The African Development Bank says. "Aging is highly linked with long-term physical and mental disability and a number of long-term chronic (慢性的) conditions."
"Africa is not well prepared to care for its aging population right now. And it needs to prepare for this fact." said Professor Mthuli Ncube. the African Development Bank"s chief economist. African nations spend far less on healthcare than developed nations do___ about $26per person per year. Not so many countries have well developed medical aid plans for the elderly, whether they are privately provided plans or indeed government plans. If you look at the pension plans, you will find the pension industries are not well developed in some of the countries.

and pensions because they were busy with economic reforms.

. The African Development Bank recommends governments help carry out health insurance and pension plans. Ncube said African governments didn"t have to handle the health insurance burden alone. "It is not only a must but also an opportunity for private companies to add their bit in this regard", he said.

American Dreams in China is a film purely for Chinese audiences, but how it plays there remains to be seen. It sends the right messages, but whether that’s enough to make it a hit is everyone’s guess. Mainland audiences aren’t quite that easy to “speak” to.
The film began during the period of economic reforms in China in the 1980s. The bookish farm boy Cheng Dongqing (Huang Xiaoming), the ambitious and confident boy Meng Xiaojun (Deng Chao) and the poetic Wang Yang(Tong Dawei), were three friends at university in Beijing and preparing for American visa interviews. Wang was the first to be granted the visa but he gave it up for his western girlfriend, and Cheng was repeatedly denied. Only Meng actually got a study visa. As he was leaving, he told his friends that he wouldn’t come back.
Several years later, Cheng and Wang built a successful school, New Dream, from the ashes of Cheng’s misfortune(his girlfriend got a visa too, and Cheng lost his university teaching job) and Wang’s ability to connect with students often through Hollywood movies. In America, Meng suffered a lot. Disappointed, he went home and joined his friends at New Dream. Later, the three friends’ relationship became worsened, but finally was improved under the weight of their common goals.
小题1:Which of the following films made Peter Chan a most influential director in Hong Kong?
A.American Dreams in China |
B.Comrades: Almost a Love Story |
C.New Dream |
D.He’s a Woman, She’s a Man |
A.prepared | B.given | C.involved | D.permitted |
A.None | B.One. | C.Three. | D.Two |
A.The connection with Hollywood movies. |
B.The weight of their common goals. |
C.Cheng’s misfortune and Wang’s ability. |
D.Meng’s disappointment and sufferings. |
What are the signs by which we may recognize a great book? The four I will mention may not be all there are, but they are the ones I’ve found most useful in explaining my choices over the years.
Great books are probably the most widely read. They are not best sellers for a year or two. They are enduring best sellers. GONE WITH THE WIND has had relatively few readers compared to the plays of Shakespeare or DONQUIXOTE. It would be reasonable to estimate that Homer Iliad has been read by at least 25,000,000 people in the last 3000 years.
Great books are popular, not pedantic(卖弄学问的). They are not written by specialists about specialties for specialists. Whether they are philosophy or science, or history or poetry, they treat of human, not academic problems. They are written for men, not professors. To read a textbook for advanced students, you have to read an elementary textbook first. But the great books can be considered elementary in the sense that they treat the elements of any subject matter. They are not related to one another as a series of textbooks, graded in difficulty or in the technicality of the problems with which they deal.
Great books are always contemporary, the most readable and instructive.
Great books deal with the persistently unsolved problems of human life. There are genuine mysteries in the world that mark the limits of human knowing and thinking. Great minds acknowledge mysteries honestly. Wisdom is fortified (加强), not destroyed, by understanding its limitations.
小题1:Which is NOT the standard in the following when evaluating a great book?
A.Although not a best seller for a year or two, it must be the most widely read. |
B.A great book can be read without any effort. |
C.Great books are never out of date. |
D.Great books will not disappoint you if you try to read them well. |
A.a best seller |
B.disgusted by readers who like Shakespeare |
C.read more often than Don Quixote |
D.a great book |
A.different periods have different lists of best books because there are many books for people to choose from |
B.if you don’t read an elementary textbook, you may have difficulty in understanding an advanced one |
C.Homer Iliad must be a best seller when it came out |
D.great books often deal with unsolved problems of human life for the writers have confidence in settling them |
A.Great Books in Your Life | B.Great Books in Your Specialty |
C.How to Find a Great Book? | D.What Is a Great Book? |
