Passage 1

Americans have been relocating to any number of places like the countryside, Mexico, Alaska, the Ozarks, small college towns all around the nation. But before you book a one-way ticket somewhere or clean out your bank account, think again. As it turns out, studies suggest that it may be best for you just to age in place. And for most people reaching old age in 2015, that means growing old in a city. Today, more than 80% of Americans and 54% of the population worldwide live in urban areas. The U.S. number includes more than 33 million people over 65. Thafs a good thing, aging experts say.

“It’s the full panoply that makes a city lively and great for all of its population, but particularly for older adults,⁵⁵ says Paul Irving, who leads a group on aging at the Milken Institute, an economic think tank that recently ranked American large cities based on how suitable they are for growing old. ^:： •

The standard Milken^ study assessed included access to health services, crime rates, weather, housing, job opportunities, transportation and suitability in terms of supporting social factors—including living arrangements, rates of volunteerism and availability of group enrichment programs, such as a library or university. Their decision: of the 100 largest cities in the U.S., Madison, Wis., is the best in which to grow old.

The traffic, expense and difficulty of city life may not sound like the traditional vision of the golden years. But easy access to health care and cultural stimulation helps shift the balance in cities’ favor. In Madison, for example, seniors can take classes at the local university and receive care at one of its two hospitals, and when they don’t feel like to-—or can⁵!—walk around the city, they can make use of an on-demand transportation system designed for those who need it.

Another advantage fbr cities: lots of other people. Academic research supports anecdotal （传闻的）evidence that staying connected has benefits. ^t4As we age, our worlds tend to become smaller, making our close neighborhoods all the more important/’ says Ruth Finkelstein, a longevity and health policy expert at Columbia University. “In addition to their social networks, people also have micro-relationships and connections—the people you’re used to seeing, the sidewalks you⁹re used to walking down, the shops you’re used to going regularly. Those are relationship of reciprocity （互惠）

The urban option may grow even more attractive in the coming years. The World Health

Organization launched an initiative in 2010 to push mayors around the globe to make their cities friendlier to older residents. And even though plans are still in the early stages, some mayors in the U.S. are working to increase affordable housing options, make transportation more accessible and find ways to engage older people in their communities. New York City, for instance, has something called Age-Friendly NYC, which works with the mayor’s office to develop programs for the city’s more than one million residents who are aged 65 or older.

Similar programs in communities around the world are helping to prepare for a fast-changing reality, but cities may be aging faster than public policy is evolving. Just a generation ago, swarms of retirees migrated to the warmth of Florida and the rest of the Sun Belt. Now, 71% of baby boomers say they want to grow older where they spent most of their adult lives, according to a recent survey.

Finkelstein, who led New York City’s initiative for older people, says she is among them. -I am speaking to you from my little teeny-tiny three-storj⁷ wooden house in Brooklyn,” says Finkelstein, 60. “They will carry me out of here in a wooden box.”

41. Why does the author mention the Ozarks in the first paragraph?
42. To point out the difficulty of making life choices.
43. To demonstrate a new trend of returning to large cities.
44. To prove that more places are available for people to stay.
45. To show that people choose to stay away from large cities.
46. Which of the following can best explain the underlined word “panoply” in Paragraph 2?
47. Rich natural resources. A wide range of factors.
48. Numerous places of historic interest. D. A great number of interesting events.
49. What are the most significant advantages of living in cities for old people?
50. Volunteerism and social support. B. Health care and cultural life.
51. Security and modem conveniences. D. Educational and transportation systems.
52. What does Finkelstein mean in the last paragraph?
53. She will stay in New York fbr the rest of her life.
54. She will live in New York unless she is forced to leave.
55. She will live in New York in order to do something for old people.
56. She will stay in New York because she likes her small wooden house.
57. What might be the writer ⁵s purpose of writing this passage?
58. To entertain old residents by offering group enrichment programs.
59. To report the findings of recent studies by some aging experts.
60. To persuade old people spend more time in the countryside.
61. To inform seniors of the benefits of living in cities.

