英文小作文:
When I think of my childhood, I remember all the wonderful moments I spent with my friends gathering together, playing games, and laughing together. Those moments are what I miss most about my childhood. We would gather around a campfire at night and tell stories, or we would gather in a classroom and learn new things. These gatherings were not only fun, but they also taught us valuable life lessons about teamwork, friendship, and perseverance. As we grow up, we may have to say goodbye to some of our childhood friends, but I believe that these memories will always remain with us, and they will help us to keep going in life"s challenges.
