Read the following passage. For each statement from 11 to 15, write Darren, Jackson or Ae Ri.

Darren from New York City

I used to listen to country music. My father has a huge collection, and when I was young, I listened to his records all the time. Now I find most of them boring. I prefer music with a strong beat and I’m a rapper now. I’m a big fan of hip hop and I rap everywhere, at school, on the bus or even in the shower. My favorite time is when I go to hip hop battles with my friends and perform with DJs. It’s out of this world!

Jackson from Australia

I play bass guitar in a band and we practice every day in my friend’s garage. I enjoy listening to different music genres, from pop to RnB. I learnt the accoustic guitar at school. I can compose music but I don’t write the lyrics for the songs. Doing gigs with the band is my biggest thrill. Next month, we’re going to a studio to record some of our songs. We’re very excited about it.

Ae Ri from Korea

I love pop from the bottom of my heart. It really brings out so many great emotions in me. It’s also a way for me to relax. Going to pop concerts is incredibly entertaining. You can see people singing along, cheering loud or dancing. And at the end of the show, you can rush to the singer and ask for an autograph. At the moment, I’m taking singing lessons, and I hope I can perform on stage one day.
