A Letter to the Editor(编辑)

  13 October

  Dear Editor,

  I am writing to ask what has happened to our youth. They are not as polite, hardworking or clever as my generation. I'll give you an example.

  Last Friday, I got on the underground at 9:15 a. m..It was very busy so there were no free seats. There were some teenagers(青少年) sitting on the seats nearest me. I don't know why they were not at school. They were talking loudly and laughing. It was difficult to read my newspaper with all the noise. A heavily pregnant(怀孕) woman and her daughter got on at the next stop, with lots of shopping bags. I expected the teenagers to let them sit down. They slowly did so but gave me a rude look. I got off at the next stop and was glad that the teenagers didn't follow me.

  I worried about the future of our country. How could these young people become responsible(负责的) workers and parents? They sit around McDonald's after school instead of going to the library like I did at their age. Maybe they have too much money. Perhaps another reader can give us an idea about what to do with this “lost generation”(垮掉的一代).

  Franz Johnson.

Reply to Mr. Johnson's Letter

  20 October

  Dear Editor,

  I read Mr. Johnson's letter about the problems of today's youth with much interest. He described teenagers on a train not giving a seat to a pregnant woman and her daughter. I was the woman. We must have seen things differently. I found the teenagers helpful and kind. Did Mr. Johnson see the teenagers help me off the train? Did he see them carry my shopping bags to a taxi for me? Did he see them friendly to my daughter? Obviously(显然地) not.

  “Older” people often say today's youth isn't as good as their generation. Their parents said that about them. Mr. Johnson must accept that the world is changing and young people change with it. I find today's youth mostly kind and more fun than my generation.

  Perhaps Mr. Johnson should really try to get to know some young people before he calls them the “lost generation”.
