Childhood（童年）is a time when there are few duties．A child is fed，looked after and loved by all grown—ups like parents or grandparents． 2 However, for older people they often lose their interest in those things．
On the other hand（另一方面），a child may also have some pains with him． 3 He is often told not to do something．He will certainly be shouted at for doing something wrong．
When a child grows up, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, clothes, room and many other things． 4 If he still spends most of his time playing as he used to in childhood, he will go hungry．If, however, he works hard and has no trouble, he can build up his own position in society with great happiness．

When the young man starts to make his own living he becomes，free from the discipline （約束） of schools and parents．But at the same time he is made to accept duties．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 pitying about in the way that he used to as a child，he will go hungry．And if he breaks the law of the society as he used to break the laws of his parents，he may go m prison （監獄）．If，however，he works hard，keeps out of trouble，and in good health，he can have the great happiness of seeing himself do better in his job and building up his own place in the society．Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be in，but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy．Old age should come with wisdom and the ability to help others．They can have the joy of seeing their children doing better in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them and，perhaps，best of all，they can，if their life has been a useful one，feel the happiness of having come through the fight of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest，leaving others to go on with the fight．
