Last weekend, my friend Cherry threw a party. We all received our invitations in the middle of

May. ‘Come to my party on 30th June,’ the invitation said. ‘Don’t wear a dress or jacket and tie.

It will be a fancy dress party with a pirate theme.’

 When we arrived, Blackbeard the pirate greeted us at the door. It was Cherry, of course, in her costume. Then she showed us the way to the garden. It looked amazing! She had made hundreds of pirate flags, and she had hung them from the trees. She had painted old wooden boxes to look like treasure chests and put them on the patio instead of chairs. There was a table with fruit juice in jugs, and Cherry’s mum – with help from Cherry – had spent hours making delicious sandwiches, pies, salads and a curry. There was ice cream and even a cake with a pirate ship on it.

 Lots of parties aren’t planned properly. People stand around and wait for something to happen, but nothing ever does; they sit on sofas and chat; some, like me, make an excuse to leave early. But this party was different. Cherry’s brother had prepared a great playlist, and it was perfect for dancing. But the best part was the treasure hunt. Cherry’s dad had hidden a ‘treasure’ in the house and we had to find it. We were given pieces of paper with the first clue. There were ten clues and the last one was a map with the ‘treasure’ marked on it. I didn’t find it – a girl called Myrtle was the lucky one – but we had a lot of fun looking for it. And guess what! The ‘treasure’ was a telescope!

The party ended at midnight. Cherry’s mum switched off the lights and we were in the dark for a minute. When she switched them back on, she had a treasure chest full of chocolate ‘money’ for us.

I’ll never forget this party. It was incredible and I had the time of my life.

When you are a child, you’re the most important person in the world to your parents. They do everything for you, so it usually takes many years to realise that other people are important, too.

Some people never learn this simple truth – but real adults do.

а) A. Don’t waste time wishing for thingsб) B. How important is money? you can’t have

в) C. Look after your healthг) D. People don’t always do the right thing

д) E. Learn all the timeе) F. Life isn’t always good

є) G. You are not the only important person in the world

Everyone makes mistakes, but when things go wrong, real adults don’t lie about what happened. They don’t blame someone else and they don’t make excuses. They aren’t afraid or too proud to apologise for their mistakes and try and learn from them.

Dreams can come true, but real adults know these dreams must be realistic. If you’re 1.50 metres tall, you can’t be a professional basketball player. But sometimes it doesn’t matter if you’re only 1.50 metres. Can you make things? Then maybe you can be a good carpenter. Are you good with animals? Then maybe you can be a vet. Adults work hard for the things they have.

Real adults look after themselves. They know they should eat their vegetables, exercise regularly and get eight hours of sleep every night. They also know that it’s all right to eat sweets, drink cokes and stay up all night – occasionally.

⁵      

Real adults understand about money. They know they can’t go to the supermarket without it, they can’t buy a house or clothes or holidays. They also know that although some money is necessary for a good life, making money should not be our goal in life.

⁶      

Real adults know that education is important. They also understand that education is not only what happens at school or university. It happens all through life. They know that they can get one in many ways: from books, the internet, other people, life, the mistakes they make, travelling, from thinking a little every day.

а) A. Don’t waste time wishing for thingsб) B. How important is money? you can’t have

⁷      

Real adults know that sometimes life is boring and occasionally it’s exciting. It isn’t always happy and it isn’t always sad. Sometimes they must do things that they don’t want to do. At other times they are free to do anything they want. They know that good and bad things happen, but they also know that all things pass.
