Questão 2768292

Instruction: answer questions 38 to 40 based on the following text.

This is the statement of a 17-year-old girl when interviewed by the author of

“Humans of NY”:

01“I haven’t been seventeen for very long. But I will say, aside from the schoolwork, it’s really a

02 wonderful time. I have the freedom to go wherever I want to go, but not a ton of responsibility.

03 I can walk out of my house with my dog, and go for this walk, and not worry about much more

04 than getting back home. I do need to finish a 650-word personal statement for my college

05 applications. It’s not an easy thing -- to describe yourself in 650 words. I don’t really know who

06 I am yet, though I am growing more comfortable with not knowing. At least that means other

07 people aren’t defining me either. When I look at older people I admire, to be honest, I do define

08 them a bit -- by their careers, and accomplishments. I guess it’s just the easiest way to

09 understand them, because I haven’t experienced much of being older. When you’re seventeen

10 you haven’t done much. But there’s also freedom to that. Because there’s not much to define

11 you by, other than the moment.”
