TASK 1. Read the text and choose the correct answer.
More than 80% of American high school students work at part-time jobs in the evenings, on
weekends or in summer. These part-time jobs bring teenagers great advantages.
One of the benefits of the work is the students can learn the skills that will be useful for the rest
of their lives. When they work, they have to manage both the job and schoolwork. To be able to
do so, they must be very organized and able to keep a sensible schedule. They also learn to
cope with the job stress apart from the stress of the schoolwork. Some of the most stressful jobs
include teaching, nursing, and police work. These skills help prepare teenagers for their later
careers. High school students who work are more likely to succeed as adults than people who
enter the job market at a later age with no work experience.
Teenagers want a lot of expensive things: clothes, mp3 players, trips with their friends, etc. Not
all parents can afford them. And even if they can, the teens might not really appreciate that

true and are less likely to spend it foolishly.
