For many American teenagers, having a part-time job is an important part of growing up. A part-time job can teach teenagers important skills like responsibility (责任), independence (独立),teamwork and leadership.

Young people can expand (扩大) their social circles beyond their classmates by making friends with co-workers. And many teenagers find that earning their own money gives them a sense of pride and freedom.

The US Department of Labor allows teenagers to apply for jobs at the age of 14. Popular part-time jobs include working in ice cream stores, coffee shops, and clothing stores. During the school year, teenagers may go to work a few times a week after their classes get out, then work for longer on the weekends.

In the summer, top jobs for teens include working at camps, swimming pools and amusement parks. These jobs are great for young people who want to be active and have fun while making money.

A favorite job for many teens is babysitting (临时替人看小孩), and they can start before 14 if the parents agree. After the children are sleeping and before the parents come home, babysitters have lots of freedom. As long as they stay in the house and make sure the kids are okay, babysitters can do their homework, enjoy a snack, watch TV, or talk on the phone with friends.

It can be stressful to balance school, homework, and a part-time job. Still, many American teenagers value their work experience and the skills they gain on the job.

56. The author thinks a part-time job can teach teenagers many skills except _____.

A. responsibility   B. Teamwork     C. leadership     D. organization

Playgrounds give kids fresh air, friends, and exercise. However, each year, more than 200,000 kids go to hospital because they are hurt in one way or another when playing on the playground. So what can we do to improve the situation (状况)?

We should make sure the playground is safe for the children. It should be soft and thick enough, so when the children fall, they won’t hurt too much. Things like water, rocks or broken glass might hurt the kids. Cleaners should check the playground from time to time and clear away these dangerous things. In fact, children themselves also need to help keep the playground clean and safe. That means each time after playing they should pick up the rubbish. If someone finds there is something wrong with the equipment (设施), he should report to the keeper of the playground, so people will come to fix it.

Teaching kids how to play safely is also very important. Kids should know the rules of the playground, so they won’t get hurt easily. For example, they should never push when others swing. If someone is going to jump off some equipment, he should first look down to make sure no other kids are in the way. Of course, wearing right clothes may also help to keep safe.

In short, our kids can both enjoy themselves and be safe if we are working together to improve the situation.
