【題目】Retirement Age
Retirement is the point where a person stops employment completely. The "standard" retirement age varies from country to country, but it is generally between 50 and 70, according to the latest statistics, 2011. However, for a long time, people have got into an argument about whether the age of retirement should be increased or reduced in their own countries.
There are several arguments for allowing older people to continue working as long as they are able. Many people think that older employees have a large amount of knowledge and experience which can be lost to a business or organization if they are made to retire. Besides, older employees are often extremely faithful employees and are more willing to implement company policies than the young. A more important point is regarding the attitudes in society to old people. To force someone to resign or retire at 60 or 65 indicates that the society does not value the input of these people and that effectively their useful life is over.
Allowing old people to work indefinitely(無限期地), however, is not always a good policy. Some people took the strong view that age alone is no guarantee of ability. Many young employees have more experience or skills than older staff, who may have been stuck in one area for most of their working lives. Having compulsory retirement allows new ideas in an organization. On the other hand, older people should be rewarded by society for their life's labor by being given generous pensions and the freedom to enjoy leisure. They can have time to do whatever they like, that is, they can have their own plans or roles and achieve their retirement goals.
With many young people unemployed or frustrated in low-level positions, there are often calls to compulsorily retire older workers. However, this can affect the older individual's freedom—and right—to work. In my opinion, giving workers more choices over their retirement age will benefit society and the individual.
【1】According to the passage, old people should go on with work because _________.
A.they will help the business not to fail quickly
B.they have grasped much practical experience
C.they need to have a sense of achievement
D.they want to learn more knowledge
【2】The underlined word "implement" in Paragraph 2 probably means "_________".
A.take overB.work on
C.get rid ofD.carry out
【3】The third paragraph is mainly to tell us that _________.
A.older people can't do their work well
B.young people usually have new ideas
C.it is better for older people to retire on time
D.older people would like to do, something else
【4】What is the author's attitude towards compulsory retirement?
A.positiveB.neutral
C.negativeD.uncertain
【5】Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?
CP: Central Point P:Point Sp: Sub-point(次要點) C:Conclusion

【題目】閱讀短文,完成下列任務(wù)。
Masterpieces
The Starry Night was painted in June 1889 when Vincent van Gogh was staying at a home for the mentally ill. Van Gogh painted what he saw from his window—the night sky with clouds, stars and a moon. However, he didn’t just paint the clouds. He also painted the massive circles of white and yellow racing across the sky. The stars and the moon hang bright in the night sky. Beneath this amazing sky, we see a sleeping village and a dark, lonely tree.
His unusual use of colour has led experts to think that Van Gogh’s mental illness may have affected his sense of sight. He also took a drug that can make people see yellow spots, just like the stars in The Starry Night.
Unfortunately, Van Gogh’s unique paintings weren’t very popular and he only sold one painting in his lifetime. He also thought The Starry Night was a failure. However, the fact remains that The Starry Night is now one of the world’s most famous paintings.
The Scream was painted by Edvard Munch in 1893. What makes it striking is that it shows a thin figure with an expression of fear—the figure’s mouth is wide open and letting out a powerful scream. The figure covers his or her ears and looks directly at the viewer. This figure is set on a bridge above a dark, stormy sea, and against a burning orange-red sky.
In his diary, Munch talked about what inspired him. “I was walking down the road with two friends when the sun set; suddenly the sky turned as red as blood ... I stood there shaking. Then I heard the scream of nature.”
Many experts say that The Scream is connected to Munch’s mental health problems, which caused him a lot of pain.
The Empire of Light is a series of paintings by Belgian artist René Magritte. Between 1953 and 1954, he painted the same scene 27 times. It shows a beautiful house lit by lights from inside, surrounded by the darkness of night. What is strange is that above the house and the tree, we see a daytime sky full of brightness and soft white clouds. It seems like quite a mysterious scene.
Magritte was a painter inspired by his thoughts and ideas. His paintings were visual experiments as he tried to play with reality. His view was that art should shock the viewers and challenge their sense of reality.
The Empire of Light has produced different reactions in viewers. Some feel that the paintings look dark and troubling. Others, however, find them calming. As for Magritte himself, he thought that the change between day and night in the paintings was surprising. “I call this power poetry,” he said.
任務(wù)一:圖文匹配,并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
【1】The Scream Picture _____
【2】The Starry Night Picture _____
【3】The Empire of Light Picture _____
任務(wù)二:選擇最佳選項。
【4】What do these three paintings have in common?
A.They are paintings of night.
B.They were painted in the 19th century.
C.They were drawn by mentally-ill artists.

【題目】The Mystery of Dark Matter
If you look at the night sky, you'll often see stars moving very quickly. In fact, they move much more quickly than they should according to their size and the laws of physics. Scientists do not completely understand why the speed of these stars is so high. But many believe the reason is that much of the universe is made up of something called "dark matter". Groups of stars called galaxies, such as the Milky Way, might even consist of ninety per cent dark matter.
How much something weighs depends on where it is. The same object weighs only half as much on Mars as it does on Earth and almost three times as much on Jupiter. So scientists prefer to talk about the mass of something rather than how much it weighs, because mass does not change. They can work out the mass of galaxies by measuring the distance between them and the speed they move. Recently, Dr. Jorge Penarrubia and a team from Edinburgh University discovered something interesting. The mass of the Milky Way is only half as much as the mass of another nearby galaxy, Andromeda. This seems strange, but dark matter may explain why.
Finding out more about dark matter could help us understand how the universe began, but this is not easy. Lots of scientists with different types of expert knowledge are working on the problem. The Edinburgh team is working with many other universities like the University of British Columbia.
We can't see dark matter, it's very difficult to measure and we can't find out its mass. Unlike stars, dark matter doesn't produce or reflect light. But we can make a good guess that it is there because of the way things move and the way light bends. Experts now think dark mater may be very different from the mater which we find on Earth. There may also be five times as much dark matter in the universe as ordinary matter.
The Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky first gave dark matter its name in the nineteen-thirties. Researchers have been looking for it ever since. Today, technology such as the Large Hadron Collider is collecting more and more information but this technology cannot tell us everything. New ways of finding dark matter will be needed. Investigating dark matter may even mean we will need to start asking questions about the way we look at the universe, including the ideas of Albert Einstein.
【1】In what way do scientists find out the mass of galaxies?
A.Depending on where they are.
B.Depending on how much they weigh.
C.According to the way they move and the laws of physics.
D.By calculating how far between them and how fast they move.
【2】Which of the following statements about dark matter is NOT TRUE?
A.It can't be seen.
B.It doesn't reflect light.
C.It is not unlike ordinary matter.
D.It affects the movement of things.
【3】What may get researchers looking for dark matter?
A.To change the way light bends.
B.To prove the ideas of Albert Einstein.
C.To collect more and more information.
D.To help understand the origin of the universe.
【4】How is the article organized?
(P: Paragraph)
A.B.
C.D.
【5】Which heading best matches Paragraph 5?
A.It's there but we can't see it.
B.Sharing ideas leads to success.
C.We may need to change the way we think.
D.What your eyes can see can't be fully explained,
