Read the text and answer the questions. The life of modern teenagers
Many things have changed over the past decades. Same can be said about the life of modern teenagers. Today teens are more independent, have other interests, and are definitely lazier than before.
Computer is the root of most changes in the society. Modern teenagers spend almost all their free time online, playing computer games, chatting with friends, surfing social networks, instead of going out and doing some outdoor activities. If you ask a teenager what the life was like twenty or thirty years ago, he won’t answer, because he doesn’t know. Modern children simply can’t imagine their life without cell phones, tablets and MP3 players. These gadgets have gradually replaced the whole world of childish games and live communication.
Previous generations of teenagers could still be seen in the streets jumping, running around and playing active games. Today, teenagers are mostly seen online. From the one hand, it’s certainly not good. From the other hand, this can be understood. How can children avoid electronic toys if they are everywhere? Other than that, the life of teenagers is not easy. They have a number of problems, which they don’t want to discuss with adults. Chatting with friends, at least they can share with them. Being online, they can also find answers for many urgent questions or problems. Modern teenagers are luckier than other generations for having the freedom of choice and life full of possibilities. It’s a “computer-based” generation. Even their homework is done with the help of computers and the Internet.

перевод :Пожары, которые происходят в доме, сегодня являются очень серьезной проблемой. В Америке ежегодно происходит более 100 000 домашних пожаров, и многие из них начинаются на кухне. Есть много вещей, которые вы можете сделать, чтобы защитить свой дом от огня. Прежде всего, вам нужно соблюдать несколько правил безопасности. Вы никогда не должны покидать кухню во время приготовления пищи. Это также плохая идея, чтобы носить свободную одежду, когда вы готовите. Всегда держите зону приготовления пищи чистой и не позволяйте детям подходить слишком близко к плите. Также важно знать, что делать, если начнется пожар. Если кастрюля загорится, не бросайте на нее воду! Накройте его одеялом и выключите огонь. Если огонь не погаснет, вызовите пожарную команду. Если в духовке начинается пожар, держите дверцу закрытой и выключите ее. Если вы обжигаетесь, то облейте ожог холодной водой. Наконец, установите дымовую сигнализацию и научитесь ею пользоваться. Кроме того, знайте номер своей пожарной команды наизусть. Лучше перестраховаться, чем потом жалеть.

Объяснение:
last summer I spent with my grandparents. Their cottage is located near the small, quiet and beautiful town of Myshkin on the Volga. The house has six rooms: three downstairs and three upstairs. Grandfather even has his own office, where there are many, many books and a computer. The most interesting place in the house is the attic. There are many things that remind of my childhood. The closest neighbors are very sociable and caring people, they help grandparents when we are not. As a child, I usually spent every summer here, so I have many friends. Near the house there is a huge football field, and last summer we often played soccer. Of course, we went camping, smashed our sticks and slept in sleeping bags. It was great! But not only did I enjoy life, I had to fulfill household chores: I vacuumed the whole house. My friends offered to help repair my room. We used a hose from a vacuum cleaner to whiten it. Beautiful summer! 2.-Anya, I need to talk to you -Oh, what's wrong again? -Look at the mess in the kitchen. Can't you clean up after yourself? -I'm busy, I work on a computer. -Don't forget, you also have crazy duties. I work from morning till night, I shop, cook dinner. - You're right, mom. Five minutes later, I will wash the dishes. -Great! Thank you!
