1．作弊在美国大学里被认为是一大问题，如何对付它已成为教师会议上的热点话题。有些教授说他们已不再要求学生写学期论文，因为许多学生购买事先写好的文章。同时还有些学校的教师已经决定对日益泛滥的作弊风采取不只是口头上的行动。不少教育者感到当学生对自己及他们的能力的信心增强时，他们就不太会去作弊。大多数学生拍手欢迎教师们狠刹作弊风的策略，有篇校报社论说，如同警察抓超速行驶者一样，打击作弊并非是为了抓住谁，而只是为了抓一儆百。
2．最近世界卫生组织（World Health Organization）宣布由于人们普遍接种牛痘（widespread vaccination）天花（smallpox）这种疾病几乎已经在全球大部分地区匿迹，这主要归功于1789年左右一位名叫爱德华.杰纳（Edward Jenner）的乡村医生的引人注目的发现。当时他发表了关于“接种牛痘”新方法的实验经过。杰纳发现同牲畜打交道的人们，如挤奶女工和看牛人，常从牲畜身上感染一种叫做牛痘（cowpox）的病。这种病对人无害，但这些人却似乎因此而从不得天花。于是他就在健康人的手臂上划一道道，然后染上牛痘。虽然他们的手臂会疼上一两天，但它们很快就愈合了，而且没有一个人得天花。这一神奇的发现很快就传到了国外，数以千计的人都使用了在手臂上划道道的简单做法。可怕的天花从此开始消失。
3．一百多年前，生物进化论的奠基人达尔文早就揭开了自然界中的生物链（biological chain）之谜。自然界中的各种物质在生态系统的循环中，都扮演着特定的角色。一旦各物种数量的恰当比例被破坏，生态系统就会出现失衡现象。自从人类从动物界解放出来以后，就成了大自然的主宰。但是人类纵然能上天入地，移山填海，却一刻也不能摆脱对动物的依赖，不能从自然界的生物链中挣脱出来。因为人类本身就是这个无形链中的一环。为了让生命的春色永驻，我们应更加珍惜爱护已不堪重创的地球，珍惜经过漫长进化发展而成的生命，尤其是那些濒临灭绝的珍稀动物。这应该是我们全人类的共同责任。
4．想理解计算机如何工作，不经专门训练是无法办到的，然而许多未受过科学训练的人们在日常生活中都使用计算机。在美国许多中小学里，年幼的儿童每天都有部分课程由计算机授课。
学校里使用计算机使一些美国人感到忧虑，有人害怕它会除去师生关系中的人情成分（remove the human element）；有些教师担心它会夺取他们的“饭碗”。另一方面，有些教育工作者却认为计算机辅助教学（computer assisted instruction）是一种很有价值的办法，它把教师从乏味、辛苦的任务中解放出来，从而使他们有更多的时间同学生个别交流。
在教育界，正如在工商、科学、医药界一样，计算机几乎在各类运作中发挥重要作用。将来计算机技术与应用还会有重要进步，这些进步将帮助人类努力改进世界。
5．有人会说，苏格拉底，你的生活道路可能让你过早地结束你的生命，难道你不为此感到遗憾（be ashamed of）？对他我可能会回答，你错了，一个有价值的人不该计较（calculate）自己生存或死亡的机会，他只应考虑自己在做任何事情时是否做得对。假如你们说，只要我不再钻研，思考（speculate）我的思想，你们就会放我，那么我回答，雅典人，我尊重你们，热爱你们，但我将听命于上帝而不是你：只要我有生命，有力量，我将永不停止我的哲学的研究和教学，你们的金钱，荣誉堆积如山（heap up），而你们对智慧、真理，灵魂的升华（improvement）却如此冷漠。难道你们不为此感到遗憾吗？
6．美国大学生活中一个不同寻常的特点是它的竞争性。同一层次的院校为师资、研究资金、学生、公众注意及其他许多方面而相互竞争。例如哈佛与斯坦福，为招收学生而积极争夺，令东京（Tokyo）大学、京都（Kyoto）大学之类的院校都感到不可思议。因为在那里入学考试决定一切。一个大学用高薪或更优越的工作条件雇请另一所大学的教授，在这方面美国也是独树一帜的。在日本，大学几乎清一色地（exclusively）雇用自己的毕业生。世界其他地区虽不及日本那么单一，但也基本如此。“同系繁殖”（inbreeding）触目皆是，和美
国名牌大学中多数系科形成了鲜明的对照。
7．二十世纪九十年代是个十分关键的年代。这十年中我们的取向（choices）将决定人口在下个世纪中主要的增长速度；决定世界人口在最终停止增长前究竟增加两倍还是一倍；决定人类对环境的破坏速度是加快还是减慢。目前已达53亿的世界人口还在以每秒3人的速度增长，这个速度相当于在九十年代期间每年增加整个东欧或中美洲的人口，十年之后世界人口将增加整整十个亿——又一个中国的人口。必须强调的是，这些展望（projections）还不是悲观的，相反，它们把下一个一百年中持续下降的生育率（fertility rate）已考虑在内。
8．在现实生活中，每个科学领域都是不完整的，而且大多数——不管他们在过去的两百年里完成了些什么——都处于最早期的阶段，例如生命科学，即使是最精通，最专业的人才也必须能每隔几年就转换研究路子（capable of changing course of research）有些生物领域的思路转换（the mind-changing）正在加速发生。下一周的期刊可能把整个一门科学翻过来，去除（shaking out）一些永恒不变的（immutable）观念，补充一些新的理论。这在物理学、化学、材料研究、遗传学、免疫学中几乎是每天发生的事。正是大自然的这奇妙使科学引人入胜（engrossing），使聪明的人们锲而不舍（keep at it），而这正应是科学教育中心所在。
9．据估计世界上大约有7亿人，即世界成年人口的一半不识字，也许还有2亿5千万人达到的水平几乎算不上有文化。近来扫盲的力度有所加强，联合国教科文组织（UNESCO）的专家们制定了一个世界计划，强调目标就是实用性文化。人们普遍认为推广、改进初级教育是扫盲的唯一最好武器，但由于应用不够造成复盲的威胁始终存在。
10．所有把人们行为纳入（guide…along）共同轨道（shared paths）的规范、信仰、价值观、知识和技能都属于文化的一部分。文化可以分成诸如人类艺术和技术产品的物质方面，以及人类规范、信仰、价值观以及交流方式等非物质的方面。全世界的人有不同的文化，因此他们行为标准常常也不同。我们往往会以为某些行为在全世界的含义大致相同，并且指望别人会像我们一样做。很明显事情并非如此，当我们处在不同的文化氛围之中时，我们可能会发现自己面对的情况是始料未及的。
11.掌握大量的词对于达到一门外语的流利程度是至关重要的。一个非官方的但却是经常被引用的有关剑桥初级证书英语考试的数字表明，词汇量少于三千五百词的学生不大可能在这项考试中成功。最近的研究也表明，其母语为英语的受教育至18岁或18岁以上的人至少人是一万六千个英语词。除非你已经会讲一种像西班牙语或德语这样的语言，要获得大的英语词汇量是没有捷径可走的：你就得依靠勤奋和专注。当然，你可以从上下文猜出你阅读中遇到的一些生词的意思，但往往你得查字典才能搞请他们的确切意思。一个切实可行的学习新词的方法或许就是大量阅读，最好是阅读那些你觉得有趣或刺激的故事。反复阅读同一本书常常是很有好处的：你每读一次都会学到不同的生词，而熟悉的背景又有助于将这些新词牢牢地印在你的脑海中。
12. 科学家是一群努力洞悉自然，在表面的杂乱无序中寻求规律的人，他们具有一种特殊的思考与分析能力，具有无限的耐心进行观察和收集数据。但是，并不能把一切科学发现都归因于能力和耐心，科学发现常常与创造性的想象力紧密相关，的确，想象力的飞跃往往是通向发现的第一步。另外，科学家也以其诚实而著称。他们非常重视诚实，主要是因为诚实对他们的事业至关重要。他们提出的每一个理论都要受到进一步的检验。每一个错误或谎言必将被发现，如果发现了与他们的想法相矛盾的证据，科学家不是隐瞒证据，而是修改甚至放弃他们的想法。这样，他们积累了极其大量的知识，这些知识帮助我们更好地了解自己及周围的世界。
