  4. Hi,

    OK, so the most basic explanation:

    True = the text sames the same thing as the statement
    False= the text says the opposite
    Not given = neither true nor false because it isn’t in the text.

  5. In these days, most of the people are living away from their family. But, at the same time, there is also a strong counter-argument amongst many others that, the culture is spoiling by this trend. However, I personally subscribe to the view that, this makes positive impact instead negative.

    First and the foremost, mostly the youngsters want to live independently by living far from their families. With this, they can mold their life by learning how to earn money and how to become a famous person in the society. For example, most of the great people lived away from their families and totally concentrated on their work.

    Secondly, many people are living independently because they does not want to follow their elder’s suggestions. This shows their braveness and self-confidence. For example, my brother does not like to live with my family because he is expecting freedom to live without anyone commands. So many times he escaped from my home and lived with his friends.

    Therefore, persuaded by what has been discussed till now as well as compelled by what I have learnt and expressed, I would like to reiterate that If people live how they want to be, perhaps give more rights to live them up.
