Just give them a telephone call and ask for, say, a daughter, son-in-law and grandchild. They will show up at your door, and greet you emotionally as if they hadnt seen you for years.Some 15 couples have so far hired “families”. “We have nearly 80 people on the waiting list.” Said the president of the company that offers such services, “What is common about these senior citizens is that they are thirsty for human love. We are helping them make their dreams come true.”Where once big families with three or more generations living together were common, now numbers are reducing fast. In cities there are very few indeed. Many old people see their families only rarely, if at all. This may be because the childrens bosses have sent them to a distant city, even abroad, or just because busy family members cannot find time to visit their parents.“Weve seen many cases in which parent-children relations are not in a happy state,” company president continues. “When a son finally visits his parents after a long while, it is often just to ask for money or for them to let him have their property （财产）early.”Loneliness is not a one-way street. “One young mother came to us to ask about grandparents,” he added.The company is now developing into other fields. Their services include providing “employees” for businessmen to scold and “lovers” for young people unlucky in love. Companys “lovers” for hire is not a service to be misunderstood, company president makes clear.“You shouldnt think about our lover too romantically,” he said, “Shes there to act as an adviser on how to find a girlfriend.”11. Old couples in Japan hire family members _.A. to ask for help when they are illB. to realize their big-family dreamsC. to seek love and comfortD. to strengthen parent-children relations12.

Which of the following is not the reason that Japanese grown-ups seldom visit their parents?A. They are too busy.B. They work in distant cities.C. They cant afford expensive visits to their parents.D. Their relations are not very tight.14. “Loneliness is not a one-way street” means that _.A. both the old and the young will feel lonelyB. living alone is not a one-way streetC. young mother with a little child will feel lonelyD. one young mother will hire “grandparents” for their child15. When a Japanese young man hires a “lover”, _.A. she will be his loverB. she will offer him valuable advice on love affairsC. she will bring him a girlfriendD. she will tell him her own love story Passage Two In Amsterdam, the capital of Holland, there is an unusual Children Restaurant, it is run by children. From the manager to the cooks, waiters and other members are all children from 6 to 12 years old. They themselves do all the necessary work such as cooking and cleaning. These children are selected in Amsterdam. After training they may serve in the restaurant for four weeks. This restaurant was founded in 1983 by a woman cook who wanted to give chuildren chances to learn to be useful to the public. And now she is the only adult there, but her job is just to take care of the children. The restaurant is welcomed almost by everyone. Since there are only 20 seats in it, it is always full of people.

Passage Three Newspapers in Great Britain vary greatly in their ways of carrying the news. There are serious papers for those who want to know about important happenings everywhere, both at home and abroad, and foreign news. Thee are popular newspapers for those who prefer entertainment to information. The London newspaper that is best known outside Great Britain is probably The Times. It began in 1785, and has a high reputation (名声) for reliable news and serious opinions on the news. It calls itself an independent paper, which means that it does not give its support to a particular political party. Its leading articles give the opinions of the editors, not those of the owners of the paper.Letters to the editor are printed in parts of the newspaper. These parts of The Times are always interesting. Most of the letters are on serious subjects. but from time to time there will belong letters on the subject which is not at all serious, perhaps on a new fashion of dress, or the bad manners of the young people compared with the manners of thirty years ago.In addition to the London daily newspapers, there are other papers. The two London evening papers, the Evening News and the Evening Standard, are sold not only at the ordinary news-agents shops. but always stay by their piles of papers, however. The newspaper sellers sometimes go away and leave their papers. Passers-by help themselves to the paper they want, and leave the price of the paper in a box. There are dishonest people in London, but no one thinks it is worth robbing a newspaper-seller of a few coins.21.
