   In our life, we often regret what we did and which wecouldn't do. Actually, it doesn't benefit us at all. As for most of us, we missed many chance to earn more money, to get a high position and to realize our dreams. We often regret that we don't seize those opportunities, thus feel upset. Al?though we do know regretting the past is no benefit, but we still can't help doing it.

To avoid the problem below, we need to pay more atten?tion to what you are doing now, making us busier and having no time to recall the past. Moreover, we'd better set reasona?bly goals one by one. Only by doing so can we struggle for our future better.

   If you had a strange sound in your ear, what would you do? One man in Wales who thought he had a fly in his ear called 999, the emergency services number in Britain. And so did a woman who was worried about her green potatoes. Could she make chips with them? Were they poisonous? She didn't hesitate about calling the local ambulance service to ask. According to a recent report, more than 31,000 non-ur?gent calls were made to the Welsh Ambulance Service in the last year.

   Inappropriate calls are a headache for health profession?als everywhere. In the US,prank calls to 911 happen on a dai?ly basis. Many callers use apps which hide their identities. But those who try to be funny shouldn't be surprised if the police have the last laugh. One man from Colorado was arrested for making more than 1,200 prank calls,according to a report on the US television station KOAA-TV.

People who take these calls are trained to stay calm and keep a straight face, no matter how strange the calls sound. "There's no way for us to know whether the call is real,acci?dental or a prank call," said a public safety worker inter?viewed by the American TV channel.

The Head of Clinical Services at the Welsh Ambulance Service, Richard Lee, has a warning for prank callers. He says,"When people misuse the service it means our precious time is being taken away from someone who really does need our help. £¬£¬ Indeed,these hotlines are supposed to help the se?riously ill or those with a life-threatening injury. You never know,one day,the person who needs assistance could be you or someone in your family.

A Korean wave is sweeping across China, with many Chinese women worshipping Korean actors Kim Soo-hyun and Lee Min-ho as demigods (±»Éñ»¯µÄÈËÎï).Chinese denizens always have different opinions over Korean TV dramas, but there is no doubt that pro?grammes from the neighbouring country are now enjo?ying a new round of popularity in China. And a big part of the credit for that goes to You Who Came from the Star £¬ the Korean TV series.

You Who Came from the Star and The Heirs (¡¶¼Ì³ÐÕßÃÇ¡·)have been subjects of hot online discussions throughout Asia. Besides, the book, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, read by the hero in You Who Came from the Star was a hard-to-get item on Am?azon for a while.

The two TV programmes have several common ele?ments M) £º a tall, handsome, and rich hero who loves the heroine blindly and always protects her, and an equally handsome man madly in love with the same woman. Both programmes describe the purity of love, which is expressed through a kiss or a warm hug. Per?haps that's the secret of their success; perhaps people still like Cinderella-type stories.

The widening wealth gap is a matter of social con?cern both inKoreaandChina, and the challenges that young people face in their hope for a better life might have caused many ordinary girls to dream of marrying rich, caring men. This is precisely what the popular Ko?rean TV dramas describe. In fact > Korean TV dramas are tailored to meet the market's demands.

Many denizens even said at an earlier time that Ko?rean TV dramas had become popular because of their stereotyped (ģʽ»¯µÄ)themes£º traffic accidents, canc?er and other incurable diseases. But all that has changed with the success of You Who Came from the Star and The Heirs £¬ which Chinese directors can use as exam?ples, as well as inspiration, to improve their produc?tions,

1.Which is NOT included in the elements for the suc?cess of Korean dramas?

Dbe shown in a big market

3The main purpose of stereotyped themes in Korean dramas is to .

4.In the last sentence £¬  about Chinese dramas £¬ the writer expressed his .

B [2015 •ÄϾ©ÊС¢ÑγÇÊиßÈýÄ꼶µÚÒ»´ÎÄ£Ä⡽According to figures released by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) £¬ the UK has about 7. 7 million families with dependent children, of which 3. 7 million have just one child, compared to 3 million with two and 1. 1 million with three children or more. The number of families today with just one dependent child is now 47 per cent and will likely rise to more than 50 per cent in a decade. As the ONS confirms, "It ap?pears that families are getting smaller."

