新目标英语九年级unit3reading原文
Should I be allowed to make my own decisions?
Many teenagers have hobbies. But sometimes these hobbies can get in the way of schoolwork, and parents might worry about their child’s success at school. Teenagers often think they should be allowed to practice their hobbies as much as they want. Do you agree?
Liu Yu, a fifteen-year-old from Shandong, is a running star. He is in his school running team, and has always wanted to be a professional athlete. However, his parents won’t allow him to train as much as he would like to. “Of course we want to see Liu Yu achieve his dreams,” says Mr Liu, “and we know how much he loves running. That’s great, and my wife and I have watched him in every one of his races. We have nothing against running! But we do think about that our son needs to be realistic. Now he is getting older, and he needs to think about what will happen if he doesn’t become a professional runner in the end.”
Liu Yu doesn’t really agree. “Well, I think I should be allowed to make decisions for myself,” he says. “My parents have always taught me the importance of working hard and not just to do what I enjoy. I understand this. But I’m serious about running. Being a professional runner is the only thing I have ever wanted to do.”
Mr and Mrs Liu believe that Liu Yu should study hard in the evenings, and so they don’t allow him to practice running on school nights. “I know this might seem strict,” says Mrs Liu, “but we think we’re doing the right thing. He has to understand that very few people can become professional athletes. It’s a very difficult dream to achieve. We don’t allow him to practice every day because we think he needs to spend time on his homework.”
But Liu Yu still doesn’t agree. “I know my parents care about me,” he says. “But they are always talking about what will happen if I don’t succeed. But I will succeed! I think I should be allowed to make this decision for myself. Only then will I have a chance of achieving my dream.”

很多青少年都有业余爱好.但是有时候这些爱好可能会妨碍到学习,而且父母们也会担心孩子们在学校的成绩,青少年们觉得应该尽可能按照他们自己的意愿来锻炼他们的爱好.你赞同吗?
来自山东的一名15岁男孩刘宇,他是一名田径运动员,他现在在校田径队里,而且一直想成为一名专业的田径运动员,然而他的父母却不许他按照自己的意愿去更多的训练,刘先生说;“当然 我们想看见刘宇实现他的梦想,而且我们也清楚他有多么热爱赛跑.这样很好,我和妻子看过他的每一场比赛.我们是在没理由反对赛跑!但我们的却觉得我们的儿子需要面对现实才行,既然他现在在逐渐长大,那么他就需要考虑到如果最终他没有成为一名专业的田径运动员那么会怎么办?
刘宇不是很赞同,他说;应该由我来为自己做决定”我的父母总是在告知我刻苦学习的重要性,而不是告诉我去做我喜欢的事情.我很理解这一点.但是我热衷于赛跑,作一名专业的田径运动员是我直想做的事.
刘夫妇坚信刘宇应该每晚都努力学习,因此他们不许他在上学时候的晚上练习赛跑.刘宇说;“我知道这样做似乎有些严厉”但我们觉得我们所做的一切都是正确的,他必须要知道没有多少人会最终成为专业的专业的运动员,这是难以去实现的梦想,我们不许他每天锻炼是因为我们觉得他应该将更多的时间用在学习上.
但是刘宇仍然不同意,他说;“我知道我父母关心我”但他们总是在研究如果我不成功会怎样,但是我一定要成功!我认为应该允许我自己来做出决定,只有那样我才能有机会来实现我的梦想.
