　　The National Trust

　　The National Trust in Britain plays an increasingly important part in the preservation for public enjoyment of the best that is left unspoiled of the British countryside. Although the Trust has received practical and moral support from the Government, it is not a rich Government department.

　　It is a voluntary association of people who care for the unspoiled countryside and historic buildings of Britain. It is a charity which depends for its existence on voluntary support from members of the public. Its primary duty is to protect places of great natural beauty and places of historical interest.

　　The attention of the public was first drawn to the dangers threatening the great old houses and castles of Britain by the death of Lord Lothian, who left his great seventeenth-century house to the Trust together with the 4,500-acre park and estate surrounding it. This gift attracted wide publicity and started the Trust's "Country House Scheme". Under this scheme, with the help of the Government and the general public, the Trust has been able to save and make accessible to the public about one hundred and fifty of these old houses. Last year about one and three quarters, of a million people paid to visit these historic houses, usually at a very small charge.

　　In addition to country houses and open spaces the Trust now owns some examples of ancient wind and water mills, nature reserves, five hundred and forty farms and nearly two thousand five hundred cottages or small village houses, as well as some complete villages. In these, villages no one is allowed to build, develop or disturb the old village environment in any way and all the houses are maintained in their original sixteenth-century style. Over four hundred thousand acres of coastline, woodland, and hill country, are protected by the Trust and no development or disturbances of any kind are permitted. The public has free access to these areas and is only asked to respect the peace, beauty and wildlife.

　　So it is that over the past eighty years the Trust has become a big and important organization and an essential and respected part of national life, preserving all that is of great natural beauty and of historical significance not only for future generations of Britons but also for the millions of tourists who each year invade Britain in search of a great historic and cultural heritage.

　　The Sandwich Generation

　　Today people often look forward to their middle age as a time when they will be able to take things easier. After their children are grown, they expect to enjoy the life they have worked hard to create. However the reality is often very different. In middle age, many people discover that they have two ongoing responsibilities: one is to look after their aging parents, and the other is to help their young adult children deal with the pressures of life. Around the world, there are millions of people who are "sandwiched" in between the older and the younger generations. Sometimes there may be two or three generations living in the same household -- a situation that is common in many Asian countries and in some parts of Europe. In other cases, a couple may be taking care of parents and children, but they do not live with them.

　　There are two important reasons for the rise of the sandwich generation. First, people are living longer than they used to. In the early nineteenth century, the average life expectancy for adults in the United States, for example, was about 40, whereas today people live to an average age of 75. Therefore, children are taking care of their parents over a longer period of time. The second reason is that these days, young adults often live with their parents for a longer time than they did in the past. This is often for financial reasons. It's also more common for today's young adults to return home during or after college if they need financial

　　or emotional support.

　　People who take care of elderly parents often face difficult issues. They may have to cover expenses that their parents cannot. They may have to manage their parents, financial and legal affairs. They may have to prepare for their parents, future needs, such as special medical care or a move to a nursing home. This can be a traumatic experience for everyone.

　　Caring for adult children presents challenges as well, and caregivers have to resolve important questions: How can financial responsibilities be shared among members of the household? How can household chores be shared? What is the best way to ensure everyone's privacy? Successfully coping with these issues can avoid a lot of stress for the whole family.

　　The financial and emotional pressures on the sandwich generation can be overwhelming.

　　However, this time in life also has its rewards. It can be a time to rediscover the special qualities of one's parents or children. It can also provide a valuable opportunity to spend more time with them.

　　However, in order to survive this difficult period in their lives, the members of the sandwich generation must remember that they also need to pay attention to their own needs and look after the quality of their own lives. They can't be totally selfless.

