Book Knowledge vs. Experience
Knowledge can be acquired from many sources. These include books, teachers and practical experience, and each has its own advantages. The knowledge we gain from books and formal education enables us to learn about things that we have no opportunity to experience in daily life. We can study all the places in the world and learn from people we will never meet in our lifetime, just by reading about them in books. We can also develop our analytical skills and learn how to view and interpret the world around us in different ways. Furthermore, we can learn from the past by reading books. In this way, we won't repeat the mistakes of others and can build on their achievements.
Practical experience, on the other hand, can give us more useful knowledge. It is said that one learns best by doing, and I believe that this is true, whether one is successful or not. In fact, I think making mistakes is the best way to learn. Moreover, if one wants to make new advances, it is necessary to act. Innovations do not come about through reading but through experimentation. Finally, one can apply the skills and insights gained through the study of books to practical experience, making an already meaningful experience more meaningful. However, unless it is applied to real experiences, book knowledge remains theoretical and, in the end, is useless. That is why I believe that knowledge gained from practical experience is more important than that acquired from books.

書本知識與實際經(jīng)驗
獲得知識的來源有很多，其中包括書本、老師，以及實際經(jīng)驗，而每一種都有其優(yōu)點。從書本上及正規(guī)教育中所獲得的知識使我們知道在日常生活中沒有機會親身去體驗的事。通過讀書，我們可以研究世界各地的資料，還可以向不曾謀面的人學習。我們也可以培養(yǎng)分析的技巧，并學習如何以不同的方式去觀察并理解周圍的世界。此外，我們可以通過讀書，從歷史中獲取教訓。如此一來，就不會再重復別人的錯誤，并且能夠以他人的成就作為我們行動的基礎(chǔ)。
另一方面，實際經(jīng)驗能夠給我們更多有用的知識。大家都說從做中學的效果，我也認為的確如此，無論一個人成功與否。事實上，我認為犯錯是的學習方式。此外，如果想要有新的進展，就必須要付諸行動。想要創(chuàng)新，只靠閱讀是不夠的，必須要去實踐。最后，我們可以將通過讀書所獲得的技巧和見解應用于實際經(jīng)驗中，使得原本有意義的經(jīng)驗變得更有意義。不過，除非我們能將書本知識運用于實際經(jīng)驗中，否則書本知識終究仍只是理論，毫無用處。那就是為什么我會認為從實際經(jīng)驗中獲得的知識比從書本中所得到的知識更為重要。

The Influence of Television and Movies
There is no doubt that watching television and movies can influence the way that people behave. Moreover, it seems that people are spending more and more time watching some sort of visual entertainment, whether it is television, a video tape or a DVD. Therefore, the effects of visual media cannot be ignored.
One obvious effect of the these media is that watching them induces people to buy certain products. television advertising is widespread and, nowadays, even movie theaters permit advertisements. Another way TV and the movies affect people is that they give people either a broader view of the world or a distorted one, depending on what type of program they watch. Those who watch news and educational program can learn many new things while those who watch primarily entertainment shows may come to believe that most people in the world possess great wealth and good looks. It may make them become dissatisfied with their own lives. Finally, perhaps the most susceptible viewers are children, who may be unable to tell fact from fiction and may try to imitate acts that they see on TV or in the movies.
With the every-increasing popularity of video entertainment, society must pay attention to these effects. Television and movies, while entertaining and informative, cannot take the place of real experience.

電視和電影的影響
電視和電影無疑會影響人們的行為舉止。此外，人們似乎在花越來越多的時間去觀看一些視覺娛樂節(jié)目，無論是電視、錄像帶，或是DVD。因此，視覺每體的影響是不容忽視的。
這些每體所造成的最明顯的影響是，人們在觀看之后會被誘使去購買某些產(chǎn)品�，F(xiàn)在電視廣告非常普遍，即使是電*，也允許播放廣告。另外一個電視及電影會影響人們的方式是，它們能使人們對世界有更廣闊的見解或是扭曲的看法，而這取決于人們所觀看的是什么樣的節(jié)目。凡是觀看新聞性及教育性節(jié)目的人可以學習許多新事物，而主要觀看娛樂節(jié)目的觀眾可能就會認為，世界上大多數(shù)的人都很有錢，而且長得都很好看，這可能會使他們對自己的生活感到不滿意。最后，兒童可能是最容易受影響的觀眾。他們可能無法分辨真實與虛構(gòu)，而且可能會試著模仿在電視或電影中所看到的行為。
由于視覺娛樂越來越普遍，所以社會大眾必須注意其可能造成的影響。盡管電視及電影兼具娛樂性和知識性，但還是無法取代實際的經(jīng)驗。

Living Longer
In the past it was not uncommon for a man to die at forty, having lived a full life. But now we consider a lifespan of forty years to be very short. It is not unusual for people to live into their eighties and nineties, and some even reach 100. What's more, people are living long, healthy lives and are active well into their “golden years”.
Mankind's longevity is due mainly to advances in science and technology. Medical breakthroughs have eradicated many fatal diseases that were once common. Perhaps more importantly, better general health means that people are less likely to contract infections in the first place. Better health also helps people prevent slowly debilitating conditions, such as heart disease, which can take their lives at an early age. And as civilization has advanced, our living environment and sources of food have become more sanitary. Furthermore, work is now safer and not as taxing on the human body. We do not wear out after just a few years of very hard work.
There are many reasons why people are now living longer than ever before. But what is more important is that they are living better as they live longer. It is my opinion that we have scientific and technological development to thank for this progress.
參考譯文：
活得更久
以前的人活到40歲就過完一生而死亡是很平常的。但是現(xiàn)在，我們認為40歲的壽命很短。人們活到八十幾歲、九十幾歲，有些甚至到100歲，是很平常的。而且，人們還能活得久而且又健康，精力充沛地邁入他們的“黃金時代”(退休期)。
人類會長壽主要是因為科學及科技的進步。醫(yī)學上的重大突破已經(jīng)根除了以前十分普遍的致命疾病。而更重要的也許是，大眾健康的改善首先意味著人們不大可能得傳染病。人們變得更健康也有助于預防罹患一些會使身體狀況日益衰弱的疾病，例如心臟病。這些疾病常會奪走年輕的生命。又因為文明的進步，我們的生活環(huán)境以及食物來源已經(jīng)變得比較衛(wèi)生。此外，現(xiàn)在的工作比較安全，且對人體而言沒有那么繁重。我們不會因為只辛苦工作幾年就變得疲憊不堪。
現(xiàn)代人比以前長壽的原因有很多，但更重要的是，人們活得更久，而且也活得更好。我的看法是，我們進提那的進步得益于科學和科技的發(fā)展。
