Tensions (115) _ Great Britain and the American colonies arose when Parliament sought to tax the colonies and placed a tax on tea Colonists argued that, (116) _ to the British Constitution, British subjects could be taxed only by their own representatives; because the colonies were not represented in Parliament, they could not be taxed by (117) _ body Colonists organized economic boycotts, and by

Error Identification and Correction
The following text comes from a student's essay It contains 10 mistakes of grammar or vocabulary There are no punctuation mistakes Find the mistakes, UNDERLINE them and WRITE the corrections in the space provided to the right of the text Remember to write the corrections in the order in which they appear in
the passage (0) has been done as an example
Nowadays, it is a sad realism that more and more teenagers take
up smoking, drinking alcohol or even worse take drugs
The main reason for this situation is bad influence from their
peers Also another reason might be curious Finally, parents set
sometimes a bad example if they smoke or drink
First of all, the main solution to the problem is for the parents to
get to know their children's peers In this way, they will be able to
check who they are, if they are a negative influence, and as a
consequence prevent their children from misleading
Also, it will be useful if the State established more recreational
centers In this way, young people wouldn’t go to bars or clubs to
enjoy themselves Apart from recreational centers, more sports places
would be useful Research has shown that a young person who spends
most or no leisure time with sports will avoid bad habits
Finally, at schools teachers should assign projects at connection
with the destructive consequences of these habits on a person's life As
a result, students who will prepare the projects will realize that these
habits may be fatal Specialists could organize some of lectures and a
special subject could be introduced
To sum up, it is obvious that there are solutions to the problem
However, until action is made, the situation will simply get worse
