Topic:
Some people think that family is the most important influence on young adults. Other people think that friends are the most important influence on young adults. Which do you think is the most important influence? Give specific reasons for your answer.

Sample:
The process of growing up is very complex for every person. Among countless factors which influence a person’s growth, there are two-conspicuous aspects: the family and the friends. After one is born, the first and nearest surroundings is the family in which he will grow up. So family does play a significant role in shaping children’s inclination and character. While on the other hand, almost as soon as a child becomes old enough to communicate with other children, he begins having friends, who sometimes influence him more rapidly than do families. Then as far as I am concerned both of their influences are indispensable for children’s growth.

Several centuries ago, there in Europe was a famous to the world. It brought up more than 20 great scientists and mathematicians so that there are so many formula and laws titled with the name: Bernoulli. It is a forceful example to demonstrate the importance of the family. Because the family is children’s most direct source of knowledge and other experiences, those who are brought up in good family tend to possess many pleasant characters, and vise versa.

If we say that families offer the environment of living, friends make another important part in shaping the child. They are connections between the child and the society. By associating with friends, one can gradually get into the society and become sociable. To some extent, man is sociable creature so that children should understand the society, get used to it, and get pleasure out of it. To this point, friends would help. As for me, I have lots of friends who have many different opinions and personalities. Discussing with them enriches my thought, and playing with them builds up my personality. Frankly speaking, I really get a lot of valuable things from my friends.

Families offer us warmth and care. Friends give us strength and horizon. They both help us understand the world as it is. Both of them are the dearest parts in our life.
