26、ood news that so many more people are living longer, he said, but there is a big but1. We will be older, but in worse health, and at high risk of living alone. The other problem is that we are very poor at forward planning. We deal with the problems that are under our noses, but even problems two or
27、 three years away seem quite distant enough to put off. When youre talking about forecasts for a time half a century away and more, I see no evidence that we are putting in place the measures to deal with it.This year there will be 14,500 centenarians in the UK, a number which is expected to increas

33、perts met in Ethiopia last week to discuss ways to help sub-Saharan Africa become a major producer of wheat. The area traditionally produced little wheat, while North Africa was the grain basket.Wheat production fell sharply in sub-Saharan countries during the 1980s. In the 1960s, attempts were made
34、 to grow wheat in sub-Saharan Africa, including South Africa and Zimbabwe. But those countries found it was less costly to import wheat from Europe and the United States. Another problem is that Africas wheat farms were often far from population centers. There also were transportation issues. And so
35、me lowlands were not a good place to grow wheat.Hans Joachim Braun ,one of the experts, says now is a good time to increase wheat production. In the last four years we have seen three major price hikes, where the wheat price and other staple process (主食加工)exploded. And that puts a big, big bill on c
36、ountries which are depending on wheat imports, and Africa is the biggest wheat importer.He also says demand for wheat in sub-Saharan Africa is growing faster than for any other crop. With higher income people would like to have more diversified(多样化)food. But that is possible not the most important o
37、ne. The most important one is that there is a tremendous migration(移民)of in particular male labor to the cities. And wheat products are convenient food because you can easily buy it. Its easy to process and you also can store it for a few days, which is different from some of the maize and rice prod
38、ucts.There are three possible challenges for growing more wheat in Africa: climate change, disease and pests, like insects. Mr. Braun says rising temperatures should not have a major effect on wheat. In fact, he says, it could help wheat grow in areas with high rainfall totals. As for fighting disea
39、se and pests, experts suggest growing more resistant crops. In addition, railroads and roads would have to be improved so large amounts of wheat could be moved to large markets.39.What does the word hikes in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?A. big changes B. large increases C. long trips D. big bills40
40、.Wheat price exploding indicates_.A.sub-Saharan countries need to increase wheat production badlyB.sub-Saharan countries have to issue more moneyC.sub-Saharan countries should grow more CornD.importing much wheat is urgent41.Why is there a higher demand for wheat in sub-Saharan Africa ?A.Because the
41、 number of hungry people there is increasing.B.Because higher income people have the diversified need of food.C.Because male labor are crowding into the cities.D.Because the wheat price is lower.42.According to Mr. Braun the main challenges for growing more wheat in Africa are_.A.climate change and

F
43、acebook then attempts to make money by selling their data to advertisers that want to send targeted messages.Most Facebook users dont realize this is happening. Even if they know what the company is up to, they still have no idea what theyre paying for Face book because people dont reallyknow what t
44、heir personal data is worth.The biggest problem, however, is that the company keeps changing the rules. Early on, you keep everything private. That was the great thing about facebook-you could create your own little private network. Last year, the company changed its privacy rules so that many thing
45、s your city, your photo, your friends nameswere set, by default (默认)to be shared with every one on the Internet.According to Facebooks vice-president Elliot Schrage, the company is simply making changes to improve its service, and if people dont share information, they have a less satisfying experie
46、nce.Some critics think this is more about Facebook looking to make more money. In original business model, which involved selling ads and putting them at the side of the pages totally. Who wants to look at ads when theyre online connecting with their friends?The privacy issue has already landed Face
47、book in hot water in Washington. In April. Senator Charles Schumer called on Facebook to change its privacy policy. He also urged the Federal Trade Commission to set guidelines for social-networking sites. I think the senator rightly communicated that we had not been clear about what the new product
48、s were and how people could choose to use them or not to use them, Schrage admits.I think that whatever Facebook has done so far to invade our privacy, its only the beginning.
