　　Ⅲ.阅读理解

　　A serious problem for today’s society is who should be responsible for our elderly(老年人) and how to improve their lives. It is not only a financial problem but also a question of the system we want for our society. I would like to suggest several possible solutions to this problem.

　　First，

　　employers should take the responsibility for their retired employees. To make this possible，

　　a percentage of profits should be set aside for this purpose. But when a company must take life­long responsibility for its employees，

　　it may suffer from a commercial disadvantage due to higher employee costs.

　　Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual. This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement. This does not seem a very fair model since some people have enough trouble paying for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years. This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor.

　　In addition，

　　the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly. This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions(养老金). Furthermore，

　　some institutions should be created for senior citizens，

　　which can help provide a comfortable life for them. Unfortunately，

　　as the present situation in our country shows，

　　this is not a truly viable answer. The government can seldom afford to care for the elderly，

　　particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young.

　　One further solution is that the government or social organizations establish some working places especially for the elderly where they are independent.

　　To sum up，

　　all these options(选择)have advantages and disadvantages. Therefore，

　　it is reasonable to expect that some combination of these options may be needed to provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations.

　　31．What is the passage mainly about？

　　A．The problems faced by the old in society.

　　B．Why we should take responsibility for the old.

　　C．How we can improve the lives of the old.

　　D．Where the old can go to get their pensions.

　　32．According to the passage，

　　how can the government help to improve the lives of retired people？

　　A．Set aside some profits to help people with problems after they retire.

　　B．Increase savings levels of people during their working years.

　　C．Increase the discounts for food and transport for the old.

　　D．Make available pensions for those who have retired.

　　33．The underlined word “viable” most probably means “________”.

　　A．impossible

　　B．practical

　　C．useful

　　D．successful

　　34．What can be concluded from the passage？

　　A．Taking care of the old is mainly an issue of money.

　　B．Employers should allow their workers to retire at a later age.

　　C．Becoming independent should be the goal of most old people.

　　D．There is no single solution to the problems of the old.

　　Ⅳ.补全对话

　　根据对话内容，从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。

　　—There is an art festival at school this month.__35__

　　—Well， I am considering whether I will take part in it.

　　—Why？ You dance so well.__36__

　　—Yes， I am always looking forward to the chance. But unluckily， I hurt my left ankle last Sunday.

　　—Oh， that is terrible！ Have you seen a doctor？

　　—Yes， nothing serious. But I have to rest for a week.

　　—__37__

　　—Better. I can walk for a while but still can't jump or run.

　　—Don't worry. As the doctor said， I think you will be OK soon. There is still three weeks left for the festival. Time is enough for you to recover yourself.__38__

　　—Good idea.__39__If I know well of the rhythm ahead of time， then what I need to do after recovery is only to practice the dance.

　　—Yes， so it is not necessary to consider giving it up now.

　　A．What do you think of it？

　　B．We all think it is a good chance for you to show yourself.

　　C．What program will you prepare for it？

　　D．I hope you are better now.

　　E．Why not do some preparations for your dance during these days to save time？

　　F．How are you feeling now？

　　G．I can choose the music to dance now.

　　课时作业(十五)

　　Ⅰ.1.B　考查时态。电话在“我”进门之前一直响个不停，应该使用过去进行时。

　　2．C　考查动词(词组)辨析。experience体验，经历。表示“去度假”要说go on a holiday; 表示“尝试”要用try，而try out指“试验，试用”；表示“听说过”要用hear of 而不是hear。

　　3．D　根据句子结构分析：第一空是非谓语动词作状语，strike 与逻辑主语Taiwan为动宾关系，所以用过去分词作状语；第二空是句子的谓语，且事件发生在过去，所以选D。

　　4．A　考查副词短语的区别。how far有两个用法，其一是用于对距离的提问，其二是询问到什么程度或范围；how soon表示多久以后；how often询问频率；how long询问多长时间。本题是说，学生们想知道他们与新来的教师会相处得如何，how far表示程度，修饰go with a new teacher。

