13.老年为少年之过来人，少年为老年之补者；老与少，只

不过时间上之差别而已。然中国习惯，对老少之间，往往存

在一条无形的界限。在客观上，有时重老而轻少，有时重少

而轻老。在主观上，老者自傲其老，少年自傲其少。几千年

来，逐渐形成老者自以为持重练达而菲薄少年为年少没经历;

而少年自以为自己精明能干，而认为老者老朽昏庸。此真所

谓偏见无知也。我们应懂得，老年与少年，各有所长，各有

其用。如能拣弃成见，同为社会效力，则裨益民族，定非浅

鲜。

15.从20世纪下半叶起，英语作为全球通用语盲的地位进一

步得到巩固和发展。英语已经不再是非英语国家和英语国家

的人们进行交流时的工具，而更多地成为非英语国家之间的

人们进行沟通的共用语言。英语在非英语国家的发展已经造

成了许多带有浓厚地域特色的变体，它们的诞生已经或将要

对英语今后的变化与发展带来不可忽视的影响。
