Today ?s young people in their twenties-or “20-
somethings”, are often called “millennials(千禧一代)”.
Theygrew up around the time of the millennium in the year 2000.
Like other generation, millennials share some things in common.
Millennials are staying in school longer and getting married
later. Some millennials lack full-time jobs, and many are living at
home or getting financial help from their parents.
Are these adults? The law says yes. In the United States and
many other countries, 18 is the “age of majority”. This means
people are considered old enough to be held legally responsible
for their actions. But societies usually have their own definitions
of adulthood, their own expectations for what being an adult
means.
Some researchers say today ?s 20-somethings are having a
“delayed adulthood”. In other words, they are still like
teenagers, more mature than adolescents but not quite full
adults.
Cherrssa Jessen, who is 27, might agree. She grew up in New
Jersey, not far from New York City. She says she
Room 1
The celebrity footwear section is probably the most popular
in the entire
museum. Started in the 1950s there is a wide variety of shoes
and boots belonging to everyone from queens and presidents to
pop stars and actors! Most visitors find the celebrities ? choice of
footwear extremely interesting.
Room 3
A s well as shoes and boots the museum also exhibits shoe
shaped objects. The variety is unbelievable. For example, there is
a metal lamp that resembles a pair of shoes, and Greek wine
bottles that look like legs!
Room 2
Most of our visitors are amazed and shocked by the
collection of “special purpose” shoes on exhibition here at the
Museum of Footwear. For example, there are Chinese shoes made
of silk that were worn by women to tie their feet firmly to prevent
them from growing too much.
The Footwear Library
People come from all over the world to study in our excellent
footwear library. Designers and researchers come here to look up
information on anything and everything related to the subject of
footwear.
expected to get married right after college and to find a job
near her parents. Instead, she joined an international exchange
program called Up with People.
Her job also took her to different countries. After more than
a year of traveling, she was not sure what to do. So she went back
to New Jersey and moved in with her parents. However, she was
not ready to settle down, so she moved to Denver, Colorado in
the western United States, with a friend. After almost a year, they
decided they wanted to live closer to the ocean. So they moved
across the country again, this time to Florida.
Now she is back to Washington. She is looking for a job and
living temporarily with friends. She is not sure yet how long she
will stay.
“Eventually I would like to have a family, and a more stable
professional job, but it?s really hard when there?s so much out
there in the world to see and to experience.”
Cheryssa says all her exploring has helped her to understand
herself better and to know what makes her happy.

A bargain is something offered at a low and advantageous
price. A more recent definition is: a bargain is a dirty trick to force
money out of the pockets of silly and innocent people.
The cost of producing a new-for example-toothpaste would
make 80p the proper price for it, so we will market it at £1.20. It
is not a bad toothpaste, and as people like to try new things, it
will sell well to start with; but the attraction of novelty soon fades,
so sales will fall. When that happens we will reduce the price to
£1.15. And we will turn it into a bargain by printing 5p OFF all
over it.
Sometimes it is not 5p OFF but 1p OFF. What breathtaking
rudeness to advertise 1p OFF your soap or washing powder or
whatever! Even the poorest ole-age pensioner ought to regard
this as an insult(侮辱), but he doesn?t. A bargain must not be
missed. People say one has to have washing powder (or whatever)
and one might as well buy it a penny cheaper.
The real danger starts when unnecessary things
become …bargain?. Many people just cannot resist bargains.
Provided they think they are getting a bargain, the will buy
clothes they will never wear or furniture they have no space for.
Once I heard of a man who bought an electric saw as a bargain
and cut off two of his fingers the next day. But he had no regrets:
the saw had been truly cheap.
Quite a few people actually believe that they make money
on such bargains. A lady once told me: “I?ve had a lucky day
today. I bought a dress for £120, reduced from £400; and I
bought a beautiful Persian carpet for £600, reduced from £900.”
It will never occur to her that she has actually wasted £720. She
feels as though she had made £580. She also feels, I am sure,
that if she had more time for shopping, she could make a living
out of it.
Some people buy in large quantities because it is cheaper.
Once a couple bought enough sugar for their lifetime and
