Text 10
M: As we all know, childhood is very important in our lifetime. Childhood is a special time. And if a child has good parents, he can have a wonderful childhood. In his family, parents take good care of him no matter what he may do(无论他做什么,家长都会很好地照顾他). But as time passes by, he is continually being told not to do this, not to do that, or being punished for what he has done wrong. When he starts to make his own living, he becomes free from parents. However, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes and his room. He has to work hard to live comfortably. Only in this way can he have the great happiness of building up his own position in society.
