‘A helping hand’
Influence on lifestyle
Lack of rest
The most popular activity
Possible dangers
Important inventions
1. Recent surveys show that many teenagers consider computers the most important invention of the 20th century. The popularity of the television is failing while the popularity of computers is rising among teenagers throughout the world. Other popular inventions are such things as cell phones and personal digital assistants. They are far more important to teens than to parents.
2. Actually, the survey results reflect the changing lifestyle. Today’s teenagers use different services available on the computer and the Internet. They send messages instead of using the telephone. Watching a movie on television has been replaced with playing a DVD on the computer. Teens even do their homework and school projects on the computer.
3. Everyone talks about video games and how popular they are, and some young people spend a lot of time playing them. Almost a third of 13-year-olds in the UK play video games every day. Seven per cent of them spend 30 hours a week or more giving their thumbs a workout on video games. Young people who play for more than 30 hours a week are becoming video game addicts. They are addicted to playing computer games. They begin to lose their friends, and they also truant from school and start to get bad marks for their schoolwork.
4. Modern technologies have become an integral part of teenagers’ life. For example, the Internet. It is a great source of information, they use it for communicating with friends, homework and entertainment. Many teenagers know much about computers but their lack of experience can make them forget about the internet dangers and even become victims of on-line crime. Of course, the Internet is a great tool for helping teens with their homework. They can find information on any topic. There are even websites where they can get help with their homework.
5. But often the opportunity to get information from the net leads to cheating when pupils just copy someone’s papers. Another danger is lack of sleep. Teenagers often get as little as four hours of sleep because they play games or surf the net. As a result, they are not able to work well at school.

When I was younger I lived in Kenya because my dad was sent there with his work. During our first summer, my granny visited us from England, so we went on a holiday trip to the national safari park. As we were driving along we saw a car stuck in the mud, so my dad got out to help them. You’re not mean to do this because of all the animals wandering around. Suddenly, a baboon came over to our car and my granny opened the window and started to feed it with bananas! Within a few seconds there were baboons all around us – baboons jumping all over the top of the car! It was scary ‘cos they’ve got big teeth and were trying to get inside the car! Luckily, my dad turned round and saw the trouble we were in. He crept over to us and crawled into the driver’s seat – commando-style, on his belly! It was such a relief to drive on but after about a minute we saw a lion. My dad was so scared that he had to stop the car for a minute. All he could think of was how close he’d come being face to face with a lion!
I still love animals, but I think that a safari trip made me realize that animals may look cute, but sometimes they really can be dangerous.
