Speech on youth lacks survival skills
Answers
Answer:
A group of vocational school students aged between 18 and 19 were supposed to go on a five-day tour of villages in Ningbo, Zhejiang province, but many of them didn't know how to do the laundry or cook, or even take a bus. Today's youths lack life skills because of the exam-oriented education system and overindulgent parents, says an article on youth.cn. Excerpts:
One of the 22 students who went on the field trip took six dresses with her because she didn't have a clue about how to do the laundry. And less than half of them knew something about cooking. The youths' shocking lack of life skills may not seem to be a serious problem now because their parents are more than willing to help them. But it could become one once they start working or get married.
