14．随着时间的推移，我被弄得越来越小．As time went by，I was made smaller and smaller．

分析 考查汉译英，这是一个时间状语从句．

解答 答案：As time went by，I was made smaller and smaller．因为两个句子是主从关系，所以用As引导了时间状语从句．这是对过去的事情的描述，所以用一般过去时，越来越…用了"more and more"．

点评 词句也可以翻译成：With time going by，I was made smaller and smaller．with是介词，后面用动名词．

As we all know，the same body language may have different meaning in different cultures．If we don't use body language proper，we may be misunderstanding．
Last year I have a holiday in Thailand．I was walking in the street while I saw a boy fall down．I quickly ran over，helped him stand up and patted him head．Surprisingly he seemed very much angry and walked away．I had meant to comfort him with the way we Chinese usually do．Later，know that it's impolite to pat a child's head in Thailand，I felt embarrassed．
Obviously body language is important part of international communication．
2．Dogs are（61）a very popular pet．Most of them just live with their families．But some dogs have very special jobs （62）to do （do）．A group of dogs（63）are known （know）as"Therapy Dogs"．These dogs are family pets with special training，（64）which allows them to go into public buildings and comfort people （65）in need．The dogs are trained to be calm and quiet．Loud noises and unfamiliar places don't frighten them．They enjoy spending time with people．
Some therapy dogs go into places，such as hospitals and nursing homes．When the dogs visit the patients，the patients are cheered up．They have fun （66）petting  （pet） the dogs and look forward to their visits．The dogs help to brighten their day．Therapy dogs can improve people's health as well．Studies show that when people pet animals，their blood（67）pressure  （press） and heart rates go down．They are calmer and（68）their （they） mood improves．
Other therapy dogs work in schools and libraries．They serve as warm and caring （69）friends （friend） to children，but they also do（70）more  （much）．In one town in California，therapy dogs have become children's reading buddies．The dogs make a great audience．The children look forward to reading to the dogs，and the dogs love the attention．

19．Happy birthday!Does birthday really make people happy？（71）A Birthday celebrates the day when we were born．Candles on the cake suggest another year of growth-or so we hope．Most of us enjoy seeing the wonder of growth in others，as well．For instance，seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud．For Americans，like people in most cultures，growing up is a wonderful process．But growing old？（72）B
Growing old is not exactly for people in youth-oriented （以年轻人为中心） American culture．Most Americans like to look young，act young and feel young．（73）F  Older people joke about how many years young they are，rather than how many years old．
Many older Americans find the"golden years"to be anything but golden．Economically，"senior citizens"often struggle just to get by．Retirement at the age of 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income．Social security benefits usually cannot make up the difference．Older people may suffer from poor nutrition，medical care，and housing．（74）E
Unfortunately，the elderly population in America is increasing fast．Why？（75）C  Fewer babies are being born．And middle-aged"baby boomers"are rapidly entering the group of the elderly．America may soon be a place where wrinkles （皱纹） are"in"．Marketing experts are ready noticing this growing group of consumer．

A．Of course they do．
B．That is a different story．
C．People are living longer．
D．But many people dont think so．
E．Some even experience age discrimination．
F．As the old saying goes，"Youre young as you feel．"
G．Because the Americans enjoy their own way of life．
6．What is it that makes people laugh？More than two thousand years ago the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle defined （定义） jokes as the pleasure that results from a feeling of triumph（胜利） by showing we're better than someone else in a certain way．According to Aristotle and many other philosophers，all jokes depend mainly on showing inferiority in another person or group of persons-that is，putting it clearly，on showing that they are worse off than ourselves．Jokes raise our good opinion of ourselves at someone else's expense．
Showing how much better than other people we are is only one reason we like jokes．Someone may also use a joke to express their anger or their cruelty or any other kind of action that is not acceptable to us．We feel free to laugh when we hear about someone sliding on a banana skin．The joke lets us express those attitudes which are usually unacceptable to society．This is probably the reason why some of the jokes，especially those involving cruelty，are so popular with certain people．
Besides，all jokes depend on our enjoyment of laughing at something that is strange and out of place because it's different from things which are happening around it．The same situation can be either sad or pleasant，depending entirely on how strange and out of place it is．If a girl in a bathing suit falls into a swimming pool，we don't laugh because nothing unusual has happened．But if a man in a smart suit falls in，the situation is at once unusual in a pleasant way and we laugh．A good joke-teller will always try to build up a situation in which one thing is expected until something unexpected suddenly happens，and so we laugh．

4．I learned Japanese a few years ago．I can say that learning a language is a huge challenge to me．（26）BHere are a few tips from experts which can help you become fluent．
Know why you're studying a language．
Learning a language is not something you can just pick up and put away as you please．As Language Testing International points out，some languages can take up to 2，760 hours to learn well．Even easier languages，like French and Spanish，will take 720 hours．No one can do that much work on their own without serious motivation （动力）．（27）EWrite it down where you can see it to keep yourself motivated．
Practice．
You can't just do a lot of practice for one day and then take three days off．（28）F Set a regular schedule and stick to it．If you can make learning a language a routine（常规，惯例），the battle is partly won．
Speak with native speakers．
Talking with a native speaker is the single best way to improve your language skills．But how can you find one？（29）G Also ask your friends and family to see if they know someone who speaks your aim language
（30）A
A language represents people and their culture．If you don't value the people or the culture，then you don't value the language．So make efforts to learn about the native culture if you want to know the native language．Films and TV shows are a good place to start．Newspapers and news shows can also teach you what the people you are studying are interested in．

A．Look into the foreign culture．
B．But it is also quite worthwhile．
C．Don't be afraid of making mistakes．
D．No one can master every word in a language．
E．So make sure you have a real reason to learn a language．
F．The knowledge you learn in one day will be forgotten in those few days．
G．Websites，like italki and weSpeke，can help you connect with others across the globe．

Dr．Petrels produces and performs in his own show every week．The program is very popular with his patients and with people who enjoy his singing．His dream is to perform（表演） in Las Vegas．His favorite songs are love songs，and he has a compact disk of love songs that he wote．Dr．Petrels says，"I always loved to sing．All my problems are gone when I sing．"But when Dr．Petrels was young，his father didn't want him to be a singer，so he went to medical school．
Some people tellDr．Petrels he can help people more as a doctor．But Dr．Petrels says he helps people when he sings，too．"I like to make people smile．Sometimes it's difficult to make a sick person smile．Medicine and entertainment（娱乐） both try to do the same thing．They try to make people feel good．"
