  On Saturday, the club will hold the Palms of Largo Fifth Annual Doll Show.The program will include 37 vendors(卖主)with both classic and contemporary dolls for sale.

  “Timeless Treasures is a club that's open to doll lovers regardless of the age of the doll,” said Judy Smith, president of the organization.“Some doll clubs require members have a certain number of antique dolls, but we don't.we make sure we are not terribly formal.”

  Smith, 71, is a retired schoolteacher who owns Judy's Doll Hospital, a part-time business she operates out of her home.She will have a table offering repair and appraisal(鉴定)services.

  “She's 129,” Smith said.“It is a German-made doll that belonged to my grandmother, and it sits in my living room.”

  The show is for both the beginner as well as the experienced collector, said Anita Munson, one of the show's organizers.

  Over the years, Munson, 82, has learned how to identify a valuable doll.“Generally speaking porcelain(瓷制的)dolls are the most valuable,” she said.“But the porcelain will not be shiny.”

America is growing older. Fifty years ago, 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 population will affect (影响) American society in many ways — education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the graying of America has made us a very different society— one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior(行为)is suitable (合适)at various ages. A person's age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position, marriage or health. There's no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school ,get a job, or stop working 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 firs time. Public ideas 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 surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.

1.It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America_________  .

A.has made people feel younger

B.has changed people's social position

C. has changed people's understanding of age

D. has slowed down the country's social development

2.The underlined word ‘one’ refers to_________.

A. a society        B. America                C. a place                 D. population

3.‘Act your age’ means people should_________.

A.be active when they are old

B.do the right thing at the right age

C. show respect for their parents young or old

D. take more physical exercise suitable to their age

4.If a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it ______.

A.normal            B.wonderful              C.unbelievable                   D.unreasonable
