VIII. Read and answer
In Britain some families feel that learning at home is better than going to school. Home schooled children can choose
when they want to learn. Does this sound more enjoyable than school? Andrian is a science prodigy and he wants to start
university by the age of fourteen. He finds school lessons easier than the ones he expects but making friends is more
difficult. At home he can spend more time on his favourite subjects and is preparing to take many of his exams early. Does
he ever take a break? "Yes", he says, "I don't study subjects I'm not interested in". Holly's parents weren't happy with the
local school, so they made a decision to teach her at home. Her favourite is history and she often goes to the museum to
study. "I couldn't do that before", she says, "and this is more interesting than school was". Her parents are always happy to
help her. Andrian and Holly love learning at home, but some people think that studying at school is more useful because it
trains you for adult life. It teaches you to be with people you don't like, but it can also help you to make friends. Are these
things more important than lessons?
