This is a lot of time, especially for hard-charging high-performers who are not used to having any free time. While some job seekers spend hundreds—even thousands—of hours discovering daytimetelevision, others seem to thrive on activities that boost their professional careers or resol ve family issues when they aren’t working.Having an extended period of free time in the prime of one’s life can in fact be a unique opportunity to focus on volunteer service, professional education or personal growth.Community InvolvementFor Lisa Perez, the wakeup call was burned pork chops. An executive who previously hadn’t been particularly interested in home and health had become obsessed with homemaking during a stint of unemployment.She realized that cleaning and organizing her home wasn’t helping her job search. Nevertheless, “I made lists of 50 things to do every day,” says Ms. Perez, a political and public-relations consultant in Scottsdale, Ariz. “My house was spotless, just so I’d have something to do.”One day, her boyfriend didn’t arrive on time for dinner because he had to work late, and her pork chops were ruined. She threw a fit. “I’d never been a person like that,” she says. “So I decided to stop feeling sorry for myself, and go out and do something productive.”Ms. Perez, 35, resolved to become an active volunteer for the duration of her search. She gave her time to a health-care concern, a housing program and a political campaign.The work bolstered her self-confidence. “Volunteering takes the focus off of you. One thing you have that’s still valuable is your time. And, of course, you learn that there are thousands of people with a life that’s much worse than yours,” she says.Volunteer assignments are also great ways to meet powerful and well-connected people. Over a six-month period, hervolunteering evolved into working as a paid consultant and then as a full-time employee, a job she still holds today. In all, she was unemployed for eight months.Before her job loss, she thought she didn’t have time to volunteer while working. “Now, eve n though I have a demanding job, I still volunteer, because of what I got out of it,” says Ms. Perez.Continuing EducationGene Bellavance, a 36-year?old information-technology project manager, took another route during his unemployment. When he was laid off from a steel company near Cleveland, he knew his immediate prospects were bleak. He expected his search to take a year. He faced a decision: take a job that would set back his career or hold out for an offer he really wanted.Mr. Bellavance, single and virtually debt free, shifted his finances into survival mode. He cashed out his pension, sold his house, unloaded things he didn’t need at garage sales, and rented an apartment with a roommate. Then, he says, “I signed up for every benefit I could find.”B ut he wasn’t just waiting out the year. He spent the rest of his search updating his skills, including becoming certified in new database and project-management software. “You have to invest in yourself,” Mr. Bellavance says. “I estimated what technology was going to be the most beneficial and chose applications that were going to be pervasive, that were right for my market, and that were going to ensure top pay.”In addition to income from the occasional IT-consulting assignment, he relied on a combination of displaced-worker-retraining grants and unemployment benefits. “I went out and found the classes, submitted the paperwork, and dealt with thebureaucracy. You have to stay after them, keeping your benefits moving forward. It’s up to you to make it work with your overall transition plan,” he says.His job search was one month shy of the full year he’d expected. He looked for work during his training and says he would have finished the certification programs even if he’d been hired before completing them.“People should not feel guilty” about accepting government aid, he says. “I saw this in a lot of people. They felt they were some kind of loser for taking benefits. My advice is: Get all you can. You’ve been paying for these programs in your entire career, and you may as well start to benefit from them.”Family MattersIn addition to pursuing training or volunteering, some displaced careerists use their time off work to attend to family matters. Many executives rediscover their children or find time to help their parents.Stanford Rappaport held three jobs in San Francisco, including high-tech and teaching positions. When he was laid off from the high-tech job last year, he knew it might be a long slog before he could get another post like it in the Bay Area. “I was able to do the math,” says Mr. Rappaport, 46. “The number of people laid off: huge; and the number of available jobs: miniscule. At the time, I thought it might be two or three years before the tech industry recovered.”Mr. Rappaport’s remaining j ob, a part-time faculty position with City College of San Francisco, didn’t pay enough to s。

大学英语六级改革适用（作文）模拟试卷283(题后含答案及解析) 题型有：1. WritingPart I Writing1．For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition entitled Credit Card on Campus. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words following the outline given below. 1．现如今大学生使用信用卡现象越来越普遍，针对这一现象陈述你的观点。
2．针对你的观点，陈述原因。
3．给出结论。
正确答案：Credit Card on Campus More and more college students currently are inclined to use credit cards in their daily life. They use credit cards to buy clothes in shopping malls, and subscribe books on the internet. But I think the use of credit card should be restricted. The reasons are as follows. First, it may lead to our financial crisis. We are often not aware of how much we have spent, not to mention the establishment of financial ability. Second, it may lead to our credit crisis. When the money is overdrawn, if you do not pay it back in time, the bank will record this improper behavior, and the file will last for 10 years. At last, it may put your privacy in danger. When the magnetic card does not work, it may expose your personal information to others. This may lead to the steal of the account or other crimes carried out in the name of you. To sum up, there are advantages and disadvantages of using credit card on campus. But taking balance of payments, credit and safety into consideration, I personally suggest that the use of credit card on campus should be restricted.解析：第一段：简要阐述大学生使用信用卡现象极为普遍，并陈述你的观点，即校园信用卡应该限制使用。
