3 Describing differences
Teenagers differ from adults in the way they handle finances. Teenagers are likely
to spend all their money as soon as they receive it whereas most adults try to save
some of their money for future expenses. There is also a difference in what adults
and adolescents spend their money on. Whereas older people are more likely to
spend their money on the things they need - clothes, food, housing - young people
tend to spend it on the things they want - music, movies, going out.

C Historically, there has been a gender bias in schools. Even after boys and girls
began to take the same classes, boys enjoyed advantages. Biological difference
cannot explain the gap in achievement between boys and girls, so scholars are
looking for other explanations. The gender gap in achievement is getting smaller.
There are several possible explanations for why girls are beginning to do better than
boys in school. Today educators are becoming more concerned about boys' academic
achievement
Summarizing
C Historically, boys have performed better academically, but that gap has begun to
close.
There are many factors that contribute to achievement gaps, including gender bias in
the classroom, peer pressure, and self-esteem.
