17．A strange，new dilemma faces Chinese pedestrians：should you help an elderly person who has fallen into the street？The answer seems simple．Your conscience forces you to help someone in danger．But many Chinese are discovering that some of these injured people are scammers．They accuse good Samaritans（好心人） of having knocked them over in the first place，and they file complaints in hopes of receiving large amounts of compensation．
There are frequent reports on such incidents and following disputes．On Sept 8，a new case happened in Huainan，Anhui province．Yuan Chen，a 20-year-old college student from Huainan Normal University，claimed that she helped an injured elderly woman on the street．But the woman's family has demanded that Yuan take full responsibilities for the injuries．
Since the incident happened in the security cameras'blind spot，both sides are looking for witnesses to clear their names．The local police department is also investigating the case．But how can you possibly solve a case like this，where the only evidence comes from two conflicting viewpoints？
"This kind of cases should follow the principle of‘the burden of proof lies with the person making the claim'，"Ye Lin，a law professor from Renmin University of China，told China Central Television．The burden of proof means the collection of proof or evidence．In civil cases，"if you accuse someone of causing you harm or losses，you should collect convincing proof to back your claim，"said Ye．"If you cannot do that，the law will not be able to support your claim．"
The law may not resolve all the problems，however．Some elderly people choose to blackmail（敲诈） their helpers because they do not have health insurance．To prevent this，the country needs to put in place a better social security net．

12．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the first paragraph？B
A．Conscience is troublesome because it compels you to help someone who will set you up in return．
B．Sometimes the warm-hearted are wrongly accused of having knocked others over．
C．It is advisable for Chinese people to turn a blind eye to someone in danger．
D．There's no doubt that the elderly usually fell down on purpose to claim compensation．
13．What does the sentence in paragraph 3"both sides are looking for witnesses to clear their names"mean？D
A．Both sides are in search of someone who can call out their names．
B．Both sides are in search of evidence that can clarify their opinions．
C．Both sides are in search of evidence that can wash away their crimes．
D．Both sides are in search of someone who can prove they are telling the truth．
14．What can we infer from Ye Lin，the law professor's words？C
A．Ye Lin thinks it is Yuan Chen who is responsible for gathering proof．
B．In civil cases，the accused should collect proof as well to reject the claim．
C．The principle regards the accused as innocent until convincing proof can be provided．
D．Since it is hard to collect convincing proof，both sides should take on the responsibility．
15．What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows？B
A．To make comments on this hot social phenomenon．
B．To emphasize the necessity of an improved social security system．
C．To analyze deep causes of the elderly blackmailing their helpers．
D．To illustrate the impact brought about by the blackmail on our society．

1．America is growing older．For fifty years，only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older．Today，10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65．The aging of the populations will affect aspects of society-education，medicine，housing，and business．The graying of American has made us a very different society-one in which people have quite a different perception （认识） of what kind of behavior is proper at various ages．
An adult's age no longer tells you anything about that person's economic or marital status （婚姻状况），lifestyle，or health．There's no longer a particular year，or even a particular decade，in which one gets married or goes to work or goes to school or has children．The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to get married，to school，get a job，or retire isn't as strong as it used to be．It doesn't surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time．Public attitudes are changing．
Many people say，"I am much younger than my mother or my father was at my age．"No one says，"Act your age，"anymore．We've stopped looking with disagreement at older people who act in youthful ways．
13．The best explanation of the expression"acting your age"isB．
A．acting a part of a play when you are old enough
B．doing the things that people expect you of your age to do
C．playing an important role in the society when you are grown up
D．working hard and supporting the family when you are an adult
14．According to the passage，the population in America is getting older，which will affect all of the following exceptB？
A．ho using and business  
B．birth rate     
C．medicine            
D．education
15．Choose the best one to complete the sentence"An adult's age used to tell people something about what person'sD．"
A．schooling and interest  
B．family and housing
C．ability to so something  
D．health，lifestyle，economic or marital status．
11．My sister Grace Halloran spent most of her teen years in and out of the juvenile institutions（少管所） for minor offenses but，at 18 she was sent to prison for stealing a car．After three years behind the bars，she was released．Only a few years later，she was given a sentence far worse-she had an incurable and progressive disorder and would be totally blind．Meanwhile，Grace was also happily pregnant but terrified she would never see her child's face．She believed she would succeed as a mother，although"success"had never been in her vocabulary before．She managed well despite fading vision．
For years she kept consulting specialists about her eye problems，only to be told that her son would also be blind by the time he was a teenager．She swore to find something，anything，to prevent him from facing her fate．When conventional medicine offered no hope，Grace began a personal quest．She entered a local college．The office for disabled students had her reading assignments put on cassette tapes so that she could listen and learn．She began studying anatomy，physiology and other health sciences．Everyone knowing her was astonished at her persistence to educate herself，restore her vision and keep focused on raising a son who would have perfect eyesight．
Eventually Grace's own way worked and she earned the Ph．D．in Holistic Health for her successful work in improving serious eye disorder．Her eyesight slowly improved so much that she was able to qualify for a driving license．Even better，her son had perfect vision and was accepted into the Air Force．

