　　Children may not realize that violence has consequences. Moreover, they may fail to know that some of their acts are actually violent ones.

　　33.电影中，演员可以反复地杀与被杀，反正毕竟他们最终还可以再接着演别的电影，但是，现实生活中就不一样了：真实的人生命只有一次。

　　In movies, actors or actresses can kill or be killed again and again, for after all, they can always come back to life and continue to act in other movies. However, in real life, a real person can live only once.

　　42.日本高科技消费品得以主导世界市场是因为日本人勤奋、重技术、重创新。

　　Japanese consumer products are able to dominate the world market because the Japanese are hard working, technologically oriented and innovation-focused.

　　47.忘我主义是一种行为表现，是动物牺牲个体利益而维护另一动物或动物群体的利益。忘我主义的反面是自私自利。行使忘我主义行为的个体没有为自身赢得什么。

　　Altruism is a type of behavior in which an animal sacrifices its own interest for that of another animal or group of animals. Altruism is the opposite of selfishness. An individual performing altruistic acts gain nothing for himself.
