1
Parents and teachers always say that teenagers are
‘couch potatoes’ and spend all their time in front
of stupid TV programmes. But is it true that young
people have ‘square eyes’? Do they really watch a lot
of TV?

2
The results of a recent survey show that people in
Britain typically watch twenty-seven and a half hours
of TV every week – almost four hours a day! But
there is some surprising news – young people don’t
watch as much TV as adults. For example, middle-
aged adults (aged forty-five to sixty-five) watch about
five hours a day. But young people aged twelve to 4
seventeen only watch about two and a half hours Teenagers today don’t often sit with their families

dance?

Dancing in the UK
Many of us love dancing or watching dancing.
But why do you think we do it? It’s strange when
you think about it. When we dance, we don’t
go anywhere and we don’t make anything,
so what’s the reason for it?
Today in the UK dance is very popular. About
5 million people go to dance classes every week.
There are many styles but the most popular are
street-dancing, ceroc, ballet and salsa.

Street-dancing has got many styles including

breaking, hip-hop and popping. It’s popular with
young people and you have to be very flexible. Some
people say we do this kind of dance to show our
friends how strong and skilful we are.
Ceroc is a simple version of swing, salsa and jive. You
can do ceroc to fast or slow music. It is very popular
with middle-aged people because dancing is a good
way to keep fit.
Ballet is popular all over the world. There are many
spins and jumps in ballet. It’s very difficult and you
must do a lot of training to be good at it. Ballet
usually tells stories and people think it’s very beautiful.
Salsa is from Cuba. The word ‘salsa’ is Spanish for
hot and spicy sauce. Salsa dancers have got a lot of
passion and energy. People usually dance salsa to GLOSSaRY
fast and fun music. One reason we do this dance is to attractive (adj) good-looking

skilful (adj) good at doing something
So there are many reasons why we dance. Whatever spicy (adj) a strong, pleasant taste
