16.M'Kenzie and Derek Tillotson,of Utah,USA,are planning to embark on an epic trip around the world with their three young children,and are looking for a travel nanny(保姆)to help them on their journey.They posted a Facebook video hoping to get a few dozen applications,but ended up with messages from nearly 20,000 people hoping to get the job.
The couple runs a family travel blog called‘Five Take Flight'and recently decided to sell their home in Utah and go on an unforgettable adventure around the world.They plan to leave in July,flying from their home in Utah to New York City,then to Iceland,and the rest of Europe.They'll return to their home city for a two weeks over Christmas,before flying to Hawaii,New Zealand,and finally Asia.It sounds like an incredible experience,but it's also going to be pretty tough to manage with three kids,which is why they've decided to take someone to travel with them and lend a hand when necessary.
"You'll be an honorary member of the family and will be treated with respect and be able to voice your opinion."The travel nanny will be required to handle most of the homeschooling for the couple's two boys,while also looking after their baby sister and also handle some of the cooking and cleaning.
"It's hard to define your exact hours because you will be living with us,but you will have time to yourself every day for sure,and one to two times a week you'll be able to go off on your own."The Tillotsons add that the chosen person will receive a monthly salary of 1200-1500 for their work besides travel expenses and other living costs.However,a number of people have pointed out that the sum is still very low for the requirements.

5.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?A

10.For young people,friends are often determined by their being close.Whoever is around is your friend.As humans get older,they become more selective (讲究的) in choosing whom they spend time with,as well as how they spend their time.According to a new study,the same goes for monkeys.The findings,in the journal Cell Biology,suggest human selectivity may be a very strong part of our evolutionary history (进化史).
"An important finding suggests that humans become more socially selective when they know that their remaining life time is limited,such as in old age,"Professor Laura Almeling explained."We don't think that monkeys are aware of their own limited future time.Therefore,if they show similar changes in old age,their selectivity cannot be attributed to their knowledge about a limited future time,"she continued.
Researchers showed a variety of new animal toys,only one of which included a food treat,to a group of African monkeys.Young monkeys quickly grew out of their interest in the toys,preferring only the object that included food once they grew up.
Researchers also measured how monkeys'social activities change as they age,by watching and measuring their responses to pictures and sounds of friends.
Although older monkeys still took part in and remained interested in group activities,they put less time and energy into social relationships."With increasing age,the monkeys became more selective in their social activities,"Almeling said."They had fewer‘friends'and put less time into social activities.Interestingly,however,they were still interested in what was going on in their social world.Older females continued to respond particularly strongly to hearing a scream for help from their best friend,"Almeling explained."Older males still liked to look at pictures of the newborns,"she said.

B.Monkeys become closer to each other as they get older.
C.Monkeys get more selective as they get older.

14.Today many people live longer lives with more physical and mental strength.The"life cycle"from childhood to adulthood and into older age is different from previous generations.How are ideas about the life cycle changing?
One American writer,Gail Sheehy,has identified some new trends in the life cycle.She separates life into decades,10-year sections.Her definitions are optimistic and positive,and they may help people understand themselves as they grow older.
The ages between twenty and thirty are times of experimentation.People in their twenties try many new things with a lot of energy.They search for a path for their lives.Their responsibilities are not usually serious,and they can experiment with lifestyles choices.But when they become thirty,they pass to a stage called"First Adulthood."In this stage of life,people begin to think for themselves.They become independent and more ambitious.They begin to define themselves within society.
In the next stage of life,the forties,people begin to prepare themselves for leadership positions.Gail Sheehy sees people in their forties as working hard.They want to be successful.They have to take care of their families and begin to be masters of their work and themselves.She calls moving from this stage into the fifties the passage to the"Age of Mastery."People in fifties have new positive feeling.They begin to see different things they can do with their lives.They become adventurers.They also begin to question their values.They want to live their lives better,with more truth.They struggle to understand the world and themselves.
She calls the next stage the"Age of Integrity."When people become sixty,they want to live their lives with real values.They work to keep their minds active.They recommit themselves to their families with love.They begin to take some active risk-taking for the future.It is a time of real maturity.Ms.Sheehy calls people in their seventies wise,people in their eighties free,and those in their nineties noble.The life cycle Ms.Sheehy writes about is long and hopeful.

16.According to Gail Sheehy,the life cycleB.
A.goes through 3stages
B.can be divided into different ages lasting ten years long
C.helps people understand themselves better.
D.determines people's life styles

A.where people take up a lot of serious responsibilities
B.where people are between twenty and thirty
C.that is most important period of the life cycle
D.where people tend to be independent and more ambitious
18.To Ms.Sheehy's eye,people in their seventies areC?
A.free        
B.mature          
C.wise           
D.adventurers.
