16、羅素，你一點(diǎn)進(jìn)取心也沒(méi)有，和二流子簡(jiǎn)直沒(méi)什么兩樣。”從我還是個(gè)穿著短褲的孩提時(shí)代起她就一直用這些話激勵(lì)我前進(jìn)：“你要混出個(gè)人樣來(lái)!”“不要半途而廢!”“要有點(diǎn)志氣，孩子。IV.ChineseTranslationofParagraphs與本文的標(biāo)題相反，本文真正要談的是如何才能不老，在我這個(gè)年紀(jì)，這才是更為重要的主題。我的第一條忠告是，選準(zhǔn)了祖先再投胎。盡管我雙親都是英年早逝，我選擇的其他祖先還是不錯(cuò)的。誠(chéng)然，我的外祖父在67歲正值盛年的時(shí)候去世，但另外3位祖輩都活到了80多歲。更前的祖輩中，我發(fā)現(xiàn)只有一位沒(méi)能長(zhǎng)壽，他死于現(xiàn)今罕見(jiàn)的死因，即遭斬首。我有位曾祖母是吉本的朋友，在92歲去世之前始終

17、令子孫們敬畏不已。我的外祖母所生的孩子中9個(gè)活了下來(lái)，1個(gè)幼年夭折，此外她還有過(guò)多次流產(chǎn)。守寡以后，她便立即投身于女子高等教育事業(yè)之中。她是格頓學(xué)院的創(chuàng)辦人之一，為了使女性能進(jìn)入醫(yī)生職業(yè)，她付出了很多心血。她過(guò)去經(jīng)常講起她在意大利遇到的一位神情悲傷的老年紳士。她詢問(wèn)起他悲傷的緣故，他說(shuō)因?yàn)樗麆倓偹妥吡藘蓚€(gè)孫兒女?！疤炷?！”她嚷道，“我有72個(gè)孫兒女，要是我每送走一個(gè)都如此悲傷，那我一生就會(huì)是凄涼的！”他則回答說(shuō)：“你這狠心的女人??！”但作為她72個(gè)孫兒女中的一員，我則更喜歡她的處世方法。80歲時(shí)她發(fā)現(xiàn)自己有些難入睡，于是她養(yǎng)成了午夜至凌晨3點(diǎn)閱讀科普書(shū)籍的習(xí)慣。我想她根本無(wú)暇注意到自己在衰老。

18、我認(rèn)為這正是保持年輕的良方。只要你興趣廣泛且強(qiáng)烈，有你還能做得了的事情，就不必為自己已經(jīng)活了多少年這種純粹的數(shù)字問(wèn)題而傷神，更不必去想你來(lái)年無(wú)多的可能性。至于健康，由于我很少得病，所以提不出什么有用的建議。我想吃就吃，想喝就喝，想睡就睡。我做任何事情從來(lái)不是因?yàn)樗鼘?duì)健康有益，盡管實(shí)際上我愛(ài)做的事通常都是有益健康的。從心理上說(shuō)，老年人要防止兩種危險(xiǎn)。其一是過(guò)分沉湎于往事。人不能生活在回憶當(dāng)中，也不能生活在對(duì)美好過(guò)去的惋惜或者對(duì)已故友人的哀痛之中。一個(gè)人應(yīng)當(dāng)把心思放在未來(lái)、放在自己還可以有所作為的事情上。這并不總是那么容易做到的，因?yàn)橥碌姆至繒?huì)不斷增加。人們很容易覺(jué)得過(guò)去自己的情感比現(xiàn)在更活躍，思想比現(xiàn)在更加敏銳。果真如此，那就該忘掉它；可要是忘得掉的話，那很可能就不是真的。另一件要避免的事是依戀年輕人，期望從他們的勃勃生機(jī)中獲得活力。子女們長(zhǎng)大之后，就想過(guò)自己的生活。如果你還像子女小時(shí)那樣關(guān)注他們，你就會(huì)成為他們的累贅，除非他們異常麻木不仁。我倒不是說(shuō)對(duì)子女不應(yīng)予以關(guān)注，而是說(shuō)這種關(guān)注應(yīng)該保留在思想中；可能的話，還應(yīng)該寬仁，而不是過(guò)分感情用事。動(dòng)物的幼崽一旦可以獨(dú)立，父母就不再理會(huì)它們；人類由于幼年期較長(zhǎng)，很難做到這一點(diǎn)。我認(rèn)為那些有著超越親情私欲的濃厚興趣愛(ài)好并參與
