加了试题的难度。句意:正如我们先前预料的那样,观众的人数远远超过了一千。引导非限
制性定语从句并能替代整个主句内容的两个关系代词 which 和 as 中,只有 as 有“正如/
像……一样”的意思,但 as 引导的非限制性定语从句可以位于主句前、主句中或主句后,
而 which 引导的非限制性定语从句只能位于主句后,故排除 which 选 as。

法。came up with“提出”符合语境。put up with 容忍,忍受;added up to 总计达;made up
for 弥补,补偿。
答案:B
Ⅱ.阅读理解
Today most Chinese teenagers are happy to be favored by two parents and four grandparents
in their families. But have you ever thought about how to take care of four to twelve old people
when you grow up and get married? This could be a problem for most Chinese youths as China is
entering a new stage of an aging society.
An aging society refers to one where 10 percent or more of its population is over 60. By the
end of 2007, Chinese over 60 years old have made up 11.7 percent of the nation's total population.
“China is getting old before becoming rich ,” said Cai Chuang, a professor at the Chinese
Academy of Social Sciences. The population increase that has powered Chinese growth for three
decades will give way over the next ten years to a rapid aging of the society.This will lead to
weaker economic growth, because of a lack of labor resources.
As a result of the family planning policy, it is expected that the country's total working
population will decrease after 2015.
China is not the only country getting old. More than 60 countries have become aging
societies and one in three people in the European Union is a senior citizen.
However,experts said that China doesn't have a highly developed social security network to
support the old. Social security is an insurance program protecting those in need,including the
old,the disabled and others.
【语篇解读】 中国在没有变富以前就已经开始步入老龄化社会,而且还没有形成一套
高度发展的老有所养的社会保障体系。
