8. By 'But locally it can be a boon", the author means ______ .
A. the ageing population is contributing to the weak British economy
B. the ageing population is having a strong effect on the young
C. some towns are benefiting a lot from the ageing population
D. old people control most of Britain's wealthPassage C Hip and hobbling 时髦与蹒跚齐行 Paragraph1
Not all towns are desperate to attract young people并不是所有城镇都渴望吸引年轻人
Nationally, an ageing population is a problem. But, locally it can be a boon. The over-50s control 80% of Britain's wealth, and like to spend it on houses and high-street shopping. The young “generation rent”, by contrast, is poor, distractible and liable to shop online.
在国际上,人口老龄化是个问题。但在地方范围内,这可能是个福音。在英国,50岁以上的人群掌握着80%的财富,并乐于将这些财富用于购置房产和商场购物。相比而言,年轻的“租房一代”经济比较拮据,很容易分心,且依赖网上购物。
Passage C Hip and hobbling 时髦与蹒跚齐行 9. What can be learnt from Paragraph 2?
Job-hunting for the young is difficult because of the liberated pension pots
B. Both the old and the young enjoy watching films at a cinema.
C. The financial crisis had little effect on over-65s employees.
D. Pensioners are trying hard to help young people find jobs.Passage C Hip and hobbling 时髦与蹒跚齐行 Paragraph2
People aged between 50 and 74 spend twice as much as the under-30s on cinema tickets. Between 2000 and 2010 restaurant spending by those aged 65-74 increased by 33%, while the under-30s spent 18% less. The pension pots liberated by George Osborne's budget earlier this year will likely pour into property. And while the young still struggle to find work, older people are retiring later. During the financial crisis full-time employment fell for every age group but the over-65s, and there has been a rash of older entrepreneurs. Pensioners also support the working population by volunteering: some 100 retirees in Christchurch help out as business mentors.年龄在50到74岁之间的人群花在电影票上的钱是30岁以下人群的两倍之多。在2000年到2010年间,65到74岁人群的餐厅费用增长了33%,而30岁以下人群则减少了18%。今年年初因乔治·奥斯本的新财政预算案而被释放的养老金池将很可能大量涌入流通市场。当年轻人还在找工作的苦海中挣扎时,老年人的退休年龄却越来越推后了。金融危机期间,各个年龄阶层的全职工作率都降低了,只有65岁以上的人群没有受到影响,并且还出现了大批的老年企业家。领取养老金的人还通过志愿服务来帮助工作人群:克莱斯特彻奇就有约100名退休人员志愿成为企业导师。Passage C Hip and hobbling 时髦与蹒跚齐行 10. Why is Manchester referred to as a 'supposed Meccas"?
A. Because it has a high unemployment rate.
B. Because it is assumed to attract many young people.
C. Because young employees used to gather around there.
D. Because its members-only clubs attract few young people.Passage C Hip and hobbling 时髦与蹒跚齐行 Even if they wanted to, most small towns and cities could not capture the cool kids. Mobile young professionals cluster, and greatly prefer to cluster in London. Even supposed meccas likeManchester are ageing: clubs in that city are becoming members-only, and there are anincreasing number of places, as one resident puts it, that “a 19-year-old wouldn't be seen deadin”. Towns that aim too young, like Bracknell and Chippenham, can find their high streets full ofclosed La Senzas (a lingerie chain) and struggling tattoo parlours. Outside Britain's capital, high concentrations of youth are commonly tied to high unemployment rates.即使很多小城镇希望吸引年轻人,它们也做不到。流动的年轻人喜欢扎堆,尤其是喜欢聚集在伦敦。即使是像曼彻斯特这样所谓的麦加圣地也在逐渐老龄化:城市里的俱乐部正转向会员制,正如一个当地居民所说,越来越多的地方“看不到一个十九岁的少年在其中醉生梦死”。像布拉科内尔和切本哈姆这样定位于年龄过小的年轻人的城市,很容易发现自己的商业区满是倒闭的La Senzas(一内衣连锁店)和艰难经营的纹身室。在英国首都之外,年轻人的聚集通常都与高失业率捆绑在一起。Passage C Hip and hobbling 时髦与蹒跚齐行 11. It can be inferred from the passage that ______ .
A. old wealthy retirees prefer living in towns to
living in cities
B a lively market aiming at baby boomers is waiting
to be developed
C. old people tend to stick with what they loved
while they were young
D. companies in big cities are trying their best to attract old people's attentionPassage C Hip and hobbling 时髦与蹒跚齐行 Meanwhile, with the over-50s holding the purse strings, the towns that draw them are likely to grow more and more pleasant. The lord mayor of Manchester, Sue Cooley, notes that decent restaurants and nice shops spring up in the favoured haunts of the old, just as they do in thetrendy, revamped boroughs of London. Latimer House, a Christchurch furniture store full ofretro clothing and 1940s music, would not look out of place in Hackney. Improved high streetsthen entice customers of all ages.
同时,由于50岁以上的人群手握着钱包,吸引他们的城镇正在变得越来越令人满意。曼彻斯特的荣誉市长苏·库利指出受老年人青睐的高档餐厅和精致的商店正在崛起,正如在伦敦时髦、改造过的街区一样。拉蒂摩之家,一家摆满复古服饰、播放着40年代音乐的克莱斯特彻奇家具店,在哈克尼也不会显得格格不入。改进后的商业街可以吸引各个年龄层的顾客了Conclusion To get the high score, we should
