Cultural notes1) The American Educational SystemIn the United States, education is the responsibility of individual states, not of the federal government, so requirements may vary from one state to another. The following is a generalization:kindergarten: under 5 years oldelementary / primary school (grades 1~6): 6~11 years oldjunior high / middle school (grades 7~8): 12~13 years oldsenior / high school (grades 9~12): 14~17 years oldcollege, institute, academy (学院), university2)The Right Way of Eating SpaghettiSpaghetti is the Italian-style thin noodle, cooked by boiling and served with sauce. Unlike some Chinese noodles, it is not served in soup and will never taste pulpy (软乎乎、没有嚼劲的).1. Hold the fork in your hand as if to poke the spaghetti.2. Scoop up a small amount of spaghetti on your fork and raise it about 30cm above your plate.3. Make sure the spaghetti on your fork is completely disconnected from the remainder on your plate.4. Put the prongs of the fork at an edge of the plate that is free of food.5. Quickly point the prongs of the fork straight down toward the plate and place the points on the plate.6. Twirl the fork to gather the spaghetti around the prongs.7. With a quick scooping movement, gather up the roll around the prongs and place it in your mouth.8. Gently gather up any stray spaghetti ends that don’t make it all the way into your mouth.Step 2.

Unit 4 How to grow old
How to Grow Old? Bertrand Russell
In spite of the title, this article will really be on how not to grow old, which, at my time of life, is a much more important subject. My first advice would be to choose your ancestors carefully. Although both my parents died young, I have done well in this respect as regards my other ancestors. My maternal grandfather, it is true, was cut off in the flower of his youth at the age of sixty-seven, but my other three grandparents all lived to be over eighty. Of remoter ancestors I can only discover one who did not live to a great age, and he died of a disease which is now rare, namely, having his head cut off. A great grandmother of mine, who was a friend of Gibbon, lived to the age of ninety-two, and to her last day remained a terror to all her descendants. My maternal

Correct the errors in the following passage. The passage contains ten errors, one in each indicated line. In each case, only one word is involved.Corrections should be done as follows:Wrong word: underline the wrong word and write the correct word in the blank.Extra word: delete the extra word with an “×.”Missing word: mark the position of the missing word with a “∧” and write the missing word in the blank.6. Fill in each blank in the passage below with ONE appropriate word.Growing OldHappy birthday! Do birthdays really make people happy Of course they do. Birthdays celebrate the day we were (1) born. Moreover, that extra candle on the cake represents another year of growth and maturity —or so we hope. We all like to imaginethat we’re getting wi ser and not just (2) older. Most of us enjoy observing the miracle of growth in others, as well. For instance, seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud.For Americans, like people in most cultures, growing up is a wonderful pro cess. But growing old That’s a different (3) story.Growing old is not exactly pleasant for people in youth-oriented American culture. Most Americans like to look young, act young and feel young. As the old saying goes, “You’re as young as you (4) feel. Older people joke about how many years young they are, rather than how many years (5) old. People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom. But Americans seem to favor those that are (6) young, or at least “young at heart.”Many older Americans find the “golden years” to be anything (7) but golden. Economically, “senior citizens” often struggle just to get (8) by. Retirement — typically at age 65 —brings a sharp (9) decrease in personal income. Social Security benefits usually cannot make up the (10) difference. Older people may suffer from poor nutrition, medical care andhousing. Some even experience (11) age discrimination. In 1987, American sociologist Pat Moore dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets. She was often (12) treated rudely — even cheated and robbed. However, (13) dressed as a young person, she received much more respect. Of course, not all elderly Americans have such negative (14) experiences. But old age does present unique challenges.Ironically, the elderly population in America is expanding — fast. Why People are living longer. Fewer babies are being born. And middle-aged “baby boomers” are rapidly (15) entering the ranks of the elderly. America may soon be a place where wrinkles are “in.”Despite the (16) challenges they face, Americans in their “twilight years” generally (17) refuse to give up on life. They find a variety of ways to keep themselves (18) active. To help them stay in (19) shape, they may join mall walkers clubs, fitness program s and even the “Senior Olympics.” They can enjoy hours of entertainment at senior centers and adult amusement (20) parks. Many enroll in continuing education programs to maintain their mental skills. For Americans, if you’re going to grow old, you might as well do it gracefully.IV. Translation1.

