15、tant;ninety-year-oldpeople can feel and act like fifty year olds if they have the rightattitude to life.Somebody might say this to cheer another person up to encourage theperson to feel better about himself or herself.The speaker probably has an optimistic(and young)feeling about life.2.Forty isnt o

16、ld,ifs simply a ttbirth into a new stage of life.It might be said to some one approaching his or her forties birthday.He or she doesnt fear to be forty,doesnt think forty is old,andthinks of“middle age“as being the beginning of an interesting stageof life when he or she can do new things.3.Years are

17、nt important;preserving youthful idealism is moreimportant In a debate about the problem of aging,for example.Youthful ideals should be kept throughout the whole life;if you keepthese ideals,you can stay long in your attitude.4.Young people anticipate the future with the pleasure;older peoplereminis

18、ce about their youth.Perhaps in a situation when someone is reflecting seriously aboutlife.Its a philosophical,analytical comment about attitudes.5.Age is not important;your attitude towards your age and life ingeneral is crucial.In a situation to encourage somebody to be more optimistic towardslife

19、.The speaker is almost certainly optimistic;the suggestion is thatthere are many ways to be old and some of them are good.6.Be virtuous when you are young if you want respect later in life.Perhaps in a context where an older person wants to give friendlyadvice to a youngster when a younger person is

20、 wondering about thecourse of action.The speaker sees a direct link between actions in youth and theconsequences in later life.7.Youngsters only have opinions;their elders know the truth throughexperience.Perhaps in a social setting where people from different generationsare teasing each other The s

21、peaker almost certainly belongs to the older generation and isconfident of his or her own superior knowledge.8.The only alternative is to die because you can not become youngagain.As a joke or a humorous comment,perhaps after someone has saidsomething negative about being old.He or she certainly vie

22、ws aging in a positive light.9.An old person who is loved has an extra bonus because lovebrightens their life;old age is like the winter of a persons life,butwinter also has its beautiful or bright aspects,like flowers.Perhaps it would be said to an older person,to remind him or her oflifes blessing

23、.Its a comment reflecting both joy and sadness;it recognizes thatsome old people enjoy the love of family,friends,neighbors,etc.Butsome are alone and lonely10.Young people 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

24、 essay.The author seems to have some optimismabout being fifty.It is a reference to different perspectives,different attitudes ofvarious ages to age.11.People may think that being old is a misery,but having the years ofexperience old people help you to live your life in a better way.Analternative in

25、terpretation is that it is not simply the old age whichmakes old people feel miserable.It is the accumulation of theirexperiences which make them miserable.The second interpretation ofa rather wry joke.Perhaps either as a joke or as a serious(but pessimistic)comment oflife,almost certainly made by a

26、n older person.It could reflect a humorous,philosophical,non-serious view;or theopposite,a mournful cry.12.Experience(living long)teaches us how to live well.Again,perhaps it is more likely to be written than spoken.Experience over many years is seen as blessings and benefits.13.Enjoy your youth and

27、 make the most of the opportunities whichcome your way;then,when you are older,you dont have any regretsthat you wasted it.An older person-perhaps a parent to a younger people;thecomment shows wry humor by suggesting that the mainpreoccupation older people in that they lament their lost youth.He/She

28、 sees youth as priceless and not to be wasted.14.The general,meaning is that people change as they grow older.thespecific meaning of each stage depends on how people understand themetaphors of the animals(and this varies in different cultures).Alikely Spanish interpretation is:at twenty people are c

29、oncerned withtheir appearance,at thirty they are brave,at forty they carry heavyburdens,at fifty they twist and turn and cant be trusted,at sixty theyare 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.Nowit could be said b

30、y anybody au any stage but probably originally itwas written by an older person.Perhaps it reflects a cynical attitude to the way peopledevelop.perhaps students might here be asked to explain what each ofthe different creatures at the various stages of life represents inChinese or other culture.15.T

