During puberty (青春期), some boys might become worried about their bodies after seeing what some of their friends look like. For example, lots of boys pay attention to their muscles (肌肉). You may have already noticed some boys starting to get chest muscles. Others may have broad shoulders. Other boys might still be slim and small.

Remember that puberty happens on its own schedule (时间表), so don’t be worried if you are a little slower to develop muscles. Eating nutritious(营养的) food and being active (like riding your bike, swimming and playing sports) will help you become strong and fit. In time, you’ll reach puberty, and then you can start building your muscles, too.

If you decide to try lifting weights, first let your doctor know what you want to do. He or she may tell you to hold off on weightlifting(举重) for a bit or give you some advice on how to start. If your doctor tells you not to do any weightlifting, you can try some other ways to work out. Resistance bands (阻力带) are a great way to help build your strength without putting too much strain on your muscles. If your doctor agrees with weightlifting, here are some tips: Have a good trainer guide you. This will help you gain strength and prevent injury. Use lighter weights and rest. Let your body have a break at least every other day.

People may have different dreams as they grow older. What do you want to be when you grow up? Everyone needs to answer this question.

When I was a little girl, my parents always asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I used to tell them a general, doctor, guard, and many more that I probably don’t remember. But now I really know what I want to be. I want to be a fashion designer.

What made me want to be a fashion designer? I often watch TV. The fashion shows on TV are fascinating. The tall, thin models wear beautiful clothes and walk beautifully on the stage. So I decided to be a designer and design beautiful clothes for people and make them look even better.

I have all kinds of dolls and I enjoy looking at their colorful clothes. I often change my dolls’ clothes. I try to put one doll’s clothes on another doll and see how it looks. Sometimes a skirt looks nice on one doll, but doesn’t look so good on another.

I also like reading fashion magazines. They are quite expensive, but my parents say they will pay for them if I am really interested in reading them. They want me to learn as much as possible.

For me, I will try my best to make my dream come true. I believe that one day my parents will take pride in what I can do.

In the past, he never sang and danced. Now he likes singing and dancing. He didn’t use to like doing sports. Now he enjoys doing different kinds of sports. He used to be short and fat. Now he is taller and thinner. I think these changes are great. They can make his life better than before.
