New York is one of the most exciting cities in the world.

  You might want to do some shopping in New York. The Fifth Avenue is probably New York's most famous shopping street. But if you go,be prepared to "window shop" only. This is shopping for the rich. There are other less expensive shopping areas nearby,and you'll soon find famous stores such as Bloomingdale's,Macy's and FAO Schwartz. And if you've brought your rollerblades (滑板) ,then a visit to Central Park is a must. This is a large,open park right in the middle of Manhattan. But if you thought that people came here to relax,then you'd be wrong. Nobody sits in Central Park: they run,jog (慢跑) ,and most of all they rollerblade.

  When you leave New York,you might be tired,but the one thing you won't be is bored!

1. Is New York one of the most exciting cities in the world?

2. Where is for the rich to go shopping?

3. Is Macy's a shopping area or an amusement park?

4. Central Park is on the right of Manhattan,isn't it?

5. What do people often do in Central Park?

1. Yes,it is.

2. The Fifth Avenue.

 Who Influences Teenagers?

  "Teenager" means people from 13 to 19 years old. Although they're young,they have to make many important choices by themselves. They need to think about questions like these: Should I go to college? What kind of jobs do I want? However,other people also influence their choices. Who influences teenagers? Teenagers were asked this question and here's what they said.

  It depends on the kind of choices. When teenagers buy things,friends are the most important influence. This is especially true for clothes and music. TV shows,advertisements and parents also influence teenagers. In more serious things,parents are probably the most important influence. Some teenagers say it's best to regard both parents and friends as influences. James,a seventeen-year-old boy says he's just "a crazy man". He also says, "Parents are really important because they can tell you what's right and wrong."

  But teenagers also feel they need to make choices by themselves―to make their own mistakes. As one teenage girl said, "If our parents don't let us make our own choices,maybe in the future we won't know how to do it. " And they feel friends can also be a big help,and sometimes friends know more about their situation (處境) than their parents do.

  Do you depend on parents or others when you decide what to do and how to do it? Whoever you depend on,the correct choice is the most important. Your future is in your hand.

(   ) 1. People from 13 to 19 can be called teenagers.

(   ) 2. When teenagers buy clothes and music,friends are the most important influence.

(   ) 3. TV shows and advertisements can't influence teenagers.

(   ) 4. In more serious things,friends are probably the most important influence.

(   ) 5. Sometimes friends know more about teenagers' situation than their parents.
