5. Stella McCartney was born in 1972, the daughter of pop star Sir Paul McCartney. She is the youngest of three sisters. One sister is a potter and the other sister does the same job as their mother used to do - she works as a photographer. Stella's brother, James, is a musician. Stella first hit the newspaper headlines in 1995 when she graduated in fashion design from art college. At her final show, her clothes were modeled by her friends, Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss, both well-known models. Unsurprisingly, the student show became front-page news around the world. Stella hadn't been in the news before as a fashion designer but she had spent time working in the fashion world since she was fifteen. In March 1997, Stella went to work for the fashion house Chloe. People said the famous fashion house had given her the job because of her surname and her famous parents but Stella soon showed how good she was. She designs clothes which she would like to wear herself, although she's not a model, and many famous models and actors choose to wear them. In 2001 Stella started her own fashion house and has since opened stores around the world and won many prizes. A lifelong vegetarian, McCartney does not use any leather or fur in her design. Instead, she uses silk, wool and other animal-derived fabrics. 1. Which of the following is NOT true about Stella's family? A. She has three sisters. B. One of her sisters is a photographer. C. She is the youngest. D. Her father is a famous singer. 2. Stella, Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss ___. A. met for the first time at her fashion show B. are very famous fashion models C. had been friends before 1995 D. all performed at the final show in 1995 3. Which of the following is TRUE about the show? A. Everyone was surprised when Stella's show was successful. B. The models performed clothes designed by Stella. C. The show was the last show of Stella. D. There was no one famous appearing in the show. 4. Stella thinks about the kinds of clothes that ___. A. famous people like to wear B. she likes to wear C. well-known models perform beautifully D. bring her prizes 5. The word “lifelong” in the passage is closest in meaning to ___. A. permanent B. inconstant C. temporary D. changing It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are old- fashioned, possessive and dominant; that they do not trust their children to deal with obstacles; that they talk too much about certain problems and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships. I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young. Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. They want to create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste. Sometimes you are resistant and proud because you do not want your parents to approve of what you do. If they did approve, it looks as if you are betraying your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are the underdog: you can you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents' control. But it ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself. If you want to improve the relationship with your parents, co-operation can be part of that plan. You can charm others, especially parents, into doing things the ways you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do. 1. What is paragraph 1 mainly about? A. The teenagers' criticism of their parents B. Misunderstandings between teenagers and their parents C. The dominance of the parents over their children D. The teenagers' ability to deal with difficulty 2. According to paragraph 2, teenagers tend to have strange clothes and hairstyles because they ___. A. want to show their existence by creating a culture of their own B. have a strong desire to be leaders in style and taste C. have no other way to enjoy themselves better D. want to irritate their parents
6. 3. The word "superior" in the passage is closest in meaning to ___. A. passive B. dominant C. advantageous D. updated 4. Teenagers do not want their parents to approve of whatever they do because they ___. A. have already been accepted into the adult world B. are not likely to win over the adults C. have a desire to be independent D. feel that they are superior in a small way to the adults 5. To improve parent-child relationships, teenagers are advised to be ___. A. obedient B. responsible C. co-operative D. independent The generation gap refers to the difference in attitudes or behaviour between a younger generation and the older one. In my opinion, different attitudes towards life, different views about certain problems, and a lack of communication can cause a generation gap in most societies. The first factor is that parents and children generally see things from different perspectives. Choosing a career is a good example for this. Many parents try to impose certain careers they favour on their children, based on their own perceptions. However, young people don't always understand their parents' points of views. Instead, they prefer to be free to make their own decisions on their future career. Another factor lies in differences in musical tastes, fashion, and political views between young people and their parents. For example, having a pierced nose might be viewed as fashionable by some teens, but for many parents, it is considered to be an act of rebellion against social norms. Some parents may also find their children's behaviour unacceptable and disrespectful to traditional values. The major factor causing the generation gap is the lack of communication between parents and their children. Parents tend to be dominant and not to trust their children to deal with crises. Also, they keep talking too much about certain problems. That is the reason why young people seldom reveal their feelings to their parents. When facing problems, young people prefer to seek help from their classmates or friends. The above mentioned factors could lead to a generation gap. In order to bridge the gap, mutual understanding is the vital key. The wisest solution would be for parents and their children to treat each other as friends. 1. How many causes of the generation gap are mentioned? A. 2 B. 3 C. 4 2. How do young people usually react when their parents impose career choices on them? A. They want to make their own decisions. B. They follow their parents ‘advice. C. They try to understand their parents' goodwill. 3. What do parents often think about nose piercing? A. They think that it is acceptable. B. They think that it is fashionable. C. They think that it is against social norms. 4. What do young people often do when they face problems? A. They share the problems with their parents. B. They ask their classmates or friends for help. C. They ask their parents for help. 5. What would be the best way to narrow the generation gap? A. Parents and children should try to be friends and understand each other. B. Parents should be tolerant and let children do what they want. C. Children should follow their parents' advice. D.

