  "The majority of young people _don't have  a_  good  (writing)
  style."

  "They don't learn _many_ interesting things" --  I  think  you
  should be more specific here. Why don't they?  Maybe,  because
  TV  and  PC  offer  a  lot  of  useless  (and  often  harmful)
  entartainment; and browsing web or watching a TV show  imposes
  less work on our brains  and  is  therefore  easier  and  more
  pleasing and indulging to our worst desires?

  "They don't have _a_ good vocabulary" or, not to  repreat  the
  structure of the forst sentence, -- "Their vocabulary is poor"

  And you haven't provided any causes  of  such  a  desparate  a
  situation!

thanks ,
I don't understand the first sentence may you write it again ?
I can say instead sentence two  :
They don't improve  their language.
second possibility :
The children don't enter the magic world of the books.