One obvious reason for this could be that women are put-ting off having children until they have established careers when they are bound to be less fertile. But it could just as well be a matter of choice. Parents must consider the rising cost of living, combined with economic uncertainty and an in?creasingly difficult job market. And this trend may continue growing as having an only child becomes more normal, which seems to be the mood on the mothers' online forum Mums-net, where one member announced that she "just wanted to start a positive thread about how fab it is to have an only child".

She had received 231 replies, overwhelmingly in the same upbeat spirit. Parents of only children insist there are plenty of benefits. Nicola Kelly, a writer and lecturer who grew up as an only child and is now a married mother of one child, says her 15-year-old son seems more grown-up in many ways than his contemporaries.

Not all products of single-child families are as keen to re-' peat the experience.  In a moving recent account journalist Janice Turner wrote about her own keenness to "squeeze out two sons just 22 months apart" as a reaction to her only-child upbringing.

She was placed on a pedestal by her doting parents, whom she punished with a "brattish, wilful" rejection of eve?rything they stood for. Desperate for a close friend she was repeatedly shattered by rejection and refers to her childhood as being "misery".

Writer and clinician Dr Dorothy Rowe, a member of the British Psychological Society £¬ says that we all interpret events in our own individual way and there are some children who no matter what their circumstances feel slighted, while other children see the advantages of their situation.

However, the one part of life that is unlikely to get any easier for only children is when they grow up and find them?selves looking after their own parents as they become older.

5.The passage is written with the purpose of___________ .

 A.     illustrating the strength and weakness of having an on?ly child

B.     analysing the reasons why having an only child be?comes popular

C.     presenting us with different opinions about having an only child

D.     guiding people to look at the same issue from different perspectives

6. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?

 A.     Nearly half of families intend to have just one child.

B.     All people don't stand for the idea of having an only child.

C.     Some people fail to recognize the advantage of having an only child.

D.     People brought up in an only child family resist down?sizing the family.

7. From what Dr Dorothy Rowe said, we know that____________ .

 A.    journalist Janice Turner experienced a miserable child?hood

B.     she has a positive attitude towards Janice Turner's re?action

C.     it's necessary for us to look at the event from our own angle

D.    some are unable to make an objective assessment of their conditions

8.What can be inferred from the passage?

 A.     It's normal to see the imperfection in character in only children.

B.      Mumsnet is an online forum which promotes having an only child.

C.      Economic development plays a determining role in the family size.

D.     Only children will have difficulty in attending to their parents.

There are many older people in the world and there will be many more. A little-known fact is that over 60 per cent of the older people live in developing countries. According to the World Health Organization, by 2020 there will be 1 billion, with over 700 million living in developing countries.

It is a surprising fact that the population ageing is particularly rapid in developing countries. For example, it tookFrance115 years for the proportion of older people to double from 7 per cent to 14 per cent. It is esti?mated to takeChinaa mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.

What are the implications of these increased numbers of older folk? One of the biggest worries for gov?ernments is that the longer people live, the more likeli?hood there is for diseases and for disability. Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possi?ble, including during old age, to lessen the financial burden on the state.

Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society. In some African countries, certainly in Asia, older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge. Yet traditions are fading away daily, which does not ensure the continued high regard of older people. As society changes, attitudes will change.

Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination (ÆçÊÓ)in employment. Life-long learning programmes need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country's development.

Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people. Both public and private schemes are vital in order to build a suitable safety net.

To achieve equality in such matters will take con?siderable time and effort. One thing is sure: there is no time to be lost.

5. According to the passage, which of the following are governments most worried about?

A.The longer life and good health of people.

B.The diseases and disability of older people.

C.The loss of taxes on older people.

D.The increasing respect for older people.

6.It is stated directly in the passage that older people

should    .

A.be treated differently in different cultures

B.enjoy a similar lifestyle

C.be valued by the younger generations

D.be ignored as society changes

7.Which of the following measures is NOT mentioned to solve the population ageing problem?

A.Getting rid of age discrimination in employment.

B.Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.

C Supplying life-long learning programmes to older people.

D.Providing free health care for sick older people.

8.The author concludes in the last paragraph that

A.governments have spent lots of time in solving the ageing problem

B.people are too busy to solve the population age?ing problem

C.population ageing is a hard problem, but it needs to be solved urgently

D.much time and effort will be lost in solving the ageing problem
