【题目】请阅读下面短文,并按照要求用英语写一篇 150 词左右的文章。

In China, Yang Zhiqiao is 77 and has retired. She does the Mickey Mouse costume in Luoyang, Henan Province to earn some pocket money from passers-by, which she saves for her son. “My son is 40 and is still single. I don’t want to be a burden to him. I want to help him financially so he can get a wife,” Yang says.

According to an unrelated news story, parents in a Beijing suburb are getting up at 5 am each day and standing in line for shuttle buses. The early birds have developed this habit not for themselves, but for their grown-up children, who work in downtown Beijing. The youngsters have to spend four or five hours each day commuting and their parents chip in插嘴by waiting in line for them so they can squeeze an extra half hour of sleep.

However, children in the US will leave their parents when they grow up. They want to find better jobs, so they usually live far away from their parents. They often write to their parents or call them. And they go to visit their parents during their holidays.

Parents will ask their children to do some work around their house. In many families children will get money for doing some housework so that they can learn to make money on their own. Parents usually let their children choose their own jobs. Americans think that for young people it is important to decide on their lives by themselves.
