his life by two to three months. We did not want to see him suffer, so we chose to kill the cat in a painless way. I am having a rough time! I cry when I am alone. I cry when I see pet commercials on television. I put away everything that reminds me of the cat. But the last sight of seeing the cat in pain plays over and over in my head. My kids seem alright with what has happened, but why am I struggling? It has only been one week since his passing, so I hope things will get better. Do you have any suggestions? Yours, Sad DEAR SAD: There is no loss quite like the loss of a pet; these animals keep us company through important life passages and are beloved witnesses to our human lives. I understand your instinct to put away all of your cat’s things, but it may help you now to memorialize your pet by using these things. Each family member can write down favorite things about him or memories of him; read their memories aloud and put the papers inside his bowl. The idea is to replace those painful last memories with much more lively memories taking place over the most of the animal’s life. Time will then do its job, which is to affect your feelings. And then, when you’re ready, I hope you will adopt another animal and give it the opportunity to share your life. Yours, Amy 29.Which of the following made the author’s family choose to kill the cat in a painless way?

C.All of a sudden. D.With much pain.

31.What do we know from the last paragraph of Amy’s letter?

A.The longer it is, the less you will feel sad about your pet. B.It is important to find a new pet as soon as possible. C.As time goes on, you will feel more sorrow about your pet. D.One can’t live a happy life without a pet around him.

D

Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women. Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than jobholders. An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment rate increases by 1%, the death rate increases by 2%. All this comes down to one point, work is helpful to health.

Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into contact with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.

Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Work makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.

From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study hard and live a happy and healthy life.

Finnish Translation: Be Aware of False Friends（原创）

False friends, those tricky words that are a translator’s enemy and that can be found in almost every document we translate, also exist between English and Finnish. 36

So, what’s a false friend? Well, as many of you might know, a false friend (from the French faux amis) is a word or an expression that shares a similar written form in two languages, but which has different meanings. 37 When you see them, you might assume they have the same meaning as a similar word in your native language.

38 Even professional translators can be misled by a false friend. That’s why, as a translator, it’s necessary to be familiar with them. Remember that when it comes to translation, ‘false friends are worse than bitter enemies’, as the Scottish proverb says, and you should keep your eyes open, because they might be waiting for you around every corner.

It seems no language is free of false friends. 39 During the years I’ve been working as a translator, I’ve come across many false friends; they were in that urgent assignment, or that translation I finished off without first having my coffee, trying to confuse me. 40 Therefore, I would like to help you in your war against false friends by sharing some of them with you.

A.The Finnish language is no exception. B.Research key words while doing translation. C.This is the first of a two-part series on the topic. D.Therefore, false friends can cause a lot of problems. E.Luckily, I was able to spot them and translate them properly. F.Sometimes, even fluent users of a language can confuse them.

G.So you should avoid a nightmare caused by it during your next translation project.
