【2017·山东省泰安市高三第一轮复习质量检测More than one in four children alive in Britain today will celebrate their 100th birthday，official figures showed.The special figures show a huge social change，with today’s children likely to survive far longer than their parents or grandparents.Of the 12.4 million children aged 16 and under,3.3 million (27%) will become someone who is a hundred years old or older.In a class of 30 children，eight can live to be 100.And the rest of the children are likely to get to an old age，even though they will not make it to three figures.
Experts warned that children may live to 100，but that they will not get their state pension until they are 70 or beyond.The state pension age is rising to 66 for both men and women by 2020，and the Government has warned it will continue to rise.Laith Khalaf，a pension expert，said，“Living
to an old age is lucky if you can afford it，but a nuisance if you
can’t.Those without enough savings will be depending on the
state pension which will be changed.”
It also increases the possibility of millions of people
surviving until their 100th birthday with a poor quality of life
because of poor health and little money.Millions of older
people have no pensions，no savings and no plans about how they are going to pay for their retirement other than to carry on working.If the older population demands more resources，then
they have to come from their own wealth or the government.
Laith said，“Millions of people will be spending over a third of their lives in retirement.It is high time that we
reformed the state pension system.We want to make it fair for
future generation.”

阅读理解2017·山东省泰安市高三第一轮复习质量检测The World Bank estimates there are about 650 million
mobile phone users in African countries south of the Sahara
Desert.That is greater than the number of users in the United States and European Union.
Samia Melhem works for the World Bank to increase
information technologies in Africa.She says mobile phones are
the fastest growing technology on the continent.
“Faster than TV，and definitely faster than electricity.More people have access to mobile phones and therefore
communication.More people have Internet access today in
Africa than they have access to water，clean water，or even sanitation (卫生设备)．So we can say that this has been the most significant revolution in terms of changing the African landscape and how people live their daily life.”
CNN television recently named seven ways of life that have been revolutionized because of mobile phones.They include political activism，education，entertainment，disaster management，agriculture and health.
Another area is banking.Reports say half or more of the adults in Gabon，Kenya and Sudan use mobile money.Rene Mendy sells goods in the streets of Dakar，Senegal.But he never had enough money to open a bank account.
Now he uses a mobile phone banking service called Orange Money.With his telephone，he can add or take out as little as one dollar.He can make payments and send money to family members who live far away.
Orange Money says it serves four million customers in ten countries.The World Bank’s Samia Melhem notes that the French company is facing competition from other mobile banking services.
“The mobile banking is a huge trend.And people in the
West don’t understand it，because most people have bank
accounts and credit cards.It—mobile banking—is the instant possession of cash at a much lower cost.The cost is the cost of sending a message，which is almost nothing compared to what traditional transfer agents，like Western Union，would charge 10 dollars or more for a particular money transfer.”

It was the first snow of winter—an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now, I had been able to dress myself for recess(课间休息), but today I would need some help. Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher at Princess Elizabeth School near Hamilton, Ontario, had been through first snow days many times in her long career, but I think she may still remember this one.
I managed to get into my wool snow pants. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’t fit well. It was a hand-me-down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and matching scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots. In her calm, motherly voice she said, “By the end of winter, you will be able to put on your own boots.” I didn’t realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence.
I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot. Like most children, I expected the adult to do all the work. After much wiggling and pushing, she managed to get the first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.
I announced, “They’re on the wrong feet.” With the grace that only experience can bring, she struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again. Then I said, “These aren’t my boots, you know.” As she pulled the offending boots from my feet, she still managed to look both helpful and interested. Once they were off, I said, “They are my brother’s boots. My mother makes me wear them, and I hate them!” Somehow, from long years of practice, she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying little girl. She pushed and shoved, less gently this time, and the boots were returned to their proper place on my feet. With a great sigh of relief, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now, where are your gloves?”
I looked into her eyes and said, “I didn’t want to lose them, so I put them into the toes of my boots.”
1. According to the passage, the little girl got from her brother.
A. the wool snow pants and the jacket
B. the jacket and the boots
C. the jacket and the hat
D. the boots and the gloves
2. What made it so hard for the teacher to help the little girl put her boots on?
A. The gloves in the toes of the boots.
B. The slowness of the teacher.
C. The wrong size of the boots.
D. The unwillingness of the girl.
3. It can be inferred that before the little girl finally went out to enjoy the first snow of winter, the teacher had to help her put on her boots .
A. once B. twice C. three times D. four times
4. Which of the following sentences from the text BEST indicates that the teacher is very considerate?
A. In her calm, motherly voice she said, “By the end of winter, . . .” (Paragraph 2)
B. With the grace that only experience can bring, she struggled to. . . (Paragraph 4)
C. . . . , she still managed to look both helpful and interested. (Paragraph 4)
D. . . . , she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying little girl. (Paragraph 4)