13.相遇在清晨
每天清晨七点四十左右，我总会与她在路上相遇。时间一久，我几乎能以与她相遇的时刻来估计离上班还剩多少时候了。
她是一个十分秀丽的姑娘，细挑的个儿，文静的举止。总而言之，是我理想中的恋人形象。然而自尊和理智告诉我，这是一个可望不可及的姑娘，如果我敢贸然在街上与她搭讪的话。
一年四季，除去星期天，我与她几乎天天相遇，有时候我们彼此会注意地向对方望上一眼，然后探肩而过。有一天，她在与我探肩而过时，不小心把手中的一本书掉落在地，我立刻停步弯腰替她拾起了书。“谢谢。”一声银铃般的少女羞涩的话音，沁入我的耳畔。“不谢。”我也颇有礼貌地答道。
这天是我多少年来最兴奋的一天。然而这毕竟是她第一次与我开口讲话，在当天的日记里，我把她想象成一个颇具修养的文学青年，因为我拾起她掉的那书时，看了书名，是托尔斯泰的名著《战争与和平》。
第二天清晨，我与她仍然在老地方相遇，她朝我羞涩地一笑，我故作矜持地微笑以待。然而心中的高兴劲儿甭提了。在当天的日记里，我对她的笑容用了近十个比喻。
我等待已久的那个神圣时刻终于要来临了。那是秋季的一个雨蒙蒙的清晨，那天本是我的厂休，但我依然在老地方等候她。她走近才发现我，神色诧异了好一阵，我匆匆把一本巴尔扎克的名著递给她：“不知你看过这本书吗？”我感到自己的心房急如鼓。她神色羞怯地接过书，还是那声熟悉的“谢谢”。
五年后，她终于成了我的妻子。新婚那夜，我把那本厚厚的日记递给她，那是我和她相遇直至热恋结婚漫长时光里的每天日记。她看着日记，渐渐泪水如涌……
14.近读报纸，对国内名片和请柬的议论颇多，于是想起客居巴黎时经常见到的法国人手中的名片和请柬，随笔记下来，似乎不无借鉴之处。
在巴黎，名目繁多的酒会、冷餐会是广交朋友的好机会。在这种场合陌生人相识，如果是亚洲人，他们往往开口之前先毕恭毕敬地用双手把自己的名片呈递给对方，这好像是不可缺少的礼节。然而，法国人一般却都不大主动递送名片，双方见面寒喧几句甚至海阔天空地聊一番也就各自走开。只有当双方谈话投机，希望继续交往时，才会主动掏出名片。二话不说先递名片反倒有些勉强。
法国人的名片讲究朴素大方，印制精美，但很少有镶金边儿的，闪光多色的或带香味儿的，名片上的字体纤细秀丽，本人的名字也不过分突出，整张纸片上空白很大，毫无拥挤不堪的感觉。
15.在离选举日还有四个月的时间，有五个人聚集在里根－布什总部的一个小型会议室里，
翻着看一张硕大无比的日历，日历上清晰地标识出了1984年总统竞选剩下的日子。这是六月份的最后一个星期六的上午10时，整幢办公楼的其他部分几近人去楼空。即便如此，这几个人仍将大门紧闭，小心翼翼地拉下窗帘。三个主要人物及其二个副手从美国的不同地方汇聚在一起，召开一个殊为重要的会议。他们的目标是构思出一种策略，来确保里根能再次当选，在第二任期内再度入主白宫。
要谋求再次当选理应轻而易举。这是一些久经沙场的退伍老兵，与里根有着千丝万缕的漫长联系，与共和党的联系甚至更为久远。这些人深谙总统政治，一如他们熟知这个国家中的所有政治事务那样。竞选的背景十分宜人，可供大做文章的好消息俯拾皆是：美国正置身于太平盛世之中；作为选举的一个关键因素，整个国家的经济在步出萧条期之后正强劲反弹。此外，竞选本身所筹得的款项更是不计其数。用于支付一流水平的竞争班子工作人员工资、进行巡回造势、以及制作播放电视广告的钱款绰绰有余。最为重要的是，他们所推介的总统候选人是罗纳尔德•里根（Ronald Reagan），一位风度翩翩，魅力无穷，又极具迷人沟通技巧的执政总统。与约翰•F•肯尼迪（John F. Kennedy）以来的任何一位历届总统相比，里根更成功地勾勒出了一幅广阔的关于美国未来的前景--美国将成了一个重振军事雄风、
民众富于个人进取心、联邦政府更加精简高效的国家。
16.在兽类中我最爱虎，在虎的故事中我最爱下面的一个。
深山中有一所古庙，几个和尚在那里过着单调的修行生活。同他们做朋友的，除了有时上山来的少数乡下人外，就是几只猛虎。虎不惊扰僧人，却替他们守护庙宇。作为报酬，和尚把一些可吃的东西放在庙门前。每天傍晚，夕阳染红小半个天空，虎们成群地走到庙门口，吃了东西，跳跃而去。庙门大开，僧人们安然在庙内做他们的日课，也没有谁出去看虎怎样吃东西，即使偶尔有一二和尚立在门前，虎们亦视为平常的事情，把他们看做熟人，不去惊动，却斯斯文文地吃完走开。如果看不见僧人，虎就发出几声长啸，随着几阵风飞腾而去。
17.第二年正式签署和约，随后过了一个月慈禧才终于从西安动身。她对外国人万分惧怕，正像她对国人无比傲慢一样。她在河南停留了很长一段时间，到了保定又逗留多日，好不容易才回到北京。据野史记载，在这漫长的旅途中还发生了一件趣事。一位地方官员送给慈禧一只猴子，她颇为高兴，竟下旨给那只猴子穿黄马褂。后来太监报告说，有的官员发出了"人不如猴"的感慨，慈禧这才发现自己的决定有些荒唐，于是又下旨给随行官员每人一件黄马褂。得到这殊荣之后，大家真不知道该感谢慈禧还是感谢那只猴子。
18.中国家庭一向尊老爱幼。在大家庭里，老一辈人的意见受到尊重，小一辈的人得到全家的爱护。中国宪法规定赡养父母是成年子女义不容辞的责任。在城市里，不和家里老人一起住的年轻夫妇给老人生活费并帮助他们干家务活儿。在农村，尽管大家庭解体了，许多结了婚的儿子和他的家人还和父母住在同一个院子里。对他们来说，分家不过是分灶而已。结了婚的儿子往往把房子盖在父母家附近，这样父母和子女互相帮助、探望都和过去一样方便。
19.我看不见那个小子的脸，不知道他脸上的表情，但是从他刚才的话里，我知道对于他另外有一个世界存在。没有家，没有爱，没有温暖，只有一根生活的鞭子在赶他。然而他能够倔强！他能够恨！他能够用自己的两只手举起生活的担子，不害怕，不悲哀。他能够做别的生在富裕的环境里的小孩所不能够做的事情，而且有着他们所不敢有的思想。生活毕竟是一个熔炉。它能够锻炼出这样倔强的孩子来。甚至人世间最惨痛的遭遇也打不倒他。
20.万事万物由方方面面组成，而那个"男女都一样"的口号，只是向女人提出要求，却没有相同的口号要求男人和女人做得一样：一样耐心持久地抚育孩子一样任劳任怨地操持家务；一样尽心尽责地伺奉老人。仔细想想，"男女都一样"的口号曾鼓励着许多妇女竭力地建树了和男人一样的丰功伟绩，同时，女人却依然要做那些和男人不一样的事。其实，所谓"一样"的口号，使女人在做着女人的同时再做男人；其实，所谓"一样"的口号，让女人们又给自己加重了一挑担子；其实，女人和男人在根本上还是不一样的。
21.我细细量过九十九次自己标高，实属"终生残废"系列。但那时年少，血旺气盛，誓与凡俗抗争到底，于是连哄带骗将一净高1.74米女孩拐回家做起了太太，这一壮举颇为"残废人"们扬了一段眉吐了半口气。
将太太置回家中后我才意识到自己的悲哀，这一愤世之举不仅未了我"终生残废"而又平添我"终生遗憾"，我从未享受过将男人坚定有力的胳膊窝勾着太太姣美柔滑的后脖子上街遛弯的幸福。
22.长城，东起山海关，西至嘉峪关，横跨中国北部，全长六千多公里，号称"万里长城"，是中国古代劳动人民智慧的结晶，是世界伟大的建筑奇迹之一。
中国最早的长城，远在公元前七世纪就已经出现了。公元前221年，秦始皇统一六国后，把秦、赵、燕三国原有长城连接起来，绵延万余里，奠定今天长城的规模，以后历代均有修筑。现存长城，是明代修建的。
长城依山势蜿蜒起伏，宛如苍龙凌空飞舞，十分雄伟壮观，是无数中外游人的登临胜地。
23.朱红的帽结子发着光，青缎小帽发着光，帽檐上的一颗大珍珠发着光，二蓝团龙缎
面的灰鼠袍子发着光，米色缎子坎肩发着光，雪青的褡包在身后发着光，粉底官靴发着光。众人把彩虹挡住，请安的请安，问候的问候，这才看清一张眉清目秀的圆胖白洁的脸，与漆黑含笑的一双眼珠，也都发着光，听不清楚他说了些什么，虽然他的嗓音很清亮。他的话每每被他的哈哈与啊啊啊扰乱；雪白的牙齿一闪一闪地发着光。