大学英语六级改革适用（作文）模拟试卷75(题后含答案及解析) 题型有：1. WritingPart I Writing1．For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay entitled Private Schools in City X. Your essay should start with a brief description of the chart. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.正确答案：Private Schools in City X According to the chart, it is clear that the number of private schools in city X has had a tremendous growth since 2001. But the degree of satisfaction to private schools in these years is decreasing gradually. There are mainly three reasons accounting for this phenomenon. Firstly, the government has adopted positive education policies to encourage the development of private schools. Secondly. private schools are usually better equipped with superior teaching facilities and have more comfortable living and learning environments. Thirdly, private schools have greater flexibility in adjusting curriculum design. These advantages attract many students. Money, however, does not guarantee high-quality education. Sound guidelines are essential to the successful administration of private schools. Most students of private schools are from rather wealthy families. If not well directed and properly disciplined, these privileged young people may turn out to be new aristocrats, unable to bear hardship and survive the fierce competition in modern society.解析：第一段简要指出柱状图中两个系列的变化趋势：私立学校数量增多，但公众对其满意度下降。

The sense of social responsibility is very important to us. If everyone has a good sense of social responsibility, we can build a better society and a more prosperous country. How can sense of social responsibility be strengthened? To start with, children should be taught about good moral outlook, so that when they grow up, they become law-abiding and responsible citizens. Furthermore, the humanistic education is vital, especially for university students because they are the future pillars of our country. Last but not least, it is necessary to encourage people to care for others, help others through all kinds of propaganda. If all the citizens have sound sense of social responsibilities, it is hopeful that the world will enjoy a better future. Therefore, let’s take our social responsibilities and contribute to our society.解析：本文是一篇议论文，讨论加强社会责任感的话题。

2．对此学校应采取什么措施。
3．学生自身应该怎么做。
正确答案：Campus Safety Campus safety is a big issue and has become a focus in education, especially when tragic events happened time and time again. The tragic event serves as a wake-up call. It warns that there is still much to be done to safeguard the students. Schools across the country should take safety education seriously and conduct it compulsorily. Besides, they should revise their emergency preparedness plans and tighten security. For example, security guards should patrol on campus around teaching buildings and student dorms, and enforce strict entrance checks, barring entry of anyone carrying a gun or a knife. As students, we should enhance our awareness of safety—that is, being aware of safety issues and potential hazards in our daily life. For example, foresee the possible incidents and keep away from crowded places. Lock the dorm at night whenever we are alone in the dorm If possible, we should also have some first-aid training in order to help us survive in emergency situations.解析：第一段：通过介绍近期社会热点校园安全事件，引出主题。
大学英语六级改革适用（作文）模拟试卷204(题后含答案及解析) 题型有：1. WritingPart I Writing1．1. 网络对传统教育产生了很大的影响，越来越多的人趋向于网络学习2. 产生这种现象的原因正确答案：The Impact of the Internet on Education As Internet application is becoming wider and wider, the Internet has already permeated traditional education and has tremendous impact on education. As a result, more and more people tend to choose online education. There are some reasons for this phenomenon. First, online learning breaks the limits of time and space traditional education encounters and provides flexible learning opportunities for all people. Second, with the online learning, one can learn lessons from the best teachers of top schools which one can’t have access to traditionally. Third, online learning gives freedom to students, so they can schedule their study according to their own pace of learning. Finally online learning enables them to discuss with others and ask questions freely without seeing each other, which is perfect for shy people. In order to develop online learning, there should be more schools providing all kinds of online lessons for people who have different needs, and more people should seize these learning opportunities to enrich their knowledge. 涉及知识点：作文2．Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Offering Your Seat. You should start with a brief description of the picture, then explain its intended meaning, and express your views on it. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.正确答案：Offering Your Seat As can be seen in the picture, a young student is offering his seat to an elderly man. Passengers around, a middle-aged man and a mum with a baby, are complimentary about what the kid has done. The implied message of the picture is to encourage people to offer seats to those in need. This is the moral act expected by Chinese people, who are known for century-long tradition of caring for the elderly. In my opinion, offering seats in buses should be a choice welcomed and appreciated by the society, but not a forced decision by moral coercion. This news story is not exactly new to us: a young man declined the demand from an old man to offer his seat and they fought for it. To avoid this brutal scene, I think the elderly should understand that a rejection from the young is nothing personal. Maybe, the young man is indeed tired or sick. In this case, he is actually the one in need. Therefore, it is advisable to encourage the young to offer their seats at their choice, but not bully them into doing so by calling them “immoral” if they do not agree to our request. 