For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked [A], [B], [C] and [D]. For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage. Into the Unknown The world has never seen population ageing before. Can it cope? Until the early 1990s nobody much thought about whole populations getting older. The UN had the foresight to convene a “world assembly on ageing” back in 1982, but that came and went. By 1994 the World Bank had noticed that something big was happening. In a report entitled “Averting the Old Age Crisis”, it argued that pension arrangements in most countries were unsustainable. For the next ten years a succession of books, mainly by Americans, sounded the alarm. They had titles like Young vs Old, Gray Dawn and The Coming Generational Storm, and their message was blunt: health-care systems were heading for the rocks, pensioners were taking young people to the cleaners, and soon there would be intergenerational warfare.

M: Well, I left senior high school after Id done my A levels. I took four subjects, French, German, chemistry and art. I really wanted to study art. It didn turn out like that, because a friend of my fathers offered me a job. Its an accountant in London . A quite big firm, you know. W: I see. In your application, you say that you only spent nine months with this firm of accountants. Why was that? M: Well, to be quite honest, I didn like it. I just couldn seem to get interested in the job although there were fairly good prospects. So I got a place at the art college to do a three-year diploma course. W: We like our executive staff to undergo a thorough training. Young men on our trainee scheme would have to work through every branch in the company. And one of them is accountancy. Presumably you wouldn like that. M: Well, if I had to do it, I suppose... But I was thinking that my French and German would mean that I could specialize in overseas work. Id like to be some sort of an export salesman and travel abroad. W: You know, the glamour of traveling abroad disappears when youve got a hard job of work to do. Its not all fun and game. M: Oh yes, I realize that. Its just that my knowledge of languages would be useful. W: Thats all, Mr. Pitt. You should hear from us in a couple of weeks. One way or the other, or we may ask you to come back for another chat. Thank you. M: Goodbye, Mrs. Williams. What did Mr.Pitt do after he left senior high school?
