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 money because they did not earn it. When teenagers make money for themselves, they are less likely to spend it foolishly.
1. Which of the following is a good title for the passage?
A. Disadvantages of part-time jobs. B. Advantages of part-time jobs.
C. Part-time jobs cause stress. D. Part-time jobs for high school students 2. According to the passage, what is NOT an effect of part-time jobs?
A. Teenagers become organized. B. Teenagers become stressed.
C. Teenagers may have successful careers. D. Teenagers spend money less foolishly.
