 My name's Mandi.Three months ago,I went to disco where I met a boy called Tom. I guessed he was older 
than me, but I liked him and thought it didn't matter. We danced a couple of times, then we chatted. He said 
he was 18, then asked how old I was. I told him I was 16. I thought that if I told him my real age, he 
wouldn't want to know me, as I'm only 13. After the dicso we arranged to meet the following weekend. The 
next Saturday we went for a hamburger and had a real laugh. Afterwards he walked me to my street and 
kissed me goodnight.Things went really well. We see each other a couple of times a week, but I've had to lie 
to my parents about where I'm going and who with. I've always got on with them, but I know if they found 
out how Tom was, they'd stop me seeing him. Now I really don't know what to do. I can't go on lying to my 
parents every time I go out, and Tom keeps asking he can't come around to my house. I'm really worried and 
I felt complicated. I need some advice now. “From the helpline on the magazine for teens.”

Read the passage and mark A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions.
 Television is very popular and even has some benefits for kids. It helps very young children learn the 
letters of the alphabet, and helps other kids learn about science, cultures, and world events. However, 
researchers show that watching too much TV is bad for children. For one thing, there is a link between 
watching more than four hours of TV a day and being overweight. For another thing, many TV shows are 
violent and upsetting. Watching them may cause kids to be more fearful. And of course, more time in front 
of the TV means less time to study. Too much TV may also be the cause of lower grades. Experts do not 
agree on the solution to these problems. Some say that kids should watch only educational programs; others 
say kids should watch no TV at all. And others suggest teaching them to watch TV as occasional 
entertainment, not as an everyday hobby.

 The thing I like most about living on a farm when I was small was the change of seasons spring summer, autumn 
and winter. I could see the change all come and go and each one was completely different. If hadn't been born and 
raised in the country, I would have never been able to tell the difference. Now in the city. you can buy summer flowers 
in winter and eat the same vegetables all the year round. Whereas, in the country I could only eat things at certain 
times of the year. For example, strawberries in June and turnips in winter lived my childhood with the seasons.
 Also we made most of our food and would never eat frozen or tinned food. Everything was fresh, so it must be 
better than the type of food I am taking now in the city, City people think that people in the country miss a lot of good 
things about modern life, but in my opinion they miss a lot more than them. They miss real life.
