The holidays are the best time to ask the elders in your family for advice. For most people, the approaching holiday season includes more time with the extended family, including the elder generation.
Unfortunately, older adults are often unseen in the popular media. Yet there's a big body of evidence that shows the benefits of older adults' wisdom and the value of developing communication across generations.
First, over the course of human history, older people have played very important roles as advice-givers. Anthropological (人类学) research shows that survival in pre-literate societies was dependent on the knowledge of the oldest members.
In recent times, most of the researches about intergenerational communication occur within formal programs, such as ones including older adults in public schools or having youth visit assisted living facilities. Also, you can apply many of the lessons of the researches to your own family gatherings.
There is clear evidence that it is good for young people to spend time with older adults. The youth who participated in intergenerational programs showed more respect toward older adults, less anxiety, and higher self-esteem. Research also shows that interacting with younger people is good for older adults. A systematic review found that older adults who participated in intergenerational programs were likely to experience more satisfaction with their lives, higher self-esteem and fewer symptoms of depression. Interactions during intergenerational programs can be positive even when an older adult is experiencing memory or cognitive problems.
Having children teach computer or video games to the older generations can be a fun way to spend time together. A study found that intergenerational games can help family members to bond. Another idea is to encourage the youth to ask older family members for their advice about life.
The youth can ask older adults specific questions about the lessons they learned from their life experiences.
The take-home message is that time with older relatives is one of the true gifts of the holiday season. Make the most of it by spending time with the older generation!
41. Which of the following statements would the author most probably agree with? ______
A. The popular media attaches great importance to the old.
B. Holidays are the perfect time to stay with old people.
C. Today's people like turning to the elderly for advice.
D. Old people become unwise due to their aging.
42. Why did the author mention the anthropological research in the third paragraph? ______
A. To state how modern societies develop.
B. To show young people are much cleverer.
C. To explain why today's aging turns out to be worse.
D. To prove older people are intelligent and experienced.
43. What can we know about the intergenerational programs? ______
A. They are helpful to both the old and the young.
B. They are unpopular with older people.
C. Their lessons aren't suitable for family gatherings.
D. Their participants don't include unhealthy older adults.
44. What is Paragraph 6 mainly about? ______
A. Some fun video games for older adults.
B. Advice from older people that is useful to the youth.
C. Effective ways of intergenerational communication.

American and British people both speak English of course.But sometimes it does not seem like the same language.In fact,there are some important differences between British English and American English.
First of all,they sound very different.Often,Americans don't say each word separately.They say several words together.Americans may say "I dunno" instead of "I don't know." Or they may say "Whaddya say?" instead of "What did you say?" However,the British are more careful in their speech.They usually say all the words and keep them separate.
Also,some letters have different sounds.For example,the Americans say the "a" in half like the "a" in cat.But the British say the "a" in half like the "o" in soft.Sound is not only the difference between British English and American English.Words sometimes have different meanings too.Some American words are never used in England. The same thing is true of some British words in America. For example,the vocabulary for cars and driving is very different.Americans drive trucks,but in England people drive lorries.
Many expressions are also different in the two countries.In England,if you are going to telephone your friends,you "phone them up".In America,you "give them a call".When you are saying goodbye in England you might say "Cheerio!"In America you might say "See you later."
There're also some differences in grammar.For example,Americans usually use the helping verb "do" when they ask a question.They say "Do you have a storybook?" But the British often leave out the helping verb.They say "Have you a storybook?"
All these differences can be confusing if you are learning English.But most languages are like this.Languages change over time.When people live in separate places,the languages change in different ways.This is what has happened to English.It can also happen to other languages,such as French.Many people in Canada speak French but their French is very different from the French of France.
46. What does the author think of the differences between American and British English?
A. American and British English are the same languages.
B. American and British English are quite different.
C. Although American English came from the British English,there are still some important differences.
D. There are slight differences between American and British English.
47. What does the underlined word "separately" mean?

C. In common. D. In different ways.
48. What does the underlined sentence "The same thing is true of some British words in America." mean?
A. The words of American and British English are the same.
B. The spelling of American and British English are the same.
C. Although they don't sound the same,the words are the same.
D. Some British English words are not used in American English.

In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartments. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.
Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. The price, which is the wage that employers must pay, increases. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics claim, an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.
Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.
Economic theory predicts the results of economic decisions such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be correct only if "other things are equal". Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.
51. There is the possibility that setting maximum rent may ______ .
A. cause a shortage of apartments
B. worry those who rent apartments as homes
C. increase the profits of landlords
D. encourage landlords to invest in building apartment
52. We can safely say that rent control ______ .
A. will always benefit those who rent apartments
B. is unnecessary
C. will bring negative effects in the long run
D. is necessary under all circumstances
53. The problem of unemployment will arise ______ .
A. if the minimum wage is set too high
B. if the minimum wage is set too low
C. if the workers are unskilled
D. if the maximum wage is set
54. The passage tells us ______ .
A. the relationship between supply and demand
B. the possible results of government controls
C. The necessity of government control
D. the urgency of getting rid of government controls
55. Which of the following statements is NOT true? ______
A. The results of economic decisions can not always be predicted.
B. Minimum wage can not always protect employees.
C. Economic theory can predict the results if economic decisions of other factors are not changing.
D. Economic decisions should not be based on economic theory.
56. A self-service flower shop operated by a college student in Beijing is attracting many young customers,Chinese media reported.
Different from traditional shops in the capital,the young storekeeper surnamed Wang opened the first self-service flower shop where people can select flowers and pay via mobile payment systems including We-chat and Ali-pay.
Born after 2000 and a lover of literature,the young man said "he begins the startup(创业) because it will not take up his time". "Besides,people can go to flower shops at any time," he added. "I cannot focus on reading when I have to serve customers." So Wang opened the self-service flower shop after doing market research.
Most young customers like shopping in a free environment,and hate promotion(推销) from clerks,he explained,adding that customers can have their questions answered about the names of flowers through mobile Apps.
Even though there is no shopkeeper,the operation has attracted many young customers and proved to be a success,at least for now.
Although he does not sell flowers in the shop in person,Wang said he would go to the shop to take care of the flowers though he couldn't afford it full time.
"It is a business with a little money,and it can't cause a huge loss if a burglary (偷盗) happens," he said,adding that he trusts people.
(1) How do people pay for flowers?( no more than 8 words) ______
(2) Why does Wang open the self-service flower shop?( no more than 20 words) ______
(3) How can customers have their questions answered about flowers?( no more than 10 words) ______

高分句型:
1.The truth(主语) is that (引导表语从句)everyone will have one of those periods when (引导定语从句,修饰periods)things seem to be going wrong,so(连接并列句) you don't have to worry so much.

5.As还可引导让步状语从句."尽管".但是注意,as引导方式状语从句时从句必须倒装.而且这种倒装和一般的倒装不一样.as从句的倒装一般是把从句的表语或作状语的副词提到as之前,(如果表语是一个带有不定冠词a或an的单数名词,倒装后a或an必须省略).
例如:Though he is a little boy,he knows a lot.如果变成由AS引导,就必须变成:
Little boy as he is,he knows a lot.
