“It’s like the facts of life talk with our kids; no one wants to have it, but you have to do it,” says Eleanor Blayney, consumer advocate for the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards. “People worry that if they sit down with Mom or Dad, it will be awkward or difficult. But it’s important to open up about your goals and aspirations, and then ask people in the family what their situation is. You model the conversation by sharing where you are.”
Conversely, Blayney says these meetings may go “one generation up,” where the needs of aging parents or grandparents get discussed. That gets tricky for many, as three out of four Americans have never discussed long-term care with their loved ones, according to Genworth’s 2011 Financial Reality Check Study.
If that subject is on the agenda, “Be straightforward and don’t take family members by surprise,” says Genworth national spokesperson Wendy Boglioli. “Tell your family that you have something important you want to talk about and do it in a comfortable, pleasant setting.”
“With elder parents, you have to ask them if they need some help with living expenses, medical expenses, all sorts of things,” adds Bob Stammers, head of investor education for the CFA Institute, a global nonprofit of investment professionals from more than 100 countries. “Some people don’t like to talk about it, and so you have to come at it from the heart. The older generation doesn’t like to admit they need some help.”(选自路透社报道 Families talk turkey at Thanksgiving financial meetings? mtizt.com注）
“这有点像跟孩子讨论性知识，没人想这样，但你必须得做。” 注册金融策划师标准委员会的消费者权益倡导者埃莉诺?布莱尼说道。“人们担心坐下来和父母谈话很尴尬很艰难。但是坦诚地说出目标和愿望很重要，之后询问一下家人的近况。和他人分享你的境况可以引导谈话。”
但布莱尼却认为这些聚会可能变成“上一代”大讨论，讨论上年纪的父母或者祖父母的需求。这对很多人来说很棘手，房地产信托投资机构盖恩沃斯的2011年财务状况审视研究报告显示，3/4的美国人从未与家人讨论过长期照料问题。
盖恩沃斯公司的全国发言人温迪?博格利奥利说，如果这个话题提上议事日程，“直截了当地提出来，不要让家庭成员感到惊讶。告诉你的家人，你有重要的事想说，谈话要在舒适愉悦的氛围中进行。”
投资管理研究协会的投资者教育主管鲍勃?斯塔莫尔斯说：“对年迈的父母，你必须问问他们生活开销、医疗费用等等用不用帮忙。有些人不喜欢谈这些，因此你需要用心去说。老年人不喜欢承认自己需要帮助。”投资管理研究协会是一家全球性的投资专业资格非赢利性机构，会员来自100多个国家。

曾子这妻之市，其子随之而泣。其母曰：“女还，愿反为女杀彘。”
妻适市来，曾子欲捕彘杀之。
妻止之曰：“特与婴儿戏耳。”
曾子曰：“婴儿非也戏也！婴儿非有知也，待父母而学者也，听父母之教。今子欺之，是教子欺也。母欺子，子而不信其母，非以成教也。”
遂烹彘也。(130字）（选自《韩非子》 mtizt.com注）
注：彘：猪。
参考译文:One day, when Zeng Shen’s wife was going to the market, their son cried and clamoured to go with her.
“Go back now!” she wheedled him. “When I get home we’ll kill the pig for you.”
Upon her return, she found Zeng Shen about to kill the pig. She hastily stopped him.
“I didn’t really mean it,” she protested. “I just said that to keep the boy quiet.”
“How can you deceive a child like that?” asked Zeng Shen. “Children know nothing to begin with, but they copy their parents and learn from them. When you cheat the boy, you are teaching him to lie. If a mother deceives her child, he will not trust her, and that is no way to bring him up.”
So he killed the pig after all.

当今中国仍面临着实现工业化的任务，那么，如何利用和借鉴日本的工业化 技术和经验来加快中国工业化， 就成为我国发展对日关系的根本利益所在。而日 本也需要从中国的快速经济增长和充满活力的改革中获益， 这又成为日本发展对 华关系的根本利益所在。 中日两国有着各自的生产要素优势，如劳动力、土地、技术、资金，管理等， 发展中日经济合作可以促使两国各自优势的活力竞相迸发， 这也是发展中日经贸 关系的根本目的之所在。（195字）
参考译文:China is still faced with the task of realizing industrialization. Hence, the fundamental interests of China’s relations with Japan lie in how to make use of and learn from Japan’s technology and experience to accelerate China’s industrialization. While on Japan’s part, it is of fundamental interest to benefit from China’s rapid economic growth and energetic reform. China and Japan have their respective advantages regarding productive factors, such as labor forces, land, technology, capital and management. Developing Sino-Japanese economic cooperation can help activate the respective advantages of the two countries, which is also a fundamental objective in developing Sino-Japanese economic and trade relationship.
