But have you ever thought about how to take care of four to twelve old people when you grow up and get married? This could be a problem for mos

27、t Chinese youths as China is entering a new stage of an aging society. An aging society refers to one where 10 percent or more of its population is over 60. By the end of 2007, Chinese over 60 years old have made up 11.7 percent of the nations total population. “China is getting old before becoming

28、rich,” said Cai Chuang, a professor at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. The population increase that has powered Chinese growth for three decades will give way over the next ten years to a rapid aging of the society. This will lead to weaker economic growth, because of a lack of labor resourc

29、es. As a result of the family planning policy, it is expected that the countrys total working population will decrease after 2015. China is not the only country getting old. More than 60 countries have become aging societies and one in three people in the European Union is a senior citizen. However,

30、 experts said that China doesnt have a highly developed social security network to support the old. Social security is an insurance program protecting those in need, including the old, the disabled and others.56. An aging society is a society that _. Aless that 10% of its population is over 60 B10%

31、or more of its population is over 60Cthere are four old people in a familyDmost of its population is over 6057. If China enters an aging society, _. Athere will not be enough labor resourcesBthe family planning policy will be endedCeveryone needs to take care of four to twelve old peopleDChina will

32、have a highly developed social security network58. What does Cai Chuang mean by saying “China is getting old before becoming rich.”?AChina will be an aging society, then be a developed country.BChina will be a rich country before being an aging society.CAn aging society will affect Chinese economy d

33、evelopment.DChina will stop developing because of its aging problem.59. The passage mainly talks about _.Aan aging societyBChinese social problemCfamily panning policyDaging problem in ChinaBThousands of people began pouring into Pennsylvania from other states. They wanted to buy lottery tickets. Th

34、e tickets cost only $0.9 each. But that small spending could bring them a reward of $90 million. That was the second largest lottery jackpot(积累奖金)in history. More than 87 million tickets were bought for the Pennsylvania lottery drawing. Those who bought tickets had to choose seven numbers from 1 to

35、80. The chance of winning was one in 9.6 million. But that little chance certainly didnt affect ticket sales. In the last few days before the drawing, tickets were selling at the unbelievable rate of 500 per second. Experts say many people buy lottery tickets because they just want to have a piece o

36、f the action. Others say the lottery is a stock market for poor people. It allows them to dream about wealth theyll probably never have. But many people believe lotteries are no better than legalized (合法化的)gambling. Some critics note that most people who play are poor and may not be able to afford t

37、he tickets. There are also many addicts who take the game seriously. They may pour their life savings into lottery tickets. Some clubs have been formed to help them kick the habit. Politicians like lotteries because they provide money that would otherwise have to come from new taxes. The profits fro

38、m lotteries are usually used to pay for education or programs for senior citizens. But critics say this arrangement just allows states to legalize vice(恶习), under the name of social progress. No matter whether you regard state lotteries right or not, you cannot refuse to accept their extreme popular

39、ity with many Americans.60. The main idea of the passage is that _.Alotteries are of great benefit to everyone who buys themBplaying a lottery is just like investing in the stock marketCa lot of people buy lottery tickets, but lotteries cause disagreementDlotteries are just legalized vice61. Which o

40、f the following is TRUE according to the passage?APoliticians like lotteries because they dont have to pay extra tax.BThe popularity of lotteries in America actually is social progress.CSome critics dont like lotteries because many poor people waste their money on them.DPeople love the lottery becau

41、se it is a stock market.62. In just one hour in the last few days, the Pennsylvania lottery sold tickets totaling_.A$1.62 millionB$90 millionC$9.6 millionD$87 million63. People who are addicted to playing lotteries should _.Ajoin a club Bkick the habit Cwin the Pennsylvania Dsave every centCHow shou

42、ld one invest a sum of money in inflation (通货膨胀)? Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate. Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market. Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings, and even increase your we

43、alth is to buy beautiful objects from the past. Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques. I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life. The planet Earth is

44、ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound. It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands. Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round peoples wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control. Th

45、is creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves. Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality, but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time. Certain men were very clever at measuring the time according to the be

46、ating of their own hearts. They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout time. So it seems that the first clocks were human beings. However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling the time. They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun. They mark

