Happy to share with people，not happy to help you grow.开心可以与人分享，不开心助你成长。If when you want to help others，own growth is the fastest.就是当你想要帮助别人时，自己的成长是最快的。Only loneliness can let a person grow up，I enjoy a person's lonely.只有寂寞才可以让人成长，我享受一个人的孤独。Youth is not a time of life；it is a state of mind；it is not a matter of rosy cheeks，red lips and supple knees；it is a matter of the will，a quality of the imagination，a vigor of the emotions；it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.The second Monday of January is Coming­of­Age Day，a national holiday to encourage those who have newly entered adulthood to become self­reliant members of society.The holiday used to be on January 15，but in 2000 it was moved to the second Monday of the month.Municipal governments host special coming­of­age ceremonies for 20­year­olds，since an “adult” in Japan is legally defined as one who is 20 or over.They gain the right to vote on their twentieth birthday，and they're also allowed to smoke and drink.But along with these rights come new responsibilities as well，and so age 20 is a big turning point for the Japanese.Coming­of­age ceremonies have been held since time immemorial in Japan.In the past boys marked their transition to adulthood when they were around 15，and girls celebrated their coming of age when they turned 13 or so.During the Edo period(江户时代)(1603­1868)，boys had their forelocks cropped off，and girls had their teeth dyed black.It wasn't until 1876 that 20 became the legal age of adulthood.[探索发现]1．Find out when the Coming­of­Age Day is in Japan.The second Monday of January.2．Find out how old you are when you are defined as an adult.20.3．Find out how boys and girls celebrated their coming of age during the Edo period.Boys had their forelocks cropped off，and girls had their teeth dyed black.
