READING
Read the passage. Circle the best answer A, B, or C to each of the
questions.

Family life has been changing across some Southeast Asian countries over
the past few decades. Many years ago, most of teenagers lived with their
families, spending several hours at school and the rest of time at home
enjoying family atmosphere. Besides their studying, adolescents could do
some housework like doing the dishes, cooking, taking care of younger
children or supporting their family business. These days, studying takes up
such a lot of time that they cannot help much with household chores and
sometimes they even hardly have time to relax. This can lead to suffering
worse health and losing the bond with their family. In families with higher
income, parents are often so busy with their work that they send their
children to private boarding schools, and the time these students share with
families is shortened more and more. In many cases, high-schoolers meet
their siblings and parents at weekends only. It’s believed that there are
some advantages to live and study in academic places, but other benefits
that schools are unlikely to provide should be taken into consideration. For
example, these young learners can learn a lot from their parents about
social skills and doing domestic chores. On one hand, some people think
that teenage students prefer to have privacy than to be controlled by adults,
which may be true. On the other hand, nothing can compare or replace the
parents’ affection in terms of nurturing their children’s souls and their
behaviours. Changes often bring positive results but how people consider
what is important to maintain and preserve is worth thinking again.

1. What is the passage mainly about?

A. The negative effect of living away from family.
B. Some changes in family life in Southeast Asian countries.
C. Teenagers love to live independently rather than rely on their parents.
D. Teenagers’ life today is much better than that of decades ago.
2. What does the word ‘this’ in line 10 mean?
A. The fact that students do not have time to relax.
B. The fact that students cannot help with family work.
C. The fact that students have to spend most of their time studying.
D. The fact that students do too much housework.
3. Long time ago young learners could help their parents with ___________.
A. family chores or parents’ business
 B. family chores and earn money themselves
C. nothing because of their busy curricula
D. nothing because they were busy playing
4. What are the benefits of family education?
A. Children can learn about good conduct.
B. Children can learn about social skills.
C. Children can learn how to do business.
D. Children can learn about good conduct and social skills.