涉及知识点：作文3．Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled On Dialects. You should include in your essay for-and-against views on speaking dialects in public and give your own opinion. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.正确答案：On Dialects There is a controversial issue about whether dialects should be prohibited in public. Opinions vary greatly on this issue. Some deem that dialects should be forbidden in public. There are so many people with various dialects in public that if everybody just speaks their own dialects, it can easily lead to chaos. In order to avoid this situation, we have to choose mandarin as the official language, for it can be understood by most Chinese. However, others argue that everybody has the right to speak dialects. Local dialects have been used for thousands of years, and they are valued as part of the traditional culture. Therefore they shouldn’t be abandoned randomly. In addition, dialects still enjoy popularity in the daily communication among people from the same place. From my perspective, local dialects should be maintained and they can be used in public as long as they do not cause misunderstanding among the audience. Moreover, we should take responsibility to preserve endangered dialects. 涉及知识点：作文4．Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a poster about an academic report. You should write at least 150 words following the outline given below.1. 近期将有一场学术报告，说明地点和时间；2. 学术报告的大体内容和意义；3. 欢迎广大师生参加。

2．出现这种现象的原因。
3．应如何杜绝这种现象。
正确答案：It’s not uncommon that some journalists make up false or misleading stories about celebrities’illnesses and crimes. For instance, the death of the famous writer Jin Yong appeared in several news reports recently, which proved to be false. People may wonder why so many journalists cook up false stories. More often than not, the reason is all about personal interests. Most journalists create misleading news in order to draw public attention so as to make themselves more popular or to win certain prizes. To achieve these goals, they try to get something out of nothing and rumor about famous figures regardless of those people’s privacy. Now, it’s high time for China’s journalism supervisory bodies to deal with the false news reports. They should take stringent measures to prevent all possible false news. For instance, journalists who are found to manipulate news should be severely punished and banned from news writing for ten years or more.解析：第一段：描述目前虚假新闻屡见不鲜的现状。
大学英语六级改革适用（作文）模拟试卷275(题后含答案及解析) 题型有：1. WritingPart I Writing1．For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition entitled Should Graduates Spend Much on Job hunting? You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words by allowing steps. 1．目前毕业生在求职上花的钱越来越多。
2．人们对此看法不一。
3．你的看法。
正确答案：Should Graduates Spend Much on Job Hunting? Nowadays, according to a recent survey, job hunting, including clothing, transportation, resume designing and training or even hunting itself, costs graduates more and more money. As to this phenomenon, different people have different views. Some say it is necessary while others don’t think so. Those who support spending money on job hunting claim that graduates need to spend money in embellishing resumes and buying suitable clothes, which can give interviewers a good impression and increase their chance of success. However, for those who disagree, the high expenditure can increase their parents’ financial burden since most students have no regular income. Apart from that, the decorated resumes do little help to find a job because most HR managers pay more attention to skills. In my opinion, there is nothing wrong for graduates to invest some money on job hunting. But they should bear in mind that it is their knowledge, skills as well as experience that matter a lot. Consequently, they must have a rational attitude toward what they should buy and how much money they should spend.解析：第一段：描述社会现状。

2．我的看法及理由。
3．总结自己的观点。
正确答案：Should Online Music and Songs Be Allowed to Download for Free? With the development of technology, more and more people are making use of the Internet and enjoying downloading all types of materials. Some are especially fond of downloading free music. They argue that free music downloads not only enrich their lives, but also are good for the music industry because they help increase the popularity of music. However, from my point of view, it is not advisable to allow free music downloads. For one thing, this practice violates the intellectual property rights of musicians. For another, this will exert a negative impact on the sales of musical products such as CDs, which may do harm to the whole music industry. Without good returns, who would like to invest in the music industry? In order that the music industry will develop healthily, we had better ban free music downloading. Let’s all start to do so from ourselves.解析：第一段：目前越来越多的人热衷于在网上免费下载音乐，认为这样做有好处。

Speculators anticipate this variety of ads would bring satisfactory profits. However, they are extremely wrong. Apparently, we come to realize that these advertisements bring widespread destruction to our life. For one thing, consumers are entitled to be clear about products, but fake ads violate the very right, covering up the truth and even threatening our life and property. For another, in terms of economy, they are huge obstacles to fair competition, disturbing normal marketing orders. In consequence, the expansion of consuming demand is restricted, which hinders the economic development. In the light of what is mentioned above, some necessary measures must be taken to eliminate fake and unhealthy advertisements. The government is supposed to issue more related rules and regulations to protect consumers’legal rights and impose severe punishments on those illegal merchants. What’s more, we should also endeavor to boycott these advertisements.解析：第一段指出社会上出现很多虚假不健康广告。

Some netizens who are far too immersed in the virtual world find it difficult to make friends in real life.

