residential home for the elderly with a nursery school in the same building. the children and the residents eat lunch together and share activities. in the afternoons, the residents enjoy reading or telling stories to the children, and if a child is feeling sad or tired, there is always a kind lap to sit on and a cuddle(拥抱). there are trips out and birthday parties too. the advantages are enormous for everyone concerned. the children are happy because they get a lot more individual attention, and respond well because someone has time for them. they see illness and death and learn to accept them. the residents are happy because they feel useful and needed. they are more active and more interested in life when the children are around and they take more interest in their appearance too. nowadays there is less and less contact between the old and the young. there are many reasons for this, including the breakdown of the extended family, working parents with no time to care for aging relations, families that have moved away, and smaller flats with no room for grandparents. but the result is the sameincreasing numbers of children without grandparents and old people who have no contact with children. and more old people who are lonely and feel useless, along with more and more families with young children who desperately need more support. its a major problem in many societies. thats why intergenerational programmes, designed to bring the old and the young together, are growing in popularity all over the world. there are examples of successful attempts all over the world. using young people to teach it skills to older people is one obvious example. using old people as volunteer assistants in schools is another, perhaps reading with children who need extra attention.【小题1】a nursery school is a place where _.a. future nurses are trainedb. the elderly livec. children are taken care ofd. the old join in activities【小题2】which is true according to the passage?a. a number of assistants are employed to take care of the children.b. the new concept benefits both the elderly and the children.c. the children become stronger after getting more individual attention.d. the children learn that sick people will die.【小题4】what does the “intergenerational programmes” in paragraph 4 refer to?a. combining elderly homes with nursery schools.b. letting the children and the residents eat together.c. asking young people to teach it skills to older people.d. using old people as volunteer assistants in schools.【小题5】 what is the best title for the passage?a. old peoples homes in franceb. building bridges of lifec. a solution to the elderly problemd. childrens new happy life【答案】【小题1】c【小题2】b【小题3】d【小题4】a【小题5】b 【解析】阅读下列短文，从每题所给的a.b.c和d项中，选出最佳选项。an idea that started in seattles public library has spread throughout america and beyond. the concept is simple: help to build a sense of community in a city by getting everyone to read the same book at the same time.in addition to encouraging reading as a pursuit (追求) to be enjoyed by all, the program allows strangers to communicate by discussing the book on the bus, as well as promoting reading as an experience to be shared in families and schools. the idea came from seattle librarian nancy pearl who launched (发起）the if all of seattle read the same book project in 1998. her original program used author visits, study guides and book discussion groups to bring people together with a book, but the idea has since expanded to many other american cities, and even to hongkong.in chicago, the mayor(市长）appeared on television to announce the choice of to kill a mockingbird as the first book in the one book, one chicago program. as a result, reading clubs and neighbourhood groups sprang up around the city. across the us, stories emerged of parents and children reading to each other at night and strangers chatting away on the bus about plot and character. the only problem arose in new york , where local readers could not decide on one book to represent the huge and diverse population. this may show that the idea works best in medium-sized cities or large towns, where a greater sense of unity(一致）can be achieved .or it may show that new yorkers rather missed the point ,putting all their energy and passion into the choice of the book rather than discussion about a book itself. ultimately, as nancy points out, the level of success is not measured by how many people read a book, but by how many people are enriched by the process, or have enjoyed speaking to someone with whom they would not otherwise have shared a word.16. what is the purpose of the project launched by nancy?a. to invite authors to guide readers.b. to encourage people to read and share.c. to involve people in community service.d. to promote the friendship between cities.17. why was it difficult for new yorkers to carry out the project?a. they had little interest in reading.b. they were too busy to read a book. c. they came from many different backgroundsd.t hey lacked support from the local government18. according to the passage, where would the project be more easily carried out?a. in large communities with little sense of unityb. in large cities where libraries are far from homec. in medium-sized cities with a diverse populationd .in large towns where agreement can be quickly reached19. the underlined words “shared a word” in paragraph 5 probably mean a. exchanged ideas with each otherb. discussed the meaning of a wordc. gained life experience d. used the same language20. according to nancy, the degree of students of the project is judged by_a. the careful selection of a proper bookb. the growing popularity of the writersc. the number of people who benefit from reading.d. the number of books that each person reads.【参考答案】1620、bcdac 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的a.b.c和d项中，选出最佳选项。a company planning to open the first hotel in space says it is on target to accept its first paying guests in 2012 despite critics questioning the investment and the length of time for the multibilliondollar project.the barcelonabased architects of the galactic suite space resort say it will cost $4.4 million for a threenight stay at the hotel. this price also includes an eightweek training course on an island. during their stay, guests would see the sunrise 15 times a day and travel around the world every 80 minutes.galactic suite ltds ceo xavier claramunt says the project will put his company in a leading position of a new industry with a huge future ahead of it, and forecasts space travel will become common in the future. “its very normal to think that your children, possibly within 15 years, could spend a weekend in space” he told reuters television.a promising space tourism industry is beginning to take shape with construction in progress in new mexico of spaceport america, the worlds first facility built specifically for passengers. british industrialist richard bransons space tours firm, virgin galactic, will use the facility to send tourists to space at a cost of $200,000 a ride.galactic suite ltd, set up in 2007, hopes to start its project with a single pod (分离舱) in orbit 280 miles above the earth. “it will take a day and a half to reach the pod, and the passengers will join it for three days,” claramunt said. more than 200 people have expressed an interest in traveling to the space hotel and at least 43 people have already reserved it.the numbers are similar for virgin galactic with 300 people already paid or signed up for the trip, but unlike branson, galactic suite says they will use russian rockets to transport their guests into space from a spaceport to be built on an island in the caribbean. but critics have questioned the project, saying the lengt
