Last week, I had my birthday party, it was my Adult Ceremony¹. Unlike² the birthday party I had before, this time, my mother treated it as an important meeting, she invited many of my friends, she wanted to give me a big surprise and an unforgettable³ birthday. In China, when the children are 18, it means⁴ they have grown up and been adults. They can make their own decisions, their parents can’t treat them as kids any more. My mother gave me a present, it was a computer, I was so happy, she said that since I had been 18, I should be mature⁵, I should think twice before action. I was so moved, at that moment, I felt it was so hard for my mother to raise me up, I would never let her down. My Adult Ceremony is sweet, I will never forget it.

上周，我度过了我的生日，那是我的成人礼。不像之前我过的生日派对，这次，我的妈妈把它看着很重要，她邀请了我很多的朋友，她想要给我一个大大的惊喜和一次难忘的生日。在中国，当孩子长到18岁的时候，这意味着他们已经长大成人。他们可以自己做决定，父母再也不能把他们当做孩子看待了。我的妈妈给我买了一份礼物，那是一台电脑，我很开心，她说既然我已经十八岁了，就要成熟点，凡事要三思而后行。我很感动，在那一刻，我知道我的妈妈把我养大成人是多么不容易啊，我不会让她失望的。我的成人礼很甜蜜，我永远也不会忘记。