Some people who prefer online shopping think that it has many advantages. First of all, the web-stores can keep best-selling products updated for customers. Besides, it is very convenient and time-saving for people to purchase whatever they like online at home. However, others who stick to shopping in entity shops have their reasons. Firstly, they argue that though time-saving, it’s a little bit complicated to pay on the web. Secondly, they believe the best way to guard against the fake and poor-quality commodities is to shop in traditional way. Therefore, they don’t show any interest in shopping online. As far as I am concerned, the advantages of online shopping outweigh its disadvantages, so it’s believed that online shopping will even tu-ally be an irresistible trend in the 21st century.解析：第一段：指出目前出现了网上购物热。
大学英语六级改革适用（作文）模拟试卷74(题后含答案及解析) 题型有：1. WritingPart I Writing1．For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay entitled Changes in People’s Diet in China. Your essay should start with a brief description of the table. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.正确答案：Changes in People’s Diet in China According to the figures in the table, the consumption of grain, which is the main food of Chinese people, is 49% in 2008, but it decreases to 45% in 2012. On the contrary, the consumption of milk and meat increases to 13% and 21% respectively in 2012. These figures indicate some changes in people’s attitudes towards living standard and life style. Since China began her economic reform in 1978, various kinds of foods have enriched the food market. Milk and meat, which were seldom seen on people’s dinner tables before, have now become common dishes in Chinese families. Accordingly, the decreasing consumption of grain shows that Chinese people have more and more varieties of main food to choose. From the table we can see that Chinese people’s diet is more balanced than ever before. With the publicity of living a healthy life, further changes will occur in people’s diet. In the future, the proportion of fruit and vegetables is more likely to increase.解析：第一段指出在过去的五年里，中国人饮食中的主食一一谷类的消费量逐步下降，而牛奶和肉类消费则呈上升趋势。

WritingPart I Writing1．For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay by commenting on the saying “To talk big about the lofty ideal without doing any practical work will get one divorced from reality.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.正确答案：To talk big about the lofty ideal without doing any practical work, as the remark has it, will get one divorced from reality. We should set ourselves realistic goals. Besides, we should start from now and transform our goals into concrete steps and then complete all steps one by one. (提出观点段) There are many facts supporting that ideality should be based on reality and its realisation lies in doing practical work. First of all, lofty ideal is difficult and even impossible to achieve. For example, it is definitely ridiculous for common people to set a goal as surpassing the Olympic champion, Usain Bolt, in running. Furthermore, to pursue an unrealisticgoal, people may find them painfully incapable and may use all means to make it. For example, some athletes take stimulants to get good marks in race and be punished at last. In addition, people who aim too high but make no effort will cry with empty dreams at last. (论证观点段) All mentioned above tells us that to make dream come true, we must base it on reality.

