人到中年的必修课：如何坦然接受自己变老？
衰老，是人一生中注定要面对的课题。老去意味着身体机能下降，青春容颜不再。我们能看到很多所谓的“抗衰指南”，以及号称可以“冻龄”的各种医美项目，却从未有人描述过，人究竟应该如何面对衰老。《纽约时报》的一篇专栏认为，变老其实没那么可怕。我们应该如何坦然老去？又如何把握当下？
The Beauty f Embracing Aging
By Charles M. Blw
N ne really tells us hw we're suppsed t age, hw much fighting against it and hw much acceptance f it is the right balance.
The pet Dylan Thmas tld us we shuld "rage, rage against the dying f the light," that "ld age shuld burn and rave at clse f day." He died, sadly, befre turning 40. Fr thse f us well past that mark, rage feels futile, like a misallcatin f energy.
My mther, wh lives alne, suffered a strke. She wuld fully recver, but the image f her in that hspital bed shk me and has remained with me. In that mment, I was reminded that my mther was in the final chapter f her life, and that I was mving int a new phase f mine. That is ne f the prfund, emtinal parts f aging: assuming a new familial rle.
The actress Jenifer Lewis, appearing n the natinally syndicated radi shw "The Breakfast Club," nce remarked: "I'm 61. I gt abut 30 mre summers left." Since hearing thse wrds, I've thught f my wn life in that way, in terms f hw many summers I might have left.
I dn't cnsider these questins because I'm wrried, but because I want t remind myself t relish. Relish every summer day.
I have n intentin f raging against my aging. I intend t embrace it, t embrace the muscle aches and the crw's feet as the price f grwing in wisdm and grace.

坦然老去，妙不可言
从没有人真正说明白，我们应该如何老去，要与衰老作多少斗争，以及在何种程度上接受衰老才是恰当的平衡。
诗人迪伦·托马斯（Dylan Thmas）曾这样写道，我们应该“怒斥，怒斥光明的消逝”，因为“老年应当在日暮时燃烧咆哮”。可遗憾的是，他在40岁之前就去世了。而对于我们这些早已过了40岁的人来说，“怒斥”感觉不过是徒劳，就像是把劲儿使错了地方一样。
我的母亲一个人住，有次不幸中风了。虽然她的康复不成问题，但母亲躺在病床上的样子深深震撼了我，那副画面一直在我脑海中挥之不去。在那一刻，我意识到母亲的生命已经来到了终章，而我也在进入一个新的阶段。这就是面对衰老的其中一课，对人影响深刻且令人情绪激荡：承担起一个新的家庭角色。
女演员詹妮弗·刘易斯（Jenifer Lewis）在参加全国同步播出的广播节目“早餐俱乐部”（The Breakfast Club）时曾说过这样一句话：“我61岁了，我大约还有30个夏天可以度过。”自从听到这些话，我开始用同样的方式来思考自己的生活，思考自己还能度过多少个夏日。
我想这些问题并不是因为我很焦虑，而是因为我想提醒自己务必要好好享受。享受每一个夏日。
我无意对自己的衰老感到愤愤不平。我打算坦然接受它，不管是酸痛的肌肉还是眼角的鱼尾纹，我都会坦然接受这些成长的“代价”，因为换来的是年岁积淀下的智慧与优雅。

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Kevin Beard如何克服阅读障碍、在工作和学习中不懈努力，并最终获得GED的故事，展现了他的决心、毅力和对教育的渴望。
13．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“S I was shcked when I arrived ne day t find him standing in frnt f the rm telling a stry, with tears n his cheeks. I was wrried smething had gne terribly wrng in his life, but as I listened t him talk, I heard him use wrds like “amazing” and “accmplishment.” I realized his tears were ut f happiness... Just a few days earlier, he’d received his GED (General Equivalency Diplma), at the age f 52. (所以，当我有一天到来时看到他站在教室前面讲故事，脸上挂着泪水时，我感到非常震惊。我担心他的生活中发生了什么可怕的事情，但当我听他讲述时，我听到了诸如“令人惊叹”和“成就”之类的词语。我意识到他的眼泪是出于幸福……就在几天前，52岁的他拿到了他的GED（普通教育程度文凭）。)”以及下文内容可知，Kevin之所以在教室哭是因为在几天前，52岁的他获得了GED证书，他终于实现了自己的目标。故选B。
14．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Amazingly, when he came clean with them abut his educatin, they said they’d hi re him as lng as he gt his GED. He agreed, and kind f excited abut giving schl anther chance. (令人惊讶的是，当他向他们坦白自己的教育经历时，他们说只要他拿到GED，就会雇佣他。他同意了，并且对再次回到学校感到有些兴奋。)”可知，当Kevin告知治安部门自己的教育情况时，他们表示只要他拿到GED就会雇佣他。这明显给了Kevin一个实现目标、获得工作的希望。故选D。
15．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“It was a huge challenge, smething Kevin cmpares t “climbing a muntain.” In fact, as Kevin tk tests alng the way, he did smething interesting with each f his results. He psted them n his bedrm wall s that he culd watch his prgress. “I needed t see myself mving frward, and I wanted t speak,” he said. (这是一个巨大的挑战，Kevin将其比作“爬山”。事实上，Kevin一路参加考试的过程中，他对每次的考试结果都做了一件有趣的事情。他把成绩贴在卧室的墙上，以便能看到自己的进步。“我需要看到自己不断前进，我想发声，”他说。)”可知，Kevin把每次的测试结果贴在卧室的墙上，以便能看到自己的进步。这表明Kevin是通过提醒自己取得的进步来鼓励自己继续努力学习。故选D。
16．推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，文章主要讲述了Kevin尽管面临阅读障碍和早期离开学校的挑战，但他仍然坚持学习，最终获得了GED。这体现了坚定的意志和决心可以克服困难，实现目标。选项A“Nthing can stp a willing heart. (没有什么可以阻挡一颗坚定的心。)”与Kevin故事所展示的主题相符。故选A。
