读后感

长大了
我终于长成了大人，虽然我人依然很小。我没有长成像爸爸那样的大块头，但我终究还是比以前大了。
在刚刚长大的那段日子里，我曾为不用读书了而欢呼雀跃。
但有一天，我的老板对我说：“你是大人了，这些东西你该知道！”
我突然明白，我还没有完全长大，于是又开始重拾书本。
在继续长大的过程中，我发现我不仅可以送哥哥礼物了，我也有能力给爸爸妈妈还有更多我喜欢的人买礼物了。
我能去的地方也越来越多了。
我去阿尔卑斯山上滑了雪，我去爬了大西洋上的泰德火山，但是我还不能去喜马拉雅山顶。
除此之外，我还探索了欧洲的众多城镇，但是我却发现我回不了家了。
我虽然长大了一些，但依然很渺小，还有很多我做不了的事情。
也许我永远长不成一个真正的大人，但我可以比昨天的自己更大一点。
ENGLISH
Grow up
I have finally grown up, although I am still small. I haven't grown up that big like my father, but I am older and bigger than before.
At the beginning of the time when I grew up as an adult, I once was capering about for finishing school.
But one day, my boss told me: " You are an adult, you should have known such things!"
I suddenly realized that I am not grown up enough, so I start learning again.
On the way of growing bigger, I found that I can not only buy presents for my brother but also for my father and mother, and anyone I like.
There are also more and more places I can go.
I went to the Alpen for skiing, I reached the top of the volcano Teide on the Atlantic Ocean, but I cannot climb the Himalayan yet.
Besides, I explored numerous cities in Europe, but I realize that I cannot go home.
Although I am bigger, I am still small, there are plenty of things I cannot do.
Perhaps I would never grow up like a big man, but I can always be bigger than before.