24.明太祖朱元璋出身极其微贱，除了天生才具之外一无所有。他的父母是极其贫苦的农民，因饥荒而背井离乡。为了不至于全家都饿死，他们把儿子卖进了寺庙。朱元璋做了几年小和尚，然后就跑掉当了土匪。在当时天下大乱、反叛四起的情况下，他这么做倒是顺理成章。过了一些年，他在南京登基坐殿，开创了明朝近三百年的江山。
25.西洋人究竟近乎白痴，什么事都只讲究脚踏实地去做，这样费力气的勾当，我们聪明的中国人，简直连牙齿都要笑掉了。西洋人什么事都讲究按部就班地慢慢动作来，从来没有平地登天的捷径，而我们中国人专走捷径，而走捷径的第一个法门，就是吹牛。
吹牛是一件不可看轻的艺术，就如修辞学上不可缺少"张喻"一类的东西一样。像李太白什么"黄河之水天上来"，又是什么"白发三千丈"，这在修辞学上就叫做"张喻"，而在不懂修辞学的人看来，就觉得李太白在吹牛了。
26.上周，联合国举行了世界粮食安全峰会。但是罗马为期三天的会议只产生了有限的对付饥饿增长的措施。世界粮食计划署说超过十亿的人口-世界上六分之一的人得不到足够的粮食来保障健康。
困境中的世界经济不是进来饥饿人数增长的唯一原因。最贫穷国家在其他国家粮食价格已经回落的时候仍继续面临着高粮食价格。世界粮食安全委员会说超过三十个国家继续需要紧急粮食援助。
秘书长潘基文说粮食危机已经迫使数百万的家庭陷入贫穷和饥饿。他说每年有600万的儿童死于饥饿。并且他警告说粮食安全和全球气候变化紧密相连系。
潘基文说：“当全球人口在增长的同时，我们全球的气候也在变化。到2050年我们将需要增加百分之七十的粮食产量。然而气候也变得越来越难以预测。”
罗马会议的代表们纷纷保证到2015年将减少一半以上的饥饿人口。但是评论家们指出世界领导们在10年前已经做出了类似的保证。
几个国家保证将增加农业援助，来帮助发展中国家变得独立。
然而，另评论家们悲哀的是缺乏更有利的行动。来自超过60个国家的领导人来到罗马。但是意大利总理西尔维奥.贝鲁斯科尼是唯一位来自主要发达国家八国集团的领导人.一位来自肯尼亚的官员,亚当.巴尔.杜亚里.说这表明在对抗饥饿上缺乏一致性.
亚当.巴尔.杜亚里:"我们需要发达世界和发展中国家在对抗饥饿的战争中一起做出第一步。”世界粮农组织说每年需要在农业上投资超过400亿美元来对抗世界饥饿问题。这个不断发展的问题已经影响了发展中国家，包括工业国。
政府预计去年联合国中4900万人粮食不安全。那意味着他们全家，一年中的一些时间，因为缺乏资源而出现全家人没有足够的粮食提供。差不多百分之十五的家庭是那种处境。农业部说今年这个数字甚至可能更高。
27.我的一个好朋友最近接受了白血病测试。她对我说，最令人痛苦的折磨就是苦苦等待测试结果的那一周时间。我朋友说，她可能会学着直面坏结果。但真正让人煎熬焦虑的是那种茫然的感觉。
孟克(Edvard Munch)的名画《呐喊》哈佛大学心理学家吉尔伯特(Daniel Gilbert)不久前在《纽约时报》(New York Times)的专栏中写道，不知道要发生什么坏事比知道什么坏事要发生的感觉更糟。我们大多数人之所以会夜不能寐、抽烟发泄，并不是因为道琼斯指数要再跌1000点，而是因为我们不知道道指会不会下跌──不确定的感觉比不确定的事情本身更折磨人。
28.我和丈夫结婚已经五年了，从我们的腰围就能看出来。虽然我们俩都还算天生苗条，也尽量定期健身，但自打结婚生子以来我们还是无可避免地长胖了一点。（事实上，我那个还在学步的孩子这段时间最喜欢的活动就是揪着我的肚皮狂笑。真是多谢了。）刊登在《肥胖》(Obesity)杂志和《商业周刊》网站(https://www.doczj.com/doc/4c19188737.html,)的新研究发现，已婚夫妇变得肥胖的机率是正在恋爱但尚未结婚或同居的人的两倍。结婚时间越长，体重增加、变得肥胖的风险就越大。
北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校(University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill)的研究人员说，两个人生活在一起就会一同行动，比如说一块儿吃饭看电视。科学家们还强调，婚姻会带来许多健康方面的好处，比如说少抽烟，死亡率也会降低。
29.一艘货轮卸货后在浩瀚的大海上返航时，突然遭遇了可怕的风暴。水手们惊慌失措，经验丰富的老船长果断地命令水手们立刻打开货舱，往里面灌水。"船长是不是疯了，往船舱里灌水只会增加船的压力，使船下沉，这不是自寻死路吗？"一个年轻的水手嘟哝着。
30看着船长严厉的脸色，水手们还是照做了。随着货船里的水位越升越高，随着船一寸一寸地下沉，猛烈的狂风巨浪对船的威胁却一点一点地减少，货轮渐渐平稳了。
31.船长望着松了一口气的水手们说："百万吨的巨轮很少有被打翻的，被打翻的常常是份量轻的小船。船在负重的时候，是最安全的；空船时，则是最危险的。"
这就是"压力效应"。那些得过且过，没有一点压力，做一天和尚撞一天钟的人，像风暴中没有载货的船，往往一场人生的狂风巨浪便会把他们打翻。
32.一头驮着沉重货物的驴，气喘吁吁地请求只驮了一点货物的马："帮我驮点东西吧。对你来说，这不算什么；可对我来说，却可以减轻不少负担。"
马不高兴地回答："你凭什么让我帮你驮东西，我乐得轻松呢。" 不久，驴累死了。主人将驴背上的所有货物全部加在马背上，马懊悔不已。
膨胀的自我使我们忽略了一个基本事实，那就是：我们同在生活这条大船上，别人的好坏与我们休戚相关。别人的不幸不能给我们带来快乐，相反，在帮助别人的时候，其实也是在帮助我们自己。
33.从前，在一个国家里，有一位做了无数善事的善心者。国王非常欣赏他的善举，便封他为圣者。
有一天，圣者过八十大寿，国王前来庆贺，特别带来一位画家，想通过画家的笔，将这位圣者慈祥的容貌画下来，作为世人的典范。
用完晚餐之后，众多的嘉宾前来观赏这幅慈爱的画。肖像画家将这幅画像拿出来的时候，所有人大吃一惊。因为画里的人根本没有慈善的面貌，反而充满暴戾，粗野，邪恶的气息。国王一看，生气地要人把画家拖出去鞭打。
这时，圣者听到惊呼声，跑了过来，他看到这幅画后，跪倒在地："国王，这画里的人，才是真实的我啊。"国王惊诧地问："为什么？"圣者道："这就是我一生挣扎着，不想去做的那个人啊。"
在这世上，没有天生的圣者，惟有能时时刻刻自我反省，自我检视的人，才能成为圣者。
34.张恨水先生曾写过一篇《为人应当接受批评》，他说："生平很少和人打笔墨官司，就是人家指出我的名姓来教训一顿，我也不曾回复一个字。这样做，我并非怯懦，也并非过分的容忍。我有个感想，我错了，止谤莫如自修。我不错，最好借事实来答复。这是一个办法，也许不适合他人，但至少我自己，在做人上纠正了不少错误。而三十年来的写作生涯，略有寸进，一大半也就是根据别人的批评而得的。" 恨水先生对待批评的态度，很值得当今文化人学习。
35.有三种朴实却异常强烈的激情左右着我的人生：渴望爱情、寻求知识和对受苦人的怜悯。这三种激情尤如飓风肆意地吹着我,从无边的苦海吹向绝境。
我寻找爱，因为爱使人陶醉。我常常宁愿用我全部的余生来换取几个小时这样的欣喜。我寻找爱，因为爱使我解除了孤寂，解除了一个颤抖的灵魂从人世间到冷漠无底的深渊所经历的孤寂。我寻找爱，因为我在爱的缩影中看到了圣人和诗人眼里天堂的景象。这就是以往我寻找的，虽然对于人生来说似乎过于美好，但我终于找到了。
以同样的激情，我寻求知识。我渴望理解人类的心灵。我想知道群星为何闪烁。我试图领悟毕达哥拉斯的数的魔力，它支配着数的和谐。我已多少达到了此目的。
爱和知识总是通往天堂。但是怜悯总把我带回尘世。痛苦喊叫的回声在我心中回荡。挨饿的孩子，遭摧残的受害者，被子女视为累赘的无助老人，以及这个充满孤独、贫穷和痛苦的世界，是对应有人生的一种嘲弄。我渴望减轻这种灾难，但是我无能为力，我也在受苦。
36.有两只老虎，一只在笼子里，一只在野地里。在笼子里的老虎三餐无忧，在外面的老虎自由自在。
笼子里的老虎总是羡慕外面老虎的自由，外面的老虎却羡慕笼子里的老虎安逸。一日，一只老虎对另一只老虎说："咱们换一换。"另一只老虎同意了。
