READING. Read this text and then complete tasks A and B. 5 x 0.20 = 1 marks

Famous families like the Kardashians or the Beckhams appear in magazines every week, choosing to attend film openings or enjoying holidays in beautiful locations. Some famous children have a long list of

social media followers before they can even speak. But what is life like for celebrity children?

Willow Smith, the daughter of American actor Will Smith, spoke recently about her experience of growing up with photographers following her around. For Willow, it made her sad when people who didn’t know

her laughed at her or made comments about her. She got particularly mad when journalists felt they had the right to know everything about her life, when she had told them to leave her alone.

A recent study has shown the many advantages for the children of celebrity parents. Top universities offer them places even when their grades aren’t great and famous designers give them free clothes. But these

kids are also under a lot of stress. People expect them to be super-talented and super-attractive, just like their parents and they are very rude when the children aren’t so talented or so good-looking as their parents

are.

In 2007 Willow Smith decided to become a singer. By 2010 she was the youngest artist on Jay-Zs record label Rock Nation. However, if she becomes successful, some people will say that it’s because of her

family’s contacts and not her musical talent. Anyway, she believes that to have real success you have to work hard and people will recognise that, whoever your parents are.

Task A: Circle T for True and F for False.


1- The article only shows the advantages of having famous parents. T F

2- A recent study has shown that celebrity children are compared to their parents. T F

3- When Willow was a child, she enjoyed to hear people talking about her. T F

Task B: Circle the correct answer a, b or c.


4- In line 6 ‘they’ refers to a) celebrity children b) celebrities c) journalists

5- In line 13 ‘it’ refers to a) work b) success c) talent
