Task 1 On reading this paragraph, find and underline topic sentence, supporting sentences, and concluding sentences. "Honor your mother and father and you will live long and be well, if not, you will die" – says the Bible. Some families are happy, some are dead. It seems to me the reason is misunderstanding of each other in the family. One more thing, teenagers can take on most of the rights and responsi-bilities of adulthood. Before this occurs, however, they go through the pe¬riod of adolescence and most of them experience conflicts at that time. They change rapidly both physically and emotionally and they search self-identity as they grow up and become more independent. Sometimes teenagers develop interests and values different from those of their parents. That sets a conflict between two generations, which leads to a gap in mutual understanding. Traditional disagreements are: the time to come home at night, doing work about the house and the friends to spend time with. I'd like to point out, that teens face a number of problems: drinking al¬cohol or using drugs. Moreover, some children run away from their homes. Most of them return after a few days or weeks, but some turn to crime and become juvenile delinquents. I'm convinced that sometimes parents do not bring up their children in a good way. It is exactly at that age when young people need a piece of advice or help.
