year.this shocking fact, given that loneliness is reaching high levels in the uk with 3.1 million over 65s going more than a week without seeing a friend or family member has caused quite a debate. later retirement age is one idea for how the government might respond, but i think we can make a change without waiting for a new law.my solution? yup, you guessed it: the web. ok, im not mad enough to suggest that a piece of electronic equipment is a magic bullet(灵丹妙药) to loneliness, but i do, hand on heart, think that encouraging more older people to get online is the simplest and cheapest tool we can equip them with so they can reawaken old, or form new friendships.one of my favorite jobs as digital champion is judging age uks internet champion of the year award. looking through this years shortlist, it was obvious that each participant had been suddenly filled with a desire to socialize because of the way the net had widened their social circle. reading the shortlist, what also struck me was how far from rocket science getting older people online is.one of this years winners, brenda, has a great story thats both totally special and also very typical. brenda felt extremely lonely after her husbands death. several months later, she got online. having quickly got used to using the computer, brenda amazingly managed to make contact with a soldier who had stayed with her family during the second world war. starting up their friendship again after more than half a century is the kind of miracle(奇迹) the internet has made us almost take for granted but which would have been almost unthinkable just ten years ago.28. why did the author suggest the web as a solution? a. it is an all-purpose tool. b. it is strongly advised by the government. c. it is the only way older people make new friends. d. it can solve the problem of loneliness in an easy way.29. what did the author learn from the shortlist? a. participants had a similar social circle. b. participants found it difficult to get online. c. participants benefited greatly from the web. d. participants knew each other because of the net.30. as a lonely old woman, brenda _. a. searched hard for her old friend b. became a new friend of a soldier c. lived alone for more than half a century d. got in touch with an old friend on the net 31. what is the best title for the text? a. friends online b. debate on loneliness c. encourage older people d. help an internet beginnerda swedish man was dug out alive after being snowed in his car on a forest track for two months with no food, police and local media reported on saturday.the 45-year-old from southern sweden was found on friday, february17, too weak to say more than a few words.he was found not far from the city of umea in the north of sweden by snowmobilers who thought they had come across a ruined car until they dug their way to a window and saw movement inside.the man, who was lying in the back seat in a sleeping bag, said he had been in the car since december 19.“just incredible that hes alive considering that he had no food, but also since its been really cold for some time after christmas,” a rescue team member told regional daily vasterbottens- kuriren, which broke the news. ebbe nyberg, duty officer at the umea police, said police saw no reason to doubt that the man had been stuck in the car for a very long time.“we would not make up something like this. the rescue services were on site too and saw the same as us.” he told vasterbottens-kuriren. umea university hospital, where the man is recovering after being rescued by police and a rescue team, said in a statement he was doing well considering the circumstances.doctors at the hospital said humans would normally be able to survive for about four weeks without food. besides eating snow, the man probably survived by going into a dormant-like(休眠似的) state, physician stefan branth told vasterbottens-kuriren.“a bit like a bear that hibernates. humans can do that.” he said. “he probably had a body temperature of around 31 degrees which the body adjusted to. due to the low temperature, not much energy was used up.”“why the man ended up under the snow in the forest remains unknown,” police said. 32.who found the swedish man in the snow?a. snowmobilers. b. the police. c. a rescue team. d. local people.33.“police saw no reason to doubt that the man had been stuck
