　　例题二

　　46. Employers should realise it is important to keep older workers in the workplace.

　　【答案】F

　　【解析】提取定位词Employers和older workers可以定位到F段第二句，题目是对文章原句的同义转述。其中，题干Employers should realise同义表达了原文：Employers still need to be persuaded that;并且题干的important to keep同义转述了原文的worth holding on to。

　　47. A recent study found that most old people in some European countries had regular weekly contACT with their adult children.

　　【答案】K

　　【解析】题干定位词A recent study和European countries可以定位到K段最后一句，题干的some European countries对应原文的11 European countries;题干的most old people对应原文the majority of them，题干had regular weekly contACT对应原文的 were in touch at least once a week。

　　48. Few governments in rich countries have launched bold reforms to tackle the problem of population ageing.

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】题干定位词governments和reforms可以定位到D段第二句，题目是对原文信息的归纳。文中的句子理解起来难度不大，其中many of them have embarked on reforms, but so far only timidly. but转折再加上only的运用，就可以理解为对应了Few governments have launched bold reforms;而their pension and health-care promises will soon become unaffordable 形容词unaffordable被48题抽象概括为 the problem of population ageing。

　　49. In a report published some 20 years ago, the sustainability of old-age pension systems in most countries was called into doubt.

　　【答案】A

　　【解析】首先时间20 years ago我们可以推测出是20时间90年代，再结合report和sustainability可以定位到A段，A段中出现了数字1994年，而题目用some 20 years ago来转述，符合。同学也要注意这是出题人惯用的方式(题干中的时间表达一般不会照搬原文，而经常会换一种方式表达，以增加定位难度)。另外，题干的the sustainability of ... into doubt是对原文pension arrangements ... were unsustainable的转述，这里要注意最后的那个call into doubt(受到质疑)是关键。

　　50. Countries that have a shortage of young adults will be less willing to send them to war.

　　【答案】M

　　【解析】定位词a shortage of young adults可以定位到M段第一句话。题干的less willing to同义转述了原文的more reluctant to;reluctant to不情愿做某事，就是less willing。而send them to war又是对原文commit the few they have to military service的同义转述。

　　51. One-child families are more common in ageing societies due to the stress of urban life and the difficulties of balancing family and career.

　　【答案】I

　　【解析】首先出现数字one，可以标记下来。再结合urban life和family and career可以定位到I段的最后三句话。I段说，发达国家的都市生活不适合大家庭，女人们发现很难兼顾家庭和工作，她们经常以只要一个孩子作为妥协。数字one完全对应，由此可得答案。

　　52. A series of books, mostly authored by Americans, warned of conflicts between the older and younger generations.

　　【答案】B

　　【解析】冲突conflict表明态度方向，可以提取，再结合名词books和by Americans可以定位到B段，原文的主语中的a succession of换成了它的近义词组A series of;并且mainly by Americans换成：mostly authored by Americans;sounded the alarm 警告alarm改成同义表达 warned of;而intergenerational两代人之间的，就是指between the older and younger generations;而warfare战争、冲突则被替换成conflicts。

　　53. Compared with younger ones, older societies tend to be less innovative and take fewer risks.

　　【答案】J

　　【解析】53题两个比较级，说老年人创新力更少，冒风险会更少。所以结合定位词older societies以及less innovative、fewer risks可以定位到J段第三句话，题目中的tend to对应原文中的may;less innovative重现;并且题目中的take fewer risks对应原文中strongly disinclined to take risks。disinclined意思叫做不愿、不想。

　　54. The best solution to the pension crisis is to postpone the retirement age.

　　【答案】E

　　【解析】极端表达词一定要提取出来，所以这里的最高级The best solution可以当做定位词。那么在E段的第三句话中，它就是对原文the most effective method的改写;postpone the retirement age推迟退休年龄，说的就是原文E段中的work longer。

　　55. Immigration as a means to boost the shrinking labour force may meet with resistance in some rich counties.

　　【答案】H

　　【解析】根据题干定位词Immigration、means和resistance可以定位到H段，H段的第一句就提到“在应对劳动力不足的这个问题上，移民似乎是完美的解决方案”。这句话对应55题的前半部分，而H段的倒数第二句话又说到：根据民意测验显示，大多数富裕国家的人认为移民已经太多。最后一句话，若移民人数继续增加可能会在政治上，形容词unfeasible意思是“难以实行、实施的”，也就是说从政治角度行不通，正对应55题题干的meet with resistance，所以答案为H段。
