青春最好时

Many young girls like to copy grownups. They wear high heels， paint their faces， and dress in tight clothes. They are willing to let tight clothes suffocate1 their breathing， highheels burden2 their walking， and make-up damage3 their natural beauty. They believe that by accepting such burdens， they can be the equal to adults and view their peers4 who do not wish to behave in the same way as childish.

In fact， to be seen as a grown-up one needs more than just to display a special appearance；often personal qualities are needed， such as maturity5 of thoughts—which can only be formed over time.

Youth is truly a very precious gift—and remember—we are only young but once. While we still have youth with us， why should we limit our youth by trying to act much older than we really are？

Chances， once lost， may never come back again—and youth surely will not. Once youth is over， real life brings responsibilities6， making our life less free and joyful as we are today. As our present tasks in life are light and our hearts are still full of youthful spirits and energy， we should enjoy and cherish our youth to the fullest before it withers7 away.

許多年轻的姑娘们喜欢模仿大人。她们蹬上高跟鞋，化上妆容，将自己塞进痩窄的衣裙。她们心甘情愿因为紧绷的服饰导致呼吸不畅，高高的后跟使得行走困难，纷繁的化妆品遮掩天生的美丽。她们坚信，这些负担能够换来成年人的那份成熟，并理直气壮地将其他不愿意如此的同龄人视为“幼稚”。

事实上，长大所需要的远不止一副成熟的皮囊。许多个人品质必不可少，像思想的成熟。这些唯有时间能够打磨。

青春是一份无价的礼物。且记住，易逝的青春没有回头路。当我们还能够把握这最好的时刻，为何要限制它、摆脱它，努力将自己变得比实际年龄更大呢？

机不可失，青春亦然。一旦青春逝去，现实的责任会替代彼时的自由与无忧。趁现在生活的重担还未落下，我们的内心依旧澎湃，充满热情，尽情地享受、珍惜它吧。因为青春总会枯萎，韶华必然逝去。

推荐语：

每一个孩子都渴望长大。我们偷穿大人的衣服，模仿大人说话的方式，幻想着终有一天，可以摆脱那些令人头疼的考试，不再起早贪黑地去上学，成熟地安排自己的一切。可是长大后，我们又开始怀念儿时的肆意与自由，想要做回那个天马行空的孩子。青春只有一次，它最易消逝，却也最为热烈。好好珍惜，尽情享受吧。
