　　IV.Paragraph Translation (30 points)

　　A.Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese. (15 points)

　　46.Psychologically there are two dangers to be guarded against in old age. One of these is undue absorption in the past. It does not do to live in memories, in regrets for the good old days, or in sadness about friends who are dead.One’s thought must be directed to the future, and to things about which there is something to be done. This is not always easy; one’s own past is a gradually increasing weight. It is easy to think to oneself that one’s emotions used to be more vivid than they are, and one’s mind more keen. …

　　The other thing to be avoided is clinging to youth in the hope of sucking vigour from its vitality. ⋯Animals become indifferent to their young as soon as their young can look after themselves, but human beings, owing to the length of infancy, find this difficult.

　　B.Directions: Translate the following passage into English. (15 points)

　　47.家里最大的是我，才十三岁，就唱戏养家了。真是一个钱撕成八瓣用，心里总想着怎样能够改善家里的困境。早晨去喊嗓子，我带着一个小篮拾煤核，为了回家取暖。拾煤核也要放聪明点儿，常常换换地方，为的不受那些野男孩子的欺负。那些男孩子是成群结队的拾煤核，我是一个人，怕被他们欺负，我用换地方的办法，躲着他们。他们看见女孩拾煤核就捣乱，揪我的小辫，向我身上扔虫子，吓得我看见他们就躲。

　　温馨提示：由于很多试题(主要是主观题)，其答案并不是唯一的，甚至是开放的，一道题的解题思路是多种多样的，从实施素质教育的要求出发，应该鼓励自考生用多样的思路解题。正是因为如此，在评卷过程中，往往会根据考生的作答情况，对评分标准进行调整，也正因如此，教育部把国家教育考试靠后的评分标准仍然列为秘密材料。因此教育部不在网上公布答案，请考生谅解。
