分析 本文主要讲述英国老人们在退休后因养老金难以维持生活,不得不在退休后继续工作以维持生存.

解答 61.The 考查冠词.句中谓语动词has doubled,主语应是单数形式,the number of意为"…的数量",作主语.
62.their 考查代词.in one's 70s意为"在某人七十几时",是固定搭配.
63.highest 考查形容词最高级.the后接形容词最高级.
64.why 考查定语从句.分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句,先行词reason表示原因,在从句中作状语,用关系副词why.
65.Consequently 考查副词.修饰句子要用副词.名词consequence的副词是consequently.
66.has seen 考查动词时态.根据句中时间状语during the last decade,要用现在完成时态,因主语Britain是单数形式,谓语动词也要用单数形式,助动词用has.
67.with 考查介词.此处是with复合结构,即with+名词(代词)+v-ing.
68.to retire 考查动词不定式,afford后接动词时,要用动词不定式,cannot afford to retire意为"还不能退休".
69.choice 考查名词.不定冠a后接名词,动词choose的名词是choice.
70.devoted 考查过去分词.be devoted to意为"致力于…",是固定搭配.

3.A recent study shows that boys and girls learn differently.So ma ybe we can maximize (最大化)learning by teaching them in single gender (性别) programs.
   First,boys and girls see differently.Boys interpret the world as objects moving through space.In their opinion,a good teacher should move around the room constantly and be that object.
   The male eye is usually drawn to cooler colors like silver,blue,black,grey,and brown.It's no accident boys tend to create pictures of moving objects like spaceships,cars,and trucks in dark colors instead of drawing a happy colorful family,like girls in their class.The fem ale eye,on the other hand,is drawn to textures(质地) and colors.They tend to like warmer colors-red,yellow,orange,and visuals with more details,like faces.Girls work well in circles,faci ng each other.Using descriptive(描写性的) phrases in presentations or lots of colors on the chalkboard can help get their attention.
  Boys and girls also hear differently.When someone speaks in a loud tone,girls interpret it as yelling.They think you're mad and should quiet down.Girls are more sensitive to sounds.Girls'teachers should notice the tone of their voices.Boys'teachers should sound matter of fact,even excited.
  Boys'nervous systems cause them to be more alert when they're standing,moving,and the room temperature is around 20℃.Stress in boys tends to increase blood flow to their brains,a process that helps them stay focused.This won't work for girls,who are more focused seated in a warmer room around 25℃.Girls also respond to stress differently.When exposed to a threat,blood goes to their guts(内脏),leaving them feeling nervous or anxious.
