There are many older people in the world and there will be many more. A little-known fact is that over 60 percent of the older people live in developing countries. According to the World Health Organization, by 2020 there will be 1 billion, with over 700 million living in developing countries.
It is a surprising fact that the population aging is particularly rapid in developing countries. For example, it took France 115 years for the rate of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percent. It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.
What are the implications of these increased numbers of older folk? One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live, the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disability. Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible, including during old age, to lessen the financial burden on the state.
Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society. In some African countries, certainly in Asia, older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge. Yet traditions are fading away daily, which does not make sure the continued high regard of older people. As society changes, attitudes will change.
Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination in employment. Life-long learning programs need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country's development.
Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people. Both public and private schemes are vital in order to build a suitable safety net.
1.The rate of older people________.
A. is bigger in developed countries than in developing countries
B. is one-seventh of the population in developing countries
C. will increase much faster in China than in France
D. will be sixty percent in developing countries by 2020
2.According to passage, which of the following are governments most worried about?
A. The diseases and disability of older people
B. The longer life and good health of people.
C. The loss of taxes on older people.
D. The increasing respect for older people.
3.Which of the following measure is NOT mentioned to solve the population ageing problem?
A. Getting rid of age discrimination in employment.
B. Supplying life-long learning programs to older people.
C. Making sure adequate income protection for older people.
D. Providing free health care for sick older people.
4.The author concludes in the last paragraph that ________.
A. governments have spent lots of time in solving the aging problem
B. population aging is a hard problem, but it needs to be solved urgently
C. people are too busy to solve the population aging problem
D. much time and effort will be lost in solving the aging problem

80% of all communication in English being small talk, it is essential for us master this practical social technique. A very important function of them is to establish a relationship between people who they don’t know each other well. No formula for small talk is more successful as the AAA model(AAA=answer, add and ask). This is why it works. Imagine a situation where two stranger are talking to each other in the absent of all their common acquaintances. Because it is difficult to have a conversation, they gradually came to realize the important thing is that they are saying something. By continuing with the AAA model, the conversation continues, for they both want to avoid an embarrassed silence.

A Russian legend has a story about the origins of cats. The cat’s coat, it was said, was originally designed for the dog, but the dog became so impatient when coats were being handed out that he was told to wait at the back of the queue. The cat was given the fur instead of the dog. This, according to Russian folk storied, is the origin of why dogs dislike cats.
A nameless cat with a taste for travel flew for three weeks between New York and Tel Aviv in 1984. It escaped from its owner’s cat-box in the plane’s luggage compartment(行李仓)on the first trip and all efforts to get it out with bowls of milk and food failed. After nearly 80,000 miles of flying the airline called in a vet who got it out.
The Chinese attitude to the cat was not clear. Cats were welcome for their ability to kill mice and were considered suitable pets for women. On the other hand, they were suspected of bring bad luck into the home. In the days before the invention of the watch, it was said that they used their cats as clocks. The pupils(瞳孔)of the cat’s eyes were believed to gradually change shape with the position of the sun in the sky. At midday they were a narrow line and they gradually became rounder until sunset.
Britain’s cleanest cat is undoubtedly Harvey, a five-month-old Persian who climbed into his owner’s washing machine. He went through a ten-minute wash cycle before someone noticed him through the glass door, and pressed the “stop” button. Harvey was soon back to his usual self.
Cats seem to be able to sense earthquakes. Josie, who lives in California, warned her family of a quake in 1971.
She wore her owners. Mr. and Mrs. Miller, at 5:50am by jumping onto the bed and running around. When the Miller followed her out of the house, Josie ran off. The earthquake was only a small one, but the cat raised the alarm every time there was a quake after that.
1.From the Russian legend we know the dog_____.
A. sees the cat his friend. B. received the fur coat.
C. disliked the fur D. got punished by God
2.Which of the following shows it is sometime in the afternoon according to the Chinese belief?
3.Which of the following correctly matches the picture to the paragraph which describes the event?
A. Picture a)---Paragraph 1 B. Picture b)---Paragraph3
C. Picture c)---Paragraph 5 D. Picture d)---Paragraph 4

When it comes to film, people usually favor good over evil, focus on the main characters and ignore the supporting characters. But when it comes to the Minions (小黄人), these conventions go right out of the window.
Originally comedic background characters in the Despicable Me series, these yellow pill-shaped screwballs(怪人) have totally stolen the show.
This summer the characters appeared in their own self-titled movie in theaters abroad, having the second biggest opening weekend of all time for an animated film, according to USA Today. Recently, McDonald’s has been including Minion toys with kids’ meals in some regions, causing loyal fans to go to the restaurant to collect them all. Related video games, clothing, toys and other merchandise are sweeping the world.
The movie’s huge popularity even surprised its writers. “We never knew the Minions were going to be so popular. It just became a force of nature,” the film’s co-writer, Cinco Paul, told the Los Angeles Times.
So, what makes the banana-loving Minions a big hit? For many, the most attractive is obviously their cuteness. Their simple, graphic (图形的) nature can easily transcend cultures and age groups. “Even children can draw them”, Los Angeles Times reporter, Rebecca Keegan, wrote.
But there’s more than just cuteness. US entertainment website, HitFix, explains that their way of communicating makes the creatures infectious (有感染力的) as well. They largely speak in nonsense words. But it seems everyone can understand them through their exaggerated movements and expressions.
They desire nothing more than to serve their most despicable master, Felonious Gru. And this evil characteristic strikes a chord (引起共鸣) with humans.
“Perhaps we love Minions because they remind us of ourselves,” Huffington Post associate Web editor, Sara Boboltz, wrote.
1.What can be inferred from the first paragraph?
A. People usually like the supporting players instead of the main characters.
B. People like the Minions who are the supporting players in the movie.
C. The Minions are the main characters in the film, Despicable Me.
D. People prefer the main characters to the Minions in Despicable Me.
2.What has McDonald’s done to attract customers?
A. It has made its food look like Minions.
B. It has made Minion video games to show to customers.
C. It is giving some Minion clothes to customers as gifts.
D. It is offering Minion toys to attract fans.
3.Which of the following is NOT the reason why the Minions are so popular?
A. Their cuteness.
B. Their exaggerated movements and expressions.
C. Their way of communicating.
D. Their bad behavior.
4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. HitFix explains that Minions gained popularity by striking a chord with humans.
B. While Minions can’t be understood sometimes, their way of communicating is infectious.
C. Minions are eager to take on whatever task their despicable master gives them.
D. The opening weekend of Minions was the second biggest of all time.