In each case, only one word is involved.Corrections should be done as follows:Wrong word: underline the wrong word and write the correct word in the blank.Extra word: delete the extra word with an “×.”Missing word: mark the position of the missing word with a “∧” and write the missing word in the blank.6. Fill in each blank in the passage below with ONE appropriate word.Growing OldHappy birthday! Do birthdays really make people happy? Of course they do. Birthdays celebrate the day we were (1) born. Moreover, that extra candle on the cake represents another year of growth and maturity — or so we hope. We all like to imaginethat we’re getting wiser and not just (2) older. Most of us enjoy observing the miracle of growth in others, as well. For instance, seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud.For Americans, like people in most cultures, growing up is a wonderful process. But growing old? That’s a different (3) story.Growing old is not exactly pleasant for people in youth-oriented American culture. Most Americans like to look young, act young and feel young. As the old saying goes, “You’re as young as you (4) feel. Older people joke about how many years young they are, rather than how many years (5) old. People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom. But Americans seem to favor those that are (6) young, or at least “young at heart.”Many older Americans find the “golden years” to be anything (7) but golden. Economically, “senior citizens” often struggle just to get (8) by. Retirement — typically at age 65 — brings a sharp (9) decrease in personal income. Social Security benefits usually cannot make up the (10) difference. Older people may suffer from poor nutrition, medical care and housing. Some even experience (11) age discrimination. In 1987, American sociologist Pat Moore dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets. She was often (12) treated rudely — even cheated and robbed. However, (13) dressed as a young person, she received much more respect. Of course, not all elderly Americans have such negative (14) experiences. But old age does present unique challenges.Ironically, the elderly population in America is expanding — fast. Why? People are living longer. Fewer babies are being born. And middle-aged “baby boomers” are rapidly (15) entering the ranks of the elderly. America may soon be a place where wrinkles are “in.”Despite the (16) challenges they face, Americans in their “twilight years” generally (17) refuse to give up on life. They find a variety of ways to keep themselves (18) active. To help them stay in (19) shape, they may join mall walkers clubs, fitness programs and even the “Senior Olympics.” They can enjoy hours of entertainment at senior centers and adult amusement (20) parks. Many enroll in continuing education programs to maintain their mental skills. For Americans, if you’re going to grow old, you might as well do it gracefully.IV. Translation1.

(完整word版)Unit 9 How to Grow Old课文翻译
(完整word版)Unit 9 How to Grow Old课文翻译Unit 9 How to Grow Old1. 与本文的标题相反，本文真正要谈的是如何才能不老，在我这个年纪，这才是更为重要的主题。
我的第一条忠告是,选准了祖先再投胎。
尽管我双亲都是英年早逝，我选择的其他祖先还是不错的。
诚然,我的外祖父在67岁正值盛年的时候去世，但另外3位祖辈都活到了80多岁。
更前的祖辈中，我发现只有一位没能长寿，他死于现今罕见的死因，即遭斩首。
我有位曾祖母是吉本的朋友,在92岁去世之前始终令子孙们敬畏不已.我的外祖母所生的孩子中9个活了下来，1个幼年夭折，此外她还有过多次流产。
守寡以后，她便立即投身于女子高等教育事业之中。
她是格顿学院的创办人之一，为了使女性能进入医生职业，她付出了很多心血。
她过去经常讲起她在意大利遇到的一位神情悲伤的老年绅士.她询问起他悲伤的缘故，他说因为他刚刚送走了两个孙儿女.“天哪！”她嚷道，“我有72个孙儿女，要是我每送走一个都如此悲伤,那我一生就会是凄凉的!” 他则回答说：“你这狠心的女人啊！"但作为她72个孙儿女中的一员，我则更喜欢她的处世方法.80岁时她发现自己有些难入睡,于是她养成了午夜至凌晨3点阅读科普书籍的习惯。
我想她根本无暇注意到自己在衰老.我认为这正是保持年轻的良方。
只要你兴趣广泛且强烈，有你还能做得了的事情，就不必为自己已经活了多少年这种纯粹的数字问题而伤神，更不必去想你来年无多的可能性.2. 至于健康,由于我很少得病，所以提不出什么有用的建议。
我想吃就吃,想喝就喝，想睡就睡.我做任何事情从来不是因为它对健康有益，尽管实际上我爱做的事通常都是有益健康的。
3。
从心理上说,老年人要防止两种危险.其一是过分沉湎于往事.人不能生活在回忆当中，也不能生活在对美好过去的惋惜或者对已故友人的哀痛之中。
一个人应当把心思放在未来、放在自己还可以有所作为的事情上。
这并不总是那么容易做到的,因为往事的分量会不断增加.人们很容易觉得过去自己的情感比现在更活跃，思想比现在更加敏锐。
