Chinese people are now living happier and longer than before. According to the latest study, the number of people over 60 years old is 130 million, making up 10 percent of the whole population, and increases at a rate of 3 percent per year. This marks that China has stepped into the aged society. It is the Chinese tradition to respect, love, support, and help old people, and the aging problem has received more and more attention from the society.
China has built the system to protect and serve old people’s legal (法律的) rights and interests, gradually developed social insurance, public health services and social welfare (福利) projects for old people, and also applied the minimum living standard protection (最低生活保障) system for the aged who are unable to work and receive no supports. Now, China is bringing the aging problem into the work of sustainable (持续的) development according to China’s conditions, to build and develop a social security system for old people, set up a system combined with the state, collectives (集体) and families to solve the problem of “the elderly should be provided for”. The life of China’s old people is more colorful along with the fast and sound economic development of the country.
Old people in today’s China who don’t have to consider their food and clothing hope to live more colorfully. The happy psychology (心态) of the aged makes them thirsty for knowledge. Strong and healthy old people can be seen everywhere of the country.

Thousands of people living in the Chinese capital will celebrate the start of the Chinese  New year by heading for the ski resorts (滑雪场). Never mind that Beijing"s dry weather seldom produces snow. It is cold enough in winter for snow-making machines to make a covering for the hills north to the capital. And the rapid growth of a pleasure-seeking middle class has formed the basis for this new craze(热潮)     
Since Beijing"s first ski resort was opened ten years ago, the sport has enjoyed astonishing increase. There are now more than a dozen resorts. Clothes markets in the city have added bright colored ski suits to their winter collections. Mr. Wei, a manager of a newly-opened ski resort in Beijing, sees the growth of an industry that could soon lead Chinese to head for the ski resorts of Europe, In recent years ski resorts offering natural snow have opened in China. But many are in faraway areas of the country and can"t really match the equipment and services of some ski resorts in Europe.
Beijing"s skiing craze is partly a result of the recent increase in private (私有的) cars. This has led to the growth of a leisure industry in the capital"s suburbs (郊区), which until the late-1990s were unreachable to ordinary people, According to Mr. Wei, about 40% of the visitors to his resort come in their own cars. The rest are bused in by schools, businesses or government offices.  
The problem is making money. Starting ski resorts requires quite a lot of money; hiring land from the local government, preparing the hills, buying snow machines, making sure there are enough water and electricity to run them, and buying ski equipment for hiring out to customers.
The ski resort where Mr. Wei works cost nearly $4 million to set up. And. as so often in China when someone comes up with a good idea, many others rush in and price wars break out. Beijing now offers some of the cheapest ski training classes in the world, though with most people rather new to the sport, expecting a few more doing the same job.
小题1:What does this text mainly talk about?
A.Convenience for skiers brought about by private cars.
B.Skiing as a new way of enjoying one"s spare time.
C.Things to be considered when starting a ski resort.
D.A sudden increase of ski training classes in Beijing.
小题2:Why are some Chinese likely to go skiing in Europe?
A.To visit more ski areas.B.To ski on natural snow.
C.For a large collection of ski suits.D.For better services and equipment.
小题3:The underlined words "leisure industry" in Paragraph 3 refer to ----
A. transport to ski resorts                    B. production of family cars
C. business of providing spare time enjoyments  D part-time work for people living in the suburbs
小题4: What is the main problem in running a ski resort?
A.Difficulty in hiring land.B.Lack of business experience.

For computer users, there is no bigger excitement than tossing out your old PC and upgrading to a newer, faster and cleaner machine. With hardware designers like Intel, pushing newer, faster products every year, and new software requiring even more powerful machines, companies and consumers have little choice but to go along.
But this rapid turnover is having a serious effect on the planet. Producing a personal computer consumes large quantities of natural resources. A recent study by the United Nations estimates the energy required to produce a single new computer is equivalent to nearly two barrels of oil. And that doesn"t include the 22 kg of chemicals or the 1,500 kg of water used in the manufacturing process.
In fact, pound for pound(均等地), the process for making a car is about 500% more efficient than that for making a computer. That doesn"t matter so much 20 years ago when personal computers were few and far between, but times have changed. These days, computers are found nearly everywhere and sales continue to grow. The number of PCs in use topped one billion in 2002.
Waste in production is only half the problem. Old computers, especially the monitors, are full of dangerous substances, which need to be carefully recycled. The problem is sure to expand over the coming years as users replace their boxy CRT monitors with LCD flat displays.
Europe now requires that 70% of parts from old computers be recycled, but the study’s authors say that’s also part of the problem. The solution, they insist, is for governments and companies to encourage people to use their computers longer, and upgrade rather than replace. But considering that much of the world’s recent economic growth has come from spending on computers and information technology, that advice may sound like wishful thinking. 
小题1:What do computer users have to do every few years according to the passage?
A. Push newer, faster products.
B. Produce more powerful machines.
C. Consume large quantities of natural resources.
D. Upgrade to a newer, faster computer.
小题2:What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A.The pound.B.The process.

小题3:We can infer from the last paragraph that ____.
A.governments and companies will surely encourage people to use their computers longer
B.governments and companies will probably encourage people to replace their personal computers
C.the world"s economic has been growing without people"s spending on computers and information technology
D.all parts from old computers are now recycled in Europe
小题4:The purpose of writing this passage is ____
A.to encourage companies to push newer, faster personal computers
B.to encourage people to design more new software
C.to encourage people to save their personal computers
D.to encourage people to spend more money on computers and information technology
