一、一名古巴妇女号称已经126岁了，算算是全球最老的妇人，当然生日上有了庆祝与欢 喜，不过，她好像不是最长寿的人瑞。 二、内文 She has trouble seeing and needs help to stand up, but at 126 years young Juana Bautista de la Candelaria Rodriguez says she still has a lot of good years left. She remains healthy and in good spirits, according to the local Cuban media on Thursday as she celebrated her 126th birthday surrounded by her numerous family, neighbours and friends. According to the civil register in her village of Campechuela, Candulia was born on February 2, 1885, the second of 13 children born to parents who also survived to be almost 100 years old. But no international list recognises her birth, so officially she is not registered as one of the oldest people on Earth. 三、多益英检文法整理 1. troble(N):问题或麻烦，remain(V):保持，剩余，spirit(N):精神，celebrate(V):庆 祝，surround(V):包围，numerous(adj):众多的，civil(adj):国内的、民事的， register(V、N):注册，登记簿，survive(V):生存，recognise(V):承认。 2.look for troble/ ask for trouble:自讨苦吃，team spirit:团队精神，Holy Spirit:圣灵，celebration(N):庆祝，常见的还有ceremony(N):典礼，birthday:生日， surrounding(adj):附近的，surroundings(N):环境，civil servant:公务员，civil war:内战，register office:户政事务所，survival(N):生存，the survival of the fittest:适者生存。 3.第一段提到 "she still has a lot of good years left"表示她还有好几年可活，一 般说，你还剩几块钱，"How much do you left?" 4. 第三段提到"the second of 13 children born to parents who also survived to be almost 100 years old" 这里提到的人，我们知道女主角已经126岁，她是家中13小孩 中排行第二，而且根据原文，她的母亲也活了将近100岁呦，(who 修饰前面的parents， 表限定修饰前方的N)。易混淆，所以要记得。 5. surround(V):包围，-round还可以认识其它单字，例如round(adj):圆形的，around( 介):在附近，ground(N):土地，background(N):背景，underground(N):地下铁。 更多学习多益文法与单字 也可点阅我的部落格 http://tw.myblog.yahoo.com/raymondchuang-toeic/ 原新闻网址： --
