Part 2. Read and answer questions

Text A. I wish I had given the plain-looking guys a second chance while I was at school. I always went for handsome, athletic type. So, where am I today? Married to a good-looking idiot. A handsome man who has no heart, no compassion, and no love for anyone but himself. I sometimes visit my family back in my home- town and occasionally I run into old classmates – the plain-looking guys . And what do I see now? Very intelligent, warm, funny men who are everything I want, but will never have in a husband

Text B. I wish I had listened to my parents more when I was a teenager. Thinking back, they gave me lots of good advice but I ignored everything they said. I thought they were old and didn’t know anything. Now I have got two teenagers of my own, I realize how right they were. If I had listened to them, I might have made some better decisions in my life. I would have gone to university and probably waited a bit before I got married. I hope my daughter will listen to me more than I listened to my parents.
