People don't often look back on the early 1900's for advice, but what if we could actually learn something from the Lost Generation? 通常人们不会为了求取生活妙方而去回顾20世纪初的年代，不过如果那个“垮掉的一代”真的能对我们有所助益呢？
The New York Public Library has digitized 100 "how to do it" cards found in cigarette boxes over 100 years ago, and the tips they give are so practical that millennials reading this might want to take notes.纽约公共图书馆将一组100多年前的香烟盒上的“生活妙招”卡片进行了数字化处理，这些卡片上的小贴士实在太实用了，二十一世纪的我们看到了也会多加留意！

If, when buying a boiled lobster, you are in doubt as to its freshness, just pull back the tail, then suddenly release it; if the tail flies back with a snap, the lobster is quite fresh; but if it goes back slowly, you may be pretty sure the lobster has been boiled and kept for some days.当你买油炸龙虾的时候，如果你对它的新鲜程度存在疑问，就把龙虾尾巴往后面拉一拉，然后猛地松开它。如果尾巴“啪”地一声弹了回去，那这只龙虾就很新鲜；如果尾巴是慢慢的卷回去，你可以确信这只龙虾已经炸好放着好几天了。
