Task 1 & 2. (P2 & P3)
Imagine you have been writing about the life of you chosen celebrity for a magazine. The editor of the magazine has now asked you to describe the effect that five life factors have had on two life stages your chosen person has experienced.
You will already have found out about some of the experiences your celebrity has had during two stages of their life. Your two stages are most likely to be chosen from childhood, adolescence or adulthood.
You now have to imagine how the following factors may have influenced the individual:
• the person’s genetic background and early biological experiences
• the person’s general environment during these stages
• the social and economic circumstances of the individual’s family or carers
• the person’s lifestyle or the lifestyle of their family
• the impact of major life events.
Task 3 (P4, P5, M2, M3, D2)
In your role as a reporter for a magazine, you now need to write about the life of your chosen celebrity as they grow older. You must imagine some of the physical and psychological changes that could affect the person in the future. You will also need to explain two theories of ageing such as disengagement and activity theory.