于是笼子里的老虎走进了大自然，野地里的老虎走进了笼子。但不久，两只老虎都死了。一只是饥饿而死，一只是忧郁而死。
许多时候，人们往往对自己的幸福熟视无睹，而觉得别人的幸福很耀眼，却想不到别人的幸福也许对自己不合适。
37.突然之间，人人都在谈论不断消失的百万富翁们。
周二，《华尔街日报》有篇文章谈到了美国马里兰州百万富翁越来越少。现在有消息说，英国的百万富翁人数减少了约一半。
这并不是因为富翁们移民或是避税去了，而是个人财务状况出了问题。
正如过去一年中我所写的，富人们在此次危机中遭受了重创，原因主要是他们的投资和房地产的价值锐减。正因为如此，百万富翁（特别是富翁中的"贫困户"）的人数骤减。
38.传道者感叹到："著书立说没有止境"，却没发觉他已高度评价了作家这一职业。的确，写作、旅行、积聚财富都是没有终结的。一个问题引发另外一个问题。我们不断学习，且永远达不到心中所渴望的那般学识渊博。我们永远雕刻不出自己心仪的塑像。当发现一个新大陆,或翻过一座山脉时，我们总会看到远方还有未曾涉足的海洋与陆地。宇宙浩渺，总会有供我们勤奋努力的东西，总会有供我们探索的空间。它不像卡莱尔的著作，可以读完。即使在其一角，在一个私人花园，或一个农庄附近，四季轮回，天气瞬息万变，哪怕在那里生活了一辈子，也总会有让我们惊喜的事情。
39.老太太总以自家花园里那棵高大的玫瑰树为荣。她非常喜欢告诉别人，数年前她初次结婚时从罗马带回来的枝条，是如何长成如今这般高大的。那时，她与丈夫乘马车从罗马旅行归来(那时还没有火车)，途经锡耶那南部的崎岖路段时，马车坏了，他们被迫就宿于路边的小屋里。住宿条件当然非常差；她一夜未能安眠，一早便起身穿好衣服，立于窗前，感受着扑面而来的席席凉风，等待着黎明的到来。事隔多年，她仍然记得那情景。明月高悬在青山群峦之上，远处山峰上的小镇逐渐明亮起来，月亮慢慢消退，晨曦把群山涂得粉红。突然之间，一束阳光照亮了城镇。城里的窗户相继明亮起来，反射出耀眼的光芒。最后，整个小城宛若繁星，在天空中不停闪烁。
40.当你步入婚姻的殿堂，你可能认为已经爬到了山顶，剩下的只是悠闲地沿着平缓的山坡下山。然而，这只是恋爱的结束，婚姻的开始。拥有一颗骄傲而又叛逆的心，坠入爱河与赢得爱情都是难事；但维持爱情也很重要，夫妻都应相敬如宾,互相关爱。当真爱起始于圣坛之时，夫妻之间便开始了一场智慧与慷慨的竞争，一场为了一个不可能实现的理想而持续一生的奋斗。不可能实现？啊，当然不可能，因为他们不是一个人，而是两个呀。
41.正是因为不停地追求进取，我们才感到生活幸福。一件事完成后，另一件随之而来，
如此连绵不绝，永无止境。对于往前看的人来说，眼前总有一番新天地。虽然我们蜗居于这颗小行星上，整日忙于锁事且生命短暂，但我们生来就有不尽的希望，如天上繁星，遥不可及。只要生命犹在，希望便会不止。真正的幸福在于怎样开始，而不是如何结束，在于我们的希翼，而并非拥有。
42.周日，陈冯富珍与世界卫生组织的工作人员和全球各地的流感专家举行了电话会议。不过，会议除了敦促各国政府加强对疑似病例的监控外，并没有拿出遏制疫情蔓延的具体措施。
43.与舞蹈和音乐相伴的歌谣跟口头流传的神话，远在文字出现之前就已大量产生。中国的文学正是发端于此。不过歌谣本是人们在生活中随兴而发的东西，上古时代也没有保存和记载它们的手段，因之也就很快湮灭，不留痕迹。我们只能从一些古籍书中推断它们的存在。古书中记载了一些据称年代非常久远的歌谣，但是大多出于后人的伪托，能够断定朝代的歌谣要到《诗经》里才能看见。从这点来看，古代神话对中国文学的影响更为显著。
1.Cheating is considered as such a big problem in American universities that how to
deal with it has become a hot topic. Some professors haven’t asked their students for term papers any more, owing to the fact that many students purchase some articles written in advance. And teachers in some educational institutions have decided to take non-verbal actions to put down the atmosphere of increasingly overabundant cheating. Not a few educationalists have the idea that the strengthened confidence in themselves and their capabilities will make it impossible for students to cheat. A vast majority of students applaud for the drastic steps taken by the faculty to stop the atmosphere of cheating. Just as a police catches a speeder, says an editorial in a campus newspaper, to crack down on cheating is not to catch a specific person, but to spread the word.
2.Recently the WHO declared that thanks to widespread vaccination, smallpox has
almost disappeared in main parts of the world. This achievement mainly gives credit to a significant discovery made by a rural doctor named Edward Jenner in 1789 or so. At that time he announced the new experimental process of vaccination. Jenner found those who made contacts with their livestock, say milkmaids and cowboys, were often infected with a disease called “cowpox”, which was harmless to people. But once someone developed this disease, he or she would never suffer from smallpox. Thus he cut a line in healthy people’s arms and then infected them with cowpox. Though they would feel painful in their arms for one or two days, their cuts would heal quickly and none of them had developed the disease of smallpox from then on. This magic discovery spread overseas in a short time, and thousands of people used this simple method of cutting a line in the arm. Hence the terrible smallpox began to disappear.
