Teenagers lead an exciting life in high school,making friends and dreaming about the future.However,as all young people know①,teenagers have plenty of worries② too.
Do you know what British teenagers worry about most? A survey by the UK's Department of Health shows that the top worries are losing weight③ and fitting in④.Over 100,000 teenagers took part in the research.
Losing weight is a big concern⑤ among teenagers.This may be an effect of famous people with perfect bodies around them.
Adolescence is a physically and emotionally difficult time⑥.Teenagers want to feel good about their bodies.
It's also important for them to be accepted.Many teenagers were picked on⑦ in high school.“Who should I eat lunch with?” “Who should I hang out with⑧?” “Will I be accepted?” These questions are troubling many UK teenagers,according to the survey.
It's interesting to see that family background has an effect on⑨ teenagers' worries.Teenagers from low-income families worried more about losing weight and bullying(欺凌).Teenagers from higher income families were more likely to worry about fitting in and peer pressure⑩.
