24、NSWER SHEET 1.45 In 1997, 25 Japanese citizens, all older than 60, launched Jeeba(the name means “old man and old woman“)to make senior-friendly products. They knew they were making history when they coined their company motto: “ Of the elderly, by the elderly and for the elderly. “ They do not hire

25、 young people, and the oldest of their workers is 75.Firms run by senior citizens are still a rarity, in Japan and worldwide. But the elderly have numbers on their side. Healthier and longer-living seniors, born immediately after World War II, are reaching retirement age in huge numbers all over the

26、 developed world. Extremely low birthrates in those same countries mean there are far fewer young workers to take their place. One likely consequence is now clear: shrinking work forces.While the streamlining effects of international competition are focusing attention on the need to create and keep

27、good jobs, those fears will eventually give way to worries about the growing shortage of young workers. One unavoidable solution: putting older people back to work, whether they like it or not. Indeed, advanced economies like those of Finland and Denmark have already raised their retirement ages. Ot

28、hers are under severe pressure to follow suit, as both the European Commission and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development have recently warned their members that their future prosperity depends on a growing contribution from the elderly.Whether these changes are good or bad news t

29、o workers depends on whether they anticipate retirement with eagerness or dread. In the United States, half of working-age Americans now expect to work into their 70s, whether by financial necessity or by lifestyle choice, according to a new study by Putnam Investments.Contrary to still widespread a

30、ssumptions, there is very little hard evidence to suggest that companies cannot stay competitive with a rising share of older workers. At British hardware chain B&Q, its “elder worker“ stores in Manchester and Exmouth were 18 percent more profitable than its regular outletsdue in part, the company s

31、ays, to six times less employee turnover and 60 percent less shoplifting and breakage.46 Jeeba s difference from a conventional company mainly lies in_.(A)the age of its employees(B) the number of its owners(C) the quality of its products(D)the scope of its operations47 In the developed world, compa

32、red with young people, the elderly_.(A)are better at business(B) are greater in number(C) have healthier lifestyles(D)have more job opportunities48 According to the writer, in the current situation companies are faced with the tough task of_.(A)creating good positions(B) employing retired workers(C)

33、 filling vacant positions(D)replacing unskilled workers49 For future prosperity, many European countries will have to_.(A)increase the number of young workers(B) offer many senior-friendly jobs(C) improve services for seniors(D)raise their retirement ages50 B&Q s “elder worker“ stores are mentioned

34、to show that the employment of older workers _.(A)does not reduce a company s competitiveness(B) does not affect older workers lifestyle choices(C) is not a usual practice among competitive firms(D)is not good news to those who are eager to retire50 Here s how I want to watch the 2014 Winter Olympic

35、s. I want to go to a Web site to see any event I want, whenever I want to watch it, on whatever screen I choose. Ill gladly pay.The technology exists to make this happen today. Yet nearly two decades after the introduction of the World Wide Web, this remains a fantasy. NBC, which broadcasted the Van

36、couver Olympics in the United States, wouldn t put videos on its Web site until they had been shown on prime-time TV. So Americans had the weird experience of learning from a news report during the day that something fantastic had just happened, and then having to wait until that night s broadcast t

37、o see it.Bloggers complained, but NBC wouldnt give way. Its research shows that people like me, who want to watch the Olympics online, represent only 7 percent of the total audience. The other, bigger concern is: the Internet doesn t deliver any money. Advertisers remain willing to pay big money to

38、show their commercials on prime-time TV. But on the Internet? Not so much.So NBC clings to the old way of doing things. As it sees it, the prime-time show is the most important. To make matters worse, NBC was already expecting to lose $ 250 million on the 2010 Vancouver Games. Good luck persuading i

39、t to invest in a risky Web project.It s easy to blame the network executives. But the NBC guys and their like are only doing what makes sense. They re going where the money is.That needs to change. Yes, selling reporting of Olympic events over the Internet would drain away some of the prime-time aud

40、ience, but my sense is many of the online subscribers would still watch the prime-time show. And over time, the subscription dollars could become a substantial revenue stream. Instead of viewing the Internet as a threat to prime time, the TV networks should see the Web as a way to sell even more of

41、their product to a small but passionate subset of their audience.Im hoping that by 2014, that will have changed.51 According to the writer, watching the Olympics online as one likes_.(A)is technologically impossible(B) is still denied to the audience(C) has been a dream for 20 years(D)will no longer

42、 be free in 201452 We learn that what Americans saw about the Vancouver Olympics_.(A)was unavailable online(B) differed from the news(C) seemed weird to them(D)was first shown on TV53 Bloggers complained about NBC s_.(A)neglect of those in the minority(B) excessive online advertisements(C) delay in

43、providing videos online(D)limited reporting on sports news54 After the 2010 Vancouver Games, NBC is likely to_.(A)improve its prime-time show(B) continue its current practice(C) raise its price for advertising(D)try its luck in a web program55 The writer thinks the TV networks should view the Web as

44、 a potential to help them to(A)make dramatic profits(B) develop new products(C) satisfy their subscribers(D)divide prime-time revenues55 One important thing during the pre-Christmas rush at our house was the arrival of my daughters kindergarten report card. She got high praise for her reading, vocab

45、ulary and overall enthusiasm. On the other hand, we learnt that she has work to do on her numbers and facility with the computer, though the detailed handwritten report her teachers prepared is absent of any words that might be interpreted as negative in describing her efforts. A number system indic

46、ates how she s measuring up in each area without any mention of passing or failing.All of which seems to make my daughter s school neither fish nor fowl when it comes to the debate over the merits of giving formal grades to kids. At one level, the advantages and disadvantages are obvious. A grade sy

47、stem provides a straightforward standard by which to measure how your child is progressing at schooland how he or she is getting on compared to other children. But as writer Sue Ferguson notes, “Grades can deceive. “ The aim should be “to measure learning , not simply what a student can recall on a

48、test. “ The two aren t the sameand if you doubt that as an adult, ask yourself whether you could sit down without any preparation and still pass those high-school-level examinations.If you re old enough, you ve lived through this debate before. At one time, it was considered unfair to put children i

49、n direct competition with one another if it could be avoided. The intention behind that may have been good, but it ignored the fact that competition, and the will to come out on top, are essential components of the human condition.This time around, educators working with a no-grades approach are emphasizing different reasons. The thing is, that approach is much more commonplace in the a