You should write at least 150 words following the outline given below: 1．很多学生进入大学后不再以学习为重点2．出现这种现象的原因3．我的看法正确答案：Should Study Still Be Emphasized in Universities? Nowadays there is a fallacy that study is not college students’ primary task any more. So there is a very common phenomenon that some students are late for or even absent from school. There are many reasons accounting for this phenomenon. To begin with, some students take it for granted that it is time to relax in universities. Moreover, a good number of undergraduates are busy taking part-time jobs to earn money, thus relieving their families’ financial burden to some extent. Some show great enthusiasm in participating in a variety of extracurricular activities, while others fall in love. In addition, there is relatively less competition, which makes some students lack motivation for study. As for me, learning is a lifelong career. We should keep studying day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual capacity. In fact, study is demanding to university students, as they learn to think critically in their academic field, enhance their problem-solving abilities, and improve their communication and practical skills. Therefore, study will always be the top concern for university students.解析：第一段开门见山指出目前有种错误的观念，认为进入大学后就不需要再学习了。
大学英语六级改革适用（作文）模拟试卷76(题后含答案及解析) 题型有：1. WritingPart I Writing1．For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled On Innovation. Your essay should start with a brief description of the picture. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.正确答案：On Innovation The picture depicts two men who are trapped in two bottles respectively. The man on the left looks helpless for he simply cannot find a way out, while the other man on the right breaks the bottle with a hammer and walks out with a happy look. It is not difficult to get across the message conveyed by the picture—to break the bottlenecks one has to resort to innovation. This is particularly true for China today. Firstly, as labor costs in China keep rising, to save cost and maintain its competitive edge in the global market, China has to rely more on technological advances brought by innovation. Secondly, innovation should be encouraged to inject vitality into China’s traditional and lifeless systems in all fields, so as to improve efficiency and better meet the demands of Chinese people. Lastly, innovation in key sectors, such as energy-saving technology may define China’s future role as a world leader or follower. To conclude, standing still and doing nothing may lead to destruction, while innovation will ensure a brighter future.解析：本文讨论了创新求变的重要性。
Section BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.Into the UnknownThe world has never seen population ageing before. Can it cope?[A] 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.[B] For the next ten years a succession of books, mainly by Americans, sounded the alarm. They had titles like Young 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.[C] Since then the debate has become less emotional, not least because a lot more is known about the subject. Books, conferences and research papers have multiplied. International organisations such as the OECD and the EU issue regular reports. Population ageing is on every agenda, from G8 economic conferences to NATO summits. The World Economic Forum plans to consider the future of pensions and health care at its prestigious Davos conference early next year. The media, including this newspaper, are giving the subject extensive coverage.[D ] Whether all that attention has translated into sufficient action is another question. Governments in rich countries now accept that their pension and health-care promises will soon become unaffordable, and many of them have embarked on reforms, but so far only timidly. That is not surprising: politicians with an eye on the next election will hardly rush to introduce unpopular measures that may not bear fruit for years, perhaps decades.[E ] The outline of the changes needed is clear. To avoid fisca(财政的）meltdown, public pensions and health-care provision will have to be reined back severely and taxes may have to go up. By far the most effective method to restrain pension spending is to give people the opportunity to work longer, because it increases tax revenues and reduces spending on pensions at the same time. It may even keep them alive longer. John Rother, the AARP’s head of policy and strategy, points to studies showing that other things being equal, people who remain at work have lower death rates than their retired peers.[F] Younger people today mostly accept that they will have to work for longer and that their pensions will be less generous. Employers still need to be persuaded that older workers are worth holding on to. That may be because they have had plenty of younger ones to choose from, partly thanks to the post-war baby-boom and partly because over the past few decades many more women have entered the labour force, increasing employers’ choice. But the reservoir of women able and willing to take up paid work is running low, and the baby-boomers are going grey.[G] In many countries immigrants have been filling such gaps in the labour force as have already emerged (and remember that the real shortage is still around ten years off). Immigration in the developed world is the highest it has ever been, and it is making a useful difference. In still-fertile America it currently accounts for about 40% of total population growth, and in fast-ageing western Europe for about 90%.[H] On the face of it, it seems the perfect solution. Many developing countries have lots of young people in need of jobs; many rich countries need helping hands that will boost tax revenues and keep up economic growth. But over the next few decades labour forces in rich countries are set to shrink so much that inflows of immigrants would have to increase enormously to compensate: to at least twice their current size in western Europe’s most youthful countries, and three times in the older ones. Japan would need a large multiple of the few immigrants it has at present. Public opinion polls show that people in most rich countries already think that immigration is too high. Further big increases would be politically unfeasible.