38.1. Many people believe that going to the theatre is the best way of spending free time. The aim of the project I am currently working on is to find out more information about it. As part of my project, I have found and analyzed some data on how often young people go to the theatre in Zetland.
According to the data, the adolescents in Zetland go to the theatre quite rarely, 52% of the respondents said they do it once a year. However, the second popular answer is going to watch performances once a month, 27% of the teenagers have said about it. Also, 13% of the respondents have been to the theatre two or three times at all.
It is worth mentioning that there are 5% of the adolescents who have never visited theatres, and their number is two times more than those who go to the theatre two times in one season. Unfortunatelly, acting is not interesting for the teenagers in Zetland.
The data indicate that modern teenagers in Zetland tend to go to the theatre rarely. Probably they prefer surfing the internet or chatting with friends. The great problem that can arise with this fact is that younger generation do not spend their time on cultural enrichment. One solution to this problem is to organize discussing clubs for the adolescents there they can meet directors and theatre actors, talk about performances and hold training courses and workshops.
In conclusion, I firmly believe that going to the theatre is important for young people in Zetland. I think, it is a great pleasure admiring masterpieces on the stage. (269 words)
38.2. Students go to school and come back home by the same way every day. The purpose of the project I am currently working on is to find out more about it. As part of my project, I have found and analyzed some data on how students usually get to school in Zetland.
According to the data, the teenagers in Zetland have quite a wide range of means of transport when it comes to the way to school. The vast majority of the respondents prefer being driven to school by their parents, 43% of the respondents have said about it. Going by bus as well as on foot are also quite popular with the adolescents in Zetland (17% and 14% respectively), whereas bicycles or scooters appear to be used not very often.
It is worth mentioning that 5% of the teenagers change different means of transport to get to school. Moreover, their number is less than those who are driven to school by their parents. I think it is a good oportunity for families to discuss the day while driving.
One problem that can arise with getting to school is that there are some outlying areas where it may be difficult to go to school from. One solution to this problem is to provide the carriage of the students by school buses. It may solve variety of problems for students and their parents.
In conclusion, I firmly believe that coming to school on time is very important. It may become an essential habit for their future career. (256 words)
