You've heard of the fat suit and the pregnancy suit；now meet AGNES—the old person suit．

AGNES stands for ―Age Gain Now Empathy(换位体验)System‖ and was designed by researchers at MIT's AgeLab to let you know what it feels like—physically—to be 75 years old．―The business of old age demands new tools，‖said Joseph Coughlin，director of the AgeLab．―While focus groups and observations and surveys can help you understand what the older consumer needs and wants，young marketers never get that ?Ah ha!‘ moment of having difficulty opening a jar, or getting in and out of a car．That‘s what AGNES provides．‖

Coughlin and his team carefully adjusted the suit to make the wearer just as uncomfortable as an old person who has spent a lifetime eating poorly and not doing much exercise．Special shoes provide a feeling of imbalance，while braces on the knees and elbows limit joint mobility．Gloves give the feeling of decreased strength and mobility in the hands and wrists，and earplugs make it difficult to hear high—pitched sounds and soft tones．A helmet with straps(带)attached to it presses the spine(脊柱)，and more straps attached to the shoes decrease hamstring flexibility, and shortens the wearer's step．

AGNES has been used most recently by a group of students working on a design of an updated walker．By wearing the suit they could see for themselves what design and materials would make the most sense for a physically limited older person．Coughlin said the suit has also been used by clothing companies，car companies and retail goods companies to help them understand the limitations of an older consumer．

―AGNES is not the destiny of everybody,‖ he said．―She is a badly behaved lady who didn't eat and exercise very well．A secondary benefit we‘ve found with AGNES is that it ha s become a powerful tool to get younger people to invest in their long-term health．‖

71. AGNES has been developed to ______ ．

A. make the users more comfortable

B. 1et us understand old people better

C. help old people move more quickly

D. produce new tools for the old-age business

72. According to the article，young marketers never ．

A．feel the same way as old people do

B．see the efforts old people make

C．ask what old people need and want

D．say ―Ah ha!‖ when they meet with difficulty

73. The 3rd paragraph mainly tells about ．

A．how the AGNES wearer feels B．how AGNES has been developed

C．how old people act D．how AGNES works

74. ―An updated walker‖(underlined)most likely refers to ．

A．someone who travels a lot

B．a physically limited old person

C．some equipment that helps old people walk

D．a company whose service involves old people

75. Which may be a fact resulting from the ―secondary benefit‖ of AGNES?

A．Y oung people respect old people．

B．Old-age business improves their service·

C．Old people eat and exercise well．

D．Y oung people eat and exercise well．

第四部分书面表达(共两节，满分45分)

第一节阅读表达(第76题2分，第77，78，79题每题3分，第80题4分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。

[1]Do you feel your life is dependent on fate or luck? Many people do and there are crazy superstitions(迷信)surrounding what you should and shouldn‘t on New Year‘s Day to get some luck for yourself．And we‘re going to need it，because everyone has heard that 2012 may be the end of the World。

[2]Imagine being in a car．The driver decides where to go and how fast to get there．The passenger goes along for the ride．Do you want to or the passenger in your own life?

Do you want to hide and hope that 2012 really isn‘t the end of the world，or do you want to design a new beginning?

[3] This isn‘t the first prediction of the end of the world and it won‘t be the last．The year 2000 was supposed to destroy computer technology, bringing the world to a stop．All this is futurology---the study of the e nd of the world or the ―world to come‖---which I think, personally, is a better translation.

[4] Translation is also the problem behind the idea that the Mayans(玛雅人)said the world would end in 2012．The troub1e with translation from the ancient Mayans is that there are many words to choose from and negative words sell a lot more magazines, newspapers and TV shows．There‘s a phrase in journalism in the West。―If it bleeds，it leads。‖ In other words，bad news sells better．

[5]To me，endings mean beginnings and new chances。The reality we‘re suffering through in the world fight now needs a change．Wars，the failing economy, global warming---the list goes on and on．People tend to change through insight(洞察力)or crisis and there are enough of both right now to lead in a completely new age filled with peace，economic well-being，health and joy both globally and personally．But，we can‘t just wait for it to happen．So create goals this year that arc positive，future focused，specific and measurable．We‘re all the drivers in the world to come.

书面表达：

Dear sir,

I am glad to learn that the London Olympic Organizing Committee needs volunteers from all over the world. I really want to be one of them.

I’m Li Hua, a student from No.1 Middle School of Zibo. I think I am fit for the volunteering work. Firstly , I am fond of sports , such as playing basketball, table tennis and so on. In addition, I am good at spoken English, which makes it possible for me to communicate well with others. What’s more, I will be free after taking the College Entrance Examination in June, which allows me enough time to serve as a volunteer.

Above all, being a volunteer of the Olympics will be a meaningful experience in my life and it will be a good chance for me to make new friends and broaden my horizons. So I hope you can give me a chance.

Looking forward to your early reply.

Yours truly.

Li Hua
