Food or friends? Lip salve (润唇膏) or iPod? What is the most important thing in the US teenagers’ lives today? Let’s take a look.
Some find that they can’t do without people.
“My biggest need is my friends. Without them, I wouldn’t do much,” said Adrian Fernandez, a 14-year-old boy.
With others, food always comes first.
“I do not think that I could live without chili con carne (辣子肉丁). I eat it every day. And if I didn’t have it, it’s all I would think about,” said Max Wu, an 8th-grade boy.
Sometimes, the things teenagers can’t do without are strange.
Take 14-year-old girl Hannah Sacchini for example. “I cannot live without lip salve, especially in winter,” said Hannah Sacchini. “I go mad if my lips get dry.”
Of course, today everybody uses mobile phones and computers. Some teens can’t live without these high-tech (高科技的) things.
Justin Beck, a 15-year-old boy, feels like this: “I would not be able to live without my iPod. I use it for so many different things. I always have it with me,” he said.
So, now we know the things US kids really must have. What about you and your classmates? What can’t you live without?

A 10-year-old boy decided to study judo (柔道), although he had lost his left arm in a car accident.
The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo teacher, Mr. Tanaka. The boy was doing well, but his teacher had taught him only one move in three months of training.
“Mr. Tanaka,” the boy finally asked, “shouldn’t I be learning more moves？”
“This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you’ll ever need to know,” his teacher replied.
Several months later, Mr. Tanaka took the boy to his first tournament (锦标赛). The boy won his first three matches, using his one move to win. The boy was now in the finals, and was amazed by his own success.
This time, his opponent (对手) was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. The referee (裁判) wanted to stop the match.
“No,” the
teacher insisted, “let him continue.” Soon, his opponent lowered his guard. At
that moment the boy used his move to pin (钉住) him. The
boy won the match an
d
became the champion.
On the way home, the boy and his teacher reviewed every match. Then the boy asked what was really in his mind.
“Mr. Tanaka, how did I win the tournament with only one move？”
