童年是快樂的、幸福的、美好的,像五颜六色的气球,像绚丽多彩的彩虹,令人品味出一丝丝甜蜜,回味无穷。下面让我们一起来阅读此文,与作者一起分享他童年的快乐!

It was a fine afternoon. Eddie was putting his toys into boxes. His family were about to move to a new house,and they needed their home cleaned for the next family. Eddie looked around his big and empty house,feeling a little sad. He liked this house and his friends—he did not really want to move.

Eddie followed his mother to the attic (阁楼). Eddie’s father was already up there,looking through boxes of old photos. He handed Eddie one. It did not have much color left,but showed a young boy playing baseball in his backyard.

“Who is that?”Eddie asked.

“That is me,Eddie,when I was your age,” his father replied.

“Look! Here’s one of me,”Eddie’s mother said,handing Eddie another photo. In it,a young girl was playing hopscotch (跳房子).

“You guys were kids?”Eddie asked.

“We weren’t born this old,” Eddie’s mother said,laughing.

Eddie looked at the photos some more. He had never seen his dad or mom playing baseball or hopscotch or other games. They were always working,cooking,cleaning,and driving. It was hard to imagine them as kids playing in their backyards.

Looking out,Eddie could see his backyard. He did have a lot of fun there,but he was not a little kid anymore. At the new house,he would go to a new school. He wanted to try out for the school soccer team and join the drama club. Maybe it was a good time to move after all.

As the family went down from the attic,Eddie picked up their camera,took it to his parents and said, “Mom,Dad,please take a photo of me playing in our backyard!”
