Modern teenagers are greatly different from the previous generations. They are more independent, have another interests and more spacious mind, but they are far more lazy. Most of these distinctions are caused by fast technical progress. Quite every teenager has a computer, a mobile phone and the internet access. On the one hand it is good, because they can find any information, it can be useful or not; any book or film can be found very easy and fast too. Moreover, the internet helps in studying and people from different countries or cities can communicate despite the distention between them. One the other hand, teenagers become more and more lazy, because they would better stay at home in front of computer than go somewhere. Also the big amount of information they have every day makes them indifferent to amazing things. The teenagers are not fascinated with the beauty of nature or art so much, because they have already seen it. The internet can show everythig from Van Gogh paintings to the polar light, so young people don’t need to travel or visit museums to see something unusual. As a result it is very difficult to surprise teenager, because the computer screen has already show and explain everything.
