Such bad books shouldn't be allowed to sell at any bookstore． They are h to children．
What do you do during your free time？Travel？Play with friends？Well，some American teenagers over the age of 14may get a part﹣time job．Their part﹣time jobs can be taking care of children，waiting tables or even working at a movie theater．
But why do teens do this？Some want to have extra（额外的） money．Others want to start saving money for college because some US parents may not pay for their children's tuition（学费）．Some teens might want to save money for something big，like buying a car．
Many teens choose to get part﹣time jobs during the summer holiday．That's because they are busy studying in the school year．
Having a part﹣time job is great for any US teen．Thet get an idea of what the real working world is like．And it gives them skills and experience．That will help them get a full﹣time（全职的） job later in life．
