　　 The Gen­90s are coming!

　　Wearing earphones, using complicated Net language and constantly text­messaging friends, the Gen­90s following the Gen­80s begin to make their world debut(亮相)．

　　Each generation or age group has its own symbols and lifestyle. Read on and judge yourselves if you fit the Gen­90s profile.

　　Earphones

　　These little devices seem to grow on the heads of the Gen­90s. They might give these young people a plugged­in, cool and perhaps self­indulgent look. Of course, life is not always music to the ears.

　　Martian Language

　　They have created their own code­like online language. It's a mixture of English, Japanese and Chinese that perhaps only Martians can understand.

　　This is an imaginative generation, though they need to be careful to keep it out of their term papers.

　　Self­portrait

　　Saying "cheese" to their own digital cameras is common for this generation. A little bit of narcissism(自恋)never hurts anyone. It helps them reflect a little on their own lives. But be aware of the risks of posting private photos online.

　　Text­messaging

　　They can type as fast as they can speak. This is a generation that respects efficiency. Nevertheless, oral communication is important and will never go out of style.