[I] To tackle the problem of ageing populations at its root, “old” countries would have to rejuvenate(使年轻) themselves by having more of their own children. A number of them have tried, some more successfully than others. But it is not a simple matter of offering financial incentives or providing more child care. Modern urban life in rich countries is not well adapted to large families. Women find it hard to combine family and career. They often compromise by having just one child.[J] And if fertility in ageing countries does not pick up? It will not be the end of the world, at least not for quite a while yet, but the world will slowly become a different place. Older societies may be less innovative and more strongly disinclined to take risks than younger ones. By 2025 at the latest, about half the voters in America and most of those in western European countries will be over 50—and older people turn out to vote in much greater number than younger ones. Academic studies have found no evidence so far that older voters have used their power at the ballot box to push for policies that specifically benefit them, though if in future there are many more of them they might start doing so.[K] Nor is there any sign of the intergenerational warfare predicted in the 1990s. After all, older people themselves mostly have families. In a recent study of parents and grown-up children in 11 European countries, Karsten Hank of Mannheim University found that 85% of them lived within 25km of each other and the majority of them were in touch at least once a week.[L] Even so, the shift in the centre of gravity to older age groups is bound to have a profound effect on societies, not just economically and politically but in all sorts of other ways too. Richard Jackson and Neil Howe of America’s CSIS, in a thoughtful book called The Graying of the Great Powers, argue that, among other things, the ageing of the developed countries will have a number of serious security implications.[M] For example, the shortage of young adults is likely to make countries more reluctant to commit the few they have to military service. In the decades to 2050, America will find itself playing an ever-increasing role in the developed world’s defence effort. Because America’s population will still be growing when that of most other developed countries is shrinking, America will be the only developed country that still matters geopoliticallyi 地缘政治上）.Ask me in 2020[ N] There is little that can be done to stop population ageing, so the world will have to live with it. But some of the consequences can be alleviated. Many experts now believe that given the right policies, the effects, though grave, need not be catastrophic. Most countries have recognised the need to do something and are beginning to act.[ O] But even then there is no guarantee that their efforts will work. What is happening now is historically unprecedented. Ronald Lee, director of the Centre on the Economics and Demography of Ageing at the University of California, Berkeley, puts it briefly and clearly: “We don’t really know what population ageing will be like, because nobody has done it yet. ”46. Employers should realise it is important to keep older workers in the workforce.47. A recent study found that most old people in some European countries had regular weekly contact with their adult children.48. Few governments in rich countries have launched bold reforms to tackle the problem of population ageing.49. In a report published some 20 years ago, the sustainability of old age pension systems in most countries was called into doubt.50. Countries that have a shortage of young adults will be less willing to send them to war.51. One-child families are more common in ageing societies due to the stress of urban life and the difficulties of balancing family and career.52. A series of books, mostly authored by Americans, warned of conflicts between the older and younger generations.53. Compared with younger ones, older societies tend to be less innovative and take fewer risks.54. The best solution to the pension crisis is to postpone the retirement age.55. Immigration as a means to boost the shrinking labour force may meet with resistance in some rich countries.Paper--More than Meets the EyeA) We are surrounded by so much paper and card that it is easy to forget just how complex it is. There are many varieties and grades of paper materials, and whilst it is fairly easy to spot the varieties, it is far more difficult to spot the grades.B) It needs to be understood that most paper and card is manufactured for a specific purpose, so that whilst the corn-flake packet may look smart, it is clearly not something destined for the archives. It is made to look good, but only needs a limited life span. It is also much cheaper to manufacture than high grade card.C) Paper can be made from an almost endless variety of cellulose-based material which will include many woods, cottons and grasses or which papyrus is an example and from where we get the word "paper". Many of these are very specialized, but the preponderance of paper making has been from soft wood and cotton or rags, with the bulk being wood-based.Paper from WoodD) In order to make wood into paper it needs to be broken down into fine strands. Firstly by powerful machinery and then boiled with strong alkalies such as caustic soda, until a fine pulp of cellulose fibers is produced. It is from this pulp that the final product is made, relying on the bonding together of the cellulose into layers. That, in a very small nutshell, is the essence of paper making from wood. However, the reality is rather more complicated. In order to give us our white paper and card, the makers will add bleach and other materials such as china clay and additional chemicals.E) A further problem with wood is that it contains a material that is not cellulose. Something called lignin. This is essential for the tree since it holds the cellulose fibres together, but if it is incorporated into the manufactured paper it presents archivists with a problem. Lignin eventually breaks down and releases acid products into the paper. This will weaken the bond between the cellulose fibers and the paper will become brittle and look rather brown and careworn. We have all seen this in old newspapers and cheap paperback books. It has been estimated that most paper back books will have a life of not greater