Being a teenager can be challenging, but it can also be exciting. You're becoming more independent(独立的)and making decisions for yourself. You are also bearing to take risks and solve problems better. And changes are happening throughout your body, even in your brain.
The changes in your brain are influencing how you develop into an adult. Imagine the structures(结构)of your brain is like a big road map. Lots of roads lead to different destinations(目的地).

You learn to see something with your eyes and respond(作出反应)to it with your hands. As you develop those skills, your brain is making sure that the roads leading to them are especially fast and efficient. So, your video﹣game playing could be preparing you for a career such as a pilot.
This is a great time for you to practice new skills and discover what you're good at and try what you love doing. Go out and try different activities, and stick to them if you think they are useful. Remember that with everything you do, you're shping your brain for the future.

The last Harry Potter movie will be on show in November. But “Hermione Granger” has already moved on from Hogwarts.

The British actress has played Hermione Granger in all Harry Potter movies since 2001. She said she needed to “take a break” and “get herself back together” after the filming.

Emma has kept her long hair for 10 years for the role of Hermione. But she doesn’t regret (遗憾) losing it. “I missed all the experiences that most teenagers go through. I’ve wanted to do this since I was about 16. So as soon as I had the chance I just did it,” she said.
The actress now has her first “grown-up” role (角色) in a film called My Week With Marilyn. Although (尽管) she only plays a small role, Emma will get a chance to work with many Oscar winning actors.

She is now a second year student.
