America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways-education, medicine and business. Quietly, the graying（老龄化）of America has made us a very different society—one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages.
A person’s age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position, marriage of health. There’s no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn’t as strong as it used to be. It doesn’t surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.
Many people say,“I am much younger than my mother or my father was at my age.”No one says “Act your age”any more. We’ve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.
41. It can be learned from the text that aging of the population in America .
A. has made people feel younger.
B. has changed people’s social position
C. has changed people’s understanding of age
D. has slowed down the country’s social development
42. The underlined word “one”refers to .
A. a society B. America C. a place D. population
43. “Act your age”means people should .
A. be active when they are old
B. do the right thing at the right age
C. show respect to their parents young or old
D. take more physical exercises suitable to their age
44. If a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it .
A. normal B. wonderful C. unbelievable D. unreasonable
B
Parents should stop blaming themselves because there’s not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful,reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal.
I’ve seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round. Sprawling himself(懒散地躺) on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a quick glance at me. His mother was ashamed. “I don’t know what to do with him these days,”she said. “He’s forgotten all the manners we taught him.”
He hasn’t forgotten them. He’s just decided that he’s not going to use them. She confessed(坦白) that she would like to come up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor.
Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the tabel, stare at me and say, “I don’t like your dress; it’s ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home.
“Where did we go wrong?” her parents are now very sad. Probably nowhere much. At least, no more than the rest of that unfortunate race, parents.
45. This text is most probably written by .
A. a specialist in teenager studies
B. a headmaster of a middle school
C. a parent with teenage children
D. a doctor for mental health problems
46. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to .
A. the change from good to bad that’s seen in a child
B. the way that parents ofter blame themselves
C. the opinion that a child has of his parents
D. the advice that parents want their children to follow
47. The boy on the sofa would most probably be described as .
A. lazy B. quiet C. unusual D. rude
48. From the second example we can infer that the parents of the two daughters .
A. pay not attention to them
B. are too busy to look after them
C. have come to hate them
D. feel helpless to do much about them
C
It’s 2035. You have a job, a family and you’ve about 40 years old. Welcome to your future life.
Getting ready for work, you pause in front of the mirror, “Turn red,” you say. Your shirt changes from sky blue to deep red. Tiny preprogrammed electronic are rearranged in your shirt to change its color. Looking into the mirror, you find it hard to believe that you are 40. You look much younger. With amazing advances in medicine, people in your generation may live to be 150 years old. You’re not ever middle-aged.
As you go into the kitchen and prepare to pour your breakfast cereal into a bowl, you hear: “To lose weight, you shouldn’t eat that,” from your shoes. They read the tiny electronic code on the cereal box to find out the nutrition details. You decide to listen to your shoes. “Kitchen, what can I have for breakfast?” A list of possible foods appear on the counter as kitchen checks its food supplies.
“Ready for your trip to space. You ask your son and daughter.” In 2005 only specially trained astronauts went into space — and very few of them. Today anyone can go to space for day trips or longer vacation. Your best friend even works in space. Handing your children three strawberries each, you add, “The doctor said you need these for space travel.” Thanks to medical advances, vaccination shots are a thing of the past. Ordinary foods contain specific vaccines. With the berries in their mouths, the kids head for the front door.
It’s time for you to got to work. Your car checks your fingerprints and unlocks the doors. “My office. Autopilot,” you command. Your car drives itself down the road and moves smoothly into traffic on the highway. You sit back and unroll your e-newspaper. The latest news downloads and fills the viewer. Looking through the pages, you watch the news as video films rather than read it.
49. What changes the colour of your shirt?
A. The mirror B. The shirt itself C. The counter D. The medicine.
50. How do the shoes know that you shouldn’t eat the breakfast cereal?
A. By pouring the breakfast into a bowl.
B. By listening to the doctor’s advice.
C. By testing the food supplies in the kitchen.
D. By checking the nutrition details of the food.
51. The strawberries the children eat serve as .

