　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A.B.C和D项中，选出最佳选项。

　　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 aging 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’s 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’t 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 ideas 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” any more. We’ve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.

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

　　A. has made people feel younger

　　B. has changed people’s social position

　　C. has changed people’s understanding of age

　　D. has slowed down the country’s social development

　　2. The underlined word “one” refers to ________.

　　A. a society

　　B. America

　　C. a place

　　D. population

　　3. “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 to their parents young or old

　　D. take more physical exercises suitable to their age

　　4. If a’ 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it _________.

　　A. normal

　　B. wonderful 

　　C. unbelievable

　　D. unreasonable

　　1. C 主旨题。根据第一、二段的最后一句及第三段可判断。

　　2. A 细节题。one是a society的同位语且后面跟了一个定语从句，可以通过分析句子结构得出正确答案。

　　3. B 细节题。全文最后一句话给出了提示。

　　4. A 推理题。可仔细阅读第二段中倒数第二句话。

　　阅读理解。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

The wigwams were of wagon-top shape with straight sides and ends, made by bending young trees to form the round shape.

Doorways at each end served also as windows, The Iroquois Indians built trunk walls all around their villages. The wall had only one opening, They could quickly close this opening if their enemies came near.

　　Interestingly, the Choctaw Indians in Mississippi also lived in a wigwam of a most primitive(原始的) construction, but different from those of the Iroquois Indians. The Choctaw Indians’ wigwams, made from mud, cane and straw, were in the form of a bee-hive. The covering was made of a long, tough grass. A post in the centre supported the roof. A hole in the top admitted the light, and allowed the smoke to pass out.
