 I. Прочтите текст, переведите и ответьте на следующие за ним вопросы, обведя букву правильного ответа кружком
People are always talking about “the problem of youth.” If there is one — which I leave to doubt — then it is older people who create it, not the youth themselves. Let us agree that the young are after all human beings — people just like their elders. There is only one difference between an old man and a young one: the young man has a glorious future before him and the old one has splendid future behind him.
When I was a teenager, I felt that I was young and uncertain – that I was a new boy in a huge school, and I would have been very pleased to be regarded as a problem. Because being a problem gives you a certain identity and that is one of the things the young are busily engaged in looking for.
I rind young people exciting. They have an air of freedom, and they have no devotion to material things. All this seems to me to link them with life, and the origins of things. It’s as if they were in some sense cosmic beings in great contrast with us earth people. All that is in my mind when I meet a young person. He may be shy and ill-mannered. But I accept that we are equals, and I will argue with him, as an equal, if I think he is wrong.
