Explanation:

Question 1

Setting goals for teenagers is about personal development. Making more friends or becoming popular is not a direct benefit of goal - setting. Getting better grades automatically is unrealistic as goals need effort. Developing new skills and habits is a key benefit of goal - setting as goals guide them to learn and form good habits.

The first step in setting SMART goals should be about the teenager's own self. Thinking about parents' wants or copying friends' goals is not self - directed. Creating a list of goals comes after knowing one's own values, interests, and passions. So identifying their values, interests, and passions is the first step.

A specific goal has a concrete outcome. Identifying criteria to measure progress is for a measurable goal. Having a clear vision is more about the overall aim, not specificity. Making a goal challenging but attainable is for an achievable goal. So defining a goal with a concrete outcome is what makes a goal specific.

Answer:

C. It helps them develop new skills and habits
