In the United States, 16, 18 and 21 are very important ages in a person's life. A person can do new things at each age to show that he or she is no longer a child. That means you are an adult.

After turning 16 in the United States, a person can be employed, get a driver's license, and leave home. Many high school students learn to drive and get part-time jobs soon after celebrating their 16th birthday.

To mark this special day, families with 15-year-old daughters have a celebration called a quinceanera (成人礼). The young woman and her family will have a big party to which many guests are invited.

In Japan, boys and girls are thought to be adults at the age of 20. At this age, they are allowed to vote and drink beer or wine.

Dear Kangkang,

I'm sorry to hear about your bad news. As your good friend, I hope you will get well soon. And now I want to tell you something about my habits.

 First, the Internet is not perfect. If you work on the Internet too long, it will make you have a headache and sore eyes. Second, in our daily life, I often use the Internet to study and listen to music. And I usually spend less than 1 hour on the Internet every day. Third, in my free time, I often play football with my friends. Playing football is my favorite hobby. I think it is an exciting sport. I can make friends and keep fit all the time.

If you have more good habits, I believe you will be a good middle school student.

Yours,

Li Ming