than fifty years. Not what we need for our archives.F) Since the lignin can be removed from the paper pulp during manufacture, the obvious question is "why is it left in the paper?" The answer lies in the fact that lignin makes up a considerable part of the tree. By leaving the lignin in the pulp a papermaker can increase his paper yield from a tree to some 95%. Removing it means a yield of only 35%. It is clearly uneconomic to remove the lignin for many paper and card applications.G) It also means, of course, that lignin-free paper is going to be more expensive, but that is nevertheless what the archivist must look for in his supplies. There is no point whatsoever in carefully placing our valuable artifacts in paper or card that is going to hasten their demise. Acid is particularly harmful to photographic materials, causing them to fade and is some cases simply vanish!H) So, how do we tell a piece of suitable paper or card from one that is unsuitable? You cannot do it by simply looking, and rather disappointingly, you cannot always rely on the label. "Acid-free" might be true inasmuch as a test on the paper may indicate that it is a neutral material at this time. But lignin can take years before it starts the inevitable process of breaking down, and in the right conditions it will speed up enormously.I) Added to this, as I have indicated earlier, paper may also contain other materials added during manufacture such as bleach, china clay, chemical whiteners and size. This looks like a bleak picture,and it would be but for the fact that there are suppliers who will guarantee the material that they sell. If you want to be absolutely sure that you are storing in, or printing on, the correct material then this is probably the only way.J) Incidentally, acids can migrate from material to material. Lining old shoe boxes with good quality acid-free paper will do little to guard the contents. The acid will get there in the end.Paper from RagK) Paper is also commonly made from cotton and rag waste. This has the advantage of being lignin-free, but because there is much less cotton and rag than trees, it also tends to be much more expensive than wood pulp paper. You will still need to purchase from a reliable source though, since even rag paper and card can contain undesirable additives.L) A reliable source for quality rag papers is a recognized art stockiest. Many water color artists insist on using only fine quality rag paper and board.M) The main lesson to learn from this information is that you cannot rely on purchasing archival materials from the high street. The only safe solution is to purchase from specialist suppliers. It may cost rather more, but in the end you will know that your important and valuable data and images have the best home possible.1. The corn-flake packet is cheaper than high grade card.2. There are a lot of materials which can be used for making paper, but the superiority ones are soft wood, cotton and rags.3. During the whole manufacturing process, the final product is made from a pulp of cellulose fibres.4. In order to make white paper and card, the makers will add bleach.5. Liguin is essential for the tree but it will make paper easy to break.6. Many paper producers will preserve lignin during manufacture, because leaving the lignin will make more paper from a tree.7. Acid is particularly harmful to photographic materials.8. If the lignin is removed from the paper, the paper will be more expensive.9. Although free of lignin, paper made from cotton and rag waste can also cost more money than wood pulp paper because there is much less cotton and rag than trees.10. What we can learn from "Paper from Rag" is that you had better buy archival materials from specialist suppliers.快速阅读问答题36、回答36-46题：Women with low literacy suffer disproportionately more than men, encountering more 36 in finding a well-paying job and being twice as likely to end up in the group of lowest wage earners, a study released on Wednesday said.Analysis by the Institute for Women's Policy Research (IWPR. found women at all levels of 37 tend to earn less than men, but it's at the lowest literacy levels that the wage gap between genders is most striking.Women with low literacy are twice as 38 as men at the same skill level to be among the lowest earners, bringing in $300 a week or less, the report said."Because women start off so low in terms of wages, having higher literacy and more skills really 39 a big difference," said Kevin Miller, a 40 research associate at IWPR and co-author of the study.Women need to go 41 in their training and education level to earn the same as men, Miller said.The 42 was based on 2009 National Assessment of Adult Literacy surveys, the most recent data 43 , and focused on reading skills, not writing and numeric literacy. That data was 44 from a nationally representative sample of 19,714 people aged 16 and older, living in households or prisons.Data showed about one-third of American adults have low literacy levels, and more than 36 percent of men and 33 percent of women fall into that 45 , the institute said.A. pattern I. conductedB. senior J. independentC. longer K. literacyD. difficulties L. analysisE. category M. likelyF. collected N. furtherG. positions O. makesH. availableSection BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived.You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.46、回答46-56题：A) The legislation concerning financial reform focuses on helping regulators detect and defuse (减少....