An individual's personality is the complex of mental characteristics that makes them unique from other
people It includes all of the patterns of thought and emotions that cause us to do and say things in particular ways
At a basic level, personality is expressed through our temperament or emotional tone However, personality also
colours our values, beliefs, and expectations There are many potential factors that are involved in shaping a
personality These factors are usually seen as coming from heredity and the environment Research by
psychologists over the last several decades has increasingly pointed to hereditary factors being more important,
especially for basic personality traits such as emotional tone
However, the acquisition of values, beliefs, and expectations seem to be due more to socialization and
unique experiences, especially during childhood Some hereditary factors that contribute to personality
development do so as a result of interactions with the particular social environment in which people live For
instance, your genetically inherited physical and mental capabilities have an impact on how others see you and,
subsequently, how you see yourself Likewise, your health and physical appearance are likely to be very important
in your personality development You may be frail or robust You may have a learning disability These largely
hereditary factors are likely to cause you to feel that you are nice - looking, ugly, or just adequate Likewise, skin
colour, gender, and sexual orientation are likely to have a major impact on how you perceive yourself Whether
Trang 4you are accepted by others as being normal or abnormal can lead you to think and act in a socially acceptable or
marginal and even deviant way
There are many potential environmental influences that help to shape personality Child rearing practices
are especially critical In the dominant culture of North America, children are usually raised in ways that encourage them to become self-reliant and independent Children are often allowed to act somewhat like equals to their
parents In contrast, children in China are usually encouraged to think and act as a member of their family and to
suppress their own wishes when they are in conflict with the needs of the family Independence and self-reliance
are viewed as an indication of family failure and are discouraged

All over the country, young people are entering a world of homelessness and poverty, according to a recent report by the housing group, Shelter
Nearly 150,000 young people aged between sixteen and twenty-five will become homeless this year, says Shelter Some of the young homeless may sleep out in the open in such places as the “cardboard city” in London,
where people of all ages sleep in the open air in their only home - cardboard boxes Others may find
accommodation in shelters run by voluntary organisations or get a place in a hostel, which gives them board up to ten weeks
But who are these people? Those who are seeking a roof over their heads are mostly not runaways but
“throwaways” — people who have been thrown out of their homes or forced to leave because of parental divorce,
an unsympathetic step-parent or one of many other reasons
Take the case of one six teen-year-old schoolgirl, Alice She did not come from a poor home and had just
passed her exams with good results The Shelter team met her in a hostel where she was doing her physics
homework Her parents had thrown her out of her home for no other reason that she wanted to do Science
Advanced Level Exams - which her parents refused her permissionjo do, saying that studying sciences was
unladylike!
Shelter says that the government’s laws do nothing to help these youngsters Rising rents, the shortage of
cheap housing and the cut in benefits for young people under the age of twenty-five are causing a national
problem, according to Shelter The recent changes in the benefit laws mean that someone aged between sixteen and twenty-five gets less than older people and they can only claim state help if they prove that they left home for a
good reason
Shelter believes that because of the major cuts in benefits to young people, more and more are being forced
to sleep on the streets Shelter also points out that if you are homeless, you can’t get a job because employers will
not hire someone without a permanent address; and if you can’t get a job, you are homeless because you don’t
have any money to pay for accommodation It’s an impossible situation

A Her parents didn’t agree with what she wanted to do
B She didn’t want to study for her Advanced Level Exams
C She had not obtained high marks in her exams

Question 47: According to the passage, “benefits” are
