Task 2. Read the texts and choose the right answer.
Are British teenagers fashion-mad?
Recently a company asked young people in the United Kingdom some questions about money and shopping. They discovered the British teenagers cannot live without buying new clothes, even when they do not have much money. We have interviewed British teenagers to see if they really are mad about fashion.

I go shopping for clothes with my friends every Saturday. Today I I’ve bought things that I don’t really need too. However a new dress or top can make you feel really good. So, it’s worth (it costs) the money even if you only wear it once. To be honest, I don’t really look at the price. When I like something, I just buy it. I’ve written article about fashion in our school magazine and I’ve drawn some designs for clothes. Maybe one day I’ll be a fashion designer myself.

Me? Mad about fashion? No, way! I hate shopping for clothes. My mum usually buys me stuff (different things). She knows what I like. The things I wear aren’t usually very expensive. Personally, I think that people send too much money on clothes. The most expensive thing I’ve ever bought is my leather jacket. I bought it two years ago. It looks good, so why should I buy a new one?
Max Dawson
You can’t just buy jeans or T-shirt nowadays. They have to be Calvin Klein jeans or Dolce and Gabbana T -shirt. My friends all wear designer clothes, so I’ve started doing te same. I’ve just spent a hundred pounds on one shirt! Sometimes I’ve found that later I don’t even like what I’ve bought. However it’s important for me to wear the same clothes as my friends. If not, I’m not part of the group.
