Very old people do raise moral problems for almost everyone who comes in contact with them.
Their values-this can"t be repeated too often-are not necessarily our values. Physical comfort,
cleanness and order are not necessarily the most important things. The social services from time
to time find themselves faced with a flat with decaying food covered by small worms, and an old
person lying alone in bed, taking no notice of the worms. But is it interfering(干涉) with personal
freedom to insist that they go to live with some of their relatives so that they might be taken better
care of? Some social workers, the ones who clear up the worms, think we are in danger of carrying
this concept of personal freedom to the point where serious risks are being taken with the health and
safety of the old.
Indeed, the old can be easily hurt or harmed. The body is like a car, it needs more mechanical
maintenance(机械维修,保养) as it gets older. You can carry this comparison right through to the
provision of spare parts. But never forget that such operations are painful experiences, however
good the results will be. And at what point should you stop to treat the old body? Is it morally right
to try to push off death by seeking the development of drugs to excite the forgetful old mind and to
activate the old body, knowing that it is designed to die? You can"t ask doctors or scientists to decide,
because so long as they can see the technical opportunities, they will feel bound to give them a try, on
the principle that while there"s life, there"s hope.
When you talk to the old people, however, you are forced to the conclusion that whether age is happy
or unpleasant depends less on money or on health than it does on your ability to have fun.
B. The moral problems raised by old people.
C. The personal freedom for the old.
D. Old people"s viewpoint on life.
B. Very old people are able to keep their room clean.
C. Very old people like to live with their children.
D. Social services have nothing to do with very old people
3. According to the author, which of the following is right?
B. Too much emphasis has been put on old people"s values.
C. The human body can"t be compared to a car.
D. It is easy to provide spare parts for old people.
B. the conclusion you come to
C. your talk to the old people
D. whether age is happy or unpleasant

People
People may live for up to 120 years and use new technology to help when people go blind, deaf
and have other problems. The number of people over a hundred years old could go from 135,000
today to 2.2 million people by 2050. By 2015 people think that 100 million workers will be able to
work from home for a company in a different country by using the Internet.
Money
Worldwide e-business will become even more successful with online shops that sell special products
for each person, which will be brought to their house the next day.
Environment
The technology for making energy from wind and the Sun is growing very quickly. In the future
wind and Sun energy could become much cheaper and many more countries could use it. This would
be very useful in poor countries. The air in big cities would also become much cleaner and healthier as
a result.
Society and culture
The Internet will help to create more worldwide friendships. Families may spend more time together
as people will be able to do 24-hour online banking and shopping.
Technology
The new science of "nanotechnology" (very small robots or machines) will make all sorts of products
smaller and lighter. Very, very small machines could take away rubbish, make things in factories, and

The purpose of a letter of application(求职信) is to help you to "sell" yourself. It should state__1_
the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have__2_. It should be simple,
human, personal and brief without _ 3 _ out any necessary facts.
In writing a letter of application, keep in __4__ that the things a possible employer is most _5__ to
want to know about are your qualifications(条件), your achievements and your aims. The opening
paragraph is perhaps the most important part. _6__ the first few sentences fail to _7__ the reader"s
attention, the rest of the letter may not be __8_ at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs
or interests of the employer not __9_ your own need or desires. For example, instead of beginning
with "I saw your _ 10_ in today"s newspaper," you might say "I have made a careful _11_ of your
advertising during the past six months" or "I have made a survey in my neighborhood to find out how
many housewives _12_ your product and why they like it. "
Try to _13_ generalities. Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now _14_. College
graduates looking for their first positions often ask "What can I _15_ in a letter? Employers want
experience-which, naturally, no ___16___ has." The answer is that everything you have ever done
is _17_.
It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter. _18__ a specific request for an interview
or give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent _ 19_ is to enclose
(内附) a stamped, self-addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it _ 20_ for a possible employer
to get in touch with you.
