But we have our own levels of stress. Many students in their high school years start their first job, so now you have school in the mornings, followed by responsibilities at home and work. By the time you are done there, you are too tired to finish your school work, but you stay up late to finish and return to school feeling sleepy the next day. What good is that?Lefs not forget about peer （同龄人）pressure. All high school students meet with it at some point in their lives. High school can be a place where students are made fun of, singled out and pointed at.My point is: it is a whole lot more stressful to be a student in high school than adults believe. Our stress may not include paying bills, but Tm sure if the adults in our lives could go back to school today, they would be surprised at how much it has changed.I admit that there aren't good moments and memories while we are students. My mum always tells me to enjoy it while I can. I know that the world outside of school is often hard and that the responsibilities are serious. Thafs exactly why I know that the focus I give to my future is important in leading me to a career that will allow me to contribute （贡献）to society.12.

What is the text mainly about?A. The roles of the youth in today 9s society.B. The stressful life of high school students.C. The way to deal with stress of school life.D.
