Exercise 8. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct word that best fits each of the numbered blanks.

A POWERFUL INFLUENCE

There can be no doubt at all that the Internet has made a huge difference to our lives. Parents are worried that children spend too much time playing on the Internet, hardly (106)....doing anything else in their spare time. Naturally, parents are curious to find out why the Internet is so attractive, and they want to know if it can be (107)....for their children. Should parents be worried if their children are spending that much time (108)....their computers?

Obviously, if the children are bent over their computers for hours, (109)....in some game, instead of doing their homework, then something is wrong. Parents and children could decide how much use the child should (110)....of the Internet, and the child should give his or her (111)....that it won't interfere with homework. If the child is not (112)....to this arrangement, parents can take more drastic (113).....Dealing with a child's use of the Internet is not much different from (114)....any other sort of bargain about behavior.

Any parent who is seriously alarmed about a child's behavior should make an appointment to (115)....the matter with a teacher. Spending time in front of the screen does not (116)....affect a child's performance at school. Even if the child is (117)....crazy about using the Internet, he or she is probably just going through a phase, and in a few months there will be something else to worry about!

Exercise 9. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

WHAT IS YOUR LEARNING STYLE?

If you find yourself learn better by making notes during the lecture, or when the teacher uses a new word, you want to see it written immediately, then you are very likely to be a more visual learner. You prefer to see the written words. You learn by reading and writing. Visual learners often think in pictures. If you find a particular task or text difficult, look for sources that will suit your learning style, e.g. sources with illustrations, charts, tables, or videos.

If you prefer recording the lecture and listening again to taking notes, or you memorize something by repeating it aloud instead of writing it out several times, you are probably a more auditory learner. You prefer to learn by listening and speaking. Auditory learners often learn best from lectures, discussions, by reading aloud, and by listening to audio material.

However, it is probably that you, like most people, learn through a mixture of styles. Sometimes you may prefer to learn by reading, at othe
