Today, online shopping is extremely popular among teenagers. This trend is not only convenient but also exciting for many young people.
One of the reasons why teenagers prefer online shopping is the wide variety of choices. They can easily browse through hundreds of websites to find the latest fashion trends or the coolest gadgets. Online stores often offer discounts and promotions, which attract young shoppers who are always looking for a good deal.
Another unique aspect of online shopping for teenagers is the influence of social media. Many teenagers follow fashion influencers and celebrities on platforms like Instagram or TikTok. When they see their favorite influencers wearing certain brands, they want to buy the same items. This has made online shopping a social activity on social sites where teens discuss and share their shopping experiences with their friends.
However, there are also some concerns. Teenagers may spend too much time shopping online or waste money on things they don't really need. Despite these challenges, online shopping continues to grow in popularity among teenagers, shaping the way they shop in the modern world.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions.
Jessii, a popular YouTuber has some advice for teenagers who dream of becoming famous on YouTube. She believes that popularity comes from being genuine rather than trying to impress others. Jessii encourages beginners to be themselves and create content they truly enjoy. When she first started making videos, she felt self-conscious and tried too hard to act in ways that people would like. Over time, however, she became more confident and started showing her real personality, which helped her connect better with viewers.
Jessii also believes that creators should build their channels around topics they are truly passionate about rather than simply following trends. In her opinion, viewers can easily recognize when someone is forcing content just to become popular. She says that people are more likely to succeed when they focus on creating videos that inspire others and reflect their genuine interests.
Before starting a YouTube channel, creators should also think carefully about privacy and safety. They do not need to reveal their real names or share where they live. For example, DanTDM, a famous 26-year-old English YouTuber, began his career by playing Minecraft and telling stories about the game's characters without showing his face. Some creators even turn off comments to avoid negative messages from online "haters".
Today, many YouTube stars have gone far beyond the platform itself. Some have written books, appeared on television, and travelled around the world performing live shows. In 2017, DanTDM toured America, Australia, and the UK, and tickets sold out within minutes with almost no advertising except YouTube. His videos have been viewed nearly 11 billion times, far more than the audiences of major TV programs such as Idols or even the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

Today, many YouTube stars have gone far beyond the platform itself. Some have written books, appeared on television, and travelled around the world performing live shows. In 2017, DanTDM toured America, Australia, and the UK, and tickets sold out within minutes with almost no advertising except YouTube. His videos have been viewed nearly 11 billion times, far more than the audiences of major TV programs such as Idols or even the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
