What events make a person an adult?

From childhood to adulthood, various changes have occurred, including the young bodies, the imagine mind, and the view about the world. It is really difficult to figure out the exact event that suddenly transforms us from an innocent child to an adult with so many thoughts. Each year, there is a ceremony in our city to legislate a young at 18 years old an adult. However, a ceremony does not necessarily mean that a person has grown up, and in my eyes, three main issues indicate that people have grown up: when one’s mind matures, when one learns to take care of others and when one’s body changes.

Small children live a light-hearted life. They need not worry about the outside world but enjoy an inside one full of their imaginations. Their young mind are cherished and protected. In the passage from childhood to adulthood, they gradually change their minds and learn how to judge the world and how to think critically. For example, young children often ask his or her (their)parents, is the person in the fairy tale(is) a bad one or a good one. However, these will never (be )ask(ed) these questions as they turn to be adults since .they know clearly it is hard to regard a person simply bad or good.

Another indicator of the adulthood is to take care of others, the younger as well as the elder. Children are taken care of by others, whose mistakes will always be forgiven. As an adult, he or she should learn how to take care of others rather than be looked after. Usually, when a teenager prepares a supper carefully for his or her parent’s birthday, we will often say that he or she has grown up. The reason is clear and meaningful: to considerate for others and care for others’ feelings are the rudimentary yet critical requirements for an adult.

Surely, another obvious element that means one’s transformation is the maturity of the body. As adolescents grow taller, their shoulders broaden and their bodies change, they are becoming adults in the physical sense.

The changes from a child to an adult means a lot to everyone in the world. Usually, the three issues mentioned above are the main indictors. While our bodies change to be adults physically, our mind expands another phase, which is amusing and requires  us to care for others and think more critically.

不错.
