Japan and Germany have the world's oldest populations, but neither country has enough trained health care workers to meet the needs of older adults．So, they are turning to Vietnam for help．
This month, 100 young Vietnamese are going to Germany as part of a project to train what are called geriatric 〔老年保健〕nurses to work in the European country．The trainees recently completed a six-month language and culture class in Hanoi; they will spend the next two years in an occupational training program．If the trainees pass the final exam, they will be able to work in Germany as geriatric nurses for another 3 years．Germany is facing a crisis as low birth rates combine with a growing population of citizens who are living longer．About 20 percent of the population is over the age of 65, and that percentage is expected to continue rising．This is a problem Japan also faces．Later this year, 150 Vietnamese candidates will go to Japan for two years of training at the country's hospitals．After that they are expected to take the national nursing exam．Japan already trains nurses from the Philippines and Indonesia, but the health care system has been criticized for being too restrictive．All candidates must take the same exam, but it is very difficult for foreign applicants because few can speak the Japanese language．Yoko Tsuruya is the first secretary at the Japan's embassy in Hanoi．She says foreign nationals are given some help to complete the test, like being given more time to answer questions．To improve training, the government plans to combine language classes with real-life
experience on the job．Even with an aging population, many Japanese are opposed to foreigners working in some industries．Critics say foreign labor could lead to higher unemployment, but there is little opposition to foreign nurses．
36．Germany and Japan need Vietnam's help for ________．
A．their good relationship with Vietnam
B．lacking workers for health care
C．their nurses training programme
D．solving the poverty problems
37．The problem in the two countries is caused by _______．

B．over-developed economy
C．low birth rates and elderly populations
D．desire for much more money
38．From the passage, we can conclude that _______．

On the last day before Christmas, I hurried to a store to buy some gifts．While looking in the toys section, I noticed a small boy of about five years old, pressing a doll against his chest．Keeping on touching the hair of the doll, the boy murmured sadly, "I don't have enough
money．What can I do?" I walked towards him and asked him curiously who he wanted to give the doll to．
" It is the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much for this Christmas．She was so sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her．" I told him that maybe Santa Claus would bring it to her after all and not to worry．However, he replied sadly, " No, Santa Claus cannot take it to where she is now．I have to give the doll to my mother so that she can give it to her when she goes there．" His eyes looked so sad while saying this．" My sister has gone to be with God．Daddy says that Mommy will also join God very soon so I think that she can take the doll with her to give it to my sister．" My heart nearly stopped．
The boy looked up at me and said, " I told Daddy to tell Mommy not to go yet．I asked him to wait until I come back from the store．" Then, he showed me a very nice photo of him where he was laughing．He told me, " I also want Mommy to take this photo with her so that she will not forget me, I love my Mommy and I wish she didn't have to leave me but Daddy says that she has to go and join my little sister．" Then he looked at the doll again quietly with sad eyes．
I quickly reached my hand into my pocket, saying, "What if we checked again, just in case, to see if you have enough money?"

The Singapore Management University 〔SMU〕MBA programme was launched with the aim to develop the next generation of business leaders in Asia．We seek candidates with certain conditions and qualities．
The SMU MBA places a strong emphasis on the strength of candidates' professional achievements and demonstrated 〔显示〕leadership potential．Participants in current and past classes have an average of 5 -6 years of working experience．We are looking for candidates who can benefit from - and contribute to - our seminar style of teaching and who can successfully lead

Live in the city and don't have enough time to socialize? You're not alone．There's a conversation I find my self having with Londoners ever more frequently．It's the one that goes along the lines of．．．" After work I just can't be bothered to get back on the tube to go and socialize," or " I have to travel so far to see my friends．"
It seems this might not be caused by people becoming older or lazier than they used to be, or the times we live in become harder or less friendly, but instead simply a result of living in a certain type of big cities．
Professor Steve Farber and his assistant Tom have been looking into the potential urban
which citizens have for social interaction 〔互动〕, and whether planners could maximize 〔最大化〕this for the benefit of individuals and society．"My research has shown that as people's travels become longer and they have less free time, social activities are the first thing to drop out of their daily schedule, " says Farber．And when prices of land and buildings rise, and people are forced out into a city's edges, the time they have available for face-to-face inter-action can decrease, leaving them not only financially impoverished, but also socially impoverished．But travels are not the only factor to blame, Farber found the very size of the city itself should be responsible for the lack of opportunities for socialization．"We found cities growing bigger has 20 times the negative influence of longer travels," says Farber．" For planners and policy makers concerned about making our cities more lively, it is clear that strengthening development has the most positive effect on social interaction．These data suggest that ideas like changing car parks into apartments, or reducing the size of roads to cafes in communities that occupied parts of pavements can have social benefits that are more valuable than the cost of increased traffic , " he says．
47．The author refers to the words from Londoners in Paragraph 1 to ________．A．draw the topic to be discussed
B．show his relationship with Londoners
C．inform how busy people are
D．stress the problem existing
48．Which word is closest to the underlined word in Paragraph 3?
A．Illegal．B．Lonely．
C．Guilty．D．Poor．
49．Which of the following statements does Steve Farber support?
A．Urban enlarging in the UK．B．Urban management improving．
C．People tend to stay alone．D．Car parks and cafes should be canceled 50．Which can be the best title for the passage?
A．Plans for Happier Citizens and Successful Cities
B．Findings of A Research from the United Kindom
C．Reasons and Solutions of Less Socializing
D．Advantages and Disadvantages of Urbanization
第二节〔一共5小题：每一小题2分，满分是10分〕
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

选项里面有两项为多余选项。

Listening is an art．There are several things to bear in mind in order to become a good listener．
Never interrupt
It is considered rude and ill-mannered to interrupt while the other person is still speaking．51 Your patience and the good manners will be appreciated．
Really listen to what is said．rather than just hear it
There is a great difference between hearing and listening．In hearing, the information goes in one ear and often comes out of the other．In listening, we allow the words to sink in deeper．In our mind we try to picture what the other person is telling us．52
Do not judge
53 Acceptance and tolerance of other's opinion are not only good qualities, but also help
the other person feel comfortable and relaxed and give him the chance to speak his mind freely, without being afraid of what you will think of him．
54
Besides receiving the information, story or opinion, listening is also all about trying to understand what the other person is trying to communicate emotionally．Perhaps he or she wants to let go of some emotion or needs your support or encouragement．The true listener will understand what is needed．
Silence speaks louder than words
This is the secret of secrets to listening．55 Although sometimes words are necessary, often by remaining silent we create the best circumstances for the other speaker to say what he wants to say．Our silence helps the other person by giving him the peace and confidence to tell his story in the most complete way．
A．As a good listener, you can tell the difference between listening to and hearing
B．The best listeners are those who listen in silence
C．Keep an open mind towards what is being said and keep persona] judgments to yourself D．Speech is louder than silence
E．Let him finish what he has to say and then make your remark
F．Listening therefore needs concentration
G．Try to understand on a deeper level
