<span>Now 18 is the crucial age.But what does becoming an adult mean?What rights do you get at 18 that you didn't have before? One of the most frequently pointed out ironies is that you can join the Army,Air Force or Navy at the age of 16(or 17 if you are a woman) but you are not entitled to vote.This privilege only comes at the age of 18.
Smoking,drinking and going to the pub is a complex piece of law.The familiar RU 18(are you 18?) sign can be seen in pubs.That means you have to be 18 before you can buy and drink alcohol in a bar.Between the ages of 14 and 16 you can go to a pub but you can only consume soft drinks.In Britain you must show your identity card.
The law states that children may work from the ages of 13 onwards provided that:
a.it is a part-time job
b.it doesn't take place in school hours
c.it doesn't involve lifting or carrying anything heavy.
Of course,most people start full-time employment at the age of 16 which is the school-leaving age.Nobody can leave school before their sixteenth birthday.
You can drive a car at the age of 17,a moped at 16 but you must wait until 21 to drive a bus or lorry.</span>

-Hello, Mike!
- Hi, Peter! Where are you going?
- I’m going to the park. My parents gave me a digital camera for my birthday. I want to take some pictures.
- Cool! It’s not easy to take a really good photo. But I think it’s very interesting!
- I agree. There’s much to learn about it for me. You know, I want to manage to take good photos of landscapes and people’s faces.
- That would be great. Good photo helps us to remember happy moments of our life and bad portraits always put in bad mood.
- Exactly! My sister is very pretty girl but she’s not photogenic so she doesn’t look good on photos and she’s always upset about it.
- You may read a lot about digital cameras in the internet. There are lots of useful information for beginners, including lessons and examples.
- You’re right. I’ve already looked through some. Now I want a little practice.
- You may take a picture of me, if you want. I can be your first experiment.
<span>- Really? Thank you! Let’s do it

</span><span>- Привет, Майк!
- Привет, Питер! Ты куда?
- Иду в парк. Мои родители подарили мне цифровой фотоаппарат на день рождения. Хочу сделать несколько фотографий.
- Круто! Это нелегко – сделать действительно хорошее фото. Но я думаю, это очень интересно!
- Согласен! Мне еще многому предстоит научиться. Знаешь, я хочу уметь делать красивые фото пейзажей и людей.
- Это будет здорово. Удачные фото помогают нам запомнить счастливые события жизни, а плохие портреты всегда портят настроение.
- Это точно! Моя сестра – очень симпатичная девушка, но не фотогеничная, и на фотографиях всегда плохо получается, и она всегда так расстраивается из-за этого.
- Ты можешь почитать про цифровые фотоаппараты в интернете. Там много полезной информации для новичков, включая уроки и примеры.
- Ты прав. Я уже бегло просмотрел некоторые. А теперь хочу немного попрактиковаться..
- Можешь сфотографировать меня, если хочешь. Могу быть твоим первым экспериментом.
- Правда? Спасибо! Давай сделаем это!</span>
