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.
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 pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told to do
things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.
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.

日常生活类阅读

日常生活类阅读的概念：

日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作，生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时，最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容，时间和地点。

日常生活类阅读题答题技巧：

【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小，追根溯源，探索各项风俗的历史渊源，内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主，如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松，试题做起来比较顺手，但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神，就会丢分。　　
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率，建议同学们做好以下几点：　　
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现，越是容易的试题，同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢？因为在这种情况下，同学们极易产生麻痹思想，认为题目好做，就不引起高度重视，于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点，设计陷阱题。所以，无论试题难易与否，我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易，不欣喜；试题难，不悲观。　　
2、根据前面讲到的方法，认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。　　
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义，确定多义词或短语在文中的意思，确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象，或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子，切不可望文生义。　　
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提，以具体事实为依据进行推理，做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接，只要弄清事实，即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
