【解析】试题解析：本文大意：一个人会多久一次听孩子们希望他们是成人。老人们希望他们再年轻一次。每个年龄有它的乐趣和痛苦，最幸福的人总是喜欢每个年龄给他的没有在无用的忏悔上浪费时间的快乐。儿童时期是一个没有使生活更好的责任的时期。如果一个孩子有好的父母，他被抚养、照顾和爱，做可以做的事情。不可能在他的生命中曾经被给予那么多却没有做任何回报的事情。但是一个孩子有他的痛苦。他不能自由的做他希望做的事情。他被一遍又一遍地告诉 不能做某件事，或者因为他做错的事情被惩罚。 当一个年轻人开始谋生，他不能再期望别人为他的食物、衣服和房子付费，但如果他想生活得舒适他就得工作。如果他还像过去当孩子时那样把大把时间花在胡闹上，他会饿。如果他违反了社会的法律，就像他过去破坏家长的规定，他可能会进监狱。然而，如果他努力工作，远离麻烦，身体健康，他能在自己的社会位置上为自己建立很大的幸福。
