The Pleasures and Pains of Childhood

　　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 improbable 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. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or in the snow. His first visit to the seaside is a marvelous adventure.

　　But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do as he wishes as he thinks older people are: he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong. His life is therefore not perfectly happy.

　　童年的快樂和痛苦

　　童年的時候你不需要履行什么責(zé)任，所以說你的生活不會很艱難。如果一個孩子有好的父母，那無論他做什么他都有的吃，會受到別人的愛護(hù)和照顧。很可能在他的生命中不會再有這樣的機(jī)會：從別人那兒得到那么多而不需要付出任何回報。除此之外，生活總是給孩子們展現(xiàn)一些新的東西。而大人對這些東西已經(jīng)失去了興趣。因?yàn)樗麄儗�這些東西全部了解。小孩在雨雪中玩的時候都能夠找到快樂，到海濱的第一次旅游也會是一次奇妙的經(jīng)歷。

　　但是小孩子也有他們的痛苦：他們不能按照他們希望的方式去做事。不斷會有人告訴他哪些事情不能做，他們做錯了事就會受到懲罰。因此他的生活也不完全是快樂的。

　　本文重點(diǎn)等級 ★★

　　本文的話題較為抽象，考慮到成人考生的水平，在寫作時，一般說來在論述時要結(jié)合自己的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，采用舉例子的方式來擴(kuò)展段落。
