Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions from 26 to 31.

Groups can form around things people have in common. So jocks, goths, skaters, and even the math club are naturally drawn together because they share similar interests. The people in these groups feel they have a place where they are welcome and supported, and where they can stay true to themselves, quirks and all.

Some groups of friends can be pretty flexible and welcome people to join in. But

others are more restricted, though. People in these groups make it clear that not just anyone can be part of their crowd. Such a group is sometimes called a clique.

Unlike regular groups of friends, people in cliques do everything together. They sit together in class, go to the mall together after school – and they only do stuff with other clique members or people they decide are ‘cool’.

Although people might think it’s better to belong to a clique than to be excluded, many times people in cliques end up dealing with lots of pressures and rules. They soon start to worry about whether they’ll continue to be popular or whether they’ll be dropped. After a while, they may begin to realize that real friends wouldn’t be so bossy or demanding.

(Adapted from SGK Bloggers-Smart 8)

Câu 31:
