turn18.我简直等不及想要到18岁了。其中一个原因是虽然我一毕业就工作了,但是我依然不能在下一届大选中投票。为什么?因为我依然不满18岁。但是我认为如果--个人已经工作并且交税了,那他应该对政府在支配税收方面有-定的话语权。我也一直在学习驾驶，并且我会在18岁当天就去考驾照。1Mymumworriesaboutmebeingbehind

understandthatdrivingacaralsomeanstakingresponsibilityformylifeandthelivesofotherpeople.妈妈十分担心我开车,作为一名救护车司机，她目睹过太多涉及青少年的车祸,她认为考驾照的法定年龄应该推迟到21岁。但是我觉得自己已经足够成熟，知道开车也意味着要对自己和他人的生命负责。2Icelebratedmy18thbirthdayjustbeforeIwenttouniversity.

上大学前我刚满18岁。我曾经期待马上会有不一样的感觉，就好像自己关闭了童年的大门，踏进一个全新的成人世界。但是事实并非如此。第二天我醒来时，仍然有需要遵守的规则，需要参加的课程。事实上,这种变化比我想象的更微小，更平缓。相比自己之前那个自私的青少年角色，我已经开始更多地关注别人，并且去.培养更强烈的社会责任感。2Togiveanexample,Iwillbesigninganorgandonationagreement

withoutaskingmyparents(althoughIknewtheywouldapprove).

Ofcourse,Iwouldliketohavemorefreedomwithmoneyandno

don'thaveasteadyincome,sogettingacreditcardmighttempt

metospendmoremoneythanIhave!比如说,明天这个时候我将会签署器官捐赠意向书。这对我来说是一个重大的决定，做出这个决定我并未征求父母的意见(虽然我知道他们会同意的)。满18岁后，社会对待我的方式也改变了。有家银行给我打电话让我办理信用卡的时候，我非常惊讶。虽然我想在花钱方面更为自由，而且毫无疑问我将在未来的某个时间获得-张信用卡，但是我现在还没有稳定的收入，所以现在办理的话可能会让我透支!3
