Families are the most important parts o f our society If the families in a community arestrong, it means this community is much more (1) In my opinion, havingextended families to live together is the best for some reasons.

Furthermore, it is good to live in extended families to share the house expenses If youlive in a city, you must pay rent, gas and electricity (7) as well as for creditcards etc It is really hard to pay them alone, but if you live with your extended family it means, you can share all the expenses

For family rules to work well, everyone needs to know, understand, and follow the rules

By doing this, children don’t get confused about the family rules For example, you may feel that jum ping on the bed is a dangerous behavior You set a family rule that, “The bed will be used only for sitting, lying, or sleeping.” If another adult jum ps on the bed, your child may be confused Your child may think this behavior is sometimes okay This is true for parents, grandparents, or any other adult in your child’s life

The number o f rules you set depends on your child’s ability to understand and remember

It is also hard for parents to consistently enforce lots o f new rules For young children, focus

on only two or three of the most important rules at any one time As your child leams a rule and is following it consistently, you can add new rules.

1 Family rules are useful for children’s future life

3 All the children who break the rules are stubborn and bad

6 It is difficult to set the same number of rules for all the families

Ill-R ea d the passage about parent teenager problems, and then answer the questions.

Parent Teenager Problems

Parent teenager problems are a common thing in most households Reasons for problems between teenagers and parents vary greatly, and each situation is different another, but there are common reasons for parent teenager problems

First, a teenager is getting bad grades at school This can cause a problem because the parents o f a teen who is not getting the best grades in school will

be worried about him graduating from high school and getting into college Also, if a teen gets bad grades, he probably will not get any scholarships for school, which can be a hardship on parents

Next, a teen is hanging out with a bad crowd A teenager who has friends that do things their parents

do not approve o f can end up doing those things too, and the teen's friends will probably not be received well by the parents

Then, a parent who is very strict with their teenager will probably have problems with him at some point It is important to be firm, but not very firm, since this may make a teenager want to rebel even more

If you are having problems with your parents, you will probably want to fix them Lack

o f communication causes a lot o f problems between parents and teenagers It is important for both parties to communicate You should do things together with your parents, such as going

to a movie or playing board games, or go to a family counselor

Fixing a family problem might seem hard, but as long as everyone communicates his or her feelings, everything should work out in the end

4 W hen does a teenager want to rebel?

5 What are the w ays to fix the problems between parents and their teens?

III)-Read the passage about family rules, and then answer the questions.

Just like any institution, a family also needs rules Rules are very important because they keep things in order For a family, rules are as necessary as food and clothing The rules are very important because they maintain peace and order in the family For example, children should respect and listen to their parents

If there are decisions to be made, for example, it is not only the parents who are going to decide especially if the children are already grown up It would be better if everybody is involved in making the decision o f important matters

Rules are needed to maintain a harmonious relationship among family members Parents are there the pillars o f the family and to guide the children to be responsible and practise good values.Rules teach children to become more responsible and have discipline not only at home but especially outside o f the home When there are rules to follow, the children will know what they should and should not do Rules help to avoid conflict and misunderstanding that may lead to fights and aggression especially among children Parents should set rules for the children to follow to avoid quarrels and fights There are times when children fight over simple matters and this happens if the parents do not interfere but when parents set the rules and let the children follow there will be fewer or no conflicts

1 Why are family rules important?

2 Who should be involved in making the decision o f important matters?

Generation Gap: Causes and Solutions

Parents have a common complaint that their children after a certain age tend to disrespect them They look for more freedom and enjoy the company o f their friends rather than staying

at home These all are the changes when the kids grow from teenagers to adulthood This is the time when they want to be treated as big but the parents still consider them small They want to take their own decisions but they can’t because parents are there to take any important decisions about their children So these issues sometimes create a problem and this is when the generation gap comes in

There are lots o f activities which interest the kids more but parents are not willing with it Instead o f arguing w ith children and avoiding the discussion, it will be good that parents take

a step forward and talk to their children

Parents are the best friend o f their children as they act as both good parents and friends

As parents have spent a large amount o f their time with their kids, so it is necessary that parents understand w hat their children are saying and how it can affect their life Any suggestions coming from parents can never be wrong, so teenagers should trust in them as they always want their children to progress in life

Communication is the best way to bridge the gap and find a perfect solution Parents should sit with their children and talk about their needs so that parents know their children’s expectations Parents can also listen to their problems and look for a solution which is best for them Parents mustn’t force them to do anything without interest but make them aware of their duties so that they do it willingly As you are dealing with teenagers, you need to keep yourself in their situation and then think about it