3.Over a hundred years ago, the founder of the Theory of Evolution Darwin has
uncovered the mystery of biological chain in the natural world, in which all kinds of substances play specific roles in the circulation of an ecosystem. Once the proper rates of all species’ quantities are destroyed, the ecosystem will be out of balance. Human beings have become the ruler of nature since they were freed from the animal kingdom. Nevertheless, even if human beings can fly in the sky, go beneath the earth, remove the mountain and fill up the sea, they cannot survive without relying on animals, nor can they free themselves from
the biological chain in the natural world. This is because human beings are linked to this invisible chain. To preserve the spring of life forever, we should ever more cherish the earth that can't bear heavy losses any longer, and the lives that have evolved over a very long period of time, especially those endangered rare animals. This should be our common responsibility of all human beings.
4.Those who have no specific training would fail to understand how computers work. However, many people are using computers in their daily lives despite the fact that they haven’t received scientific training. In many American primary or secondary schools, young children are given parts of lessons by computers. Using computers in schools worries some Americans, some of whom are afraid that it will remove the human element between teachers and students; some teachers are worried that it will take by force their "jobs". On the other hand, some educationalists consider that computer assisted instruction is a valuable approach that makes it possible for teachers to be relieved from their tedious and painstaking duties and thereby to have more time to get in personal contact with students. In educational circles, just as in commercial, scientific and medical circles, computers play an important role in almost all kinds of operations. Human beings will make great progress in the computer technology and application in the future, which will help them endeavor to improve the world.
5.Someone will say, Socrates, aren't you ashamed of the fact that your path of life may make you come to an untimely end? To him, I may reply, you are wrong, a worthy person should not calculate his or her opportunity to survive or die, but consider whether or not he or she is right in doing everything. If you say, you will set me free as long as I don't study intensively and speculate on my ideas any more, I will respond, Athenians, I respect you, and love you, but I will follow orders of God but not you: I will never stop my research and teaching in philosophy as long as I am still alive and have physical strength. Although your money and honor are heaped up, you are so indifferent to the wisdom, the truth and the improvement of the spirit. Aren't you ashamed of this?
6.An unusual feature of college life in America is its competitiveness. Colleges of the same level compete with each other for faculties, research funds, students, public attention and many other aspects. For example, Harvard and Stanford vigorously contend for enrolling new students, which is unbelievable to such colleges as Tokyo University and Kyoto University. It's just because entrance examination will decide everything there. One university can employ professors who used to work for another university by providing them with higher salaries or better working conditions, which is unique in America. In Japan, almost all universities exclusively employ their own graduates. The same is basically true of colleges in other parts of the world, although they are not so uniform as those in Japan. Inbreeding can be found everywhere, in striking contrast with most of the departments or branches of American well-known universities.
7.The 1990s is a very crucial era. Our choices in this decade will decide what the main growth rate of population for the next century will be: whether the world population will double or triple before it stops growing; and whether the speed of destruction to the environment will be accelerated or decelerated. Up to now the world population has amounted to 5.3 billion and continued to increase at the rate of three persons per second. This rate means that, in the 1990s, the population worldwide will increase to the entire population
of Eastern Europe or Middle America every year and to 1 billion 10 years later—the population of China. It must be emphasized that these projections are not pessimistic yet, and on the contrary, they have taken into account the continually decreasing fertility rate.
8.In real life, every scientific field is incomplete and a majority—no matter what they have completed over the past two centuries—is still in their earliest phase. Let's take the example of life science: even the most proficient and professional talents must be capable of changing course of research every several years and the mind-changing in some biological fields is accelerating. The periodical of next week may overthrow an overall discipline of science, shaking out some immutable concepts and adding some new theories. This occurs in physics, chemistry, material research, genetics, and immunology almost every day. It is this magic of nature that makes science engrossing and makes smart people keep at it. And this should be the focus of science education.
9.It is estimated that the world has the illiterate population of about 0.7 billion, that is, one half of the adults worldwide can't read. Perhaps there are 250 million who can't be considered literate. Recently eliminating illiteracy has been strengthened. Experts from UNESCO make a world plan, which stresses its purpose of practical culture. It is generally considered that to popularize and improve the primary education is the only and best weapon to wipe out illiteracy, but the threat of re-illiteracy still exists for lack of enough application.
10.All rules, beliefs, values, knowledge and skills belong to a part of culture only if they guide people along shared paths. Cultures can be classified into material aspects, such as human arts and technical products, and non-material aspects, such as human rules, beliefs, values and communication styles. People of all nations have different cultures so that their behavior standards are usually different. We tend to think that some behaviors have the similar meaning all over the world and expect others to do the same as us. Obviously, such is not the case. When we live in different cultural ambience, we might find what we will face is not what we have expected.
11.Mastering a large number of words is essential to achieving fluency in a foreign. An unofficial, but often quoted, figure for the Cambridge First Certificate examination suggests that students with a vocabulary of less than 3,500 words are unlikely to be successful in the exam. Current research also suggests that native English speakers who have been educated up to 18 years old or beyond know at least 16,000 English words. And unless you already speak a language like Spanish or German, there are no short-cuts to large vocabulary in English: you just have to rely on diligence and dedication. Of course you can figure out from the context the meanings of some new words you come across in your reading, but more often than not you have to look them up in a dictionary in order to be clear about their accurate meanings. A practicable way to pick up new words is, perhaps, to read a lot, preferably stories that you find interesting or exciting. It often pays to read the same book over and over again: each time you read it you will learn different new words, and the familiar context helps to fix them in your mind.
12.Scientists are a small group of people who strive to gain insights into nature, seeking order in seeming disorderliness. They are credited with a special ability to think and analyze, and with infinite patience in making observations and collecting data. But ability and patience do not account for all scientific discoveries, which often have much to do with creative imagination. Indeed a leap of imagination is often the first step towards discovery.
Scientists are also noted for their honesty. They place a high premium on honesty largely because it is essential to their career. Every theory they formulate is subjected to further testing. Every mistake or lie is bound to be found out. Therefore if any evidence is found contradicting their ideas, scientists do not suppress the evidence but modify or even abandon their ideas. In this way they have built up an immense body of knowledge, which helps us to understand better ourselves and the world around us.
13.Morning Encounter. Every morning at about seven-forty, I would meet her on my way to the work. With the passage of time, I can even tell how much time left before work according the exact time I meet her. She is the ideal sweetheart with her beautiful image, slender figure, and graceful movements. But I know that she is only a girl to be admired for me and I have no courage to talk with her for a long time. We can encounter nearly every day except for Sunday, and occasionally look at each other for a while when going pass. One day, I bund down and picked up the book dropped from her hand when she was passing me. “Thank you!” she said with a sweet-sounding voice. “Not at all,” I repli ed politely. I had never felt so excited for a long time. I considered the day as the best day, because she had spoken to me for the first time. I imagined her as a girl cultivated in literature in my diary, because the book she had dropped was Tolstoy’s “War and Peace”. The next morning, I felt so excited when she smiled to me shyly, though I tried my best to hide my agitation when I smiled back. In my diary, I used about ten metaphors to describe her smile. Then the long awaited sacred moment finally came. In a drizzling autumn morning, I waited her in the place where we encountered every day, though I didn’t have to go work.She didn’t recognize me until she came close to me and looked at me with a surprise face. I felt my nervous heart struck when I pass ed her a Balzac’s book and say “have you read this book?” She took the book shyly and said “Thanks” with the same voice. Five years later, she became my wife. In the night we married, her tears ran down when she read my thick diary which recorded the course we fell in love.
