、Reading （2道小题，共30分）

America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States

were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The

aging of the population will affect American society in many ways — education, medicine, and business.

Quietly the graying of America. has made us a very different society

— one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages.

A person ˊs age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position, marriage or health.

There ’s no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes

to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to

go to school, get a job, or stop working isn ’t as strong as it used to

be. It doesn ˊt surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother,

or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time.

Public notions are changing.

Many people say, "I am much younger than my mother — or my father — was at my age. " No one says

"act your age" anymore. We ˊve stopped looking with surprise at older

people who act in youthful ways.

1. It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America .

A) has made people feel younger

2. The underlined word “one” refers to .

A) a society

B) America

C) a place

D) population

3. We can infer from the text that if a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer would most probably consider it _______.

A) normal

B) wonderful

C) unbelievable

D) unreasonable

4. “Act your age” means people should .

A) be active when they are old

B) do the right thing at the right age

C) show respect for their parents young or old

D) take more physical exercise suitable to their age

5. This passage is mainly about ______________.

A) why American society is different

B) suitable behaviors at different age in Americanˊs eyes

Jacks is the name of a game that is quite popular with children. To play jacks, you will need a small rubber ball and ten small metal objects called jacks.

The rules for this game are not very difficult. To begin, you put the ten jacks on the floor or ground in front of you. Throw the ball up (but not too high) , pick up one

jack, and then catch the ball. Keep the jack in your hand and then continue to pick up the other jacks one at a time. You lose your turn if you do not catch the ball, you do

not pick up a jack, or you drｏp any jacks from your hand.

When you finish all ten jacks, you now try to do the same thing again but with two jacks at one time. This is more difficult of course. You lose your turn if you make any

of the other three mistakes or if you do not pick up exactly two jacks each time.
