阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C 和D 项中,选出最佳选项。
A
The government in China plans to end its one-child policy and let families have two children
instead.
The plan was announced on Thursday after high –level political meetings in Beijing. A Chinese
Communist Party statement gave a number of reasons for the change in policy. The statement said the
change is meant to balance population development, stop a falling birth rate( 出生率) and strengthen the
country’s labor force(劳动力).
China, with the largest population in the world, started the one –child policy in 1980. But the
government allowed only a small number of couples to have two children. For example, some
families in the countryside could have two children, if the
first-born child is a girl.
In 2013, the Chinese government gave other couples a
chance to have two children if one of
them was an only child.
Jiang Quanbao, a teacher and population expert, explained
how Chinese families react to the
newest policy. “Too many young people in the cities are no
longer interested in having a second
child,” he said. “People in the countryside are more interested.
But some of them are already
allowed to have two children. ”
At the end of 2014, China had a population of 1.37 billion people. A total of 800 million of
them have jobs. But the labor market population will drop in 35 years. That is to say, the country
will be in great need of labor by the year 2050. With the two-child policy, an increase in births can
solve this problem.
Boys and girls, what do you think of the two-child policy? Do you want to have a new-born
brother or a sister?
26. Why does the government plan to end the one-child policy?
A. Because we need a larger population.
B. Because millions of people have jobs.
C. Because most families want to have a second child.
D. Because a falling birth rate must be stopped.
27. How do most young people in the cities react to the two-child policy?
A. They support the policy. B. They don’t think it is good.
C. They’re very interested. D. They’re not interested any more.
28. When will our country be seriously short of labor if the one-child policy continues?
A. In 2015. B. In 2035. C. In 2050. D. In 2070
29. What’s the order of the following events?
①The two-child policy was announced.
②China had a population of 1.37 billion people.
③Some families in the countryside could have two children.
④Families could have two children if one parent was an only child.
A. ③④②① B. ②①④③ C. ④③②① D. ③①④②
30. What may happen after we have the two-child policy?
A. There will be more old people.
B. The labor market population will drop.
C. Almost every family will have a second child.
D. The population development will be balanced.
B

Directors-General Bokova, ladies and gentlemen.
It gives me a great pleasure to join you for this important initiative(大会) as the UN marks its
70th anniversary(周年).
Education is very close in my heart. My father grew up in a very small village in China. In
those days, not many villagers could read. So my father opened a night school to teach them how
to read. With his help, many people learned to write their own names; with his help, many people
learned to read newspapers for the first time; with his help, many women were able to teach their
children how to read. As this daughter, I know what education means to the people, especially
those without it.
After generations of hard work, China has come a long way in education. I myself am a
beneficiary(受益者) of that progress. Otherwise I would never become a soprano(女高音) and a
professor of musical. I am following my father’s footsteps to help continue China’s successful
story.
I want to thank Director-General Bokova and UNESCO(联合国教科文组织) for naming me
the Special Envoy for women and Girls Education(促进女童和妇女教育特使).I am truly honored
to work with the UN and do something about Global Education. I have visited many schools
around the world. I’ve seen first-hand on how much we can do for education.
Education is about women and the girls. It is important for girls to go to the school because
they will become their children’s first teacher some day. But women still account for over half of
the world’s poor in population and 60% of adults who can’t read. In China, Spring Bud Education
Program(春蕾计划) has helped over 3 million girls go back to school. Many of them have
finished university education and they are doing well at work.
Education is about equality(平等). In poor countries and regions the number of school
dropouts(辍学) is astonishing. We call for more educational resources to these places.
Education is about the young people. Young people are the future. Education is important
because it not only gave young people knowledge and skills but also help them become
responsible citizens.
As the UNESCO special envoy and the mother myself, my commitment(职责) to education
for all will never change. Many years ago my father made a small difference in his village.
Together we can make a big difference in the world.
I was once asked about my Chinese dream. I said I hope all children especially girls can have
access to good education. This is my Chinese dream. I believe one day education first will
no longer be a dream, it will be a reality enjoyed by every young woman on this planet.
Thank you very much.

第三节书面表达(共1 小题,满分15 分)
I can fully understand your situation. In my opinion, you should make good use of your
mobile phone. Your parents won't take your phone away if you only use it to make phone calls
when necessary. But if you use it to play games or chat with your friends, it will be a waste of time
and do harm to your health and your study.
For the problem communicating with your parents, I suggest you should talk to them more
often and try to understand their minds. The biggest reason for this problem is that your ways of
looking at things are very different. So you should be patient with your parents and never argue
with them, or the things will get even worse.
With a little hard work, you can learn to communicate better with your parents. I hope my
advice can be helpful to you.
