III. Read the passage and choose the correct answer to each of the
questions.
If parents bring up a child with the sole aim of turning the child into a genius,
they will cause a disaster. According to several scientists, this is one of the
biggest mistakes which ambitious parents make. Generally, the child will be
only too aware of what his parents expect, and will fail. Unrealistic parental
expectations can cause great damage to children.
However, if parents are not too unrealistic about what they expect their
children to do, but are ambitious in a sensible way, the child may succeed in
doing very well – especially if the parents are very supportive of their child.
Michael is very lucky. He is crazy about music, and his parents help him a lot
by taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons for him.
They even drive him 50 kilometers twice a week for violin lessons. Michael’s
mother knows very little about music, but his father plays the trumpet in a large
orchestra. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is
unwilling.
Winston, Michael’s friend, however, is not so lucky. Both his parents are
successful musicians, and they set too high a standard for Winston. They want
their son to be as successful as they are and so they enter him for every piano
competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win. Winston is
 always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he always seems quiet
and unhappy.
