He shook his head, explaining that he had already read it several times and almost knew it by heart. Curious, I asked whether it was from a child or maybe a gr
33、andchild. This isnt family, he replied, though he might just as well have been a regular member of the family. Old Ed and I grew up together. They were always friends. But since he moved away from the neighborhood 30 years ago, itd generally just been postcards at Christmas time between them. A coup
34、le of weeks ago, Ed died. I should have kept in touch. He repeated this, more to himself than to me. To comfort him, I said sometimes we just didnt seem to find the time. But we used to find the time, he said. Take a look. He handed the letter over to me. The first sentence Ive been meaning to write
35、 for some time, but Ive always delayed it. reminded me of myself. It went on to say that he often thought about the good times they had had together.

41、 are not girls in their teens or twenties but women in their sixties and seventies. A generation which would once only wear old-fashioned clothes is now favoring the same high street looks worn by those half their age. Professor Julia Twigg, a social policy expert, said, Women over 75 are now shoppi
42、ng for clothes more frequently than they did when they were young in the 1960s. In the 1960s, buying a coat for a woman was a serious matter. It was an expensive item that they would purchase only every three or four yearsnow you can pick one up at the supermarket whenever you wish to. Fashion is a
43、lot cheaper and people get tired of things more quickly. Professor Twigg analyzed family expending data and found that while the percentage of spending on clothes and shoes by women had stayed around the sameand 5 or 6 per cent of spendingthe amount of clothes bought had risen sharply. The professor
44、 said, Clothes are now 70 per cent cheaper than they were in the 1960s because of the huge expansion of production in the Far East. In the 1960s Leeds was the heart of the British fashion industry and that was where most of the clothes came from, but now almost all of our clothes are sourced elsewhe
45、re. Everyone is buying more clothes but in general we are not spending more money on them. Fashion designer Angela Barnard, who runs her own fashion business in London, said older women were much more affected by celebrity style than in previous years. She said, When people see stars such as Judi De
46、nch and Helen Mirren looking attractive and fashionable in their sixties, they want to follow them. Older women are much more aware of celebrities. Theres also the boom in TV programmes showing people how they can change their look, and many of my older customers do yoga to stay in shape well in the
47、ir fifties. When I started my business a few years ago, my older customers tended to be very rich, but now they are what I would call ordinary women. My own mother is 61 and she wears the latest fashions in a way she would never have done ten years ago. 64. Professor Twigg found that, compared with
48、the 1960s, _. A. the price of clothes has generally fallen by 70%B. the spending on clothes has increased by 5% or 6%C. people spend 30% less than they did on clothesD. the amount of clothes bought has risen by 5% or 6%65. What can we learn about old women in terms of fashion?A. They are often ignor
49、ed by fashion designers. B. They are now more easily influenced by stars. C. They are regarded as pioneers in the latest fashion. D. They are more interested in clothes because of their old age. 66. It can be concluded that old women tend to wear the latest fashions today mainly because _. A. they g
50、et tired of things more quicklyB. TV shows teach them how to change their looksC. they are in much better shape nowD. clothes are much cheaper than before67. Which is the best possible title of the passage?A. Age Is No Barrier for Fashion FansB. The More Fashionable, the Less ExpensiveC. Unexpected
51、Changes in FashionD. Boom of the British Fashion IndustryDPeople diet to look more attractive. Fish diet to avoid being beaten up, thrown out of their social group, and getting eaten as a result. That is the fascinating conclusion of the latest research into fish behavior by a team of Australian sci
52、entists. The research team have discovered that subordinate (下级的) fish voluntarily diet to avoid challenging their larger competitors. In studying gobies（鰕虎鱼） we noticed that only the largest two individuals, a male and female, had breeding (繁殖) rights within the group, explains Marian Wong. All oth
53、er group members are nonbreeding females, each being 5-10% smaller than its next largest competitor. We wanted to find out how they maintain this precise size separation. The reason for the size difference was easy to see. Once a subordinate fish grows to within 5-10% of the size of its larger compe
54、titor, it causes a fight which usually ends in the smaller goby being driven away from the group. More often than not, the evicted fish is then eaten up. It appeared that the smaller fish were keeping themselves small in order to avoid challenging the boss fish. Whether they did so voluntarily, by r
55、estraining how much they ate, was not clear. The research team decided to do an experiment. They tried to fatten up some of the subordinate gobies to see what happened. To their surprise, the gobies simply refused the extra food they were offered, clearly preferring to remain small and avoid fights,
56、 over having a feast. The discovery challenges the traditional scientific view of how boss individuals keep their position in a group. Previously it was thought that large individuals simply used their weight and size to threaten their subordinates and take more of the food for themselves, so keepin
57、g their competitors small. While the habits of gobies may seem a little mysterious, Dr. Wong explains that understanding the relationships between boss and subordinate animals is important to understanding how hierarchical（等级的） societies remain stable. The research has proved the fact that voluntary
58、 dieting is a habit far from exclusive(专有的) to humans. As yet, we lack a complete understanding of how widespread the voluntary reduction of food intake is in nature, the researchers comment. Data on human dieting suggests that, while humans generally diet to improve health or increase attractivenes
59、s, rarely does it improve long-term health and males regularly prefer females that are fatter, than the females own ideal.68. When a goby grows to within 5-10% of the size of its larger competitor, it _. A. faces danger B. has breeding rightsC. eats its competitor D. leaves the group itself69. The u
60、nderlined words the evicted fish in Paragraph 3 refer to _. A. the fish beaten up B. the fish found outC. the fish fattened up D. the fish driven away70. The experiment showed that the smaller fish _. A. fought over a feast B. went on diet willinglyC. preferred some extra food D. challenged the boss
61、 fishERetirement AgeRetirement is the point where a person stops employment completely. The standard retirement age varies from country to country, but it is generally between 50 and 70, according to the latest statistics, 2011. However, for a long time, people have got into an argument about whethe
62、r the age of retirement should be increased or reduced in their own countries. There are several arguments for allowing older people to continue working as long as they are able. Many people think that older employees have a large amount of knowledge and experience which can be lost to a business or
63、 organization if they are made to retire. Besides, older employees are often extremely faithful employees and are more willing to implement company policies than the young. A more important point is regarding the attitudes in society to old people. To force someone to resign or retire at 60 or 65 in
64、dicates that the society does not value the input of these people and that effectively their useful life is over. Allowing old people to work indefinitely(无限期地), however, is not always a good policy. Some people took the strong view that age alone is no guarantee of ability. Many young employees hav
65、e more experience or skills than older staff, who may have been stuck in one area for most of their working lives. Having compulsory retirement allows new ideas in an organization. On the other hand, older people should be rewarded by society for their lifes labor by being given generous pensions an
66、d the freedom to enjoy leisure. They can have time to do whatever they like, that is, they can have their own plans or roles and achieve their retirement goals. With many young people unemployed or frustrated in low-level positions, there are often calls to compulsorily retire older workers. However
67、, this can affect the older individuals freedomand rightto work. In my opinion, giving workers more choices over their retirement age will benefit society and the individual. 71. According to the passage, old people should go on with work because _. A. they will help the business not to fail quickly
68、B. they have grasped much practical experienceC. they need to have a sense of achievementD. they want to learn more knowledge72. The underlined word implement in Paragraph 2 probably means _. A. take over B. work on C. get rid of D. carry out73. The third paragraph is mainly to tell us that _. A. ol
69、der people cant do their work wellB. young people usually have new ideasC. it is better for older people to retire on timeD. older people would like to do, something else74. What is the authors attitude towards compulsory retirement?A. positive B. neutral C. negative D. uncertain75. Which of the fol
