24、ouse with two young Americans, Jim, and Steve. Jim was studying French and Steve Chinese, both at the Foreign Service Institute. We shared many things in common, but we also thought and acted quite differently. Steve was interested in speaking Chinese. He always tried every opportunity to talk with

25、me with his very English-like pronunciation. I was often touched with his diligence. However, I wanted to practice English with him, too. So we often speak at the same time in the others mother tongue. Jim was fresh from college and the youngest of the three. He was going out all the time. The only

26、time we met was at breakfast. There was a small round table in our kitchen, where we sat around to enjoy our food. Steve had Chinese fast food such as dumplings or noodles, and I ate bread and boiled eggs. But Jim often just drank a cup of tea because he had nothing in his bridge. He was too busy da

27、ting pretty French girls to do any shopping. I often offered him some of my food. But Steve told me in his poor Chinese that I didnt need to do that. He said that it was Jims own fault and that it served him right. Although he was learning Chinese, he still held his American sense of value. Two year

28、s later, I returned to china. The three of us still keep in touch. Jim now works in a travel agency in Paris. He got married to one of the pretty girls. He wrote to tell us that now he can enjoy a delicious breakfast with his beautiful wife every morning in their comfortable living room. Steve wants

29、 to work in china. And Im helping him with this. I have introduced him to the dean of the Overseas Section of our university. He is very interested in Steve.

Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasti

35、ng his time in useless regrets. Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities. If a child has good parents, he is well fed, looked after and loved. It is unlikely that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always prese

36、nting new things to the child things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. But a child has his pains:He is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong. Therefore, a child

37、is not happy as he wishes to be. When the young man starts to earn his own living, he becomes free from discipline of school and parents; but at the same time he is forced to accept responsibilities. With no one to pay for his food, his clothes, or his room, he has to work if he wants to live comfor

38、tably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may get himself into trouble. If, however, he works hard,goes by the law and has good health, he may feel

39、satisfied in seeing himself make steady progress in his job and in building up for himself his own position in society. Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be; but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. With old age comes wisdom and the ability to help others with advice w

40、isely given. The old can have the joy of seeing their children making progress in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them; and, perhaps best of all, they can, if their life has been a useful one, fell the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of havin

Enjoy life in different age D. Wish to be grown upThe word “they”underlined in Line 5, para. 2 refers to _. A. Ol

42、der people B. New things C. Children D. Interests68. A child has his pains because_. . A. He can not do whatever he wants to B. He is not allowed to play in rain C.

43、e comfortably B. Take responsibilities C. Make progress in job D. Impress the societyThe best title of the passage might be _. A. Pains and Ages B. Differences in Ages C. The Best Age to Be D. Happiness and Ages Passage Three Life really should be one long journey of joy for children who are born wi

44、th a world of wealth at their tiny feet.But experts on psychological research now believe that silver spoons can leave a bitter taste. If suicide statistics are a sign of happiness, then the rich are a miserable lot. Figures show that it is the rich who most often do away with themselves. Dr. Robert

45、 Coles, an internationally famous doctor, is the worlds top expert on the influence of money on children. He has written a well-received book on the subject, The Privileged Ones, and his research shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little. Obviously there are ce

46、rtain advantages to being rich,” says the 53-year-old doctor, such as better health, education and future work expectation. But most important is the quality of family life. Money cant buy love.” It can buy a lot of other things, though, and thats where the trouble starts. Rich kids have so much to

47、choose from that they often become confused. Their parentsover favoring can make them spoiled. They tend to travel more than other children, from home to home and country to country, which often makes them feel restless. “But privileged children do have a better sense of their positions in the world

48、,” adds Mr. Coles, “and they are more self-assured.” Todays rich parents perhaps have realized that their riches can be more of a burden than a favor to their children. So their priority is to ensure that their families are as rich in love as they are in money. 71.Accordingtothepassage,childrenofric