18．Mr．Smith lived in an old and low house．His wife was blind in both eyes and the two children were very young．All his family often went hungry （挨饿）．He had nothing but a small piece of field．One autumn he grew some wheat in his field．He hoped it would do well because all family would depend on it．The whole winter it often snowed．And the next spring the wheat was doing well．Mr．Smith was happy．One day Mr．Smith went to watch his wheat．To his surprise，a lot of crops were eaten up by a horse．He became angry but could not find out whose horse had eaten them．He thought the horse would go there again．So he decided to stay in his field and tried to catch the horse．
A few days later a yellow horse came in his field again and began to eat the wheat．Mr．Smith ran after it quickly，with a stick in his hand．But the beast ran much faster than him．He tried his best，but could not catch up with it．The next morning，when Mr．Smith was working in his field，he saw the yellow horse pulling carriage on the road．He picked up a stick at once，ran closer to the horse and began to beat it up．
The driver was surprised and stopped him．He asked，"Why are you beating my horse？"
"It has nothing to do with you，"Mr．Smith said angrily．"The beast knows why I'm beating him!"

15．Kenya is losing an average of 100of its 2，000lions each year because of growing human  settlements，increasing farming，climate change and diseases，according to the Kenya Wildlife Service （KWS）．
"Lions have a special place in Kenyans'life，"said Paul Udoto，a spokesman for the organization．"Other than being the symbol of national strength，they are among the Big Five，a main attraction for visitors to Kenya．"
There were 2，749lions in Kenya in 2002and Uieir population dropped to 2，280by 2004  and to about 2，000today，according to KWS figures．
"The fall of the lion population is worrying and every effort needs to be made to make sure that Kenya either protects its population of 2000lions at present or increases the numbers to an ecologically acceptable level，"said Mr．Udoto．
"There is no doubt that the numbers are in free fall．Id be surprised if they even last as  long as 20years，"said Laurence Frank，project director of Living With Lions，a Kenya-based animal protection organization?i?Wen I first came here 30years ago，I would always hear lions roaring across the land at night and see their tracks in the morning．Now that is very rare．
"The reason is simple．As the numbers of people grow and the numbers of cows increase  they take up much of the lion's space．Alongside that there are other ways，including poisoning 9to kill lions．"
Animal lovers are making a new strategy to save the animals．Part of the measures will include tracking lions fitted with radio collars in the Amboseli area in southern Kenya，close to the border with Tanzania．
Wildlife officials in Tanzania face similar challenges in protecting their lions，but there is far less human encroachment （侵入）on the animals'homeland there than in Kenya，
25．What is the main reason of Kenya appreciating lions'existence？D
A．lions are the symbol of the national strength．
B．Lions are among the most endangered animals．
C．Lions are a subject of great concern to Kenyans．
D．Lions are the major appeal for foreign tourists．
26．What does Laurence Frank mean by saying"they even last as long as 20years"？A
A．It is alarming that the number of lons is declining at a high speed．
B．It is amazing that he has tolerated the decline for such a long time．
C．It is fascinating that many evidences have proven the decline trend，
D．It is surprising that a lion should live as long as twenty years in Kenya．
27．In which aspect does the striking difference between Kenya and Tanzania in lion protection lie？B
A．Climate changes．
B．Increasingly fanning．
C．Natural disasters*
D．Outbreaks of epidemics （流行病）．
16．The police are offering a  $60，000 _____ for information about the killer．（　　）
