The United States estimates that about one out of every 10 people on the planet today is at least 60 years old. By 2050, it’s projected to be one out of 5. This means that not only will there be more old people, but there will be relatively fewer young people to support them.

Professor Richard Lee of the University of California at Berkeley says this aging of the world has a great effect on economics. “Population aging increases the concentration of population in the older ages and therefore it is costly,” he said.

Aging populations consume (消耗) more and produce less. With more people living longer, it could get expensive. But Mr. Lee says with continuing increases in worker productivity and smart planning, it can be manageable.

Societies have different methods for caring for the elderly, but each carries a cost. Generally, there are three types of support. Seniors can live off the wealth they gained when they were younger. They can rely on their family to take care of them, or they can rely on the government.

In industrialized nations, governments created publicly-funded (公共資助的) support systems. These worked relatively well until recent years, when aging population growth in places like the United States and Western Europe began to gradually weaken the systems’ finances. These nations now face some tough choices. Mr. Lee says the elderly in some of these countries must either receive less money, retire later or increase taxes to make the system continuable.

Most developing nations haven’t built this type of government-funded support, but have instead relied on families to care for their elderly. These nations also generally have a much younger population, which means their situation is not as urgent as more developed nations. But Mr. Lee says that doesn’t mean they can ignore the issue. “Third World countries should give very careful thought to this process, to population aging and how it may affect their economies — now, before population aging even becomes an issue,” he explained.

1.“Aging” in this text means ___________________ .

A. there are more young people than old people

B. an increasing number of old people are dying

C. more and more young people are growing old

D. the percentage of old people in the world is increasing

2. What is Professor Richard Lee’s attitude towards population aging?

A. Indifferent. B. Negative.

C. Optimistic. D. Worried.

3.The publicly-funded support systems in industrialized nations___________________.

A. are facing the risk of failing

B. have failed to provide support for the old

C. will be replaced by other support systems

D. have greatly affected the nations’ economies

4. We can infer from the text that developing nations___________________.

A. don’t see population aging as an issue

B. should prepare for population aging.

C. are facing urgent situations of population aging

D. have better ways to deal with population aging.

When someone says, "Well, I guess I'll have to face the music," it doesn't mean he is planning to go to a concert. It is something far less pleasant, like being called in by your boss to explain why you did this and did that, and why you did not do this or that. Terrible music indeed, but it has to be faced. At sometime or another, every one of us has had to "face the music", especially as children. We can remember father's angry voice, "I want to talk to you!” And only because we did not obey him. What an unpleasant business it was!

The phrase "face the music" is known to every American, old and young. It is at least one hundred years old. Where did the expression come from?

The first explanation came from the American novelist, James Fenimore Cooper. He said, in 1851, that expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings to go on the stage. After they got their clue to go on, they often said. "It's time to face the music." And that was exactly what they did - facing the orchestra(樂隊(duì)) which was just below the stage.

An actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of the audience that might be friendly, or perhaps unfriendly, especially if he forgot his lines. But he had to go out. If he did not, there would be no play. So the expression "face the music" came to mean "having to go through something, no matter how unpleasant the experience might be, because you knew you had no choice."

1.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A. If you'd like to enjoy songs, you'll face the music.

B. When actors have to face the music, it means they have to go on stage to perform, however changeable the situation is.

C. When you have to face the music, it is probable that you have met something unpleasant.

D. If a child does something against his parent's will, maybe he'll face the music.

2.Why might an actor be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of the audience?

A. Because the audience might be unfriendly.

B. Because he thought he might forget his lines.

C. Because he was afraid that his performance might not be perfect.

D. All the above.

3.From the passage we know that the expression "face the music" was first used by ________.

A. children B. a novelist

C. actors D. audience

4.What's the main idea of this passage?

A. Actors' behavior as they moved on to the stage.

B. The meaning and the origin of the phrase “face the music”.

C. A personal idea expressed by an American novelist, James Fenimore Cooper.

D. The feelings when we have to face the music.

請(qǐng)認(rèn)真閱讀下列短文, 從短文后各題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中, 選出最佳選項(xiàng), 并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。

FROM dogs and cats to pandas and penguins, lists of adorable animals can be very varied. However, when it comes to scary animals, the answers are often more or less the same – snakes and spiders are among the most dreadful ones for the majority of us.

However, most of us have never been bitten by a snake or a spider. So does this mean we are born with a fear of certain things?

Scientists have been actively looking into it for a long time. For example, studies have suggested that babies find live animals much more interesting than stuffed (毛絨填充的) ones. This interest continues even if those animals are snakes and spiders.

A study published in Psychological Science in 2008 seemed to show that snakes did have a different impact on babies. When scientists presented babies with animal videos along with random sounds of happy or frightened human voices, they found that babies looked at snakes for longer than any other animal however the voices sounded.

Now, a team from Rutgers University in New Jersey, US has tried to challenge the idea that babies are born with a fear of snakes and spiders. According to the BBC, the researchers measured babies’ physiological (生理的) responses as they watched videos of snakes and elephants paired with both fearful and happy voices.

Scientists then set out to surprise the babies to see how they would react. They presented them with an unexpected bright flash of light as they watched a video. As the BBC explained, a surprise like this would be more intense (強(qiáng)烈的) if the babies were already scared, just like when we watch scary films and jump more if we are already scared.

However, according to their findings, published recently in the Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, babies’ surprised responses were not bigger when watching a video of a snake, even when it was shown with a fearful voice. Their heart response was also lower, which also made it seem that babies were not scared.

“Children do not have an innate fear of snakes,” concluded the study. Even if previous studies had suggested that babies have different responses to snakes, it isn’t necessarily related to fear. “It’s possible that paying more attention to something might make fear learning easier later on. It leads to fear learning,” said research co-author Vanessa LoBue. She further explained that it was a good thing that humans didn’t have an inborn fear of snakes because it would make a young infant’s desire to explore new things less strong.

Instead, we have evolved to quickly learn to be afraid of something if it turns out to be dangerous.

1.What is the article mainly about?

A. How people’s fear of snakes and spiders has evolved.

B. Whether humans are born with a fear of snakes and spiders.

C. Why snakes and spiders are considered the most dreadful animals.

D. How babies react differently from adults to snakes and spiders.

2.What was the finding of the study published in Psychological Science in 2008?

A. The longer babies looked at snakes in the video, the less scared they were.

B. The fearful voices babies heard when watching snake videos doubled their fear of snakes.

C. Babies’ responses to the snake in the videos were greatly affected by the types of voices they heard.

D. Babies took more interest in snakes than the other animals in the videos regardless of which human voices they heard.

3. The underlined word “innate” in the second-to-last paragraph is the closest in meaning to ______.

A. from birth B. from learning

C. lasting D. immediate

4.How did babies react when the researchers from Rutgers University surprised them while they were watching a video of a snake?

A. They paid more attention to the snakes when they heard a fearful voice.

B. Babies’ heart responses changed slightly when they heard a fearful voice.

C. A fearful voice didn’t make their surprised response become more intense.

D. They became more scared when they experienced an unexpected bright flash of light.

5. According to Vanessa LoBue, since babies don’t have an inborn fear of snakes, ______

A. it would make it easier for them to learn fear

B. it would make them more willing to explore new things

C. it would lead them to stay away from dangerous things

D. it would encourage them not to be afraid of anything
