2026年暑假生活学期总复习八年级英语通用版第22页答案
Ⅳ. Reading comprehension.(阅读理解。)
Everyone's journey of growing up is different, but there are some common things that we all experience. For most of us, growing up means learning to be independent, making our own decisions and taking responsibility for our actions.
My name is Lucy. When I was 10 years old, I used to be afraid of being alone. I always wanted my parents to be with me. But one day, my parents had to go out for a whole day, and I had to stay at home by myself. At first, I was very scared. But I told myself that I had to be brave. I finished my homework, cooked myself a simple meal and cleaned the room. When my parents came back, they were very proud of me. That day, I felt that I had grown up a little.
As I grew older, I faced more challenges. I had to make decisions by myself, such as choosing my own hobbies and making friends. I also learned to take responsibility for my mistakes. Once, I broke my friend's pencil and I didn't want to admit it. But my mother told me that being honest is important. I apologized to my friend and bought her a new pencil. That experience taught me to be responsible.
Growing up is not just about getting older. It's about becoming a better person. It's about learning from our mistakes, being kind to others and never giving up. I am still growing up, and I look forward to all the new experiences that are waiting for me.
