【正文】 cause new machines can do the work of many people in a shorter time. Also, machines do not ask for more money and longer holidays. In all of the countries of the world machines are taking work from people, not only in factories but also on the farms. One machine can often do the work of forty percent of people. About 75,000 people are moving to the cities a day to look for jobs, but only 70% of them can find jobs. 大多數(shù)人想要工作，但在當(dāng)今世界每個(gè)人都找到工作已成為很大困難。此外，機(jī)器不會(huì)要求更多的工資和較長的假期。P325 (6)On Thursday morning, more than 100 citizens in Nanjing, the capital of East China’s Jiangsu Province, donated blood at a local station as a result of the local promotion campaign of the country’s blood donation law which took effect late last year. Some percent of the blood in the local supply(供應(yīng)) centre has been donated, pared with last year where a large amount of blood was purchased(購買). As many as 12,000 local people have freely donated their blood so far, ensuring(保證) an abundant supply for use in local hospitals. 周四早上，在中國東部江蘇省省會(huì)南京，100多名市民在當(dāng)?shù)??電視臺獻(xiàn)血，以作為去年年底生效的國家獻(xiàn)血法的本地宣傳活動(dòng)。今天，也可以從廣播節(jié)目，電視節(jié)目和電話熱線得到咨詢。大多數(shù)熱線通常也是免費(fèi)的。顧問通常是有多年教育和經(jīng)驗(yàn)的專業(yè)人士，但有時(shí)候，顧問在開始熱線電話工作以前只經(jīng)過短期培訓(xùn)。 星期一9:21艾倫？艾倫，如果你在家里一樣，請接電話。我希望這次你找到一個(gè)很好的理由。普林斯先生希望你知道這個(gè)會(huì)議很重要。我在國際電腦游戲博覽會(huì)上看到你的游戲“殺敵！”。我的手機(jī)號碼是0277417 6130800。再見?！翱帷笨梢杂脕肀磉_(dá)對幾乎所有的東西感興趣的感覺。你可以用它代替許多話，比如老師要求她的學(xué)生描寫他們觀賞過的瀑布。不用“酷”，有些人就沒有詞語來表達(dá)同樣的意思。在美國近半數(shù)的人口是二十五歲以下的青少年。他們對創(chuàng)造一個(gè)美好生活感興趣。P332 (11)“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other, but when a person says “How are you?” he expects() to hear the answer “Fine,” even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question, and “fine” isn’t really an answer. They are mon ways of saying “Hello” and “Hi”.Sometimes people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks, “Do you agree?” the other person may be thinking. “No, I don’t agree. I think you are wrong.” But it doesn’t sound very polite, so he may say, “I’m not so sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking. For example, when a person wants to finish talking with other people on the phone, he may say “I have to go now”. Sometimes he often gives an excuse, “Someone is at the door”, “Something is burning” so on. The excuse may be real, or it may not. It’s a polite way to stop a conversation and it doesn’t hurt the other person’s feeling. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s a part of the game of language. “你好嗎？“是一個(gè)友善的問題。有時(shí)候，人們不是精確地說出他們的意思?！安贿^，這聽上去不是很有禮貌，所以他可能會(huì)說，”我不那么肯定?！庇袝r(shí)候，他常常給出一個(gè)借口，“有人在門口”，“有東西燒糊了”等。P333 (12)It isn’t strictly true that one half of the world is rich and the other half is poor. It’s one third that is very rich and towthirds that are very poor.People in the rich countries don’t understand the great difference between them and those in the poorer countries. A very simple is that a dog or a cat in North America eats better than a child in the poorer countries. A fisherman is South America may be catching fish which is made into pet food, and his own children are not getting enough to eat for their bodies to grow properly.Although a lot of the world’s natural resources(資源) like oil e from these poorer countries, people in the richer countries are using about sixty times as much of these resources as people in Asia of Africa. And it’s the richer countries that deicide that kind of prices they are ready to pay for these resources. And the process the richer countries get for their own exports(出口), however, are always rising. So they are getting richer and richer and the poorer countries are getting poorer. 世界上一半是富人，另一半是窮人，這不完全正確。一個(gè)南美漁民可能把捕到的魚制成寵物食品，而他自己的孩子得不到足夠的身體正常生長所需的東西吃。因此，他們越來越富，窮國越來越窮。有時(shí)候一個(gè)地方的良好舉止在其他地方是很不禮貌的舉止。一些東非人吐四次作為一種祝福。當(dāng)我們見到某人，我們說“你好”和“你好嗎”之類的東西。 在一個(gè)阿拉伯村莊，訪客要在所有帳篷的背后行走，直到他找到??一個(gè)他想要訪問的帳
