People say that teenagers are no good. They make much noise in shops; they drive wildly up and down in the streets. And at times, some of these things are true. But there are also hard moments in the life of a teenager.
A teenager is neither a lovely child, nor a respectable grown-up person. The members of her family consider a teenager a source of trouble. She feels that she has grown up. But she is told that she is just a child and she knows nothing. She sees her elders doing what they like. When she wants to do what she likes, the elders tell her that she should do only what she is told to do. To be a teenager means to be everybody’s servant and nobody’s master. Elders in the family and in the neighbourhood order a teenager to run errands (跑腿) for them. If he refuses to carry out the orders of his elders, he will be punished. If he behaves like a child, he is told that he is grown up and that he should not be childish. If he hehaves like a grown-up man, he is told that he is disrespectful (失礼).
A teenager becomes a lonely creature in the family. Children enjoy all the love of elders in the family. The teenager gets no love and no respect. So she often runs away from home and finds some joy in the company of the girls of her age.
The trouble with teenagers is that they haven’t learnt to be controlled. There are too many rules and regulations for us to obey. It hasn’t yet occurred to us to run a zigzag (曲折) pattern. Although we teenagers have a miserable time with our family members and elders, we have a very good time with our friends and in schools and colleges. So we teenagers spend most of our good time and have fun with our friends and classmates rather than with parents.

    阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上（请注意问题后的词数要求）。
Americans think that travel is good for you; some even think it can help one of the country’s worst problems - crime.
Crime worries a lot of people. Every year, the number of crimes goes up and up. And many criminals are young. They often come from sad homes, with only one parent or no parents at all.
There are many young criminals in prison. But prison doesn’t change them. Six or seven in ten will go back to crime when they come out of prison.
One man, Bob Burton, thought of a new idea. In the old days, young men had to live a difficult life on the road. They learned to be strong and brave. So Bob Burton started “Vision Quest”.
He takes young criminals on a long, long journey with horses and wagons (马车), 3,000 miles through seven states. They are on the road for more than a year.
The young people on Vision Quest all have bad problems. Most of them have already spent time in prison. This is their last chance.
It’s hard work on the road. The work starts before the sun comes up. The boys and girls have to feed the horses. Some of them have never loved anyone before. But they can love their horse. Love can help them to lead a new life.
Not all the young people on Vision Quest will leave crime behind them. Three or four in ten will one day be in prison again. Bob Burton is right. Travel can be good for you. Even today, Americans still say, “Go west, young man.”
71. What’s the main idea of the passage? (No more than 10 words)
72. Why do so many young people become criminals? (No more than 10 words)
