2．Everyone seems to be living for someone else．
I had once helped a friend run a watermelon stall．I noticed something interesting：almost every buyer would lift the melon up to their ear，and tap it，apparently trying to listen to something．I wondered what they expected to hear．Finally I could no longer hold back my curiosity and asked a customer-an elderly gentleman-about this．Hearing my question，he roared with laughter．Then he replied in a self-mocking （自嘲） tone，"Young lady，I have been doing this for more than fifty years．But all I know is that everybody would stare at you as if you were a fool if you just pick up a melon and leave!"
Not long after that，my watermelon stall friend sent me an invitation to her wedding，which really surprised me．I asked her，"Why are you seized by a sudden desire to get married？I don't remember ever hearing you mention that you've got a boyfriend．"She answered while counting money，"Everyone has to get married anyway，so it is better to get married sooner than later．"
I could think of no word to refute （反駁） her．It seems that everybody is living for everybody else and has forgotten the need of their own heart．It may be safe and save a lot of worries by following others'suit in doing things．The use of WE or US will give one a steady and sure sense of pride．But why do people usually feel uneasy when using"I"？．
I find all these things somewhat funny．We have got used to following others'example．We feel at ease and justified simply because this is a way of US，a way which has been practiced by so many people．But is this massive practice really right？

25．Why did the elderly gentleman tap the watermelon before buying it？C
A．Because he expected to hear something．
B．Because he was a fool．
C．Because he just wanted to follow the crowd．
D．Because it was his habit and it was hard for him to give it up．
26．Which word can replace the underlined word"justified"in the last paragraph？A
A．reasonable B．embarrassed C．excited D．disappointed
27．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage？B
A．It may be safe to do what most people do．
B．People should live for others and forget their own heart．
C．The writer felt unexpected when her friend wanted to get married．
D．The use of We or I will give speakers themselves quite different senses．
28．In which section of a magazine can you read the passage？D
A．Nature and Art
B．Sport and Health
C．Science and Technology
D．Culture and Society．

16．There are many older people in the world and there will be many more．A little-known fact is that over 60 percent of the older people live in developing countries．Accor ding to the World Health Organization，by 2020 there will be 1 billion，with over 700 million living in developing countries．
　It is a surprising fact that th e population aging is particularly rapid in developing countries．For example，it took France 115 years for the rate of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percent．It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase．
　What are the implications of these increased numbers of older folk？One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live，the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disability．Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible，including during old age，to lessen the financial burden on the state．
　Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society．In some African countries，certainly in Asia，older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge．Yet traditions are fading away daily，which does not make sure the continued high regard of older people．As society changes，attitudes will change．
　Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination in employment．Life-long learning programs need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country's development．
　Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people．Both public and private schemes are vital in order to build a suitable safety net．
5．The rate of older peopleC．
A．is bigger in developed countries than in developing countries
B．is one-seventh of the population in developing countries
C．will increase much faster in China than in France
D．will be sixty percent in developing countries by 2020
6．According to passage，which of the following are governments most worried about？
A
A．The diseases and disability of older people．B．The longer life and good health of people．
C．The loss of taxes on older people．D．The increasing  respect for older people．
7．Which of the following measure is NOT mentioned to solve the population ageing problem？D
A．Getting rid of age discrimination in employment．
B．Supplying life-long learning programs to older people．
C．Making sure adequate income protection for older people．
D．Providing free health care for sick older people．
8．The author concludes in the last paragraph thatB．
A．governments have spent lots of time in solving the aging problem
B．population aging is a hard problem，but it needs to be solved urgently
C．people are too busy to solve the population aging problem
D．much time and effort will be lost in solving the aging problem．
