Teenagers should be allowed to choose their own clothes.
该允许我自己做决定吗?
很多青少年都有自己的业余爱好。
但有时候这些爱好会阻碍他们的学业，
父母可能会担心他们在校的学业成绩。
青少年通常认为，应该允许他们尽可能多地实践自己的爱好。
你同意吗？
刘宇是来自山东的一位15岁男孩，他是一个赛跑明星。
他是校队队员，一直希望长大后能成为一名职业跑步运动员。
然而，他的父母不允许他花太多时间训练。
“我们当然希望看到他实现自己的梦想。”
刘先生说，“我们也知道他多么喜欢跑步。
我和妻子也曾经支持他的每一场比赛。 我们并不反对跑步！
但是我们觉得儿子必须要考虑其他能干的工作。
他现在长大了，所以他一定要考虑好，万一成不了职业跑步运动员，那怎么办？”
刘雨并不认同他们的想法。
“哦，我觉得应该允许我自己做决定，”他说。
“我父母总是教育我在学校努力学习，考上大学是多么多么的重要。
我能理解这一点，但对于跑步，我也是很认真对待的。

这是唯一我特别想做的事情。”
刘宇的父母认为刘宇晚上应该用功学习，
因此他们不允许他晚上出去练习跑步。
“也许他会认为我们太过严格或不公平，”刘先生说。
“但我们认为我们这么做是正确的。要成为一名职业运动明星很难。
所以他必须在自己的功课上多花些时间。”
但刘宇还是不同意。
我知道我父母关心我。
他们总是说如果我不成功怎么办。
可我一定会成功！ 我跑得很快！
我觉得应该允许我自己做出这样的选择。
只有这样，我才有机会实现自己的梦想。
Should I be allowed to make my own decisions?
Many teenagers have hobbies.
But sometimes these can get in the way of their schoolwork,
and parents might worry about their 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 boy from Shandong, is a running star.
He is on his school team and has always wanted to be a professional runner when he grows up.
However, his parents won’t allow him to train so much.
“Of course we want to see him achieve his dreams,” says Mr. Liu.
“And we know how much he loves running.
My wife and I have supported every one of his races.
We have nothing against running!
But we think our son needs to think about other possible jobs.
He’s getting older now, so he needs to think about what will happen if he doesn’t end up as a

professional runner.”
Liu Yu doesn’t really agree.
“Well, I think I should be allowed to decide for myself,” he says.
“My parents have always taught me how important it is to work hard at school and enter
university.
I understand this, but I’m serious about running.
It’s the only thing I’ve ever wanted to do.”
His parents believe that Liu Yu should study hard in the evenings,
so they don’t allow him to practice running at night.
“Maybe he thinks it’s too strict or unfair,” says Mrs. Liu.
“But we think we’re doing the right thing.
He needs to spend more time on his homework,
because it is difficult to become a professional sports star.”
But Liu Yu still disagrees.
“I know my parents care about me.
They always talk about what will happen if I don’t succeed.
But I will! I’m a quick runner!
I think I should be allowed to make this choice myself.
Only then will I have a chance to achieve my dream.”
