討論青年人的生活變化
Mark: Hey, Mike. Heres a question. Do you think teenagers these days, have a better life than, say we did, when we were teenagers?
Mike: Well, its, thats a debate thats been going on since the days of Socrates and Plato, I think, but again, and probably like Socrates, has said himself, You know kids today, are a lot different than they were when we were younger, thats for sure. Whether its better or not, ah, I personally think, we had it better because we werent stuck behind a computer or behind a TV set all day, I think we tended to do things more outside, but I think whether youre a teenager now or then, probably the same kind of issues went on in your head.
Mark: Yeah, thats the way I feel about it, actually.
Mike: Think so.
Mark: Well, these kind of, these kind of debates or these kid of issues, I feel like there is no better or worse, its just different, (Yeah) you know.
Mike: How do you think its different?
Mark: Well, in obvious ways, like the technology now. (Sure) Like I can remember the first, my first microwave (Right) and my families first VCR, (Sure) and those were, you know, pretty exciting moments, yeah, absolutely.
Mike: Hows about going to the library to have to get research.
Mark: Yeah! Thats interesting, but, uh, people dont do that much anymore and I dont even realize that, but, yeah, um, so the technology is definitely better now (Sure. For sure.) but its more addictive, I mean kids, start, like you said, they dont play outside (Yeah) they just play video games all day (Yeah) and you know, I wasnt allowed to stay inside so much when I was a kid.
Mike: Same here. Same here. I was sort of forced to go outside, but also, although, I guess you could make an argument and say the kids do kind of play with each other when they get on those, the internet gaming sites, and theres a whole group of them from Morocco to Mexico to Canada to the St tates, all playing online, of course, they never see each other but theyre all trying (more international) to kill each other.
