No, aging cannot be prevented but people who take dietary supplements ( especially those which destroy free radical molecules) may feel more energetic.Q3A3. Yes, because scientists believe that extending the human life span might well lead to
23、 serious negative effects.Q4A4.Yes, it is. The aging process is important in fighting cancer, because proteins which destroy cancer cells also cause aging.Q5A5. Yes, they are very important. Research shows that healthy food, low stress and an outdoor lifestyle are best for long life.Part C: Contexts
24、 and implicationsEnglish Proverbs 1. You are as old as you feel. Your feelings about yourself are very important; ninety-year-old people can feel and act like fifty year olds if they have the right attitude to life. Somebody might say this to cheer another person up or to encourage the person to fee
25、l better about himself or herself. The speaker probably has an optimistic ( and young ) feeling about life.2. Life begins at forty. Forty isnt old , its simply a birth into a new stage of life. It might be said to someone approaching his or her fortieth birthday. He or she doesnt fear being forty, d
26、oesnt think forty is old, and thinks of middle age as being the beginning of an interesting stage of life when he or she can do new things.3. Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years; people grow old by deserting their ideals. Years arent important; preserving youthful idealism is more im
27、portant. In a debate about the problems of aging , for example. Youthful ideals should be kept throughout the whole of life; if you keep these ideals, you can stay young in your attitude.4. Youth looks forward but age looks back. Young people anticipate the future with pleasure; older people reminis
28、ce about their youth. Perhaps in a situation when someone is reflecting seriously about life. Its a philosophical, analytical comment about attitudes.5. Its not how old you are, but how you are old. Age is not important; your attitude towards your age and life in general is crucial. In a situation t
29、o encourage somebody to be more optimistic towards life. The speaker is almost certainly optimistic; the suggestion is that there are many ways to be old and some of them are good.6. He that in youth no virtue uses, in age all honor him refuses. Be virtuous when you are young if you want respect lat
30、er in life. Perhaps in a context where an older person wants to give friendly advice to a youngster when the younger person is wondering about the right course of action. The speaker sees a direct link between actions in youth and the consequences in later life.7. Young folk think old folk are fools
31、, but old folk know young folk are fools. Youngsters only have opinions; their elders know the truth through experience. Perhaps in a social setting where people from different generations are teasing each other. The speaker almost certainly belongs to the older generation and is confident of his or
32、 her own superior knowledge.8. Old age doesnt seem so bad when you consider the alternative. The only alternative is to die-because you cannot become young again. As a joke or a humorous comment, perhaps after someone has said something negative about being old. He /She certainly views aging in a po
33、sitive light.9. An old person loved is winter with flowers. (German ) An old person who is loved has an extra bonus because love brightens their life; old age is like the winter of a persons life, but winter also has its beautiful or bright aspects, like flowers. Perhaps it would be said to an older
34、 person, to remind him /her of lifes blessings. Its a comment reflecting both joy and sadness; it recognizes that some old people enjoy the love of family, friends, neighbours, etc., but some are alone and lonely.10. Forty is the old age of youth, fifty is the youth of old age. ( French ) Young peop
35、le see forty as old , but older people see fifty as young . This is perhaps more likely to be written rather than spoken -perhaps in an essay. The writer seems to have some optimism about being fifty. It is a reference to different perspectives, different attitudes of various ages to age .11. Old ag
36、e is not misery, experience helps. (Greek ) People may think that being old is a misery, but having the years of experience of old people helps you to live your life in a better way. An alternative interpretation is that it is not simply old age which makes older people miserable, it is the accumula
37、tion of their experiences which make them miserable. The second interpretation is a rather wry joke. Perhaps either as a joke or as a serious (but pessimistic) comment on life, almost certainly made by an old person. It could reflect a humorous, philosophical, non-serious view; or the opposite, a mo
38、urnful cry.12. By living long we learn to live. (Italian ) Experience (living long) teaches us how to live well. Again, perhaps it is more likely to be written than spoken. Experiences over many years are seen as blessings and benefits.13. If one knew the value of youth, there would be little to lam
39、ent in old age. (Turkish ) Enjoy your youth and make the most of the opportunities which come your way; then, when you are older, you wont have any regrets that you wasted it. An older person - perhaps a parent - to a younger people; the comment also shows wry humour by suggesting that the main preo
40、ccupation of older people is that they lament their lost youth. He / She sees youth as priceless and not to be wasted.14. At twenty a person will be a peacock, at thirty a lion, at forty a camel, at fifty a snake, at sixty a dog, at seventy a monkey, and at eighty nothing at all. (Spanish ) The gene
41、ral meaning is that people change as they grow older. The specific meaning of each stage depends on how people understand the metaphors of the animals (and this varies in different cultures). A likely Spanish interpretation is: at twenty people are concerned with their appearance, at thirty they are
42、 brave, at forty they carry heavy burdens, at fifty they twist and turn and cant be trusted, at sixty they are loyal, at seventy they are wise, at eighty they are nothing. As its rather long, it is more likely to be part of a written paper. Now it could be said by anybody at any stage but probably o
43、riginally it was written by an older person. Perhaps it reflects a cynical attitude to the way people develop. Perhaps students might here be asked to explain what each of the different creatures at the various stages of life represent in Chinese or other cultures.15. Ebbtide has come to me as to th
44、e sea, Old age makes me bleed, Though I may sorrow over this, The tide returns happily. (Irish) The tide ebbs (i.e. its strength and power is lessened) and human beings get older and become less strong. This makes me feel sad; but the sea is not sad because after it ebbs, the tide returns as strong
45、as ever and other people are young and their tide is rising. Spoken or read in a poem. Perhaps said by someone who, though he/she feels sad, can rationalize and see that there is no reason to be sad.Extending your vocabularySynonyms and word classesWords Words from Text Word Class1.discovery ( parag