的危险性) the next crisis. But it doesn't address many of the underlying conditions that can cause problems.B) The legislation gives regulators the power to oversee shadow banks and take failing firms apart, convenes a council of superregulators to watch the megafirms that pose a risk to the full financialsystem, and much else.C) But the bill does more to help regulators detect the next financial crisis than to actually stop it from happening.In that way, it's like the difference between improving public health and improving medicine: The bill focuses on helping the doctors who figure out when you're sick and how to get you better rather than on the conditions (sewer systems and air quality and hygiene standards and so on) that contribute to whether you get sick in the first place.D) That is to say, many of the weaknesses and imbalances that led to the financial crisis will survive our regulatory response, and it's important to keep that in mind. So here are five we still have to watch out for:1. The Global Glut (供过于求) of SavingsE) "One of the leading indicators of a financial crisis is when you have a sustained surge in money flowing into the country which makes borrowing cheaper and easier," says Harvard economist Kenneth Rogoff. Our crisis was no different: Between 1987 and 1999, our current account deficit--the measure of how much money is coming in versus going out--fluctuated between 1 and 2 percent of gross domestic product. By 2006, it had hit 6 percent.F) The sharp rise was driven by emerging economies with lots of growth and few investment opportunities-think China-funneling their money to developed economies with less growth and lots of investment opportunities. But we've gotten out of the crisis without fixing it. China is still growing fast, exporting faster, and sending the money over to US.2. Household Debt-and Why We Need ItG) The fact that money is available to borrow doesn't explain why Americans borrowed so much of it. Household debt as a percentage of GDP went from a bit less than 60 percent at the beginning of the 1990s to a bit less than 100 percent in 2006. "This is where I come to income inequality," says Raghuram Rajan, an economist at the University of Chicago. "A large part of the population saw relatively stagnant incomes over the 1980s and 1990s. Credit was so welcome because it kept people who were falling behind reasonably happy. You were keeping up, even if your income wasn't."H) Incomes, of course, are even more stagnant now that unemployment is at 9 percent. And that pain isn't being shared equally: inequality has actually risen since before the recession, as joblessness is proving sticky among the poor, but recovery has been swift for the rich. Household borrowing is still more than 90 percent of GDP, and the conditions that drove it up there are, if anything, worse.3. The "Shadow Banking" MarketI) The financial crisis started out similarly severe, but it wasn't, at first, a crisis of consumers. It was a crisis of banks. It never became a crisis of consumers because consumer deposits are insured. But large investors-pension funds, banks, corporations, and others--aren't insured. But when they hear that their collateral ( 附属担保品 ) is dropping in value, they demand their money back. And when everyone does that at once, it's like an old-fashioned bank run: The banks can't pay everyone off at once, so they unload all their assets to get capital, the assets become worthless because everyone is trying to unload them, and the banks collapse.J) "This is an inherent problem of privately created money," says Gary Gorton, an economist at Princeton University. "It is vulnerable to these kinds of runs." This year, we're bringing this shadow banking system under the control of regulators and giving them all sorts of information on it and power over it, but we're not doing anything like deposit insurance, where we simply make the deposits safe so runs become an anachronism.4. Rich BanksK) In the 1980s, the financial sector's share of total corporate profits ranged from about 10 to 20 percent. By 2004, it was about 35 percent. Simon Johnson, an economist at MIT, recalls a conversation he had with a fund manager. "The guy said to me, 'Simon, it's so little money! You can sway senators for $10 million!?'"Johnson laughs ruefully (后悔地). "These guys [ big investors ] don't even think in millions. They think in billions."L) What you get for that money is favors. The last financial crisis fades from memory and the public begins to focus on other things. Then the finance guys begin nudging (游说). They hold some fundraisers for politicians, make some friends, explain how the regulations they're under are onerous and unfair. And slowly, surely, those regulations come undone. This financial crisis will stick in our minds for a while, but not forever. And after briefly dropping to less than 15 percent of corporate profits, the financial sector has rebounded to more than 30 percent. They'll have plenty of money with which to help their friends forget this whole nasty affair.5. Lax ( 不严格的) RegulatorsM ) The most troubling prospect is the chance that this bill, if we'd passed it in 2000, wouldn't even have prevented this financial crisis. That's not to undersell it: It would've given regulatorsmore information with which to predict the crisis. But they had enough information, and they ignored it. They get caught up in boom times just like everyone else. A bubble, almost by definition, affects the regulators with the power to pop it.N) In 2005, with housing prices running far, far ahead of the historical trend, Bemanke said a housing bubble was "a pretty unlikely possibility". In 2007, he said Fed officials "do not expect significant spillovers from the subprime market to the rest of the economy." Alan Greenspan, looking back at the financial crisis, admitted in April that regulators "have had a woeful record of chronic failure. History tells us they cannot identify the timing of a crisis, or anticipate exactly where it will be located or how large the losses and spillovers will be."In the 1980s and 1990s people experienced no substantial increase in terms of income, which brought about the popularity of credit.47、Financial crisis is a crisis of banks in that shadow banking may cause banks to fail.48、The finance guys make friends with politicians in the hope of making some burdensome and unfair regulations cancelled.49、The legislation concerning financial reform offers regulators the power of supervising shadow banks and disintegrating companies on the verge of bankruptcy.50、In terms of the effect of unemployment, it is more deeply felt by the poor than by the rich.51、Even if there was enough information to predict there would be financial crisis, the regulators still chose to ignore it.52、Emerging economies with insufficient investment opportunities have invested much money in developed countries.53、Regulators with power tended to fail again and again concerning forecasting a financial crisis.54、A fund manager or large investor is considered absurdly rich by an economist from MIT.55、Large investors' deposits can be made safer if shadow banking system is under the control of regulators.36、根据下列短与答案，填写36-46题。
