37、段是对older worker的定义和解释，所以题干符合文意。3.Age is the only factor that defines an older worker.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：N）解析：解析 题干中出现了 the only这一绝对性很强的词，这种表述通常过于绝对。答案依据仍然在第三段，最后一句 Age alone may not be a defining characteristic of an older worker年龄本身并不能定义老年工人的特性。所以本题表述与原文不符。4.The society has assisted older worke
38、rs to retire and use leisure time to retain and recruit them.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：N）解析：解析 第四段第一句话提到了 Retirement退休的问题。与本题有关，继续看后面 assisting older workers to retire and use leisure time与题干几乎完全相同，但要注意的是该句话前面的 the issue has changed这种观点已经改变，所以题干的说法与文中内容相反。5.With adequate training older workers may outp
39、erform young workers in reliability and consistency.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Y）解析：解析 本题的解题关键在于 training older worker。第五段第一句话说明了本段的中心 the value and importance of training older workers，可以判定答案就在本段。接下来 with training. older workersmay even surpass younger workers in reliability and consistency，意思与题干一致。6.W
40、orkplace supervisors must be under the age of 60.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：NG）解析：解析 按照顺序原则继续向下找。同样在第五段，可以找到 workplace supervisors，但这里并没有谈到对车间管理者的年龄限制，所以本题在文中没有出现。7.Older workers may account for a larger proportion of the future workforce.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：Y）解析：解析 第六段的首句 There is a trend toward pro
41、viding increasing career development opportunities for older workers可能会给老年工人提供越来越多的上作发展机会，本题十是同义转述，符合原文。8.Older workers are considered a liability by employers.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：N）解析：解析 注意本题中的线索词 liability，通过略读可在最后一段的中部找到该词，同时也就找到了答案。 Rather than being seen as a liability，rather than 表示否定，与题干所述
42、相悖。9.Longer span of work life, from the national policy perspective, eases 1.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：the social security burden）解析：解析 第四段 From a national policy perspective，increasing work life eases the social security burden给出了本题的答案，Longer span of work life 是对 increasing work life的转述，所以答案为 the soci
43、al security burden。10.Because the problem of aging still remains a myth, some workplace bosses are uncertain a bout whether hiring older workers is 1.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：a sound investment）解析：解析 在第五题中提到了 workplace supervisors也就是本句中所说的 workplace bosses，在第五段中间位置 myths about agingworkplace superviso
44、rs.a sound investment，可得到本题的答案。11.Investment in developing new skills for older workers is seen as a strategy .both for improving the quality of life for older adults and 1.（分数：7.00）填空项 1:_ （正确答案：productivity）解析：解析 还是根据顺序原则，在下文略读搜索。在最后一段中可以找到近乎一致的句子 Investment in developing new skills for older work
45、ers is seen as a strategy for improving productivity as well as the quality of life for older adults给出了本题的答案：为提高老年工人的技术而做的投资可以提高老年人的工作效率和生活质量。四、Part Listening Com(总题数：0，分数：0.00)五、Section A(总题数：0，分数：0.00)六、Questions 11 to 18 a(总题数：1，分数：56.00)A.Sue is a quiet girl now.
