Are Societies Ageing Too Fast?

       An ageing society is one in which the population of people over the age of 60 is increasing．The global population at present is about 6 billion with 1 person in every 10 aged 60 or above．_．This will mean that for the first time in human history the population of older persons will be larger than the population of children! What are the causes of this population change?

       _．And another is that birthrates have dropped as people, especially women, are educated．Measures to slow population growth like China’s one-child policy, have also contributed to lowered birthrates．The increase in the aged population is not just an interesting trend, however; it also has severe implications for the future of global economies．

       People traditionally retire at 65 and live on government pensions．_．Another concern is that as medical expenses increase with age, the demands of the growing aged population will eventually cause medical systems to face bankruptcy（破產(chǎn)）．

       ___．They suggest that because people are living longer, they ought to work longer, while governments need to establish a sound social security system．They also suggest that individuals start saving as soon as possible to ensure a financially secure retirement．People should also develop good health habits in their youth to ensure an active and productive old age．__．By finding cures for diseases like Alzheimer’s and cancer, medical bills and the need for care would be drastically reduced．

       Finally, an important step to ensure a bright future for all is to do away with negative stereotypes that see valuable members of society only as pensioners or patients．It’s high time we stopped seeing ageing as a disease and started playing our parts in securing the future of our ageing societies．

A. Due to ageing problem, cities are facing more challenges．

B. Experts insist that steps should be taken now to prepare for the future．

C. As people grow older, a huge financial burden will be placed on the government．

In America, drivers’ education is part of the regular high school curriculum (課程). Every student in his or her second year of high school is required to take a class in driver’s education. However, unlike other courses, it is not given during the regular school year. Instead it is a summer course.?
The course is divided up into two parts: class time for learning laws and regulations, and driving time to practice driving. Class time is not unlike any other class. The students study the basic traffic laws from a text to pass the written driving test that is given to anyone who wants to get a driver’s license.
Driving time is a chance for the students to get behind the wheel and practice starting steering, backing up, parking, switching lanes, turning corners, and all the other maneuvers  (操作) required to drive a car. Each student is required to drive a total of six hours. The students are divided up into groups of four. The students and the instructor go out driving for two hour blocks of time. Thus, each student gets half an hour driving time per outing. The instructor and “driver” sit in the front seats and the other three students sit in the back.
After the student has passed the driver’s education course and reached the appropriate age to drive (this age differs in every state but in most cases the person must be 16 years old),they can go to a designated (指定的) state office to take their driver’s test, which is made up of an eye examination, a written test, and a road test. The person must pass all three tests in order to be given a driver’s license. If the person did well in his or her driver’s education class, he or she will pass the test with flying colors and get a driver’s license.
【小題1】We can infer that the students are required to ____ in their whole driving practice.

A．spend at least six hours driving
B．get half an hour driving
C．drive for two hour blocks of time
D．go out driving for twelve times
【小題2】Which of the following is Not True for the students wanting to get their driver’s license?
A．They must have their eyes examined.
B．They must be 16 years of age.
C．They should go to have their driver’s test.
D．They ought to do well in their driver’s course.
【小題3】In the last sentence, “with flying colors” means______.
A．happilyB．quicklyC．colorfullyD．successfully

