38、 central bank have a role to play in supporting working-class families until the economy has recovered more fully.

They are growing larger, both in the sense that they occupy more and that the trees in them and bigger. What is going on?Forests are spreading in almost all
52、 Western countries, with fastest growth in places that historically had rather few trees. In 1990 28% of Spain was forests; now the proportion is 37%. In both Greece and Italy, the growth was from 26% to 32% over the same period. Forests are gradually taking more and in America and Australia. Perhap
53、s most astonishing is the trend in Ireland. Roughly 1% of that country was forested when it became independent in 1922. Forests cover 11% of the land, and the government wants to push the proportion to 18% by the 2040s.Two things are fertilizing this growth. The first is the abandonment of farmland,
54、especially in high, dry places where nothing grows terribly well. When farmers give up trying to earn a living from farming or herding trees simply move in. The second is government policy and subsidy（补贴）. Throughout history,governments have protected and promoted forests for diverse reasons, rangin

62、are lost.”（像巴西和刚果这样的国家的森林受到了环保主义者的广泛关注，同时很容易理解为什么南美洲和撒哈拉以南的非洲正在经历大规模的森林消失：每年几乎有500万公顷的森林消失。）可知，在许多发展中国家，森林正在迅速萎缩，这件事引发了环境保护者的关注。故选B项。【13题详解】细节理解题。由文章第二段“Forests are spreading in almost all Western countries, with fastest growth in places that historically had rather few trees. ”（森林在几乎所有的西方国家都在蔓延，在历史
63、上树木较少的地方增长最快。）可知，森林在历史上树木罕见的地方增长最快。故选C项。【14题详解】推理判断题。由文章第三段“Nowadays forests are increasingly welcome because they suck in carbon pollution from the air.”（现在森林越来越受欢迎，因为它们吸收空气中的碳污染。）可知，森林能够吸收碳污染，从而改善空气质量，因此，我们对于森林的渴望与日俱增。故选C项。【15题详解】推理推断题。由文章第一段“Forests in countries like Brazil and the Congo get a lo

66、”， as the Japanese call people aged between 65 and 75, who continue to work and stay socially engaged. _16_. The yold are more numerous, healthier and wealthier than previous generations of seniors._17_ Of the 3.7 years of increased life expectancy(预期寿命)in rich countries between 2000 and 2015, says
67、the WHO, 3.2 years were enjoyed in good health. Working is one of the factors that are helping people stay healthy longer. A German study found that people who remain at work after the normal retirement age manage to slow the cognitive (认知的)decline. The yold are also better off, while the wealth of
68、all other age groups declined. The yold are not just any group of old people They are challenging the traditional expectations of the retired as who are wearing indoor shoes and look after the grandchildren. _18_They become one of the fastest growing group for airline business. They spend much more,
69、 when taking a foreign holiday, than young adults. So they are vital to the Tourism industry. They are also changing education and finance Because of the importance of pensions,the yold are transforming insurance companies from passive distributors of fired an nuities (年金)to financial service provid

71、alth and pensions should be lower than expected, as people work longer and need less medical care.Today,some big things will have to change, under pressure from the yold themselves. The most important is public attitudes towards older people and in particular the expectation that 60-somethings ought
72、 to quietly retire into the background. _20_ The yold will demand that companies become more age-friendly and,in the process,help change attitudes towards aging itself.A.

B【解析】【分析】这是一篇议论文。本文从日本老龄化社会出发，论述了悠得人群体日渐成为社会生产力和消费力的现象。【16题详解】下一句“The yold are more numerous, healthier and wealthier than previous
75、generations of seniors.(与上一代老年人相比，悠得人的数量更多，更健康，也更富有)”说明悠得人比上一代老年人的数量更多，更健康，也更富有，因此，G项“The yold, in their new appearance as the young old, are expected to change the world(悠得人，以他们年轻老人的新面貌，有望改变这个世界)”符合语境，选项中的“new appearance”是关键词，与下文构成顺承关系，故选G项。【17题详解】下一句“Of the 3.7 years of increased life expectancy(预
76、期寿命)in rich countries between 2000 and 2015, says the WHO, 3.2 years were enjoyed in good health.(世卫组织称，2000至2015年间，富裕国家的预期寿命延长了3.7年，其中有3.2年是在良好的健康状态下度过的)”提到世界卫生组织的调查结论，随着人们预期寿命的增长，健康的年限也在增长，且下文的“Working is one of the factors that are helping people stay healthy longer. ”说明工作有益健康，可推知，首句必然和健康有关，因此，D项
77、“Health worsens with age, but the yold are resisting the decline better than most.(健康状况随着年龄的增长而恶化，但悠得人比大多数人更能抵抗这种衰退)”符合语境，与最后一句“The yold are also better off, while the wealth of all other age groups declined.(悠得人群的境况也更富有，而其他所有年龄组的财富都在下降。)”呼应，介绍悠得人群的优点。故选D项。【18题详解】上文“The yold are not just any group o
78、f old people They are challenging the traditional expectations of the retired as who are wearing indoor shoes and look after the grandchildren. (悠得人并非仅是一波寻常的老人。他们正在挑战人们对退了休的人穿着拖鞋、照看孙儿这种惯有的预期)”以及下文“So they are vital to the Tourism industry. They are also changing education and finance (因此，它们对旅游业至关重要。
79、他们也在改变教育和金融)”谈到，这批人将改变对老人的传统印象，认为老人是待在家里的照顾孙子孙女的，下文谈到是老人开始成为航空业、旅游业的常客，甚至超过了年轻人，可推知，该题干要体现出与常识不同的差异性，因此，F项“That will disturb consumers, service and financial markets(这将扰乱消费者、服务业和金融市场)”符合语境，该选项中“disturb”是关键词，与上下文呼应。故选F项。【19题详解】下文“They find that older workers have, if anything, slightly above-average
80、productivity and that teams of workers from multiple generations are the most productive of all(他们发现，若要说有什么区别的话，老年员工的生产率略高于平均水平；而由来自不同代际的员工组成的团队生产率最高)”谈到，年长的工人的效率会更高，因此，E项“Many bosses think productivity falls with age, but studies in Germany suggest otherwise.(许多老板和人力资源部门认为生产率会随年龄增长而下降，但是德国的研究表明并非如此
81、)”符合语境，反驳一些人所认为的工作效率随年龄增长而倒退的观点。故选E项。【20题详解】上文“The most important is public attitudes towards older people and in particular the expectation that 60-somethings ought to quietly retire into the background(最重要的是公众对老年人的态度，尤其是对60多岁的人应该悄悄退居幕后的期望)”以及下文“The yold will demand that companies become more age-f
82、riendly and, in the process, help change attitudes towards aging itself.( 悠得人将要求公司变得更“高龄友善”，并在这一过程中帮助改变人们对于“变老”这件事本身的态度)”提到，一些人认为60岁以上的员工应该迎接退休，下文又谈到了悠得人的诉求，希望公司变得更“高龄友善”，可推知，B项“Many companies discriminate against older workers by offering training only to younger ones(许多公司歧视年长的工人，只给年轻人提供培训)”符合题意，符合
