So whats the reason?According to Laurence, a teacher from a US university, the reason is that teenagers care a lot about how their peers (同龄人 ) view themthat
26、 is “peer influence”As children enter their teenage years, they spend more time with their friends and classmates, and also they care more about what they think of them.

But when they played alone, they drove more safely.Why do peers have such a big influence on teens behavior?As Laurence se

The iceberg would also have a broader impact, says Abdullah Mohammad Sulaiman A1 Shehi:“Cold
34、air out from an iceberg close to the shore of the Arabian Sea would cause rainstorms across the Arabian Gulf and the southern region of the Arabian Peninsula all year round. As the rising air expands, cools and condenses (冷凝) due to the decrease in air pressure, water vapor (水蒸气) is collected in the
35、 clouds, which becomes heavy and falls as rain.”More icebergs will bring more water vapor and clouds, creating a profound effect on the regional climate over a decade, turning the desert into “green meadows”. The melting iceberg would also add fresh water to the Arabian sea, returning bio-diversity.
36、 There would also be a boost for tourism from all the people interested in looking at the icebergs.The Emirates Iceberg Project comes from a group of efforts by NABL called - 8 -“Filling the Empty Quarter”.