某網(wǎng)站上組織了一次討論，其中David, Joe, Sophie, Michael與Bauer的觀點(diǎn)頗具代表性。以下是他們各自的觀點(diǎn)。閱讀下面發(fā)表在該網(wǎng)站上的6段留言（A、B、C、D、E和F），選擇與其觀點(diǎn)一致的表述，并在答題紙上將該項(xiàng)標(biāo)號涂黑。選項(xiàng)中有一項(xiàng)是多途選項(xiàng)。
【小題1】David believes people shouldn't smoke in public places as it harms others.
【小題2】Joe insists that smokers should put the cigarette ends where they should go．
【小題3】Sophie holds that this question should call for a further argument．
【小題4】Michael thinks cigarette taxes should be raised for free healthcare for nonsmokers．
【小題5】Bauer thinks that victims of second - hand smoking should leave smoking areas to avoid harm．
A
The stupid thing is, I often see people smoking and then they throw the cigarette ends away from them when they have finished, not even stopping them but it just seems like once they have finished, they don't want it near them, perhaps they ought to have to carry their own ash trays in their pockets．
B
In many places, there are no non - smoking bars or restaurants．Unless people refuse to go out with friends who smoke, they cannot avoid passive smoking．Society accepts that adults can decide to harm themselves．so long as they do not harm others．This is why the suggestion is not arguing that people should be banned from smoking in private．Passive smokers do choose to breathe in other people's smoke．If they do not want to smoke passively, they do not need to go to places where smoking is allowed．There is therefore no reason to prevent smoking in public．
C
I'm only for smoking because not only do nice people and many friends and family of mine smoke, but this debate needs someone to take the side of the smoker．Otherwise we're just picking on a set of people．The only comment so far for smoking has been that clever one about how they pay for it．Smoking has its good points, whether it is giving job opportunities to millions of people, or getting extra breaks at work．Anyway, I do have a lot to say against smoking too, but again, debate．
D
What I care about is whether people can get free healthcare．Some people deliberately take dangerous toxins into their bodies because they're "addicted" while there are other people like my uncle who died of lung cancer and he never smoked in his life．It makes you wonder why cigarettes are so cheap．Surely all the taxes from cigarettes ought to go to help people who don't smoke．Perhaps we ought to sort things out．
E
Completely against it．I work in a bar and 1 get so sick of coming home smelling like a bonfire． And if that isn't enough, I'm probably going to get lung cancer from those idiots that decide to excite themselves．However,! do understand that for some older smokers it is a habit because they may have been smoking long before they knew it was bad for them．I do think there's no excuse for my generation to do it though and if they want to die, then go to do it in your own home．
F
Phil and I had a good argument today in the pub．He made the comment, "If he wants to smoke and kill himself, he can!", about which I said "You want to get on your motorbike and risk death, fine", which are basically the same thing．He made the point that he's a good driver and it's not his fault if he gets hurt, but at the end of the day, his fault or not, he knows he could get killed, and he's still taking the risk of being on a bike．I think it's a sick thing to say, being honest! If people want to put something in their mouth and blow on it, they should be allowed without having things like that being said ! It's a free country!

第二部分：閱讀理解（共兩節(jié)，滿分50分）

第一節(jié)（共20小題，每小題2分，滿分40分）閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)A、B、C、D中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

Judging from recent surveys, most experts in sleep behaviour agree that there is virtually an epidemic （流行病）of sleepiness in the nation. “I can’t think of a single study that hasn’t found Americans getting less sleep than they ought to,” says Dr. David. Even people who think they are sleeping enough would probably be better off with more rest.

The beginning of our sleep-deficit crises can be traced back to the invention of the light bulb a century ago. From diary entries and our personal accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries, sleep scientists have reached the conclusion that the average person used to sleep about 9. 5 hours a night. “The best sleep habits once were forced on us, when we had nothing to do in the evening down on the farm, and it was dark.” By the 1950s and 1960s, the sleep schedule had been reduced dramatically, to between 7. 5 and 8 hours, and most people had to wake to an alarm clock. “People cheat in their sleep, and they don’t even realize they’re doing it,” says Dr. David. “They think they’re okey because they can get by on 6. 5 hours, when they really need 7. 5, 8 or even more to feel ideally energetic. ”

Perhaps the most merciless robber of sleep, researches say, is the complexity of the day. Whenever pressures from work, family, friends and community increase, many people consider sleep the least expensive item on their programme. “In our society, you’re considered dynamic if you say you need only 5. 5 hours’ sleep. If you’ve got to get 8. 5 hours, people think you lack drive and ambition. ”

To determine the consequences of sleep-deficit, researchers have put subjects through a set of psychological and performance tests requiting them, for instance, to add columns of numbers or recall a passage read to them only minutes earlier. “We’ve found that if you’re in sleep deficit, performance suffers,” says Dr. David. “Short-term memory is weakened, as are abilities to make decisions and to concentrate. ”

41. What is the main topic of the passage?

A. Research on the causes and consequences of sleep-deficit.

B. The epidemic of sleepiness in the modern times.

C. The history of people’s sleeping patterns.

D. The minimum of our sleeping hours.

42. Which of the following is Dr. David’s opinion?

A. People who think they are sleeping enough are better off than those who don't.

B. Some people can remain energetic with only 6. 5 hours’ sleep a night.

C. If they get 8. 5 hours’ sleep, people will be full of drive and ambition.

D. People’s metal power suffers if they are lacking in sleep.

43. People in the 18th and 19th centuries slept about 9. 5 hours a night because _______.

A. they were forced by their parents to do so

B. they knew what was best for their health

C. they had no electricity

D. they were not so dynamic and ambitious as modern people are

44. What does the word “subjects” in paragraph 4 mean?

A. Persons or things being discussed or described.

B. Branches of knowledge studied in a school.

C. Persons or things being treated in a certain way or being experimented on.

D. Any member of a state apart from the the supreme ruler.