　　41. According to the first paragraph, many people in middle age

　　A. can't enjoy their life as they have expected.

　　B. are able to take things easier when their children are grown.

　　C. can't enjoy their life because they haven't worked hard enough.

　　D. are facing great pressure from their work.

　　42. Which is true about the sandwich generation?

　　A. Their parents are unable to take care of themselves.

　　B. Their parents are often facing the pressures of life.

　　C. They all have to live with their parents and children.

　　D. They are torn between the responsibilities for their parents and children.

　　43. Why do some young adults choose to live with their parents these days?

　　A. They are too young to be independent from their parents.

　　B. They want to help their parents to take care of their aging grandparents.

　　C. They need support from their parents to deal with their financial problems.

　　D. They are more emotional than the young adults in the past.

　　44. The sandwich generation face the following challenges EXCEPT

　　A. sharing household chores.

　　B. determining who is the caregiver of the family.

　　C. ensuring everyone's privacy.

　　D. shouldering the financial responsibilities of the household.

　　45. To survive the difficult period in their lives, the sandwich generation need to_________.

　　A. be totally selfless.

　　B. rediscover the merits of their children.

　　C. value the time spent with their parents.

　　D. consider their own well-being.

　　答案与解析

　　31.B。细节题。题干：国家信托是一个__________。本题答案在第一段中的“It is a voluntary association…It is a charity…”，可知该机构是做慈善的，与non-profitable对应，同时是志愿的(voluntary)，很明显答案为B。

　　32.D。细节题。题干：国家信托致力于__________。答案仍在“It is a voluntary association of people who care for the unspoiled countryside and historic buildings ofBritain”中，大意是“这是一个志愿性质的协会，保护那些未被破坏的乡村和历史性的建筑”，care for与题干中的dedicate to对应，因此本题答案为D。

　　33.C。细节题。题干：从第二段中可以推理得知Lothion爵士__________。第二段中的“theTrust has been able to save and make accessible to the public about one hundred and fifty ofthese old houses”与C选项形成对应，这句话的大意是“信托拯救了大约150个老房子，同时让公众有可能参观它们”。Lothion捐献的是自己的房产，并非所有的钱;国家之屋的计划也不是他开启的，而是受到了Lothion的帮助;公众的注意力被Lothion吸引是因为他去世时捐献了很多的财产，因此在他有生之年未必就很有影响力。故本题答案为C。

　　34.A。细节题。题干：下列哪一个不能从原文中推理得知?用“16世纪”回到原文定位到倒数第二段“…all the houses are maintained in their original sixteenth-century style”可知，这里的16世纪对应的信息是“……所有的房子都保留原始的16世纪的风格”，可知A与原文不一致。因此正确答案为A。

　　35.C。词汇题。题干：第四段中的“invade”与__________意思最为相近?该词本意是“入侵”，但由该词定位到末段的最后一句“…but also for the millions of tourists who each year invade Britain in search ofa great historic and cultural heritage”，由语义走向可知invade与 millions oftourists相关，因此C选项最合适。

　　41.A。细节题。题干：根据文章的意思，很多中年人。根据第一段第二、三句可知，当孩子长大后，中年人期望能享受努力工作创造的生活，然而，现实却不是这样。由此可知，很多中年人不能如愿地享受生活。故本题选A(无法过上他们期望的生活)。

　　42.D。细节判断题。题干：关于三明治一代，下列哪个描述是正确的?根据第一段第四句可知，很多中年人发现他们正肩负着两种责任：一个是照顾日益年长的父母，另一个是帮助年轻的孩子处理生活的压力。第一段第五句接着说，全世界有数百万的中年人像三明治一样夹在上一代和下一代中间。因此选项D(他们常常在赡养老人和抚养孩子的责任中左右为难)。

　　43.C。细节题。题干：为什么现在很多年轻人选择和父母住在一起?根据第二段最后三句可知，如今一些年轻人之所以会更久地跟父母住在一起，是因为他们需要父母的'经济或情感支持。故本题答案为C(他们需要父母的支持来应对财务问题)。

　　44.B。细节判断题。题干：三明治一代面临着下列挑战，除了__________。根据第四段中的“caregivers have to resolve important questions：How can financial responsibilities be shared among members of the household?How can household chores be shared?What is the best way to ensure everyone’s privacy?”可知，只有B不是三明治一代要考虑的问题，所以该题答案为B(决定谁来赡养家庭)。

　　45.D。推断题。题干：想度过人生中这一艰难时段，三明治一代需要__________。最后一段最后两句中的“…they also need to pay attention to their own needs and look after the quality of thie own lives.They can’t be totally selfless.”表明，三明治一代也需要考虑自己的需求和自身的生活质量，不能完全忘我。由此可知，要度过这个人生的艰难时段，三明治一代需要考虑自身的幸福，所以该题答案为D(考虑自身的幸福)。
