Chinese people are now living happier and longer than before. According to the latest study, the number of people over 60 years old is 130 million, making up 10 percent of the whole population, and increases at a rate of 3 percent per year. This marks that China has stepped into the aged society. It is the Chinese tradition to respect, love, support, and help old people, and the aging problem has received more and more attention from the society.

   China has built the system to protect and serve old people’s legal (法律的) rights and interests, gradually developed social insurance, public health services and social welfare (福利) projects for old people, and also applied the minimum living standard protection (最低生活保障) system for the aged who are unable to work and receive no supports. Now, China is bringing the aging problem into the work of sustainable (持續(xù)的) development according to China’s conditions, to build and develop a social security system for old people, set up a system combined with the state, collectives (集體) and families to solve the problem of “the elderly should be provided for”. The life of China’s old people is more colorful along with the fast and sound economic development of the country.

   Old people in today’s China who don’t have to consider their food and clothing hope to live more colorfully. The happy psychology (心態(tài)) of the aged makes them thirsty for knowledge. Strong and healthy old people can be seen everywhere of the country. They learn new knowledge, surf the Internet, practice handwriting and drawing, and take part in fashion shows, exercises and entertainments. Their active and sound living attitude encourages the youth around and they are in fact an important role in ensuring a stable and peaceful society.

61. The underlined part “thirsty for” (in the last paragraph) means “________”.

A. want to drink water       B. feel hungry    C. want to learn   D. want to teach

62. Which of the following is NOT the author’s idea?

A. China has entered an aged society.     B. All people in the society should care for the old.

C. Old people’s active living ways have a good effect on the young.

D. The society hasn’t done enough for old people.

63. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. How to respect old people               B. Old people’s life in China

C. Old people’s problem                            D. Old people’s wishes

64. From the passage we can know that the author is ________ about the aging problem in China.

A. disappointed         B. hopeful                C. worried           D. doubtful

　　“Mary and Regina, you may go．” When we heard Mrs．Toalson, we went into the bathroom．The bathroom was clean, and it smelled like perfume．I asked Regina what if someone wanted to go to the bathroom during class time．She told me that there was a special pass called a “bathroom pass．” All you had to do was raise your hand with the pass to let Mrs．Toalson know you need to go to the bathroom．Then you would be permitted to go．

　　At 3：30pm, school ended for the day．Students put their textbooks in their cabinets and lined up in front of the change room, where they collected their backpacks and coats．As they walked out of the door, each student said “Good bye” and gave Mrs．Toalson a high five．

Gu Changwei was the first Chinese cinematographer to be nominated (提名) for an Oscar, and he is regarded by Zhang Yimou as the best cinematographer in China. Gu was behind the camera for many of Zhang Yimou’s famous films including the one that rocketed Zhang to fame: "Red Sorghum (高粱)". And now this master of the visual has taken on his first directing role with the film "Peacock". So Gu Changwei has come out from behind the camera into the spotlight (聚光燈).

Gu Changwei is very serious about his directing "Peacock". To get the authentic atmosphere, Gu took his film crew to the city of Anyang in central China’s Henan province where the story took place, to shoot the film.

For this film Gu has been able to get out from behind the camera to manage every aspect of the film, and to realize his own ideals in movie-making.

"Peacock" is about the life of an average family in a small town in Henan province in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Gu chose this story for his first movie because he grew up during this same pe??riod and it struck a chord with him.

“Peacock” wrapped up production in June, 2004. It’s aimed at the foreign film market and will be entered in February’s Berlin Film Festival, and released in China at the same time.
