At the dentist's

Dentist: I'm very sorry, but I'm afraid you'll have to have the front tooth out. Has the other one been very troublesome?

P: Yes, for the last few weeks, but today the pain seems to be easier.

D: Does this tooth pain you when I touch it like that?

P: No, it doesn't.

D: Then you must have the bad tooth stopped. So the front tooth has to be pulled out and the back one stopped.

Lesson 14

Life of Youth in Ukraine

Youth is the future of our country.

Are all young people alike? Of course, not. But they have got similar problems.

They want to go their own way, have their own style of clothes, even their own language – youth slang.

They want to be independent from their parents and teachers. But they don’t know how to do that. Often parents are too busy earning money for bringing up and educating their children. They can’t give their children attention and understanding.

That’s why teenagers easily come under the influence of other people. They find idols among famous singers, sportsmen, actors and politicians. They try to copy them blindly from hairstyles and clothes to bad habits as smoking and even using drugs.

Young people are crazy about music. They organize their own fan clubs.

But a lot of them are talented, creative.

Young people dream of highly-paid jobs, of better life. They are in studying foreign languages and have excellent computer-operating skills.

Some of them are interested in politics.

Many youth clubs and organizations are founded which unite young people according to their interests.

Youth is really the future of our country.
