Are you worried about finding a good job or even any job? Nervous about paying for college? Afraid that a parent may get laid off? (out of work)

If so，you are not along．A Teens Health Survey found that most teens worry about the economy．The good news is， teens also seem realistic about the future and aren’t overly stressed out(过度紧张) about the current financial situation．And most are willing to face bravely to the tough economic times by finding a positive side to use less and save more．Some are even able to find a positive side to what’s going on，like Sasha，18 who said，“I think that it will help prepare us to be more responsible with money in the future．”

A Spanish company is building the first ever space hotel．It plans to open to the public in 2012．During their stay，guests will be able to see the sun rise 15 times a day．They can travel around the world every 80 minutes．They will have to wear special suits so they can crawl (匍匐爬行)。The suits will allow them to stick to walls like Spiderman．

The hotel will travel at 30，000km per hour，450km above the Earth．It has space to hold 4 guests and two astronaut-pilots．To get to the hotel，guests will have to take a rocket and travel for a day and a half．

Of course，it will cost a lot of money to make the trip．A three-night stay at the hotel costs about 3 million Euros（30 million yuan）．Still，many people are interested in the idea．At least 43 people have already booked their trips．