14.In reading recent newspapers, I have come to find that people in China have become more and more interested in discussing about name cards and invitation letters. This has triggered my reminiscences of the name cards and invitation letters of the French people that I saw when I was residing in Paris. In writing down those random reminiscences, I believe that they might provide some useful information for us to learn from. In Paris, all the wine parties and buffet receptions held on various occasions provide optimum opportunities to make friends with all varieties of people. When encountering a stranger on such an occasion, an Asian would invariably hand over his name card to the newly-met stranger with full reverence, with both of his hands, even before he starts to converse with the stranger. Such an act seems to have become an indispensable ritual (formality/etiquette). By contrast, an average Frenchman seldom takes the initiative to (offers to / volunteers to) present his name card. Instead, he would simply walk away after an exchange of routine greetings or even some aimless (random/ casual) chat. Only when both sides become deeply engrossed (engaged / involved) in their conversation and have the intention to make further acquaintance with each other would they offer to give their name cards. It would seem somehow bizarre if a French person offers his name card without saying anything to the stranger in the first place. The French tend to take extraordinary precaution to make their name cards simple yet elegant. Exquisitely designed and printed, their name cards are seldom
golden-framed, or colorfully shiny, or tinted with fragrant smells. The letters as appear on their name cards tend to be diminutive but beautiful, not allowing the name of the card-bearer to be overly prominent/salient. The entire card contains much empty space, imparting no sense of over-crowdedness.
15.Four months before the election day, five men gathered in a small conference room at the Reagan-Bush headquarters and reviewed an oversize calendar that marked the remaining days of the 1984 presidential campaign. It was the last Saturday in June and at ten o'clock in the morning the rest of the office was practically deserted. Even so, the men kept the door shut and the drapes carefully drawn. The three principals and their two deputies had come from around the country for a critical meeting. Their aim was to devise a strategy that would guarantee Ronald Reagan's resounding reelection to a second term in the White House. It should have been easy. These were battle-tested veterans with long ties to Reagan and even longer ones to the Republican party, men who understood presidential politics as well as any in the country. The backdrop of the campaign was hospitable, with lots of good news to work with: America was at peace, and the nation's economy, a key factor in any election, was rebounding vigorously after recession. Furthermore, the campaign itself was lavishly financed, with plenty of money for a topflight staff, travel, and television commercials. And, most important, their candidate was Ronald Reagan, a president of tremendous personal popularity and dazzling communication skills. Reagan has succeeded more than any president since John. F. Kennedy in projecting a broad vision of America -a nation of renewed military strength, individual initiative, and smaller federal government.
16.Instead of harassing the monks, the tigers voluntarily stood guard at the gate of the temple. As a reward for it, the monks would place some edibles in front of the gate for the tigers to eat. Towards evening, when the setting sun had dyed half of the sky red, the tigers would come up to the gate in groups to eat their fill and then left slipping and jumping. The monks usually left the gate wide open while peacefully engaged in their daily routine of chanting Buddhist scripture inside the temple. Normally none of their came out to watch the tigers eat. Sometimes, however, one or two monks did appear standing at the gate, but the tigers would remain unalarmed and, taking the monks for their friends, did nothing to harm them. They just kept on eating unhurriedly until they finished and left. Sometimes, when they found，monks at the gate, they would whisk away like the wind after uttering several thunderous roars.
17.In the following year, a formal peace pact was signed. About a month later, Cixi left Xi'an at last. She was utterly fearful of foreigners just as she was extremely arro-gant toward her own countrymen. She stopped far a long time in Henan and halted in Baoding for quite a few days before finally arriving in Beijing. According to unofficial accounts，an amusing episode took place during this long and drawn out journey. When a local official offered a monkey to her as a gift，she was so pleased that she ordered a yellow mandarin jacket to be conferred upon the monkey．later, a eunuch heard some officials complaining that people were considered less worthy than a monkey and went to inform Cixi，who realized that her order had been indeed a little too whimsical. So she issued another edict granting each of the escorting officials a yellow mandarin jacket. Upon the receipt of such an unusual favor the officials did not know whether they should thank Cixi or rather the monkey for it.
18.In extended families, older member's opinion was respected, and the youngest
members are loved and taken good cane of by all. China's constitution stipulates that grown-up children are duty-bound to support their parents. In the cities, couples who do not live with their aged parents give the latter living allowances and help them with the house chores. In the countryside, though quite a number of extended families have dissolved, many marred sons and their families continue to live in the same courtyard with their parents. To them, breaking up the extended family means cooking their meals separately. Married sons most often have their houses built near their parents' Home, making it convenient for parents and children to help and visit each other as be-fore．
19.I couldn't read his countenance without seeing his face．However, judging from what he had said, he was evidently living in a world of his own-bereft of home, love or warmth, and flogged by the scourge of life. But he acted unyieldingly and was filled with bitter hatred. He was using both hands to bear the burden of life. He was never scared or discouraged. He could achieve what children from well-to-do families could "achieve, and he had ideas that they didn't dare to have. Life is a melting pot which hardens the will of children like him so that they are able to withstand the bitterest blows of life ever.
20.All things under heaven and earth are made up of different parts, but the slogan "women are as good as men" makes demands on women without making a correspond-ing demand on men to be "just as good as women"：to raise children just as patiently, to do household chores just as uncomplainingly, to care for the old just as dutifully. Come to think of it, the slogan "women are as good as men" has spurred women on to achievements to challenge men's. But at the same time，women must still do what men do not stoop to. The fact is, "women are as good as men" means that women after doing what women do, must take up another burden. Let's face it, basically women are not as the same as men.
21.After making perennial efforts to measure my exact height, I reached the inescap-able conclusion that I was permanently handicapped. Back in those days, I was a cal-low young chap vastly capable of daring and foolhardiness, and determined to wrestle with this prejudice against men's lack of height. So by hook or by crook, I married a girl who was 1.74 meters in height. Such an astonishing tour de force thus achieved greatly bolstered the morale and esteem of those of us who were "handicapped".But only after the girl was enticed into matrimony did I begin to feel my self-in-flicted anguish. This over-reaction of mine not only failed to put an end to my "perma-nent handicap"，but also gave me lifetime regret. I was deprived of the earthy pleasure of walling with my wife in the street with my strong art around her delicate neck.
22.Starting at Shanhai Pass in the east and ending up at Jiayu Pass in the west, the Great Wall traverses up and down over numerous mountains and valleys in five of China's northern provinces and two autonomous regions. As it extends over a distance of more than 6000 kms, it is called in Chinese the Wanmlichangcheng which means "Ten Thousand Li Long Wall". It is a symbol of intelligence of the working people of old days, and also one of the great architectural miracles in the world. Construction of the wall first began in the 7th century B.C. after Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the Qin Dynasty (221-206BC) achieved the unification of China in 221 B.C... He had the fortification walls of the three kingdoms Qin, Zhao and Yan linked up to be a continuous wall extending more than ten thousand li (a li = 1/2 kms), which formed the essential size of the present-day Great Wall. Since then the later dynasties continued to repair and build the wall. The great wall as it
stands today was restored and reinforced during the Ming Dynasty. The great Wall winds like a giant serpent along the lofty myriad mountains. It is one of the most famous attractions to visitors.
23.The vermillion button on its cap was dazzling, the blue satin cap itself was dazzling, the giant pearl on the brim of the cap was dazzling, the long gown of light blue satin embroidered with intertwined dragons and lined with squirrel fur was dazzling, the cream-colored satin sleeveless jacket was dazzling, the lilac cummerbund was dazzling. and its officials boots with their painted white soles were dazzling, too. Only after everyone crowded around this rainbow, offered it their greetings and enquired its health, could it be observed that its handsome，clean-cut round white face and its coal-black eyes full of mirth were also dazzling. One couldn't make out what this rainbow was saying even though its voice was very clear. Since it was constantly interrupting its. speech with a" hahaha" or an" ahahah"，one could see that its snow-white teeth were dazzling too.
24.Zhu Yuanzhang, the Emperor Taizu of Ming, was a man of the most humble origin，with nothing but his natural ability at his disposal. His parents were poor peasants. Forced to leave their homeland because of famine, they sold their son into a Buddhist monastery to save both his life and their own. After a few years as a novice monk, Zhu ran away and became a bandit．This was a logical step for him to take, considering the great confusion of the age, with revolts breaking out everywhere. Some years later, he ascended the throne in Nanjing and proclaimed the founding of the Ming dynasty, which was to last nearly three hundred yeas.
