It’s Not Easy Being a Kid!
Hi!I’m a Peter.I’m in the second grade.
I have one thing to say:IT’S NOT EASY BEING A KID!
Being a kid might look like fun,but sometimes it’s not.
Yesterday,I was playing outside with my friend.
I was having a really good time.
Then suddenly,my mother said,”Peter,it’s time to come inside ’s getting dark.”
When you.rsquo;re an adult,no one can tell you what to do or when to do it.
When you’re a kid,you have to get up early in the morning and go to school,you have to study math,English,science,and history.
After school,you have to do your homework.
When you’re an adult,you do not have to go to school and you never have homework.
When you’re a kid,there are many things you can’t watch.
Last Saturday,there was a scary movie on TV.
It looked really exciting.
But my father would not let me said, “You’re too young for this movie,Peter.”
When you’re an adult,you can watch anything you want.
When you’re a kid,the older kids sometimes pick on you.
When I was walking home from school on Monday,Tom and Steve bothered me.
Steve took my schoolbag and put it in a tree.
It made me very you’re an adult,no one can pick on you.
When you’re a kid,you cannot go anywhere by yourself.
Last Friday,I wanted to buy a birthday gift for my friend I had to wait for my mom to return home.
When I want to go somewhere,I have to ride my bike or ask my mom for a you’re an adult, you can drive a car wherever you want.
When you’re kid,you have to go to bed early.
On school nights,my mom makes me go to bed at 9:00.
But I do have a mom and dad who love me,which is really I guess I like being a kid, even though IT’S NOT EASY BEING A KID!
作为一个孩子是不容易的!
嗨!我是彼得。我二年级了。
我有一件事情要说：作为一个孩子是不容易的!
作为一个孩子也许看起来好像很有趣，但是有时候不是那样。
昨天，我正在外面和我的朋友玩。
我正玩得开心。
这个时候，突然，我的妈妈说：“彼得，现在到时间进来了。天黑了。”当你是一个成年人的时候，没有人会告诉你做什么或者什么时候坐。
当你是一个孩子的时候，你必须要在早上早起，然后上学去。在学校，你必须学习数学，英语，自然和历史。
放学后，你必须做你的家庭作业。
当你是一个成年人的时候，你不需要上学，而且从不没有家庭作业。
当你是一个孩子的时候，有很多事物你不能看。
上个星期六，电视上演了一部恐怖电影。
看起来很刺激。
但是我的父亲不让我看。他说：“对于这部电影来说你太年轻，彼得。”
当你是一个成年人的时候，你可以看任何你想看的。
当你是一个孩子的时候，年长的孩子有时候会作弄你。
星期一，当我从学校回家的时候，汤姆和斯蒂文骚扰我。
斯蒂文拿走我的书包放在了一棵树上。
让我发疯了。当你是一个成年人的时候，没有人会作弄你。
当你是一个孩子的时候，你不能自己去任何地方。
上星期五，我想要去为我的朋友约翰买一份生日礼物。
但是我必须等我的妈妈回家。
当我想要去某个地方时候，我必须骑我的自行车
或者请我的妈妈开车。当你是一个成年人的时候，你能开车到你想到的任何地方。
当你是一个孩子的时候，你必须早点上床睡觉。
在上学的夜晚，我的妈妈让我9点睡觉。
但是我有爱我的爸爸妈妈，这真是太好了。因此我猜我喜欢作为一个孩子，
即使作为一个孩子是不容易的!
be concentrating on sth
专心致志
Yi Qiu was known as the most famous expert at chess throughout the land.
奕秋是全国最有名的棋手。
Once he gave lessons on chess to two men.
有一次，他教两个人下棋。
One of them was completely absorbed in his teaching, listening attentively to Yi Qiu while the other, who seemed to be listening, had his mind on something else.
一个认真的听课，完全沉浸于其中。 另一个尽管看上去也在听课，其实在想其它的事情。
In fact, he was having a fancy that a swan was flying towards him and he had in his hands a bow and an arrow, ready to shoot.
他幻想有只天鹅正朝他飞来，而他拿着弓和箭准备把它射下来。
As a result, though he was having the same lesson together with the first man, yet he turned out a much inferior student.
所以，虽然他和另一个人上的是同样的课，他学得可差多了。
If one is not concentrating on his study, no skills will be learned.
不专心致志的学习，什么技能都学不会。
