Unit 1
Teenage life is full of adventures and challenges. Some teenagers like to do volunteer work, and others prefer extra-curricular movements such as organising debates, studying literature, dancing ballet and cleaning up the greenhouses. But more people sign up for advanced courses suitable for their taste. Actually, some teenagers feel confused in their youth, and their behaviours are sometimes confusing. They feel there is a generation gap between themselves and adults, so experts are trying to find a suitable solution.
