Here many people try to keep t   away from growing old by   (做) exercise, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got m  because this caused them to feel they had   (失败)to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear. It taught me a lesson. Learning what you should and shouldn’t do in s  situations may be difficult, but it is  (值得) the trouble if you want to understand another culture.
