Question 2
A. ‘Be home by 9.30’
This always happens. You
persuade your parents to let you
go to a party, then they make you
come home before most people
even get there. If you try to argue,
they’ll say something like:
“You’re lucky we are letting you
go out at all.” In order to win this
one, you have to get inside their
heads and work out why they
don’t want you to go in the first
place. Then come up with a
sensible solution. If they think
staying out late is dangerous,
reassure them it isn’t. Tell them
where the party is, who you’re
going with and who’s going to be
there, because parents want to
know stuff like that. Also tell
them you’ll get a cab home. (yes
it’s expensive but much safer than
walking or getting the bus) This is
exactly the sort of thing your
parents want to hear.
B ‘As long as you live under my D ‘Why should we raise your
roof, you’ll live by my rules.’ allowance?’
This is a classic angry parent
phrase, used whenever they’re
losing an argument. Make them
realise they’re laying down the
law for no reason. Don’t go
mental, just stay cool and say, ‘If
you’re not going to be reasonable,
I’m not going to argue with you.’
That way you sound sensible and
mature, and your parents don’t
and are much less likely to
continue screaming at you. The
only problem is, sometimes they
are being reasonable and say
annoying things like, ‘If you don’t
do your homework, you’ll ge into
trouble.’ Then you have to try and

C. ‘You are not going out looking
like that!’
Obviously girsl get this more than
boys, but my mum hates it when I
wear ridiculous baggy jeans.
Whether it is midriff-baring tops or
enormous jeans. It comes down to
the same thing. They worry about
what people who don’t know you
will think. It’s not that big a deal
when you think about it, but it still
causes big fights because neither
of you wants to back down.
Changing your clothes is the
obvious way to avoid an argument,
but you shouldn’t have to, Right?
No matter what you look like,
you’re the same person and you’ll
act the same way. You need to
make them realise this. If you have
any old photos of them when they
were teenagers, dig them out.
They’re sure to be wearing just as
unsuitable clothes as you, so
they’ll feel hypocritical not letting
you wear them, and they’ll know
exactly what it feels like to be
judged by their appearance.
This is tricky. You’ve spent all this
time trying to persuade your
parents you’re independent, then
you ask them for mone. They’ll
probably say something like, ‘If
you’re so independent, why don’t
you get a job?’ or something
equally annoying. You could try
getting a job, but jobs are hard,
boring and leave you with less
time for partying. And what’s the
point if you can just get money off
your parents? What you need to do
is persuade your parents getting a
job is a bad idea. Weigh up the
advantages and disadvantages, so
you sound like you’ve thought it
 strike a deal, like ‘OK, If I get all
my homework and chores done
tonight, ¿can I go the cinema with
my mates tomorrow?’
through and know what you’re
talking about. If you say jobs are
too hard and boring and you’d
rather be out partying (even though
that’s true), you’ll sound
irresponsible and you’re much less
likely to get a raise. Instead, say a
job would interfere with your
schoolwork. You’ll score major
points with your parents, as it
sounds like you’ve got your
priorities right.

AFTER READING SECTION A, B , C AND D, WRITE

SECTION E IN 50 WORDS AS MINIMUM,
REMEMBER, SECTION E MUST BE RELATED TO THE
TOPIC OF THE ARTICLE.

Your Answer:
E. "Willing to understand"
When you are young you believe that most of the time you are rigth
but what you don't know and don't take into account is that your
parents already lived it, they know how things are and sometimes they
may be strict but it is for the good of their children and because they
don't want anything bad to happen to them. But we know that
sometimes they overthink things a lot and to prevent taht from
happening we must agree with them and put ourselves in their place as
parents.

be careful with spelling and organized your ideas better.
