【译文】

在大学中给你最深刻印象的事情，不同人有不同看法。但在我

看来，上大学对学生的成长留下了深刻的印象，大学有几个方

面给我留下了深刻的印象。

首先，大学提供的多样化学术课程确实令人印象深刻。大学提

供广泛的课程，使学生能够追求他们的热情。这种多样性鼓励

学生探索各种学科，为他们提供全面的教育。此外，它通过提

供专业知识和技能来为学生未来的职业做准备。

另一个给我留下深刻印象的方面是大学的教师队伍质量。教授

们都是自己领域的专家，并对自己的学科充满激情。他们非常

负责，确保学生获得高质量的教育。他们对教学的奉献精神确

实令人钦佩。

此外，充满活力的校园生活也是大学的另一个显著方面。众多

的课外活动，如俱乐部、运动队和文化活动，营造了活跃的氛

围。参与这些活动不仅有助于学生发展兴趣，还培养了一种归

属感。

总之，学术课程的多样性、教师的素质和充满活力的校园生活

是大学最令人印象深刻的方面。上大学提供了一个独特的机会,

促进个人和学术的成长。谁不会珍惜在大学学习的机会呢！

我家乡最明显的变化之一是基础设施的发展。新的道路和桥梁

已经建成，使交通更加便利。公共交通网络的扩大，包括地铁

系统，使通勤更加便利和高效。

此外，我家乡见证了美化城区的重大努力。老建筑已经焕发了

新生，变成了现代建筑。公园、花园和绿地已经建成，促进了

中国政府十分重视人民们健康饮食（diet）,通过大力提倡健

康饮食，人们对合理营养增进健康的重要性有了更加深刻的认

识。“吃得安全、吃得营养、吃得健康”是人民就对美好生活的

基本需要，是提升人民幸福感的必然要求，也为食品产业的发

展提供了新机遇。目前，各级政府都在采取多种举措确保人民

饮食健康，推进健康中国的建设。

第2套

改革开放以来，中国人的饮食（diet）发生了显著变化。过去

由于经济落后，食品种类有限、数量不足，人们仅仅满足于吃

得饱。如今中国经济快速发展，食品不仅更加丰富多样，质量

也大幅提高。随着生活水平不断提升，人们对饮食的要求越来

越高，更加注重吃得营养健康。因此，目前市场上推出的低脂、

低糖、有机食品受到人们的普遍欢迎。

第3套

改革开放以来，中国人民生活水平不断提高，这在人们的饮食

(diet)变化上得到充分体现。如今，人们不再满足于吃得饱,

而是追求吃得更加安全、更加营养、更加健康，食物也愈来愈

丰富多样，不再限于本地的农产品。物流业(logistics

industry)的发展使人们很容易品尝到全国各地的特产。毫无

疑问，食品质量与饮食结构的改善为增进人们健康提供了有力

的保障。

在美国，一名警察拦下一辆大型SUV,这辆车在高速公路上行

驶得非常缓慢，而且不断偏离车道。他预计会发现一个要么非

常醉酒，要么有医疗紧急情况的驾驶员。然而，警察发现的却

是一名坐在驾驶座位边缘的五岁男孩。他的脚勉强能够踩到刹

车，头部只能够伸出车窗。

这个孩子趁他十几岁的姐姐午睡时拿到了家庭车辆的钥匙。然

后，他驾驶车辆在城里行驶了三公里后上了高速公路。后来，

这名孩子对困惑的警察表示，他计划前往加利福尼亚州购买一

辆兰博基尼跑车。

尽管他只有3美元在钱包里，但至少他是朝着正确的方向努力。

手机已经改变了我们的生活方式，影响了我们的阅读、工作、

交流和购物方式。

但这一点我们已经知道。我们尚未理解的是，我们面前的这些

微小的机器是如何改变我们的骨骼的。它可能不仅改变了我们

的行为方式，甚至还改变了我们身体的形状。澳大利亚昆士兰

州阳光海岸大学的新科学研究表明，年轻人的头部后方正在发

育出额外的骨头。这些骨头的形成是由人们在使用手机时弯曲

头部的方式引起的。

这使得重量转移到头部后方的肌肉，导致骨骼以一种不正常的

方式生长。这个过程可以类比为皮肤在持续摩擦或压力下变硬

的方式。

其结果是头部颈部处突出一块骨头，形似角状。

一个村庄准备为一只名叫威尔伯的橘猫举办生日派对，威尔伯

因经常出没于当地商店而变得有名。

威尔伯快要迎来他的第十个生日，生日是在7月7日。

威尔伯既大胆又友好。

他大部分时间都待在村庄周围的商店和企业里。

他会随意走进任何一家商店，无论在哪里。

有一次，医生的接待员回来时，他正在她的椅子上坐着。

他最喜欢光顾的地方包括一家当地的理发店、两家酒吧和诺丁

汉小学。

LeslieHarper,经营其中一家酒吧的人，表示这只猫受到了顾

客们的热烈欢迎。

她告诉英国新闻社：”他在今年的大部分时间里都是定期的访

客。他是一只非常放松的猫，愿意让年轻和年老的顾客和村民

进来打个招呼。”她还说他是一只品味独特的猫，喜欢高价猫

粮。

负责组织威尔伯生日派对的SarahGodfrey告诉当地报纸：

“威尔伯是我们生活的一部分，就像对村里每个人都是一样。”
