Текст № 1 тext «youth’s problems»
Exercise 1. Read the text and say what the main youth’s problems are.
Young people naturally have their problems. That is a feature common to all epochs. Today it is fashionable to speak about teenage problems. A few years ago alcohol, crime, drug abuse were more problems for adults than for young people. But now, according to official reports, violence, smoking, drugs and alcohol abuse are more and more associated with youngsters.
One of the most vital issues today is drug and alcohol abuse among teenagers. Social consequences of drugs abuse are very serious; they lead to the degradation of a person, as drug addicts fall out of social life; they also rarely live till the age of 30. Almost half of teenagers have an experience with drugs and alcohol under the age of 16 – the statistics on teenagers taking drugs is absolutely horrifying. Growing alcohol and drug abuse in many countries contributes to high mortality and the increased risk of transmitting HIV among young people. A lot of teens who have drug or alcohol addiction almost never believe that they are dependent. In some schools, students joined anti-drug programs. Young people with drug or drinking problems can also call special telephone numbers to ask for help.
Aside from drug or alcohol abuse, another critical problem is smoking among teenagers. Tobacco use is one of the chief causes of death in the world. The highest rates of smoking among young people are in developing countries, and the number of young women taking up cigarettes is unfortunately growing. The higher level of tobacco use among young people suggests that there is a need for specific policies and programs for teenagers to counteract marketing strategies that target youth by associating tobacco use with independence and glamour.
Juvenile delinquency adds much to the general picture of youth’s problems. The Government surveys show that every fifth teenager who was arrested for criminal actions, was younger than 14 and couldn't be sent to prison. Why do young people commit crimes? Among the main causes specialists point out poor family relationships, bad neighborhood conditions, and drug addiction.
It is obvious that youth’s problems must be solved in order not to loose the nation’s future. But solving them should be carried out by all social institutions and organizations, most important of which are family and school.