Some people are like homing pigeons: Drop them off anywhere, and they’ll find their way around. Other people, though, can’t tell when they’re holding a map upside down. Are the directionally challenged just bad learners?
Not all of your navigational (导航的)skills are learned. Research shows that your sense of direction is innate. An innate ability is something you are born with. Your brain has special navigational neurons—head-direction cells, place cells, and grid cells (网格细胞)—and they help program your inside compass when you’re just a baby.
In 2010, scientists carried out an experiment to study baby rats’ neural activity in their brains. Although the rats were newborns, the researchers discovered that their head-direction cells (which help them recognize the direction they’re facing) were fully grown and developed. The rats, it seemed, were born with a sense of direction. And they hadn’t even opened their eyes yet!
Humans, of course, are not rats. But the hippocampus—the brain area we use for navigation—is similar in most mammals. If the rat’s compass develops this way, then it’s likely that a human’s compass does, too.
If we’re born with a sense of direction, then why are some people so good at getting lost? The scientists found that the two other cells—place and grid cells—developed within the first month. Place cells are thought to help us form a map in our mind, while grid cells help us navigate new and unfamiliar places. The two cells work together, and that’s where the trouble might be.
People who took part in a 2013 study played a video game that required them to travel quickly between different places. Monitoring their brains, the scientists found that grid cells helped the gamers recognize where they were—even without landmarks. According to researcher Michael Kahana, differences in how grid cells work may help explain why some people have a better sense of direction than others.
1.What did the 2010 research find?
A. Rats have a natural ability to recognize directions.
B. Rats’ hippocampus is different from that of humans.
C. Rats usually find their way without opening their eyes.
D. Baby rats have as many head-direction cells as grown-ups.
2.What do we know about our navigational neurons?
A. Place cells let us know how to read a map.
B. Grid cells help us reach the place we are going to.
C. They help us use a compass when we lose our way.
D. Place and grid cells grow later than head-direction cells.
3.Why are some people so good at getting lost?
A. They can’t remember landmarks.
B. Their grid cells can’t work very well.
C. They are unfamiliar with new places.
D. Their ability to follow directions is poor.
4.What is the text mainly about?
A. Human navigational skills.
B. The compass in rats’ body.
C. Why grid cells are useful.
D. How homing pigeons work.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项.
Tea vs Coffee
Tea and coffee are two of the most widely consumed drinks in the United States. With popularity and interest in tea continuing to grow in recent years, many consumers have recently considered
making the switch from coffee to tea, if they have not done so already. All the buzz surrounding tea
and coffee may have you wondering, what are the differences? As it turns out, the differences are
many and varied.
In the US, interest in tea ranges from coast to coast with the highest in Hawaii and California
but stretching to the eastern states of Vermont and New York. On the other hand, the highest interest
in coffee tends to be concentrated more in the north and western regions(地区), with the highest
search volumes appearing in the states of Hawaii, Washington and Minnesota.
Differences between tea and coffee also vary in origin and production. All tea comes from the
harvested leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant, while there are about 60 different species of coffee
plants. Production of tea is quicker and more efficient: Camellia sinensis plants only need to grow
for three years before they are ready to process; coffee plants take up to five years.
Perhaps the most concerning issue consumers have when considering making the switch to tea
is the question of caffeine. The good news is, when it comes to tea and caffeine, there is something
for everyone. Unlike coffee, which typically only comes in decaffeinated and regular, there are
several varieties of tea available, based on caffeine preference.
From herbal teas that are naturally free of caffeine, to high quality green and black teas that
offer less than half the caffeine of coffee, to high caffeine teas such as our specially formulated
HiCAF? blends that contain slightly more caffeine than a cup of coffee, there is a variety sure to
suit your needs. As an added bonus, the lower acidity levels in tea tend to be gentler on the stomach
for a more comforting pick-me-up.
So what is the answer, coffee or tea? If you are looking for the most healthful benefit possible,
tea is probably the winner. They say a picture is worth a thousand words. If, like many Americans,
the rising popularity in tea has your interest piqued, the images below will help to clearly spell out
the differences between tea and coffee.
1.It can be learned from the passage that ______.
A. coffee is of much higher production than tea
B. tea and coffee are from harvested leaves of plants
C. the popularity of tea is growing constantly in the US
D. there is no regional difference in drinking tea and coffee
2. According to the passage, which of the following contains the least caffeine?
A. Green tea. B. Black tea.
C. Herbal tea. D. HiCAF? blends.
3.What is the author’s attitude towards tea?
A. Positive. B. Cautious.
C. Sceptical. D. Negative.
4.The underlined word “piqued” in the last paragraph probably means .
A. reduced B. lost
C. expressed D. excited
