Упр.2 Юнит 4 Урок 2 ГДЗ English Кузовлев 10-11 класс

In Britain, the 21st birthday traditionally means coming of age. But young people get many important rights before they become 21. Adults say that children today grow up more quickly, because the law makes it possible.

Listen to some British teenagers and complete the chart about what they can or can’t do because of the age limits. Guess their age.

(listening for specific information/taking notes)

Frank: I’m lucky. I can leave school and join the army next year. That’s the life for a real man.

Stacey: Money. That’s what my worries are all about. I don’t have enough to cover my expenses. I’m old enough to have a part-time job. And I can even leave school now and work full-time. But my parents want me to get an education first.

Denis: If you ask me, the worst thing is that I can’t still get a driving license. They say I’m not old enough yet. But I am old enough to pay full ticket on transport. And I have my own passport.
