22、 however hard we may try to delay the process-we grow old. Surgery may remove wrinkles (皱纹), skin which has become less firm may be tightened by a surgical operation on the face, and hair dressers may dye grey hair a more youthful color. But we cannot remain young forever.Advances in medicine have m

23、ade it possible for more people to stay alive longer. However what is important is the quality of life, and people age differently. Some people remain quite well and able to look after themselves when they get old. But others of the same age are not so lucky. They have to go into a nursing home in o

24、rder to receive adequate care.The worst aspect of ageing is that often the mind becomes less alert. As people grow older, they often experience loss of short-term memory, although they may well be able to recall quite easily events that happened long ago. Later they may suffer from dementia (痴呆), a

25、disease which gets gradually worse.By no means all elderly people are in this category. Many senior citizens are in possession of all their faculties and see retirement as a time of freedom.

26、o spend on holidays and other luxuries. Because of this, both businesses and government have a new respect for what is known as grey power.By no means, however, does everyone treat OAPs with respect. There are some cultures which are noted for the great respect with which they treat their old people

27、, but many people in other cultures regard the old as having a very low status in society and treat them accordingly. They often consider old people as having one foot in the grave. Someone should remind them that they, too, will be old one day.31. Elderly people who cannot look after themselves go

31、the most beautiful song just before it dies. The ancient Greek philosopher Socrates talked of this 2, 300 years ago. Socrates explained that the swan was singing because it was happy. T he bird was happy because it was going to serve the Greek God Apollo. Swans were holy to Apollo, the god of poetry

32、 and song. The story of the swans last song found a place in the works of other writers, including the early English writers Chaucer and Shakespeare. And the expression “swan song ” has long been a part of the English language. At first, “swan song ” meant the last work of a poet, musician or writer

33、. Now, it means the final effort of any person. Someones swan song usually is also considered that persons finest work.A political expression with a similar meaning is “the last hurrah”. The expression may be used to describe a politicians last campaign, his final attempt to win cheers and votes. Th

34、e last hurrah also can mean the last acts of a politician, before his term in office ends. Writer Edwin OConnor made the expression popular in 1956. He wrote a book about the final years in the political life of a long time mayor of Boston. He called his book The Last Hurrah.Some language experts sa

35、y the expression came from a name given to noisy supporters of Andrew Jackson, Americas seventh president. They cheered hurrah so loudly for Andy Jackson during his presidential campaign that they became known as the hurrah boys.Jacksons hurrah boys also played a part in the election to choose the n

36、ext president. Jacksons choice was his vice president, Martin Van Buren. A newspaper of the time reported that Van Buren was elected president: “by the hurrah boys, and those who knew just enough to shout hurrah for Jackson.” President Jackson really heard his last hurrahs in the campaign of the man

37、 who would replace him in the White House.36. In ancient times, people believed that a swan sings most beautifully _.A. before death B. when is happy C. for Apollo D. in front of other birds 37.

38、er birds 38. The English expression “swan song”_.A. was first used by Chaucer B. changed its meaning through timeC. means the best song ever created D. refers to a work of Shakespeare 39. Martin Van Buren _.A. was the U.S. president before JacksonB. served as the eighth U.S. president C. is the auth

39、or of The Last Hurrah D. was a political rival of OConnor40.

42、3% in just the past three years.At the same time, growing numbers of traditional source countries for students, from South Korea to Saudi Arabia (沙特阿拉伯), are trying to improve both the quantity and quality of their own degrees, engaging in a fierce and expensive race to recruit students and create w

43、orldclass research universities of their own. Such competition has led to considerable hand-writing in the West. During a 2008 campaign stop, for instance, then-candidate Barack Obama expressed alarm about the threat that such academic competition poses to U.S. competitiveness. Such concerns are not
