Answer the question: Do you agree with the author? (Work in pairs)
There are some sayings that your friends or your family know you bet-
ter. Have you ever asked yourself who knows you better? Stop for a 
second and analyse the relationship you have with your friends versus 
the relationship you have with your family. My friends think that I am 
crazy and silly while my family considers me the serious one. My fam-
ily has never had a chance to observe silly side of me. However, it is 
difficult for my friends to take me seriously.
I believe there are times when I just want silence and I talk to myself 
about where I'm going with my life. I feel a lot better after doing that, I 
just turn everything off and hang around in my room while closing my 
eyes and thinking about what I have achieved and what I still lack. In 
the end I'll just know a lot more about myself, so if my friends ask 
something about me I don't hesitate with my reply because I know my-
self better than anyone.
How about you? Do you think you know yourself better than anyone 
else? 
Teacher elicits if they agree or not and asks to justify their answers.
