Life can sometimes be difficult for teenagers.
有时,生活对青少年来说很困难。
Most, however, get through their teenage years with the help of their families and friends.
但很多人在青少年时期都得到了家人和朋友的帮助。
Du Fei and Wang Le are two typical teenagers. Du Fei is 15 years old. Like many teenagers, he has a few habits that are not so good for him.
杜飞和王乐是两个典型的青少年。杜飞15岁。和多数青少年一样,他有些不好的习惯。
For example, he listens to very loud music that is bad for his hearing.
例如,他听很吵闹的音乐,这对他的听觉不好。
On the other hand, he doesn't eat many snacks—he prefers his mother's home cooking.
另一方面,他不吃小吃—他更喜欢自己妈妈做的家常菜。
But in school he doesn't pay attention in class, and his parents always tell him to try harder.
但是在学校,他上课不专心,他的父母总告诉他要更加努力。
His parents and teachers want him to change his attitude and are happy to help him. They know it is never too late to change bad habits.
他的父母和老师希望他改变自己的态度并愿意帮助他。他们知道改变坏习惯永远都不迟。
Wang Le wants to do things that most teenagers do. For her, it's important to have friends, and to spend time with them.
王乐想要做些多数青少年做的事。对她来说,最重要的是朋友以及花时间和朋友在一起。
But perhaps she hangs out with them a little too much. Wang Le likes to eat junk food, and she would rather drink coffee and cola than water.
但是或许她和朋友出去玩的次数有点太多了。王乐喜欢吃垃圾食品,相比水,她更喜欢和咖啡和可乐。
Her parents have asked her to try to eat more healthily, but she doesn't like to.
她的父母要求她吃得更加健康,但是她不喜欢。
However, Wang Le's parents trust her because she tells them her problems. They know she always does her best at school, so they let her organize her own life.
然而,王乐的父母却信任她,因为她告诉了父母自己的问题。他们知道她在学校表现很好,所以他们让她安排自己的生活。
She is hardly ever stressed and she laughs a lot.
