Read the passage and choose one correct answer for each question.

My name’s Mandi. Three months ago, I went to disco where I met a boy called

Tom. I guessed he was older than me, but I liked him and thought it didn’t

matter. We danced a couple of times, then we chatted. He said he was 18, then asked

how old I was. I told him I was 16. I thought that if I told him my real age, he

wouldn’t want to know me, as I’m only 13.

After the dicso we arranged to meet the following weekend. The next Saturday

we went for a burger and had a real laugh. Afterwards he walked me to my street

and kissed me goodnight. Things went really well. We see each other a couple of

times a week, but I’ve had to lie to my parents about where I’m going and who with.

I’ve always got on with them, but I know if they found out how Tom was they’d

stop me seeing him.

Now I really don’t know what to do. I can’t go on lying to my parents every

time I go out, and Tom keeps asking why he can’t come around to my house. I’m

really worried and I need some advice.
