答案
Love, and then Be Loved Nowadays, it is not rare for teachers to complain that students are indifferent to their classmates. Some are even worried that the young generation might become too selfish to shoulder the due responsibility for the future of China. To be sure, many of our young people cannot see eye to eye with those teachers. However, from my direct observations as a university student, I must admit that we young people today are in general more self-centered and unsympathetic than our previous generations. To start with, many, if not most, young people choose to attend exclusively to their own needs. In their eyes, it is natural to seek satisfaction from what they do, even if it may cause inconvenience to others. Take my dormitory for example. It is a common scene here that a roommate cheerfully talks to his girlfriend on the phone at midnight while others are struggling for a sound sleep. One may complain now and then, but to no avail. In fact, the others live their dormitory life much in the same way. When I take a nap at noon, they often play cards without regard to my need. Life is a joy to them, but they often enjoy it neglecting others’ feelings. In sharp contrast, our caring parents always pay heed to our needs and those of people around them. Whenever my father comes back home late in the night, he tiptoes in for fear that he might awake the family. Whenever my mother goes downstairs to the morning fair, she always walks quietly lest she should disturb the neighbors. Moreover, we young people tend to be insensitive to others’ difficulties. When a classmate falls ill, few students offer to help; instead, they regard it as none of their business. Some students in my class come from poor families, but they are active mobile phone users, who may spend per month twice as much money as their parents can earn from arduous labor. When asked why they behave so, they answer that parents have the obligation to pay their bills. Personally, I detest their answer, for I know my parents never thought in that way when they were young. Being aware of their parents’ financial difficulty, our parents used various means to support themselves and managed to save every penny they could for the family. For the above reasons, I subscribe to the idea that today’s young people in China are more selfish and hard-hearted than were our previous generations. It is high time that we learned from older generations so that a harmonious and splendid future for us all can be anticipated.
