What is the Age of Majority
The age of majority is a legal term used to describe the age at which a minor (未成年人) is no longer considered such. Instead, for all intents and purposes, when a person passes this age, he or she is treated as an adult with adult responsibilities. At this age, the legal control of his or her parents or guardians ceases.
The age of majority means the moment when you turn 18, which is a milestone marking the start of adulthood.

1. Do you think the minimum age limits in the passage are sensible Why or why not
I think it’s sensible. For example, In China there are no laws restricting young people from buying cigarettes or alcohol. Many countries also have ratings on their movies because of adult material being portrayed. In order to improve our social system, I think it is necessary to set a minimum age.
2. What right are you most looking forward to having as an adult Why
I want to have the right to decide what I really like.
3. What do you think it means to be a responsible adult
It can be difficult to make the transition from childhood to becoming an adult. The most important thing is to live an adult lifestyle.
