4. Are Teenagers a Problem?
5. What is a Teenager?
A. Officially, a teenager is anyone aged from 13 to 19
inclusively, but most people would probably think first of the younger age group and
exclude 18 and 19-year-olds. After all, once you reach 18 you can vote, get married
without your parents’ permission, and join the army. On the other hand, children are
growing up and developing more quickly, and these days 11 and 12-year-olds would like to
include themselves in the ‘teenager’ group.
B. According to ‘the older generation’, teenagers are lazy,
they wear ridiculous clothes, and are appallingly rude to their betters and elders; they
find it impossible to be polite, helpful, constructive, caring or hard-working. What’s
more, they spend all their time listening to awful music and watching unsuitable films.
C. Teenagers are human so, of course, they have problems. It is
a difficult time for them because it is a period of transformation. It isn’t quite as
bad as a chrysalis changing into a butterfly, but it may seem like that. It isn’t easy
to grow up, and the dramatic physical and emotional changes are often confusing and
worrying.
D. Typical American teenagers are in fact very ordinary. They
think their teachers make them work too hard; they love their parents, but are sure they
don’t understand anything; and their friendships are the most important things in their
lives. Some of them do have a lot of money to spend, but usually they have earned it
themselves.
