1 6 The British today Prepositions: Scottish independence Complete the following text with suitable prepositions. Around a third of 1 Scotland’s four million voters believe that Scotland should leave the UK and become independent, ending the 305-year-old political union 2 England. They believe Scotland would flourish if it had much greater autonomy. A majority of Scots disagree. They believe Scotland is more secure 3 the UK, but many want the Scottish parliament to have greater financial and legal powers. The complex and often turbulent relationship 4 the two neighbours goes back 5 Roman times, when the Roman emperor Hadrian built a wall 6 the northern end of Britain to keep 7 the marauding Scottish tribes. Yet, it turned out that the Scots more often had to fight off attempts 8 their larger neighbour attacking Scotland, rather than the other way round. In 1613, King James VI 9 Scotland also became king of England, but the parliamentary union wasn’t actually secured 10 ninety-four years later. Scottish acceptance of the 1707 Act of Union was the result 11 a combination of factors, including an economic crisis which had ruined the country financially. The Scottish Parliament was abolished 12 return 13 forty-five seats in the House of Commons 14 Westminster. The Scots began to pay English taxes, but retained their own legal and education systems as well as their churches. Resentment simmered, but the two serious challenges to the Union in 1715 and 1745 both failed. In the nineteenth century, the Scots played a significant role 15 the emergence of imperial Britain as soldiers, colonisers and traders. But Scottish nationalism was always present, just 16 the surface of daily life, as the Scots continued to campaign 17 some form of “home rule”. In 1998, Edinburgh got a regional government 18 wide-ranging powers over education, justice and health policies, but with the UK government in charge 19 most taxation, social welfare and the economy, plus defence and foreign policy issues. (Roland Flamini, World Affairs Journal; adapted and abridged) Pronouns: Royal children in the limelight Read the following text and put the correct pronoun into each of the gaps. Leave the gap empty if no pronoun is required. To an extent unseen before, royal children and their parents have been exposed to the public gaze, especially in the case of the Prince of Wales and his family. That may be the reason why the Princess of Wales takes private pictures of her family herself 1 and uses them for the social media activities of the royal family. As royal children cannot decide for 2 if they want to fulfil a public function, even royal babies are in the limelight from the start. 4 5 Nur zu Prüfzwecken – Eigentum des Verlags öbv
1 The British today 7 Traditionally, the arrival of royal babies met with political involvement from the start, with the Home Secretary required to be present at the birth. Yet, the situation has changed 3 a great deal over the years. In 1840, before Queen Victoria gave birth to her first child, the cabinet, the archbishop of Canterbury, the bishop of London and the Lord Steward gathered outside the royal bedchamber. The door was open and the Lord Steward could see and hear 4 all that went on. Moments after her birth, the infant Princess Victoria was carried naked into the outer room and laid on a prepared table to be inspected 5 by the councillors. When the Queen and Princess Margaret were born, Home Secretaries were on the premises but George VI, wisely, terminated this practice before the birth of Prince Charles. Today, royal babies are born in hospitals, so their first public showing comes a day after their birth, when they are carried out into the glare of the media, in 6 mother’s arms – witness Prince William in 1982, and Prince George in 2013. Though the media has become more cynical and less respectful, they remain hungry for stories about the royal family. Infinitive or gerund: What defines Britishness? Read the following text. Then decide whether the verbs from the box should be used as a gerund or an infinitive (with or without to) to fill the gaps. 6 ask • be (2x) • define • feel • include • lead • say The monarchy, the BBC and pubs are among the most important aspects when it comes to defining 1 Britain, according to a new study. However, the pride of Britons in their national identity has fallen to an all-time low, with only one in five young people 2 they are “very proud” to be British, the British Social Attitudes survey has found. According to the figures, shown in The Sunday Times, a third of people claimed 3 very proud to be British, compared with 43% a decade ago. The young and highly educated are the least likely to be 4 proud of being British, when compared to older people or those with fewer qualifications. Penny Young of NatCen Social Research, which carried out the survey, attributed the drop to factors 5 the faltering economy. “There was a lot of confidence in Britain at the turn of the millennium, but now we are still recovering from the financial crash,” she said. “For some people, greater exposure to other countries through budget travel and a wider digital community can 6 them 7 what it means to be British.” Proud or not, almost three quarters of people (74%) see Britain as 8 defined by the monarchy. While 73% see William Shakespeare as the most important figure when it comes to characterising Britishness, 73% also chose the common law system and the House of Commons. The British Social Attitudes survey has been conducted every year since 1983. (Alice Philipson, The Telegraph; adapted and abridged) Nur zu Prüfzwecken – Eigentum des Verlags öbv

