A
Coming-of-age Ceremonies (成人礼)
Life is full of important moments. Entering the adult stage is an important step in everyone’s life.
In China, young people have their coming-of-age ceremony mostly at school. They wear traditional Chinese clothing, waiting for their parents to put a hat on their head or stick a hairpin (发针) in their hair. This comes from an old tradition. In ancient China, boys who reached 20 and girls who reached 15 would have capping or hair-pinning ceremonies (冠礼或笄礼).
In the United States, turning 16 is a big deal, because most teenagers get their driving licenses (驾照) at 16. Girls have “sweet 16” birthday parties to celebrate their coming of age when they turn 16. They wear fancy (精美的) clothes and have a special dance with their fathers.
In Japan, Coming of Age Day is a national holiday that takes place on the second Monday in January. People who are 20 years old will be officially adults on this day. Girls do their hair in fancy styles and put on kimonos (和服). Boys wear smart suits.
In Germany, the coming-of-age ceremony is called “Jugendfeier”—a youth celebration. During this ceremony, a teacher gives a speech to young adults, talking about values such as respecting others and being responsible (负责任的).

One night, Mary and her family were sleeping in their home. Their dog Snow was sleeping next to Mary. It was quiet at 5:36 a.m. Mary always put a cup of water next to her bed, so that if she got thirsty during the night, she didn’t have to walk all the way to the kitchen.

Lily, a 15yearold girl, lived in a small village. She was clever and curious but often forgot to use polite words like “please”, “thank you” and “sorry”. She didn’t think they mattered much.
One sunny afternoon, Lily went out to check out the woods near her home. As she walked, she came across a beautiful garden (花园) hidden behind a tall, closed door. The garden was filled with blooming (盛开的) flowers and singing birds. Lily pushed the door, but it wouldn’t move. She saw a note stuck to the door: “Say the magic words to enter.”
Lily thought hard. “Open sesame (芝麻) ” she guessed, but nothing happened. She tried waving her hands and saying other words, but the door stayed closed. Finally, she stamped her foot and sat down disappointedly.
Just then, an elderly gardener appeared. “What’s the matter, little one ” he asked with a gentle (温柔的) smile.
“The door won’t open. It says I need magic words, but I don’t know what they are,” she said angrily.
The gardener smiled. “Magic words aren’t magic—they’re words that show kindness and respect.”
Lily looked confused. “What kind of words ”
“Try asking politely,” the gardener advised.
Feeling surprised, Lily stood up and said, “Could you please open the door ”
To her amazement, the door opened. When she stepped inside, Lily was enchanted by the beauty of the garden. The gardener handed her a flower and said, “Remember to always say ‘please’ when you ask, ‘thank you’ when you get, and ‘sorry’ when you make a mistake (错误). These magic words will open more doors than you can imagine.”
From that day on, Lily never forgot the power of polite words. She used them often, and soon, everyone in the village noticed her kindness and looked up to her for it.
