Times are changing day by day. Doing the shopping is easier. Most people are better-dressed and they enjoy modern life. Girls are changing, too. There are many differences between the older and younger generations. I know a twelve-year-old girl, who, to my surprise, has little time to play. She told me that she dreamt of being a dancer, so she must learn to dance, play music and so on. Sometimes, she is out of breath under such pressure, but she can t stop because modern life is busy. In addition, I find those girls know more and more. Although they are little girls, they know how to dress fashionably. Sometimes they look older than their age, though. As an older female, I realize that compared with the modern girls, my generation is less well-educated and takes part in fewer leisure activities. I realize that we don t make full use of our time the way they do. Therefore, we should try our best to value our time and pursue our dreams.

　　Confident, proud and energetic, modern girls represent new times.
