A great way for teens(青少年) to cool off during the summer is at water parks. If you live near a water park, you might think about getting a season pass. This way you can go as often as you like.

Check to see if there are any water parks around you. Many are indoor facilities(设施), so even if it isn’t warm enough where you live to swim outdoors, you can enjoy swimming in a temperature controlled area.

The prices are usually good. For example, one ticket to Water World, a water park, is only ＄5.