Read the passage and choose the best option to answer the question. During the teenage years, many young people can at times be difficult to talk to. They often seem to dislike being questioned. They may seem unwilling to talk about their work in school. This is a normal development at this age, though it can be very hard for parents to understand. It is part of becoming independent of teenagers trying to be adult while they are still growing up. Young people are usually more willing to talk if they believe that questions are asked out of real interest and not because people are trying to check up on them. Parents should do their best to talk to their sons and daughters about school work and future plans. However, it is not a good idea that parents push teenagers to talk if they do not want to. Parents should also watch for the danger signs: some young people in trying to be adult may experiment with sex, drugs, alcohol, or smoking. Parents need to watch for any signs of unusual behavior which may be connected with these and get help if necessary. 1. This passage is taken from a .

There are many proverbs about friends and friendship, such as “True friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it is lost”, and “A real friend is someone who walks in when the rest of the world walks out”. When you read these quotes, stop and think about your friendship. Do you and your friends act in a caring way towards one another, do you respect them and do they respect you, but most of all do you value the relationship and love spending time together? Friendship is more than just hanging out together at lunch and gossiping about other people. True friendship is when two people have mutual respect for one another, and really care about the each other’s feelings and dreams. You need to be able to be honest with your friends. If there is ever a time where you feel that you cannot tell them the truth, for fear that they will be mad or will not understand, then they are not true friends. Friends share with each other important things that they would not share with others. Friends also care about each other, stick up for one another and enjoy spending time together. 1.

Teenage relationships Romantic relationships are a major developmental milestone. They come with all the other changes going on during adolescence - physical, social and emotional. And they're linked to a teenager's growing interest in body image and looks, independence and privacy. Romantic relationships can bring lots of emotional ups and downs for a teenager- and sometimes for the whole family. The idea that the teenager might have these kinds of feelings can sometimes be a bit confronting for his or her parents. But these feelings are leading your child towards a deeper capacity to care, share and develop intimate relationships. There isn't a ‘right age’ to start having relationships - every child is different. But here are some averages of when teenage relationships start. From 9-11 years, your child might start to show more independence from the family and more interest in friends. From 10-14 years, your child might want to spend more time in mixed gender groups, which might eventually end up in a romantic relationship. From 15-19 years, romantic relationships can become central to social life. Friendships might become deeper and more stable. Many teenagers spend a lot of time thinking and talking about being in a relationship. In these years, teenage relationships might last only a few weeks or months. It's also normal for children to have no interest in romantic relationships until their late teens. Some choose to focus on schoolwork, sport, or other interests. Before starting having relationships, a teenager might have one or more first crushes. An
13. identity crush is when a teenager finds someone he or she admires and wants to be like. A romantic crush is the beginning of romantic feelings. It is about a teenager imagining another person as perfect or ideal, which can tell a lot about what he or she finds attractive in people. Romantic crushes tend not to last very long because ideas of perfection often break down when he or she gets to know the other person better. These intense feelings are real, so it's best to take crushes seriously and not make fun of them. (Text adapted from net. au/articles/relationships_teenagers. html) 1.
