A

Born in the 2000s, what do you think of your generation (一代人) ? Young, creative, connected, global, smart, maybe good-looking? But what do other people think about your generation?

Some adults worry that you’re more interested in the phone than in the world around you. They see you as the “face-down generation” and wonder how you will deal with school, friends, and family. Are today’s teenagers too busy texting and taking selfies (自拍) to become successful in real life, as they would say?

Other adults worry that today’s youth are spoiled (宠坏的) and don’t want to face the challenges of adult life. Many children born in the 1990s and 2000s were raised by “helicopter parents” who were always there to do everything for them. So today’s young people seem to prefer to live like teenagers even when they are in their 20s