Passage 2

1. Anders Ericsson, a professor of psychology at Florida State University, conducted a study in Berlin and found that the amount of time successful musicians spent practicing each day was surprisingly low—a mere 90 minutes per day. In fact, the most successful musicians not only practiced less, but also took more naps throughout the day and indulged in breaks during practice when they grew tired or stressed. It has long been known that working too much leads to life-shortening stress. It also leads to disengagement at work, as focus simply cannot be sustained fbr much more than 50 hours a week. Even Henry Ford knew the problem with overwork when he cut his employees⁵schedules from 48-hour weeks to 40-hour weeks. He believed that working more than 40 hours a week had been causing his employees to make many errors, as he recounted in his autobiography, My Life and Work.

What if we viewed leisure time not as slacking, but as necessary time for reflecting? Of course, some low-income workers are forced to work long hours or multiple jobs just to make ends meet. But why do many other employees—including those who are incredibly well compensated—still overwork themselves even when they often don’t have to?

Alexandra Michel, a University of Pennsylvania professor, found that at two well-known investment banks employees were working an average of 120-hour weeks (as in, 17 hours a day, every day). This led workers, as Michel writes, to not only “neglect family and health,” but also to work long hours even when their bosses did not force them to—and when they knew that working that 16th and 17th hour a day wouldn’t make them any more productive. Michel concluded that hardworking individuals put in long hours not for “rewards, punishments, or obligation.” Rather, they do so “because they cannot conceive otherwise even when it does not make sense to do so.”

It seems silly that many work long hours simply fbr the sake of having worked long hours. Perhaps the reason people overwork even when it is not for “reward, punishment, or obligation⁵⁵ is that it holds great social prestige. Busyness implies hard work, which implies good character, a strong education, and either present or future wealth. The phrase, T can’t; I’m busy,” sends a signal that you⁹re not just an homme seriewc (serious man), but an important one at that. There is also a belief in many countries, the United States especially, that work is an inherently noble pursuit. Many feel lost without the driving structure of work in their life—ven if that structure is neither proportionally profitable nor healthy in a physical or psychological sense.

Everyone would likely agree with Aristotle that “we work to have leisure, on which happiness depends,” The motivation for employees to work hard is the carrot of a relaxing retirement. Yet this cause-and-effect often gets flipped (本末彳到置)，and we fit our lives into our work, rather than fitting our work into our lives. The widespread belief that happiness and life satisfaction can be found exclusively through hard work is at heart more a management myth meant to motivate workers than a philosophical statement. In his 1932 essay “In Praise of Idleness,the British philosopher Bertrand Russell corrects this idea, writing, “A great deal of harm is being done in the modem world by belief in the virtuousness (德行)of work.⁵⁵ Rather, “the road to happiness and prosperity lies in an organized reduction of work.”

That is to say happiness is ultimately not found in late nights spent at work, but in finding a way to work less, even if that means buying fewer things or readjusting your perspective. After all, having free time doesn’t necessarily suggest moral shortcomings.

46. For what reason did Henry Ford cut his employees⁵working hours?
47. He was aware of the consequence of overwork.
48. He was afraid that their lifespan might be shorter.
49. He was concerned about payments to his employees.
50. He was kind-hearted and generous to his employees.
51. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the phrase “well compensated” in Para. 2?
52. Well refunded. Well trained.
53. Well paid. D. Well educated.
54. What does Alexandra Michel aim to illustrate by using the example of investment banks?
55. Overworking has become some peopled lifestyle.
56. People with higher income do not need to overwork.
57. Overwork damages both family relationships and health.
58. Hardworking people are motivated by a sense of’responsibilily/- .’ ‘ -.
59. Which of the following may account for the “hard work,, of high-income people?
60. The ambition they have. B. The promotion they pursue.
61. The good reputation it holds. D. The wealth it is likely to bring.
62. Which of the following may reflect the author’s view of work?
63. We should put leisure before work.
64. It works to pursue happiness via work.
65. Life satisfaction lies mainly in hard work.
66. We should work to live, but not live to work.
