real job.
”

meant the beginning of an_27_.

Piaget argued that once adolescents enter the world of work,

non- idealistic world and to press for reform in a
characteristically adolescent way. Piaget said:

True
adaptation to society comes_30_when the adolescent reformer
attempts to put his ideas to work.
”

likes to give up dreams. Perhaps, taken_31_out of context,
Piaget
’
s statement seems harsh. What he was_32_
，
however, is
the way reality can modify idealistic views. Some people refer
to such modification as maturity. Piaget argued that attaining
and accepting a vocation is one of the best ways to modify
idealized views and to mature.

As careers and vocations become less available during times of
_33_, adolescents may be especially hard hit. Such difficult
economic times may leave many adolescents_34_about their roles
in society. For this reason, community interventions and
government job programs that offer summer and vacation work are
not only economically_35_but also help to stimulate the
adolescent
’
s sense of worth.