31、he tide ebbs(i.e.its strength and power is lessened)and humanbeings get older and become less strong.The tide returns as strong asever 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,canrationalize and see that there is

33、row up to become adults and what happens in childhood isvitally important because adults develop on the basis of their childhood.Just as a child inherits genetics from their parents,the stage of earlychildhood for an individual is the social“inheritance“of each adult-this is the basis for the develo

34、pment of the rest of their life(when thechild becomes“the man).Parents have children who grow up;however,children also grow up to become parents,who have children in their turnwho also become parents.Bad is never good until worse happens.When something bad happens it is difficult to see anything goo

35、d aboutit.But when something even worse happens,what we thought was badbefore doesnt look so bad after all.Of course,what is“worse“may alsoseem not so bad when something worse still happens!Our perceptions ofwhat are bad or good events are relative to their events.Everything changes except change it

36、self.Change is in everything.Only the law that everything changes does notchange.On the other hand,if everything changes this should includechange itself(the nature of particular changes should change or even thevery nature of change itself.)If change changes then this must include nochange which wo

37、uld be a change from changing.If change does notchange,then there is something to which the law of change does notapply which means that not everything changes.All rules have exceptions,including this one.A rule is general statement.It may include everything in its scope or itmay have its exceptions

38、.The problem here is that if the rule is that”allrules have exceptions”,then there are exceptions to the rule that”allrules have exceptions”:does this mean that the rule isnt a rule or that theexception isnt an exception or that the exception to the rule that“all ruleshave exceptions means that ther

39、e are no exceptions.including theexceptions to the rule that“all rules have exceptions.?A sadist is a person who is kind to a masochist.A sadist is someone who gets pleasure from hurting or being cruel tosomeone else.A masochist is someone who gets pleasure from being hurt.We expect the sadist to be

40、 nasty to others,including being nasty to themasochist.But the sadist knows that the masochist wants to be hurt,sobeing kind to the masochist(who expects to be hurt by the sadist)is away for the sadist to get pleasure.The problem now is that the sadist isgetting pleasure by not hurting someone(which

41、 means that the sadistisnt being a sadist,)A second problem is that the masochist may begetting pleasure by anticipating being hurt(which he enjoys and looksforward to)and may therefore be getting pleasure from the kindness ofthe sadist(who as the masochist knows,wants to hurt themasochist)because h

42、e anticipates being hurt by not being hurt yet(whichmeans that the masochist isnt being a masochist).Nothing is enough for the person to whom enough is too little.Some people are greedy.They want more than others.they want morethan the amount which would satisfy others(and be enough for them).Sofor

43、the greedy person“enough”(for others)is always too little(for thegreedy one).So there is never“enough and nothing is enough“fbr thegreedy person;this means there is no“enough”.But the problem is that itmay also mean that if greedy person has“nothing”.It is“enough”(because“nothing is enough),in which

44、 case the person is not greedy andis,in fact,satisfied with nothing(since he has“nothing“which is“enough).If the rich could hire other people to die for them,the poor couldmake a wonderful living.Everybody die at some time.Rich people may wish to keep on livingbecause they have lots of money to enjo

45、y their life.So if the rich peoplecould pay poor people to die for them,then the rich people could keep onliving for longer and keep on enjoying their life.The poor would make aliving(i.e.,earn money to live)by dying instead of the rich.Ofcourse,paying one poor person to die instead of the rich pers

46、on who isdying would not be enough because death is always waiting(foreverybody,rich or poor),so the rich would have to keep on paying moreand more poor people to die for them-otherwise they can onlypostpone death for a short time.So now,many poor people die(paid forby the rich)but the others who ar

47、e still living get rich(keeping the moneywhich their dead poor relatives received from the rich).But these newrich people(who were poor before)will die unless they pay poorpeople to die for them.If they do so,the poor relatives of those poor oneswho die for the new rich will themselves eventually be
