阅读材料

How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again? Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.

有多少次听到孩子们希望自己长大了，老人们希望自己再次年轻？每个年龄都有它的快乐和痛苦，最幸福的人是享受每个年龄给他的东西，而不把时间浪费在无用的遗憾中。

Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child—things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his parents, he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong.

童年是一个几乎没有责任的时代。如果一个孩子有好父母，无论他做什么，他都会得到喂养、照顾和爱。他不可能在一生中再次得到这么多而不做任何回报。此外，生活总是向孩子呈现新事物——这些事物对老年人来说已经失去了兴趣，因为它们太常见了。但是一个孩子有他的父母，他不能那么自由地做他想做的事；他不断地被告知不要做任何事情，或者因为他做错了什么而受到惩罚。

When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.from zshunj_cn

当年轻人开始自己谋生时，他再也不能指望别人为他的食物、衣服和房间买单了，但如果他想过上舒适的生活，就必须工作。如果他像小时候那样把大部分时间都花在玩耍上，他会挨饿的。如果他像过去那样违反社会法律，他可能会进监狱。然而，如果他努力工作，远离麻烦，身体健康，他就可以为自己在社会中建立自己的地位而感到极大的幸福。
