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.

You can do a few things to make homework less (1) . First, be sure you understand the
assignment. Write it (2) in your notebook or day planner if you need to, and don’t be afraid to ask
questions about what is expected. It is much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to

school, there may be other teachers who teach the same subject. Speak to other teachers directly and you may be
in luck. Sometimes it just helps to have someone (9) something in a different way. (10)

good
student, think about asking that person if you can study together.
