from tv and movies? A: Maybe some of it. I think a lot of people blame TV and movies when the real problem is that the parents aren’t bringing their child up correctly. B: Parents have a difficult job. They have to bring up their children and usually have to work too. A: Yes, that's true. Your son is doing well at school, isn't he? B: Yes, he is. He's very hardworking when he's at school. Then he comes home from school and does his homework before dinner. After dinner, he goes out with his friends. A: So, he's not a bookworm? It's good that he has an outgoing personality. Some kids are very quiet and introverted. You wonder how they'll survive in the real world without their parents to support them. Words:personality [?p??s??n?liti] n.
