Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.
Famous families often appear in magazines and on social media every week, attending film openings or enjoying holidays in beautiful places. Some famous children have thousands of followers online before they can even speak. But what is life really like for the children of famous parents?
Mia Rivera, the daughter of a well-known actor, once spoke about growing up with photographers following her everywhere. For Mia, it was upsetting when strangers laughed at her or made unkind comments, even though this did not happen very often. She felt even more upset when journalists believed they had the right to know everything about her life, even after she had politely asked them to leave her alone. Most teenagers would not enjoy having such a public life.
A recent study has shown that children of famous parents can enjoy certain advantages. Top universities sometimes offer them places even when their grades are not excellent, and well-known designers often give them free clothes. However, these children also face a lot of pressure. People often expect them to be extremely talented and attractive, just like their parents, and some are unkind when the children do not meet these expectations. If these children did not have famous parents, they would probably never receive this kind of attention. Most of them are simply ordinary young people trying to understand who they are, so perhaps the one thing they need most is to be told they do not have to be exactly like their parents.
If they could choose, many children of famous parents might prefer to avoid public attention completely. Others decide to use their family's connections and try to become successful entertainers themselves.
Mia chose the second path. In 2014, she decided to become a singer and later joined a well-known record company. By 2016, she was one of the youngest artists on the label. Even though she has had success, some people say it is only because of her family's name and not because of her own talent. Mia has faced many unkind comments, but she believes that real success only comes through hard work, and that eventually, people will recognise her for who she truly is.
Why did Mia feel particularly upset with reporters?
What is one benefit that children of famous parents enjoy?
In the third paragraph, the writer suggests that famous children _____.
Why do some people speak badly about Mia's music career?
What is the writer trying to do in this passage?
