书面表达

　　　 Editor’s note: China is the top country of origin for international students in the US, with more than 274,000 Chinese students reportedly accounting for 31percent of all international students at US universities. Many Chinese parents save up a lot of money for their children to pursue an overseas education. Is it worth spending big to study abroad. You are welcome to leave your comments.

　　　 Arsa (Russia): I went to study abroad when I was 17. First year was a total waste as I met plenty of Russian students in my collage and we spent most of our time shopping and hanging out at cafes. It wasn’'t until two years later that I realized that my English hadn't improved. I changed my mindset entirely and started studying hard. I ended up staying in UK for 10 years, which opened a lot of doors and introduced me to great people, so I’m all for studying abroad.

　　　 Truth (US): There is an assumption that American education is the best in the word, so Chinese parents are pushing their kids to American collages. And some are even sending their children overseas at junior or high school level. I often think this is a mistake as the education a Chinese child gets in a foreign country is very different from what they are used to and they often struggle. Some students have trouble understanding their lecturers and their assignments keep coming back with poor scores.

China's top labor official said the country is planning to push back the age at which workers can retire.

Yin Weimin, minister of human resources and social security, demonstrated that we did not put a timetable on the move when he spoke about it during a forum at the weekend.

"Delaying the retirement age is a very complicated issue and we will study it according to the situations of population and employment and consider different groups of people," Yin said.

He noted that hikes in the retirement age have been brought in by many countries and can be a good way to deal with an aging population and ensure the healthy and stable development of social security.

The life expectancy of Chinese people is now 73 years and is expected to rise to 74 during the next five years, he said.

Nearly three out of 10 Chinese people will be older than 60 by 2040, according to a United Nations forecast.

The retirement age in China currently is 60 for men and 55 for female civil servants and 50 for female workers.

The idea of delaying the retirement age is being widely supported by government officials, while many laborers and non-government employees were less enthusiastic about the prospect of working for longer. Currently, they have to pay into their pension plans for at least 15 years before they can retire.

Chen Xianlian, a female worker at a motorcycle parts manufacturer in Chongqing municipality is among those who would like to see the retirement age left as it is. “I have to do lots of tough and repetitive work every day and I feel very tired after my working day,” the 41-year-old said. “All my colleagues are discussing the government's possible move to lift the retirement age. None of us wants to work any extra years.”

University graduates also fear that any rise in the retirement age could limit their employment opportunities.

1.We can learn from the passage that ________.

A．China is not planning to push back the age at which workers can retire

B．China is discussing the problem of delaying the retirement age now

C．China is probably going to delay the retirement age

D. China has pushed back the age at which workers can retire

2.The underlined word “hikes” in Paragraph 4 means ________.

A. increasing        B.　 marching        C.　 pushing        D.　 discussing

3.According to the current policy, Chen Xianlian has to work ________ more years from now before her retirement

A. 14            B.　 9            C.　 19            D.　 15

4.Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. All the Chinese people support the new policy.

B. The life expectancy of Chinese people is expected to rise to 73 during the next five years.

C. The retirement age in China will be 60 for men and 55 for female civil servants and 50 for female workers.

D. The government did not set a fixed timetable on the new policy.

5.It can be inferred from the text that ________.

A．Chen Xianlian is a civil servant.

B．Delaying the retirement age is a very complicated issue.

C．Many countries have begun to delay the retirement age.

D．It may be harder for the university graduate to find a job in the future.

China is a land of bicycles. At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, I’ve found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it’s the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors--- silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.

It’s fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks(人行道). Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just can，t provide.

Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.

My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pack”of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didn，t want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.

Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.

I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.

1.According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?

A. Because they are traditional and safe.

B. Because they are convenient and inexpensive.

C. Because they are colorful and available.

D. Because they are fast and environment friendly.

2.The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended ______________.

A. to ride it for fun..

B. to use it for transport.

C. to experience local culture.

D. to improve his riding skills.

3.How did the author feel about his street crossing?

A. It was boring.　　　 B. It was difficult.

C. It was lively.　　　 D. It was wonderful.

4.Which of the following best describes the author’s biking experience?

A. The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.

B. The author was annoyed by the air while riding.

C. The author was praised by the other bikers.

D. The author took great pleasure in biking.
