Task 1. Reading.
Living with the enemy
People often say that living with teenagers is worse than living with any other age
group. But is this true? We talked to two parents with teenage children to find out.
Yes, sometimes it is really difficult living with teenagers. But it isn't only their
age, it's also the type of people they are. My two sons are completely different.
Tom's easier to live with than Harry. Harry's a typical moody fifteen-year-old.
He's a lot noisier and more aggressive than Tom, and he isn't as considerate. So
he's much harder to live with. But Harry's got his good side too. He is very bright
and his exam results are always better than Tom's.
Tom's two years older than Harry, so he's more mature and less stubborn than his
brother. He is also a bit more patient and can be very helpful when he wants to be.
But he's got bigger problems at school. He is as intelligent as Harry, but he is
much lazier and his exam results are always worse than his brother's. Harry wants
to be a pilot when he leaves school, but Tom doesn't know what he wants to do.
In some ways I'm a bit more worried about Harry because he is not as happy as
Tom. But I also worry about Tom because he has not got any plans for his future.
Yes, life is hard living with teenagers, but I'll miss them when they leave home.
