PartIIEnglish-ChineseTranslation(5*4=20分)(方老师提供:
标答)
1.如果我们的时间使用得当,就能生产出有用和重要的产品,在市场上买得一定的价钱;
或者充实我们的经验,增长我们的才干,待到适当时机我们就能挣到金钱。
2.我们想到死便震惊不已,因而不惜一切努力、麻烦和费用以保全生命。
可是我们对于损失一个钟头或者一天时间往往漠不关心,忘记生命原来就是我们生活的每一天、每一小时的总和。
3.现在如果从我们的寿命中减去所有这些岁月,我们将发现,能让我们用于有效工作的时间大概是15或20年左右。
谁能记住这一点,就不会心甘情愿地浪费他生命的每时每刻。
4.如果我们让生命的早晨时光悄悄溜走而未加利用,我们将永远无法弥补这种损失。
等我们长大了,获得知识的能力就变得迟钝了,因此在童年和青年时期没能获得的知识或技能将永远不能获得了。
