Passage 3
6
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. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not
yet been accepted. So they 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 plan to control your life, 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
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
Passage 4
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.
