Unlike Hillary Clinton, and most previous US presidents, who entered the election after years of being politicians, Trump, 70, the country’s 45th president, was a New York businessman. And he was not a presidential candidate who worked hard to keep a perfect public image(形象) of a man who was always caring, fair and intelligent. Instead, Trump has a reputation of being bad-tempered, self-important and hateful toward those who disagree with him. He also blames immigrants, both from Latin America and the Middle East, for many problems in the US. This has caused a dangerous division in the country —a country made up of many diverse races. Furthermore, he opposes globalization. But to his supporters, the fact that Trump is not a typical politician is actually one of his advantages. His habit of never hiding his opinions is also considered by many to be a sign that he is not a pretender like many politicians are. “We have seen our country take a fall in the eyes of the world. We need to go in a different direction,” Binyom in Weisswasser, 39, a man from Chicago, told the Chicago Tribune. “Trump’s not a politician. I like that he is not always politically correct and speaks his mind. It gives me the feeling that what you see is what you get. You may not like it, but you know what it is. But interestingly, many who voted for Trump actually followed the “lesser of two evils(两害相权取其轻)” principle—one that people use when faced with picking from two unpleasant options — simply because they didn't think Clinton was a better choice. “He’s the candidate I disagree less with,” Jack Stucky, 20, a student at Northwestern University, told the Chicago Tribune. “I don’t think I'd say Donald Trump is going to be the best president ever, but I did think he’d be better than Hillary Clinton.” 【1】What can we learn from the text? A.Trump is more tolerant to immigrants. B.Trump minds more about keeping his public image perfect. C.Trump is thought to be more complex and flexible in politics. D.Trump is considered more straightforward and narrow-minded. 【2】What does the last paragraph imply? A.Trump will do better than Hillary. B.Hillary is the least unpleasant candidate. C.Both Trump and Hillary are bad, but the former is better. D.Trump is going to be the worst president in the history of the USA. 【3】What’s the best title of this passage? A.Trump’s shocking win. B.Trump’s new policy to the USA. C.Different congratulations on Trump’s win. D.The advantages Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton. |

In Japan, more than 25% of the population is over 65, a figure set to rise to 40 percent by 2050. That means authorities need to think about ways to keep healthy and active for longer but also about how to cope with labor shortages. At Cross Heart, more than half of the 119 caregivers are over 60, and 15 of them are over 70. The foundation that runs this nursing home and others in Kanagaw a Prefecture has raised the official retirement age to 70 but allows employees to keep working until 80 if they want to and can. Although older workers have constraints—some can’t do the heavier tasks—they also offer advantages over younger workers who want time off for their children, said nursing home director Kaori Yokoo. “Plus, because they’re close in age, they can relate to each other more, ” she said. For the older workers, the money is a nice benefit, but the main motivation is the activity and sense of community. Hiroko Akiyama, at the University of Tokyo’s Institute of Gerontology, said a Japanese 65-year-old is in much better physical and mental shape than a 65-year-old a few decades ago. “They are full of energy, and healthy and long-liv ing,” she said. Her research has found that working helps keep seniors that way. Meanwhile, researchers are working on robots that can lift the elderly out of beds and wheelchairs. Still, Japan can’t rely only on seniors or, potentially, robots to staff its nursing homes, where the need will only grow as the population ages, analysts say. Japan has agreements with Indonesia, Vietn am and the Philipp ines under which applicants who complete job training and pass a Japanese language test can work at a Japanese nursing home. But many Japanese also express deep concern about cultural differences. 【1】From the text we can learn that in Japan ______. A.money w ill be spent increasing the skills of the workforce B.young people are willing to care for children but not seniors C.aging caregivers will increasingly become a usual trend D.high-level nursing homes are in great need 【2】What does the underlined word “constraints” in Paragraph 4 mean? A.failures. B.benefits. C.experiences. D.drawbacks. 【3】What is the main reason for the old to work for nursing homes? A.To meet their physical and mental needs. B.To earn some money for their families. C.To show love and respect for seniors. D.To reduce the young’s burden. 【4】How many aspects does the writer mention to increase the workforce? A.2. B.3. C.4. D.5. |

When the leaves begin to change their colors and the birds head south, we know the season is starting to change. On September 7 comes White Dew (白露), the 15th solar term (节气) of the year. It indicates (标志着) the beginning of the cool autumn. As the temperature falls, white dew is often seen on the grass and trees at night. For w riters and poets, autumn is a difficult season to describe. It ’s the end of the summer, and therefore a little sad. The days seem to get shorter, and when you wake in the morning, t here’s mist(薄雾) and it’s cooler. Winter is just around the corner. American writer Ernest Hemingway wrote in his book A Moveable Feast (《流动的盛宴》), “You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches (枝条) were bare (光秃秃的) against the wind and the cold, wintry light. ” But on the other hand, autumn has its good side. There are so many changes at this time of year, such as the colorful leaves and cooler nights. French w riter Albert Camus even thought autumn was a second spring, “when every leaf is a flower.” This view is also found in the most famous autumn poem in English literature, To Autumn by John Keats. In that poem, Keats says that autumn has its own songs, just like spring. Another theme of this season is wisdom (智慧). The arrival of autumn is thought to be similar to a person becoming mature (成熟的). The great Irish poet W.B. Yeats used this idea in his poem The Wild Swans at Coole (《库尔的野 天鹅》), writing about the changing seasons in Coole Park in the west of Ireland. Seeing and counting 59 swans, he remembers first making the count as a young man. Seeing the swans do the same thing for all those years, he’s reminded (提醒) that even though we get older, our hearts always stay the same age. 【1】What can be concluded about White Dew ? A.It is often ignored by w riters and poets. B.It is the time of year with the most rainfall. C.It is when the temperature begins to drop. D.It indicates the end of the autumn. 【2】A Moveable Feast was mentioned to ______. A.point out that autumn is very cold B.present the sad part of autumn C.show that winter w ill soon come D.express sadness about the end of life 【3】What does “this idea” in the last paragraph refer to? A.Autumn is an important season for man. B.We can always stay young at heart. C.Autumn is related to one’s grow ing old. D.Nature is full of lessons to be learned. 【4】What’s the article mainly about? A.The solar term White Dew. B.Why autumn is a sad season. C.Autumn weather and activities. D.Famous writers’ description of autumn. |
