Chinese and Cuban women"s teams. As we sat before the television set, with our eyes fixed on the screen, we experienced every kind of feeling. When the two teams played neck and neck, we were on pins and
needles, anxious as to what would come next, and when our team fell behind our hearts were in our
mouths. Watching the game between those two teams is not only a matter of great joy. For more than that
it provides food for thought. Just see how the Chinese women won the game by their cooperation (合作), by their excellent skill, their effort and strong will. A Chinese saying goes, "When two competent
opponents (比赛的双方) meet, the strong-minded one will win. "This is the spirit of the Chinese Women"s Volleyball Team. If every Chinese showed some of the spirit, never losing heart in times of difficulty and
remaining clear-minded in times of advantage (优势), then our nation would stand in the vanguard (前列) of the world family of nations, just as the Chinese Women"s Volleyball Team has done, is doing and will
do.

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

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.

for each person, which will be brought to their house the next day.

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.

as people will be able to do 24-hour online banking and shopping.

smaller and lighter. Very, very small machines could take away rubbish, make things in factories, and