If parents feel that their children are disrespecting, they then tell that if their children want respect, they need to give it to other people too This is a lifetime lesson which they need to learn as it is not limited to their home but also when they go out and work in any organization.Children must understand their limitations If they go beyond that, it will be difficult for them It is the duty o f the parents that they make their kids understand their limitation and define a boundary for them This is done for the benefit o f the children so that they know what

is right and what is w rong for them

31 One o f the main reasons o f the generation gap is th a t

A children can m ake their own decisions

B children were not able to make their own decisions

c the problems o f the generation gap to be small

D children are being treated as a child

32 Teenagers should trust their parents because

A parents are their best friends and they always want their children to make progress

B children understand what they are saying and what can affect their life

24 - Lưu H oằng T rí

Trang 22

C parents always treat their children as they are still young, and listen to them

D parents have spent a large amount of their time at work and at home with their kids

33 In order to bridge the generation gap, one can do all o f the following EX CEPT

A parents should have chats with their children to know their children’s expectations

B parents should listen to their children’s problems and look for a solution

C parents don’t have to force their children to do anything without interest

D parents should make their children aware o f their duties so that they do it willingly

34 In order to solve the problem o f disrespect from children, parents should show th at

A children should go out more often and work in any organization

B if children want respect, they need to show it to their parents too

C parents are not willing with their children’s inappropriate activities

D parents are there to take any important decisions about their children

35 One o f the solutions to the problem o f the generation gap is th a t

A parents make their children know their limitations and their own boundary

B parents must understand their limitations and define a boundary for them

C children should know what is right and what is wrong for both parents and children

D children realized that if parents go beyond their limitations they’ll have problems

C READING

I)-R ead Phong’s story and the counsellor’s answ er, and do the tasks that follow.

Phong: In my school, everyone has a few different groups of friends, such as in our own class

I used to be rather popular in my class, if being popular meant that most o f the girls in my class were my friends and generally liked me Then I fell out o f this friendship with my “best friend” because there were stuff about each other we didn't like, I guess, and we just stopped hanging out together After this, I started hanging out with this other clique in class I was quite close with However, this clique was not really popular in our class The clique was more on the "losers" side, although individually I guess most people were okay with them As time went by, I found m yself feeling more and more embarrassed to be in the same clique permanently as them I was not the most popular student in my school, but I think I was more

on the popular side because I knew quite a lot o f people in our level and I was on the football team at school, where I think being in a sport made us more on the popular side Furthermore,

I felt more and more unappreciated in my clique I didn't think they really appreciated my presence, and it feels like my being there or not made only a little difference to them, although I'm not sure if this is true They also always left me out in conversations, which I really hate, and this makes me feel really sad

Counsellor: I think you should be around people you like or want to be The group being unpopular is not a reason to leave them If you are good enough then, you can make the group popular Choose friends who make you feel comfortable Don't move in groups based on popularity or you may never have people who truly appreciate you Make good friends even if they are a few Don't compare your group with others or people may not trust you

Task 1: Match a word in column A with its definition in column B, writing the answer in each blank.

1 stuff (n) A a small group o f people with the same

interests

2 hang out (phr v) B not include someone

3 clique (n) C a thing or group o f things that one is talking

about

4 leave someone out (phr v) D to recognize the good values o f someone

5 appreciate (v) E to spend a lot of time in a place

Bai tap Tieng Anh 11 - 29

Trang 27

Task 2: Read the text again, and then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).

1 Phong broke up w ith his best friend because they had different tastes

2 Being popular in his school meant m ost o f the girls in his school were his

friends and liked him

3 Phong felt unhappy because the group he was in was not popular in his class

4 Being in a school sport team may make a student become popular

5 Being present w ith other members o f the group or not didn’t make any

difference to Phong

6 The counsellor thought that a member could make the group popular with

his own talents

7 You shouldn’t jo in a group only due to its popularity

8 The counsellor advised Phong to join in the group which truly appreciate him

If you have had an experience like this, don’t worry It is called peer pressure and it happens to everybody However, people have different reactions Confident people refuse to do tilings they don’t want

to do, but shy and anxious people often give in It may

be because they want to be liked It may be because they worry that their friends will make fun o f them, or perhaps they are just curious about trying something new W hatever the reason, some people end up doing _ _ _ things they really don’t want to do

It is hard being th e only one who says no and the question is - how do you do it? Firstly, you must decide what you believe in If you think that missing maths, or smoking, or going somewhere you know your parents wouldn’t like is a bad idea then the answer is simple Don’t

do it It is your decision, not anybody else’s You don’t need to shout and scream, but you must

be confident and you m ust be firm You need to say, “No, thanks I don’t want to do that.”

O f course, being o n your own against everybody else is very hard, so it can really help to have at least one other peer, or friend, who will say no too Choose your friends carefully You want friends to support you when you are in trouble You don’t want people who will always agree with the majority Remember, the most popular people aren’t always the most trustworthy

However, peer pressure is not completely negative You can learn a lot from people of your own age They can teach you great football skills or the best w ay to do your maths
