Here are a few choices:* Tell him you know and will keep it a secret.* Tell him its not right and ask him not to do it again.* Learn from him.What you do matters.

Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or order. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways-education, medicine and business. Quietly, the graying(人口老化) of America has made us a very different society-one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages. A persons age no longer tells you anything about his/her position, marriage or health. There is no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isnt as strong as it used to be. It doesnt surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing. Many people say, “I am much younger than my mother or my father was at my age.” No one says “Act your age” any more. Weve stop looking with surprise at older people, who act in youthful ways.50. It can be learned from the text that the aging of the population in America _. A. has changed peoples social position B. has changed peoples understanding of age C. has made people feel younger D. has made people feel older51. The underlined word “one” in paragraph 1 refers to _. A. a society B. America C. a place D. population52. “Act your age” means people should _. A. show respect for their parents young or old B. do the right thing at the right age C. be active when they are old D. take more physical exercise suitable to their age53. If a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the textwould most probably consider it _. A. unbelievable B. wonderful C. normal D. unreasonableC London Underground The worlds first subway was built in London in 1863. At the time，the government was looking for a way to reduce traffic problems in the city of London. The poor areas of the city were so crowded with people that it was almost impossible for horse carriages to get through. The city officials were interested in trying to make it possible for workers to live outside of London and travel easily to work each day. If people had a cheap and convenient way that they could depend on to go to and from work, they would relocate their homes outside of the city. This would help ease(减轻) the pressure of too many people living in the poor parts of London. From these problems, the idea of the London Underground, the first subway system, was born. The plans for building the Underground met with several problems and delays (推迟), but the fast track was finally opened in January 1863. A steam train pulled the cars along the fast underground track which was 6 kilometers (3.7 miles) long. About 30,000 people got on the subway the first day. Riders were treated to comfortable seats (standing up while the train was moving was not allowed), and pleasant decorations inside each of the cars. However, the smoke from the engine soon filled the air in the tunnels with ash and soot(煤灰), as well as chemical gases. Fans had to be put in the tunnels later to keep the air clean enough for people to breathe. Even with its problems, riding in the Underground did catch on. It carried 9 million riders in its first year.54. What led the British government to build the London Underground？ A. Traffic jams and pollution. B. Population and pollution. C. Overcrowding and traffic jams. D. The poverty and traffic jams. 55. How did the London Underground solve the smoke problem？ A. It made the tunnels larger. B. It put fans in the tunnels. C. It cleaned the chemical gases in the tunnels. D. It reduced the number of passengers riding in the train.56. How many passengers did the worlds first subway carry in its first year? A. 9,000 B. 90,000 C. 9,000,000 D. 90,000,00057. Which of the following is TRUE？ A. To relocate the workers homes outside London，the government built the subway. B. There were not so many problems and delays when the first subway was built. C. The subway greatly eased the pressure of traffic. D. There were not enough seats for the passengers the first day the subway opened.DAbout a year ago, a couple with three children moved into the apartment next door to mine. I never heard any noise from the children, but the parents were always yelling at the kids. We often met in the hallway when we were coming or going. I always spoke, but the only answer I got was a “Hello” from the four-year-old girl. One afternoon when I returned, they were just coming out of their apartment and the little girl was holding the door open for the others. I remained in the car doing unnecessary things. But when I looked up I saw the little girl was still holding the door open, waiting for me. I hurried as much as I could and thanked her. I was really touched by her act of kindness. That afternoon I was at the K-Mart and I bought a white Teddy bear for her. The next day, there was a knock on the door and it was the little girl and her father. She was very proud of the bear and thanked me like I had never been thanked before. Now when we meet in the hall, we all speak in a friendly manner. As time passes, I dont hear that yelling as often as before. Last night we had about four inches of snow. I looked out at my car and wondered how I was going to keep my doctors appointment. I went out to remove the snow. But when I opened my front door, I found my car was there with all the snow removed. You couldnt imagine how I felt at that moment. I thanked that family in my heart. Isnt it amazing that a small kind act of a four-year-old girl could change so many things for the better? My guardian angel says that good things come from small acts.58. Why did the writer hurry as much as he could in the third paragraph?A. Because he didnt want the little girl to wait too long.B. Because he thought of something very important.C. Because he had a very important appointment.D. Because he was afraid the little girls parents would yell at him.59. Which of the following is CORRECT according to the passage?A. The children were very naughty and often made their parents angry.B. Life must be very hard for the parents next door as they had a large family to support.C. The writer put off the appointment with his doctor because of the heavy snow.D. The little girls kind act changed the relationship between the writer and her family.60. The right time order of these events in the passage may be _. I bought a white Teddy bear for the four-year-old little girl. A new family moved into the building next to my door. The four-year-old little girl held the door open for me. The father came with the little girl and thanked me. We speak to each other now in a friendly manner.A. -B. - C. -D. -第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从下框的AF选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余项。ASee how well our new schedule worksBPlan by the weekCCut out wasted timeDDivide big tasks into small ones EPlan by the semesterFPlan each dayHow to manage your timeIt is very important to manage your time wisely.
