Solutions Upper-Intermediate Workbook Key Unit 1

(Axel Boer) #1

S Yes, I think so.
T But teenagers do get leisure time as
well, don’t they?
S They do, but the problem is, teenagers
often have very little cash to spend.
So in the small amount of time that
they get for leisure, they usually
don’t have enough money to enjoy
themselves. As a result, they end up
getting bored in their free time!
T I see. It all sounds very depressing ...
S And finally, teenagers do not have
independence. For instance, if I want
to go and stay with a friend, I have
to ask permission first. Teenagers
have to live according to the rules
that are made by adults. That’s
why I firmly believe that a person’s
teenage years are more difficult than
other stages in life.