The vote was very close, but more people chose to leave than to stay. This decision to leave the EU was called „Brexit“, a short way of saying „British exit“. After the vote, the UK needed several years to plan how to leave the EU, which was a complex process. They had to make many decisions about things like how to trade with other countries, how people could travel between the UK and EU countries and many other important details. Finally, in January 2020, the UK officially left the EU. So, what does this mean for the UK’s future? There might be … 3 ahead, such as finding new partners for trade and deciding on rules for people who want to work or study in other countries.

This decision has sparked a lot of discussions and debates, not only in the UK but also around the world. In the end, Brexit is a unique event in modern history. It shows how important it is for countries to think carefully about their relationships with others and the … 9 of such big decisions. For the UK, Brexit is an ongoing journey, full of possibilities and challenges. It’s a story about a country taking a different path and exploring new ways to engage with the world.

3 14 Regional identities What constitutes an identity? a) Look at the following question posted in an internet discussion forum and write a short answer from your point of view. Peggy Total answers: 243 9:55 a.m. Dear all, I’m curious as to just what constitutes a person’s identity and when someone has one. Is your identity something that one day you just have because you are born with it or is it something that you obtain and develop over time? b) Now read what other people have answered. How do these answers differ from what you have written? Randy Total answers: 331 10:06 a.m. Good question, Peg! I think, identity is however a person chooses to define him-/herself. I guess all I’m wondering about is if someone’s identity is something they have at one moment in their life and maintain or is it something that evolves over time? Julie Total answers: 89 11:59 a.m. I have asked myself this question so often! I was adopted as an infant. I don’t know if I had another name before or not and I’ve always known myself as Julie. I’ve always felt my identity as just what it is: the daughter of my parents. I feel that nature plus nurture plus life experience equals identity. It’s both something you’re born with and something you acquire. It evolves. Old parts of it fall away and new parts form. Maybe it is different for everyone. Rick Total answers: 152 2:09 p.m. Dear all, I think our experiences do contribute to who we are. We can choose our actions, which influence our character. We choose which goals we want to pursue. We’re influenced by the people around us – family, friends, teachers, spouses, our own children, etc. All of that contributes to who we are and who we’ll become. I believe you have to be very mature to stand for what you are and to like yourself. Your identity is just you, in every way. The way you are, you think, you live, you relate, you feel. Millie Total answers: 214 3:13 p.m. Hi Peggy, I decided that nobody has just one identity and it does not make sense to try and define it. To your co-workers you are someone, to your spouse you are someone else. When you are with your parents, you try to act the way they raised you. When you are around friends, you might want to prove that you are your own person by doing something that your parents would find very uncharacteristic of you. All the people around you can define who they think you are, they can give you an identity. But I believe it is impossible to give yourself an identity because you cannot decide when you are being the “real” you. 1 Nur zu Prüfzwecken – Eigentum des Verlags öbv

4 Adolescence 21 Teenagers behaving badly – How parents see it Read through the text below, highlight the important passages and then fill in the grid with arguments for both sides. When children become teenagers, they want to break away from their parents because they think that they need to be independent. This situation may be exciting for teenagers and also worrying, but this time is at least as confusing for them as it is for their parents. At times parents have the feeling that their son or daughter has changed so much that they fear they cannot communicate with their children any more. What worries parents most is the fact that many teenagers start hiding their private lives from them. Instead of talking about their school life or about their friends, teenagers start making up stories or do not even speak to them at all. One of the reasons might be that teenagers need to try out things which their parents would never allow them to do. Such risky behaviour can lead to enormous problems even though in most cases nothing really worrying happens. It may be that parents are so suspicious of their teenage children because they remember what they did when they were the same age. As teenagers see themselves as responsible adults, they cannot understand that their parents want to interfere. What follows are endless arguments about rules and the right behaviour, sometimes ending in fierce discussions and disrespectful behaviour on both sides. So, what is the best advice for parents of teenagers? The best way to deal with “problem” children is probably to relax and to wait until things have changed. Most teenagers do become responsible adults sooner or later, in spite of their parents’ attempt to educate them. Just give them time to find their own identity.