25.Because of their earnest and down-to-earth approach to work, westerners are, in the eyes of Chinese smarties, next door to idiotic, They are being laughed at by Chinese smarties for the tremendous amount of energy they put into their activities．While westerners go about whatever work they do methodically and patiently，never dreaming of reaching great heights in one step, we Chinese are always given to seeking a shortcut and regard the ability to boast as the master key to it. Boasting is an essential art of life just as hyperbole is an indispensable rhetorical figure．The Tang poet Li Bai's famous lines "The Yellow River comes from the sky" and "My white hair of thirty thousand feet"，examples of hyperbole，which, to those who know little about the art of rhetoric，may sound like a gross exaggeration of the part of the poet.
https://www.doczj.com/doc/4c19188737.html,st week, the United Nations held a World Summit on Food Security. But the three-day meeting in Rome produced only limited measures to fight rising hunger. The U.N. World Food Program says more than a billion people -- one in six worldwide -- do not get enough food to be healthy. The troubled world economy is not the only cause of recent increases. The poorest countries continue to face high food prices, which have fallen elsewhere. The U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization says more than thirty nations continue to need emergency food assistance. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said the food crisis has forced millions of families into poverty and hunger. He said six million children die of hunger every year. And he warned that food security is closely connected to the issue of climate change. BAN KI-MOON: "At a time when the global population is growing, our global climate is changing. By twenty fifty we will need to grow seventy percent more food. Yet weather is becoming more extreme and unpredictable." The delegates in Rome promised to continue efforts to reduce by half the number of hungry people by two thousand fifteen.
But critics pointed out that world leaders made a similar promise more than ten years ago. Several countries promised to increase aid for agriculture, to help developing nations become more independent. Still, critics deplored a lack of greater action. Leaders from more than sixty countries were in Rome. But Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi was the only leader from a major industrial nation in the Group of Eight. An official from Kenya, Adam Barre Duale, said it showed a lack of unity in the fight against hunger. ADAM BARRE DUALE: "We need both the developed world and the developing countries to come together and to give and support a global initiative in the war against hunger." The Food and Agriculture Organization says more than forty billion dollars a year needs to be invested in agriculture to defeat world hunger. The growing problem has affected developing countries, but also industrialized nations. The government estimates that forty-nine million people in the United States were "food insecure" last year. That means their households, at some time during the year, had difficulty providing enough food for all members because of a lack of resources. Almost fifteen percent of all households were in that situation. And the Agriculture Department says the numbers may be even higher this year.
27. A close friend of mine recently underwent tests for leukemia. The most agonizing part of the ordeal, she said, was the week-long wait for the test results. A bad outcome she could learn to cope with, my friend said. It was the not knowing, the uncertainty, that was so difficult. People feel worse when something bad might occur than when something bad will occur,' wrote Harvard psychologist Daniel Gilbert in a recent New York Times op-ed. 'Most of us aren't losing sleep and sucking down Marlboros because the Dow is going to fall another thousand points, but because we don't know whether it will fall or not ─and human beings find uncertainty more painful than the things they're uncertain about.'
28.My husband and I have been married for five years and you can tell by our waistlines. While we're both naturally pretty slim and try to exercise somewhat regularly, we've definitely put on a few pounds since we exchanged vows (that's us in the picture) and since we had our son. (In fact, my toddler's favorite activity these days is squeezing my belly and giggling hysterically. Thanks.) New research, published in the journal Obesity and written about at https://www.doczj.com/doc/4c19188737.html,, found that married couples are twice as likely to become obese as people in romantic relationships who weren't married or living together. The longer couples are married, the greater the risk of gaining weight and becoming obese. The researchers, from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, say when people are living together they share behaviors, such as eating meals together and watching TV. The scientists also note that marriage provides a number of health benefits, including decreased cigarette smoking and lower mortality.
29.Homeward bound after unloading its cargo, a ship ran into a violent storm in the middle of a vast ocean. The seamen were thrown into a panic. Without hesitation, the old but seasoned captain ordered water be poured into the hold immediately. "A mad man, isn't he? He is going to bring his own destruction by filling water into the hold and making the ship go down", grumbled a young sailor.
30.Noticing the captain's stern look, the sailors reluctantly carried out his order. With the water coming up in the hold and the ship going down inch by inch, the threatening of the violent storm to the ship gradually subsided and the ship started to stablize.
31.The captain said to the relieved sailors: "A million ton" ship seldom turns over; it's
often the small ships that sank easily. It's safest when a ship is with load, and the most dangerous when without." This is called the "pressure effect". The man who always muddles through in his work will easily be frustrated in a competitive society just like an unloaded ship that will turned over easily in a storm.
32. A donkey, heavily loaded down, panted to a horse that was lightly laden :"Can you help me carry some of my load ? It is nothing for you but is a big relief for me ." "Why should I do that for you ? I am happy with my light load," said the horse, scowlingly. Soon after, the donkey died of exhaustion. The master transferred everything from the back of the donkey onto the horse, which now deeply regretted its action. An inflated ego blinds us to the fact that we are all living together on the same boat. The fortunes of other affects our well-being. The misfortune of others does not bring us happiness. On the contrary, helping others is in fact, helping ourselves.
33.Once upon a time there lived in a country a do-gooder. The king was very appreciative of his deeds and decided to honour him as a saint by a decree. On the saint's eightieth birthday, the king was invited to his birthday celerbration. He brought with him a painter so as to do a picture of the kindly saint as a paragon for his countrymen. When the feast is over all the guests were asked to have a look at the picture. To their great surprise, when the picture was shown, what they saw was not a kind but a ruthless and cruel look. The king was very angry at seeing this and ordered his men to beat the painter. Upon hearing the noise, the saint rushed to the scene to have a look at the picture. After viewing it, the saint knelt down and said, "your majesty, the person in the picture is none other than me." Why?" said the king, dumbfounded. "This has been the very person whom I have never wanted to be." In this world, there are no naturally born saints; only those who can do self-criticism and sel-examination, can become saints.
34.Mr.Zhang Henshui once wrote up A Man Should Accept Criticisms. In this article, he said, "I seldom deliver paper arguments with people and even write a single word in retort when someone launches a criticism by mentioning my name. Neither does this mean that I am weak, nor over tolerant. I think if I did something wrong, the better way to against defaming is to do self-examination; if it's not my fault, I'd rather air my opinions based on the fact. This may be not practical for other people, but at least it helps me a lot on behaving myself. During the life of my over thirty years writting, some progress I have made mostly benefits from others' criticisms." Mr.Zhang's attitude to criticism is well worthy of intellectuals' following.
35.Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life ---the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and the unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions,like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a deep ocean of anguish, reacing to the very verge of despair. I have sought love, first, because it brings ecstasy -ecstasy so great that I would often have sacrificed all the rest of living for a few hours of this joy. I have sought it, next, because it relieves loneliness -that terrible loneliness in which one shivering consciousness looks over the rim of the world into the cold unfathomable lifeless abyss. I have sought it, finally, because in the union of love I have seen, in a mystic miniature, the prefiguring vision of the heaven that saints and poets have imagined. This is what I sought, and though it might seem too good for human life，this is what, at last, I have found. With equal passion I have sought knowledge. I have wished to
understand the hearts of men. I have wishd to know why the stars shine. And I have tried to apprehend the Pythagorean power by which number holds sway above the flux. A little of this, but not much, I have achieved. Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a hated burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer. This has been my life. I have found it worth living, and would gladly live it again if the chance were offered me.
36.There were two tigers; one lived in a cage and the other in the wild. The caged one didn't have to worry about his meal while the one outside was unrestrained. The caged tiger was always envious of the freedom of the one in the wild, while the other one envied the caged one for his ease. One day, one tiger said to the other: "let's change places". The other one agreeded. Thereupon the caged one went back to nature while the other came into the cage. But before long both died, one of starvation, and the other, melancholy. Sometimes one is not conscious of his own happiness and always thinks the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, but not think over that one man's meat is anoter man's poison.
