1980 the number of jobs that need science and engineering S E knowledge has increased 增加 And each year in the US the number of jobs that need S E skills increases by 5 In the next 20 years many talented people with S E knowledge will retire 退休 because more than half of them now are in their 40s or older and 30 of them are 55 or older Therefore to have enough talented people universities need to train students in S E Yet fewer and fewer students are choosing jobs in S E In other words there are not enough new talented people to take the place of the retiring ones so there will be a gap 缺口 in the future In the past the US filled this gap with foreign talented people These people came to the US to study and got their doctorates 博士学位 from American universities Many of them lived in the US to use their science skills In 2001 foreign talented people not more than half of the doctorates in S E in this country But the US can t only depend on foreign talented people In order to have more Americans with doctorates that work in jobs in S E more students need to go to university However even though the US is starting to support science and middle school students are deciding to become scientists these students will not finish their studies until 2018 or 2020 1 The number of jobs that need S E skills increases by each year in the US A 30 B 5 第 5 页 共 15 页 C 40 D 20 2 According to the

are too many people in America that need jobs 4 4 分 阅读理解 Old age may not sound exciting But recent findings offer good news for older people and for people who worried about getting older Researchers found that people become happier and experience less worry after they reach the age of 50 In fact they said by the age of 85 people are happier with their life than they were when they were 18 years old The findings came from a survey of more than 340 000 adults in the US The Gallup Organization questioned them by telephone in 2008 At that time the people were between the ages of 18 and 85 The researchers asked questions about emotions 情绪 like happiness sadness and worry They also asked about mental 精神 or emotional stress Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science

as they grow older However women at all ages reported more sadness stress and worry than men The findings appeared in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences Researchers said they didn t