47、ed the hours on candles, used sand in hour- glasses, and invented water-clocks. Indeed, any serious student of antique should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past. Antique clocks could be very expensive,

48、 but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home. After all, if you are going to be ruled by time, why not invest in an antique clock and perhaps make a future profit?64. According to the passage, collecting antique clocks _. Acan hard

49、ly keep the value of your savings Bwill cost much of your savings Cmay increase your wealth Dneeds your bravery65. By quoting (引用) the remark of a being from another planet, the author intends to _. Asuggest human beings are controlled by a clock Bdescribe why clocks can rule the planet Earth Ctell

50、readers what clocks look like Dcompare clocks to human beings66. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to measure the time? ACounting the beating of ones own heart. BMaking use of candles, sand and water. CObserving shadows cast by the sun. DKeeping slaves busy day and night.67. The purpo

51、se of the passage is _. Ato introduce the culture of antique clocks Bto offer some advice on collecting antique clocks Cto compare different ways to make a future profit Dto explain convenient and reliable ways of telling timeDDo you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness, happiness, goodn

52、ess, and self- respect? The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized as honor help you create this life of good feelings. Heres an example to show how honorable actions create happiness. Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent, and profit from the clerks mistak

53、e, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor

54、 that we might never share with another soul. Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness? In the first case, where we dont tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-r

55、espect. We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerks attention causes different things to happen. Immediately the clerk knows us t

56、o be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased. Whenever we take honorable action we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility. There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions. Honorable t

57、houghts lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence. And its easy to think and act honorably again when were happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once its started, its easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which i

58、s important for our happiness.68. According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our _.Aself-respect Bfinancial rewards Cadvertising ability Dfriendly relationship69. The phrase bringing the error to the clerks attention (in Para.5) means _.Atelling the truth to the cler

59、k Boffering advice to the clerkCasking the clerk to be more responsible Dreminding the clerk of the charged item70. How will we feel if we let the clerk know her mistake?AWell be very excited. BWell feel unfortunate.CWell have a sense of honor. DWell feel sorry for the clerk.71. Which of the followi

60、ng can be the best title of this passage?AHow to Live Truthfully BImportance of PeacefulnessCWays of Gaining Self-respect DHappiness through Honorable ActionsEMany of the people who appear most often and most gloriously in history books are great conquerors and generals and soldiers, whereas the peo

61、ple who really helped civilization forward are often never mentioned at all. We do not know who first set a broken leg, or launched a seaworthy boat, or calculated the length of the year; but we know all about the killers and destroyers. People think a great deal of them, so much so that on all the

62、highest pillars in the great cities of the world you will find the figure of a conqueror or a general or a soldier. And I think most people believe that the greatest countries are those that have beaten in battle the greatest number of other countries and ruled over them as conquerors. It is just po

63、ssible they are, but they are not the most civilized. Animals fight; so do savages; hence to be good at fighting is to be good in the way in which an animal or a savage（野人）is good, but it is not to be civilized. Even being good at getting other people to fight for you and telling them how to do it m

64、ost efficientlythis, after all, is what conquerors and generals have doneis not being civilized. People fight to settle quarrels. Fighting means killing, and civilized people ought to be able to find some way of setting their disputes other than by seeing which side can kill off the greater number o

65、f the other side, and then saying that that side which has killed most has won. And not only has it won, but because it has won, it had been in the right. For that is what going to war means; it means saying that might（权利）is right.72. The author thinks that the conquerors and generals and soldiers _

66、.Aonly appear glorious in history booksBare greater than any other peopleCare not as great as described in history booksDdo not really help civilization forward73. As it is indicated in the passage, the figure of a conqueror or a general or a soldier is put on the highest pillars in the great cities

67、 of the world mainly because _.Apeople respect them very muchBthey fought bravely to protect their citiesCpeople think they fought too brutally（野蛮地）Dthey conquered many cities and countries74. What is the writers attitude towards the countries that ruled over a large number of other countries?APosit

68、ive.BCritical.CIronic.DRespectful.75. The author says that civilized people_.Ashould not have any quarrels to settleBshould not fight when there are no quarrels to settleCshould settle their quarrels without fightingDshould settle their quarrels by killing the other side第二卷（满分35分）第四部分：书面表达（共两节）第一节 任