　　5．D　unfortunately不幸的是，符合语意：两名中年乘客掉进了海里，不幸的是，没有一个会游泳。

　　6．B　考查动词辨析。动词beat表示“连续不断地击打、拍打”。而hit表示“击中”；strike表示“打，击”；pat表示“轻拍”。

　　7. B　It occurs to sb that…某人突然想到……，若用strike则应改为Did it strike you that…？

　　8. A　本题考查动词词组辨析。句意：很遗憾大多数减肥者最后又胖了起来。end up doing以……告终。

　　9．D　“手提箱消失”是在“回到家”之前，因此用过去完成时。

　　10．B　be buried in埋头于，聚精会神于；be caught in遭遇到，被困住；be stuck in被困于，陷入。根据语境B项合适。

　　.本文为记叙文。故事发生在1989年美国大地震中，一个父亲靠一个诺言(a promise)救出了被困在废墟下长达38个小时的儿子。

　　11．B　only to do sth表示“结果却，不料”，作结果状语，表示该结果在主语的预料之外。

　　12.

　　A　这四个选项都是英语习语，根据本段第一句an 8. 2 earthquake almost flattened America判断，选择A项。

　　13.

　　D　句意：……他想起了他曾对儿子许下的诺言……。memorize是“背诵，熟记”的意思，不合题意。

　　14.

　　A　从结构上分析，该句是省略了谓语动词的省略句，省略谓语之后，意义仍然清楚；如不省略动词，则谓语使用第三人称单数happens。从意义上分析，可排除C、D两项。

　　15.

　　A　表示“流泪”，这几个动词都可以表示这个意义，但句式搭配不同，其表现形式分别为Tears fill his eyes. Tears come into his eyes. He bursts into tears.

　　16.

　　B　句意：他不停地想起他对儿子许下的诺言。

　　17.

　　B　dig掘(土)，挖；dig through在……里挖掘；dig out 发掘出；dig into 钻研。由句意知选B。

　　18.

　　D　从结构上分析，应该用现在分词作伴随状语。

　　19.

　　C　come on表示劝说，鼓励，意为“振作点”。

　　20.

　　D　one line意为“一句话(台词)”。A项中的one word干扰性较大，它表示“一个词”，如果用words 是正确的。

　　21.

　　A　for oneself为自己；by oneself单独地，独自；of oneself自行地，自动地；to oneself独享，独自拥有。

　　22.

　　C　alive作表语，其含义与dead相对应。

　　23.

　　D　pull back意为“使后退”，这里指把一块大石头推开。

　　24.

　　B　注意这四个词的区别：sound (各种)声音；voice (人们说话的)嗓音；noise (不悦耳的)噪音；tone (人们说话的)语气，语调。

　　25.

　　B　这是表示将来的虚拟语气，主句中用“would＋动词原形”，从下文的句子中也能找到类似的句子。

　　26.

　　A　句意： 你来救我时，他们也会得救。

　　27.

　　C　此题包含一个固定句型：There are…left 还有……剩余下来。

　　28.

　　D　句意：房屋倒塌时，形成了三角空隙。而make room与 make space 意为“(有意识地)为……腾出空间”。

　　29.

　　C　come out出来。

　　30.

　　A　从上下文意义判断，此句为原因状语从句。

　　. 老年人的生活是当今非常严重的社会问题。然而并没有单一的一个方法可以解决这个问题。必须几个方法结合起来，才能给老年人提供必要的帮助。

　　31．C　根据文章第一段可得出答案。

　　32．D　根据第四段前两句话可得出答案。

　　33．B　文章第四段说明政府可以通过税收提高老年人的养老金，但不幸的是目前国家的状况表明政府根本无法提供更多的资金来关注老人，因此，这是个不切实际的解决办法。

　　34．D　最后一段最后一句话说明，要解决老年人的问题使用单一的办法是行不通的，必须要综合使用以上提到的几种解决办法(some combination of these options)。
