People of your age, like your classmates and friends, are called your peers. When they try to influence how you act or get you to do something, they bring you peer pressure(同伴压力).
Peers can have a good influence on each other. They learn from each other and make progress together. Sometimes, however, peers influence each other in bad ways. For example, a few classmates might get you to cut class(逃课), or a friend might want you to try smoking.
Some children give in to(屈服于) peer pressure, because they want to be liked or because they worry that other children might make fun of them if they don’t go along with the group. Others go along with the group because they want to try something new that their peers are doing. So it’s hard to be the only one to say “no” to peer pressure. But you can do it.
Paying attention to your own feelings about what is right can help you do the right thing. You can simply stay away from peers who ask you to do something wrong. When you find it difficult to deal with peer pressure, you can talk to someone you trust. Don’t feel sorry if you’ve made a mistake. Speaking it out can help you feel much better.
根据上述内容，判断下列句子正（T）误（F）。
1.Your peers include your classmates and your parents.
2.It’s good for peers to learn from each other and make progress together.
3.Peers never influence each other in bad ways.
4.Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked by other kids.
5.It’s important to know what is right in front of peer pressure.