37.Suddenly everyone is talking about disappearing millionaires. Tuesday there was The Wall Street Journal talking about the vanishing Maryland millionaires. Now comes word that Britain has lost about half its millionaires. The reason isn't emigration or tax revolts. It is personal finances. As I have been writing for the past year, the rich have been hammered by this crisis, largely because of the plunge in the value of their investments and real estate. As a result, the millionaire population (especially the lower end) is taking a dive.
38."Of making books there is no end," complained the Preacher; and did not perceive how highly he was praising letters as an occupation. There is no end, indeed, to making books or experiments, or to travel, or to gathering wealth. Problem gives rise to problem. We may study for ever, and we are never as learned as we would. We have never made a statue worthy of our dreams. And when we have discovered a continent, or crossed a chain of mountains, it is only to find another ocean or another plain upon the further side. In the infinite universe there is room for our swiftest diligence and to spare. It is not like the works of Carlyle, which can be read to an end. Even in a corner of it, in a private park, or in the neighbourhood of a single hamlet, the weather and the seasons keep so deftly changing that although we walk there for a lifetime there will be always something new to startle and delight us.
39.The old lady had always been proud of the great rose-tree in her garden, and was fond of telling how it had grown from a cutting she had brought years before from Italy, when she was first married. She and her husband had been travelling back in their carriage from Rome ( it was before the time of railways ) and on a bad piece of road south of Siena they had broken down, and had been forced to pass the night in a little house by the road-side. The accommodation was wretched of course; she had spent a sleepless night, and rising early had stood, wrapped up, at her window, with the cool air blowing on her face, to watch the dawn. She could still, after all these years, remember the blue mountains with the bright moon above them, and how a far-off town on one of the peaks had gradually grown whiter and whiter, till the moon faded, the mountains were touched with the pink of the rising sun,
and suddenly the town was lit as by an illumination, one window after another catching and reflecting the sun' beam, till at last the whole little city twinkled and sparkled up in the sky like a nest of stars.
40.Again, when you have married your wife, you would think you were got upon a hilltop, and might begin to go downward by an easy slope. But you have only ended courting to begin marriage. Falling in love and winning love are often difficult tasks to overbearing and rebellious spirits; but to keep in love is also a business of some importance, to which both man and wife must bring kindness and goodwill. The true love story commences at the altar, when there lies before the married pair a most beautiful contest of wisdom and generosity, and a life-long struggle towards an unattainable ideal. Unattainable? Ay, surely unattainable, from the very fact that they are two instead of one.
41.We live in an ascending scale when we live happily, one thing leading to another in an endless series. There is always a new horizon for onward-looking men, and although we dwell on a small planet, immersed in petty business and not enduring beyond a brief period of years, we are so constituted that our hopes are inaccessible, like stars, and the term of hoping is prolonged until the term of life. To be truly happy is a question of how we begin and not of how we end, of what we want and not of what we have.
42.On Sunday, Ms. Chan held teleconferences with staff and flu experts around the world but stopped short of recommending specific measures to halt the disease beyond urging governments to step up their surveillance of suspicious outbreaks.
43.Long before the emergence of the written word, ballads, accompanied by music and dance,and myths, passed around by word of mouth, were widely popular. Chinese literature finds its origins in these traditions. However, ballads were what people improvised out of daily life, and due to lack of means to record and preserve them in ancient times, they quickly disappeared without leaving much of a trace. Today, we can only deduce their existence from ancient books, which recorded some time-honored ballads, though most of these are belived to be derivatives of later generations. Ballads in the Book of Songs are the earliest writings that can be dated. From this point of view, ancient mythology obviously has had a great influence on Chinese literature.

1．作弊在美国大学里被认为是一大问题，如何对付它已成为教师会议上的热点话题。有些教授说他们已不再要求学生写学期论文，因为许多学生购买事先写好的文章。同时还有些学校的教师已经决定对日益泛滥的作弊风采取不只是口头上的行动。不少教育者感到当学生对自己及他们的能力的信心增强时，他们就不太会去作弊。大多数学生拍手欢迎教师们狠刹作弊风的策略，有篇校报社论说，如同警察抓超速行驶者一样，打击作弊并非是为了抓住谁，而只是为了抓一儆百。 2．最近世界卫生组织（World Health Organization）宣布由于人们普遍接种牛痘（widespread vaccination）天花（smallpox）这种疾病几乎已经在全球大部分地区匿迹，这主要归功于1789年左右一位名叫爱德华.杰纳（Edward Jenner）的乡村医生的引人注目的发现。当时他发表了关于“接种牛痘”新方法的实验经过。杰纳发现同牲畜打交道的人们，如挤奶女工和看牛人，常从牲畜身上感染一种叫做牛痘（cowpox）的病。这种病对人无害，但这些人却似乎因此而从不得天花。于是他就在健康人的手臂上划一道道，然后染上牛痘。虽然他们的手臂会疼上一两天，但它们很快就愈合了，而且没有一个人得天花。这一神奇的发现很快就传到了国外，数以千计的人都使用了在手臂上划道道的简单做法。可怕的天花从此开始消失。 3．一百多年前，生物进化论的奠基人达尔文早就揭开了自然界中的生物链（biological chain）之谜。自然界中的各种物质在生态系统的循环中，都扮演着特定的角色。一旦各物种数量的恰当比例被破坏，生态系统就会出现失衡现象。自从人类从动物界解放出来以后，就成了大自然的主宰。但是人类纵然能上天入地，移山填海，却一刻也不能摆脱对动物的依赖，不能从自然界的生物链中挣脱出来。因为人类本身就是这个无形链中的一环。为了让生命的春色永驻，我们应更加珍惜爱护已不堪重创的地球，珍惜经过漫长进化发展而成的生命，尤其是那些濒临灭绝的珍稀动物。这应该是我们全人类的共同责任。 4．想理解计算机如何工作，不经专门训练是无法办到的，然而许多未受过科学训练的人们在日常生活中都使用计算机。在美国许多中小学里，年幼的儿童每天都有部分课程由计算机授课。 学校里使用计算机使一些美国人感到忧虑，有人害怕它会除去师生关系中的人情成分（remove the human element）；有些教师担心它会夺取他们的“饭碗”。另一方面，有些教育工作者却认为计算机辅助教学（computer assisted instruction）是一种很有价值的办法，它把教师从乏味、辛苦的任务中解放出来，从而使他们有更多的时间同学生个别交流。 在教育界，正如在工商、科学、医药界一样，计算机几乎在各类运作中发挥重要作用。将来计算机技术与应用还会有重要进步，这些进步将帮助人类努力改进世界。 5．有人会说，苏格拉底，你的生活道路可能让你过早地结束你的生命，难道你不为此感到遗憾（be ashamed of）？对他我可能会回答，你错了，一个有价值的人不该计较（calculate）自己生存或死亡的机会，他只应考虑自己在做任何事情时是否做得对。假如你们说，只要我不再钻研，思考（speculate）我的思想，你们就会放我，那么我回答，雅典人，我尊重你们，热爱你们，但我将听命于上帝而不是你：只要我有生命，有力量，我将永不停止我的哲学的研究和教学，你们的金钱，荣誉堆积如山（heap up），而你们对智慧、真理，灵魂的升华（improvement）却如此冷漠。难道你们不为此感到遗憾吗？ 6．美国大学生活中一个不同寻常的特点是它的竞争性。同一层次的院校为师资、研究资金、学生、公众注意及其他许多方面而相互竞争。例如哈佛与斯坦福，为招收学生而积极争夺，令东京（Tokyo）大学、京都（Kyoto）大学之类的院校都感到不可思议。因为在那里入学考试决定一切。一个大学用高薪或更优越的工作条件雇请另一所大学的教授，在这方面美国也是独树一帜的。在日本，大学几乎清一色地（exclusively）雇用自己的毕业生。世界其他地区虽不及日本那么单一，但也基本如此。“同系繁殖”（inbreeding）触目皆是，和美

Back in America, an article published last month in the journal Neurology showed that smoking cannabis relieved chronic HIV-associated nerve pain—a condition that is often impervious to other treatments. 18. For global couples—born in different countries, married in a third, now working somewhere else and with children, pensions and other assets sprinkled over the world—a contested divorce is bliss for lawyers and a nightmare for others.
