What is family life like in Britain?
1 The traditional British family is different to how it was in the past. The number of single-parent families is now much higher than in the 1970s. Researchers say that the number of single people is going to increase and that it is going to be higher than the number of married people. In the 1950s and 1960s most people married at a certain age in Britain.
2 In the past, people got married and stayed married. There were not as many divorces as there are today. Divorce was very difficult, expensive and took a long time. Today, peoples views on marriage are changing. Many couples, mostly in their twenties or thirties, live together without getting married. Only about 60 percent of these couples eventually get married.
3 Before, people married and then they had children, but now about 40 percent of children in Britain have parents who are not married. In 2000, around 25 percent of unmarried people between the ages of 16 and 59 were living together in Great Britain. These couples are also starting families without getting married first. Before 1960 this was very unusual.
4 People are generally getting married at a later age now and many women do not want to have children immediately. They want to concentrate on their jobs and then have a baby in their late thirties.
5 The number of single-parent families is increasing. This is generally because more marriages end in divorce, but some women are also choosing to have children on their own as single parents.
6 On average there are 2.4 people in each family home in Britain. This is smaller than most other European countries. It also shows the changes in modern family life in Britain.

Ex. 14. Read the text about young people and technology. Tick () true or cross () false
1 A typical young person uses mobile and internet technologies every day.
2 Young people often use mobile phones to arrange to meet their friends at breakfast time.
3 According to the text, young people discuss school topics on web sites.
4 Instant messengers are young people who chat a lot on the internet.
5 Young people write blogs about their activities and achievements during a day.
6 Photos taken with a mobile phone are difficult to put on the internet.
7 You can design a personal website according to your own style and ideas.
8 You can use an MP3 player to listen to music you have downloaded.
9 Parents and teachers should not protect young people from using the internet.
How young people use technology
The World Wide Web is a wonderful resource, where people can communicate with each other using a wide variety of services.
This advanced technology encourages young people to communicate and share information and interests. A typical young person will use mobile and internet technologies every day. Young people will text friends at breakfast to meet up at the bus stop or use the internet to research some homework or discuss today's History topic with friends on a social networking site.
Apart from school needs, young people use technology to socialise and get together. They chat and catch up with friends on IM (instant messenger). They create and write blogs about what they do every day.
Sharing hobbies and interests is another activity. Young people make their own personal websites using colour, music and images that show their own style. They can easily take photos of themselves, family and school friends on their mobiles and put them on their websites. They often play online games with friends or on their own.
Music on the internet is very popular with young people. They download music tracks from the internet, which they later put onto their MP3 player. They also watch videos online and can even publish and share their own music.
However, as much as young people enjoy the freedom and creativity that new technologies offer them, this online world - just like the real world - is not completely safe. That's why teachers and parents have an important role to play in helping to make a safer online environment for young people. They must check that all sites used by young people are safe.
Generally, the opportunities for young people to use the internet and what it offers in a positive way are very good. This is one of the reasons why the internet is becoming more and more popular among the young generation.