I was 9 years old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1994., but I can remember my mother’s words as if it were yesterday: “Kerrel, I don’t want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be careful when you are around him.”
AIDS wasn’t something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I knew that this would be a family secret. My parents were not together anymore, and my dad lived alone. For a while, he could take care of himself. But when I was 12, his condition worsened. My father’s other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look ater him.
We couldn’t afford all the necessary medication for him, and because Dad was unable to work, I had no money for school supplies and ofter couldn’t even buy food for dinner. I would sit in class feeling completely lost, the teacher’s words muffled as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage.
I did not share my burden(负担) with anyone. I had seen how people reacted to AIDS. Kids laughed at classmates who had parents with the disease. And even adults could be crues. When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave his food on the bedside table even though he was too weak to feed himself.
I had known that he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his cindition a secret. I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. Sad and hopeless, I called a woman at the nonprofit National AIDS Support. That day, she kept me on the phone for hours. I was so lucky to find someone who cared. She saved my life.
I was 15 when my father died. He took his secret away with him, having never spoken about AIDS to anyone, even me. He didn’t want to call attention to AIDS. I do.
53. What does Kerrel tell us about her father?
A. He had stayed in the hospital since he fell ill.
B. He depended on the nurses in his final days.
C. He worked hard to pay for his medication.
D. He told no one about his disease.
54. What can we learn from the underlined sentence?
A. Kerrel couldn’t understand her teacher.
B. Kerrel had special difficulty in hearing
C. Kerrel was too troubled to focus on the lesson.
D. Kerrel was too tired to bear her teacher’s words.
55. Why did Kerrel keep her father’s disease a secret?
A. She was afraid of being looked down upon.
B. She thought it was shamefu to have AIDS.
C. She found no one willing to listen to her.
D. She wanted to obey her mother.
56. Why did Kerrel write the passage?
A. To tell people about the sufferings of her father.
B. To show how little people knew about AIDS.
C. To draw people’s attention to AIDS.
D. To remember her fatherl.

Recently, in the hope of earning both money and social experience, I became a door-to-door salesman.
I once read a saying: “If somebody wants something of yours, you will be treated as warmly as spring, but if they don’t, you may be treated as coldly as winter.” You may consider this an exaggeration(夸张), but if you are a salesman, it is clearly correct.
You would never have found it to be so true if you hadn’t been a salesman. You needn’t stand doubtful looks and unfriendly comments; you needn’t listen to something completely wrong and not to say that it was quite right; you needn’t worry about being refused time after time; you needn’t always keep patience and a smile; you needn’t repeat the same sentences over and over again; you needn’t talk to somebody you dislike…
I did this work for a month, then I decided to give it up. Apart from the reasons above, I found I was paying too much attention to the job and thus sacrificing my study time. The latest test result proved that my grades were getting worse.
Even worse, I hadn’t enough time to join my classmates in college activities. Sometimes I felt lonely and unhappy because of both my study and my part-time job. Now I don’t think it is worth doing such a thing for even though I was earning money it came at great cost.
Newspapers and magazines often publish stories about excellent students who do part-time work while also keeping high scores in class. But according to my experience, part-time work can have some strong negative influences on study.
Most students don’t view the relationship between study and work correctly. In my opinion, if it isn’t a must for financial(财政的) reasons, students should be cautious (careful) about taking up a part-time job.
57. From the text, we can tell that the writer is .
A. an unemployed man B. a middle-school student
C. a college student D. a door-to-door salesman
58. Which of the following words has the closest meaning to the underlined word “sacrificing”?
A. losing B. wasting C. using D. getting
59. In the writer’s opinion, .
A. to do a part-time job was unnecesaary
B. part-time jobs had good effect upon study.
C. it was hard to deal with the relationship between study and work correctly.
D. part-time jobs would be good for every college student
60. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Part-time Jobs Are Useful
B. Part-time Jobs Can Coat Dear
C. Students shouldn’t Take Part-time Jobs
D. Part-time Jobs are Important to Many Students

Ⅷ 书面表达
Television presents a very vivid world to us on television. We can watch exciting Olympic football matches. We can travel New York or have sightseeing in London. We can also “go”to a concert with a cup of tea in our hand. From TV, we can learn many things happening in the world without going outside our houses.
Television also plays an educational role in our daily life. By providing various TV university courses, television offers various educational programs to different viewers.
However, television can also be harmful. It hurts our eyes. Watching TV too much influences our sleep and work and cut down children’s study time.
In short, we should regard television as our assistant, not our master.
