As the longer life and rapid decrease in the labor?age population are expected, extending the retirement age(推迟退休年龄) is a wise choice for the government. This is why at the Third Plenum (全会) of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (中国共产党十八届三中全会)it was agreed that there should be a study on the subject.

It is undoubtedly necessary for the government to adjust its policies to meet the challenge of an increasingly aging society. According to the government, China’s senior citizens above the age of 60 will reach 200 million, about 14.8 percent of the population, by the end of this year, and the figure is expected to grow to 248 million by the year of 2020 and more than 400 million by 2050, when they will account for 30 percent of the population. Meanwhile, extending the retirement age will result in several benefits — slowing the rapid increase of the retired, reducing the rapid decline in experienced workers and keeping the labor?age population at a considerable size for stable economic development.

However, before the policy is drawn up there will need to be thorough research, so there can be careful consideration of the interests of all parties to make sure that the new policy does not harm the interests of workers in different jobs.

There are 112 million workers who do heavy physical labor and may not be willing to put off their retirement to a later age. And the opinions of government employees and other white?collar workers will also need to be listened to before a policy is introduced to extend their retirement to a later age.

No doubt it will be impossible to please all, but it should be possible to make the policy acceptable to the most. Anyway, any extensions that will hopefully help reduce the negative influences of our increasingly aging society also need to be fair.

1.The text mainly tells us________.

A. China is going to enter an aging society

B. All people agree to accept the policy

C. Extending the retirement age will bring about multiple benefits

D. China has planned to extend the retirement age

2.Which of the following is TRUE?

A. China’s old people above the age of 50 will be about 14.8 percent of the population.

B. Extending the retirement age may contribute to the economic development of China.

C. Extending the retirement age may reduce the experienced workers.

D. There will be about 248 million elders by 2050.

3.What can be inferred from the text?

A. All the workers will be pleased with the policy.

B. The white?collar workers go against the policy.

C. There can be many difficulties in extending the retirement age.

D. The government should please all so as to give up the policy.

Everybody in this world is different from one another.But do you know that understanding differences can help you better manage your money?

If there is a building which symbolizes a country—such as the Eiffel Tower for France and Sydney Opera House for Australia—then it has to be the Taj Mahal for India.

It was set up by Emperor Shah Jahan in 1653 in memory of his wife, Mumtaz Mahal. From the time they got married, they wouldn't be separated. She followed him to wars, advised him on affairs of state, and was loved by his people for her good work. But she died in 1631 during childbirth. The emperor was heart-broken and had the Taj Mahal built as a sign of his love.

It took more than 20 years for the Taj Mahal to be built. Workers were brought in, not only from all over India, but from Central Asia too. A total of 20,000 people worked on the building.

In 1657, Shah Jahan fell ill, and in 1658 his son Aurangzeb, imprisoned (囚禁) his father and seized power. Shah Jahan stayed in prison until his death in 1666. He was finally buried there with his wife he could never forget.

The Taj Mahal is definitely worth more than a single visit. As it is built with white marble stones, its character changes in different lights. It looks more beautiful at sunrise and sunset. At sunset, for example, the colour of the Taj changes from white to yellow, then to pink. As the moon rises, it turns a silvery white.

To show respect to the Taj, tourists are asked to take off their shoes during their visit.

1.Emperor Shah Jahan built the Taj Mahal to ________.

A.make it symbolize India B.memorise his wife

C.show his great power D.give his wife a present

2.Which of the following about the Taj Mahal is NOT true?

A.It is a symbol of India.

B.It took over 20 years to build the Taj Mahal.

3.According to the passage, we know that Shah Jahan ______.

A.lived a hard life in his last few years

B.lost his life just because of his old age

C.was not popular with his people at that time

D.treated his son badly when he was young

4.The word “seize” in the fourth paragraph may most probably mean ________.

A.throw B.memorise C.give D.capture
