Task 2. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.
 Family conflicts are an inherent part of human relationships, stemming from the diverse 
personalities, perspectives, and dynamics within a family unit. These conflicts can arise due to various 
factors, including differences in values, communication styles, and expectations.
 One common source of family conflict is different values and beliefs. Each family member may 
have their own set of values and principles, influenced by their upbringing, personal experiences, and 
social influences. These differences can lead to disagreements, particularly when it comes to important 
decisions or lifestyle choices. 
 Communication breakdowns also contribute to family conflicts. Ineffective communication, 
whether it be through misinterpretation, misunderstandings, or lack of active listening, can exacerbate 
tensions and escalate conflicts within the family. Different communication styles and approaches further 
complicate matters, as individuals may have varying preferences for directness, assertiveness, or 
emotional expression.
 Moreover, unfulfilled expectations often become a source of conflict within families. Each family 
member may have their own set of expectations regarding roles, responsibilities, and behaviours. When 
these expectations are not met, it can lead to disappointment, resentment, and conflicts.
 Resolving family conflicts requires open and honest communication and empathy. Active 
listening, seeking to understand others’ perspectives, and finding common ground can help bridge the 
gaps and foster understanding within the family unit. Family members should also be willing to adapt and 
adjust their expectations for peaceful coexistence.
