英语翻译
How often one hears children wishing they were grownups and old people wishing they were young again.Each age has its pleasures and its pains,and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.
Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities (责任) to make life difficult.If a child has good parents,he is fed,looked after and loved,whatever he may do.It is improbable that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return.In addition,life is always presenting (给予) new things to the child---things that have lost their interest for older people because 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 wonderful adventure.But a child has his pains:he is not so free to do as he wishes as he thinks older people are; he is continually being told not to do things,or being punished for what he has done wrong.His life is therefore not perfectly happy.
When the young man starts to earn his own living ,he becomes free from the discipline of his School and his parents; but at the same time he is forced to accept responsibilities.He can no longer expect others to pay for his food,his clothing and his room,but has to work if he wants to live comfortably.If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child,he will go hungry.And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents,he may go to prison,if,however ,he works hard,keeps out of trouble and has good health,he can have the great happiness of seeing himself make steady progress in his job and of building up for himself his own position in the society.
Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be; but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy.With old age should come wisdom and the ability to help others with advice wisely given.The old can have the joy of seeing their children making progress in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them; and,perhaps best of all,they can,if their life has been a useful one,feel the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when.they can lie back and rest,leaving others to continue the fight.

有多少次听到孩子们希望长大!又有多少次听到老人们希望年轻!每一个年龄段的人都有自己的快乐与痛苦.而最幸福的人就是那个永远享受每一段年龄带给她的一切,而不是将时间浪费在后悔当中.
童年,没有责任,生活并不困难.如果有了好父母,不管他做什么,都给他吃、照看他、爱他.在他余下的生命中,不可能再有人对他这样好,而又无需回报.
同样的,生命又总是给予孩子一些新的东西,这些东西所有的大人们却都已熟知且厌倦.孩子在雨中或雪中嬉闹寻找快乐.对他来说,第一次去海边可是一次了不得的历险记.
但是,孩子也有孩子的苦恼.在他看来,大人们想做什么就做什么,可他不能.不断地有人告诫他这个该做,不断地有人因为他做错了而惩罚他.由此看来,他的生活也并不完全幸福.
当年轻人开始自食其力时,没有了学校和家长的束缚,却有了不可推卸的责任.再也不可能像过去一样有人给他吃、给他穿、给他住.他不得不为了生活的舒适而努力工作.
如果他依旧像孩堤一样,整天就知道玩,会受饥饿之苦.如果他像不听父母话一样触犯了法律,可能还要受牢狱之苦.相反,如果他努力工作、远离麻烦、身体健康强壮,看见自己不断地进步,社会地位不断提高,心中就充满了幸福.

人老了,总是被认为是最可怕的.但却不用为此感到不幸.帮助他人的智慧和能力是随之赐予的.看看儿女承欢膝下,可能最好的莫过于经历生命中诸多磨难,仍然幸福的活着,直到有一天躺下休憩,以待后来人继续生命的抗争.
