6. Probably no aspect of nutrition is more discussed than that of calories. People say that they “eat” too many calories or not enough calories. They associate calories with their weight. We need to know what calories mean, how many calories an individual needs each day and which food are good sources of calories and which are poor. 参考译文 :谈到营养的方方面面, 人们讨论最多的可能就是卡路里了。人们说他们自己“吃了”太多的卡路里或是吃得不够。他们把卡路里与体重联系起来。我们需要知道的是卡路里指什么, 一个人一天所需的量, 哪些食品是摄取卡路里的优质来源, 哪些不是。
6. It is pleasant to chat with the driver while traveling, and talking may even help him or her stay more alert. However, if you are going to be giving directions when the driver is driving at a high speed, please stick to the directions, and be quiet the rest of the time. This will make your directions clearer, and it is easier for the driver to follow your directions correctly.
参考译文 :乘车旅行时和司机聊天是一件很愉快的事情, 这样做甚至能帮助司机保持警惕。然而, 如果你打算在司机高速行驶时给司机指路的话, 那请就只做指路一件事, 而在其他时间保持安静。这样会让你的指路更加清楚, 司机也更容易按照你的指路信息安全驾驶。
6. Today for many people office work is mental work, rather than physical tasks. These people may seek much more energy taking activities while on holiday, rather than simply lying on a beach. Once people become used to going on holiday, taking holidays becomes a habit. For many people, the holiday is one of the last things to be given up, and indeed many people have chosen to spend most of their income on holidays.
参考译文:如今, 许多人在办公室的工作是脑力劳动, 而不是体力劳动。这些人在假期里可能会花更多的精力参与各种活动, 而不是仅仅躺在沙滩上。一旦人们开始适应了度假的生活, 度假也就变成了一种习惯。对许多人来说, 假期是他们最不愿放弃的事情之一。事实上, 许多人选择在度假时花掉自己的大部分收入。 Unit 6\\7\\8 Translation 6
