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, what he may do, It is __1__
improbable that he will ever again in his life be given
so much without having to do anything in turn. In addition, __2__
life is always presenting new things to the child—things
that have lost their interesting for older people because __3__
they are too well-known. A child finds pleasure in playing
in the rain, or in the snow.His first visit to the
seaside is a marvelous adventure. But a child has his pains:
He is not so free to do as he wishes as he thinks old
people do; he is continually being told not to do things, __4__
or being punished for that he has done wrong. __5__
His life is therefore not longer perfectly happy. __6__
When the young man starts to earn his own living, he
becomes free from the discipline of school and parents;
but at the same time he is forced to accept responsibilities.
He can not longer expect others to pay for his food, his
clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live
comfortable. If he spends most of his time playing about in __7__
the way that he used to as a child, he will suffer hungry. __8__
And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break
the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, therefore, __9__
he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health,
he can have the great happiness of seeing himself making __10__
steady progress in his job and of building up for himself
his own position in society.
