V. Read the passage. Circle A, B or C to answer each question.
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 know its true and are less likely
to spend it foolishly.

A. Why teenagers should work
B. Advantages and disadvantages of part-time jobs
C. Part-time jobs cause stress
26. According to the passage, what is NOT an effect of part-time jobs?
A. Teenagers become organized.
B. Teenagers become stressed.
C. Teenagers are more likely to have successful careers.

A. fight against
B. deal with
C. suffer from

A. spend foolishly

C. appreciate money
