D
Very old people do raise moral problems for almost everyone who comes in contact with them. Their values—this can't be repeated too often—are not necessarily our values. Physical comfort, cleanness and order are not necessarily the most important things. The social services from time to time find themselves faced with a flat with decaying(腐烂) food covered by small worms, and an old person lying alone in bed, taking no notice of the worms. But is it interfering (妨碍) with personal freedom to insist that they go to live with some of their relatives so that they might be taken better care of? Some social workers, the ones who clear up the worms, think we are in danger of carrying this concept of personal freedom to the point where serious risks are being taken with the health and safety of the old.
   Indeed, the old can be easily hurt or harmed. The body is like a car, it needs more mechanical(机械的）maintenance (保养）as it gets older. You can carry this comparison right through to the provision(提供)of spare parts. But never forget that such operations are painful experiences, however good the results. And at what point should you stop treating the old body? Is it morally right to try to push off death by pursuing the development of drugs to excite the forgetful old mind and to activate the old body, knowing that it is designed to die? You cannot ask doctors or scientists to decide, because so long as they can see the technical opportunities, they will feel bound to give them a try, on the principle that while there's life, there's hope.
  When you talk to the old people, however, you are forced to the conclusion that whether age is happy or unpleasant depends less on money or on health than it does on your ability to have fun.
78. It is implied in Paragraph 1 that______.
   A. very old people are able to keep their rooms very clean  
   B. social services have nothing to do with very old people
   C. very old people enjoy living with their relatives
   D. very old people would like to live alone so that they can have more personal freedom
79. Some social workers think that______.
   A. personal freedom is more important than health and safety
   B. health and safety are more important than personal freedom
   C. old people should keep their rooms clean
   D. one should not take the risk of dealing with old people
80. The author thinks that______.
   A. medical decisions for old people should be left to the doctors
   B. old people can enjoy a happy life only if they are very rich
   C. it is always morally right to treat old people and push off death  
   D. the opinion that we should try every means possible to save old people is doubtful

第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
My daughter Chloe is starting out in college in the fall. With her newfound independence will come the newfound responsibilities of dealing with money.
81   Now I have a few lessons I’d like to share with Chloe, and with anyone else starting out in college.
82  OK, this is almost the only lesson you need. The biggest reason you get into money problems is that you spend money you don’t really have. Then you end up in the hole, and it’s hard to get out of the hole. You work too many hours to keep up with your spending. And you end up with a life that’s about nothing but trying to pay for all the spending on something you don’t really need. 83 
Make a very simple budget (预算). It’s a terrible thing for people who’ve never done a budget, but it’s not hard.   84  If the bills add up to more than the income, remove some bills.
Pay bills right away. If you have the money, pay the bill as soon as it comes in. You can usually do this online, but if not, it’s just a matter of writing a check, putting it in an envelope, and writing out an address — two minutes.  85  If you let the bill paying get pushed back, it becomes a terrible thing.
That’s all you need to know. If you save when you’re in college, avoid debt, and pay bills on time, you’re golden.
A. Spend less than you earn.
B. List your income, then list your bills.
C. So spend less, work less, worry less, be happier.
D. Find ways to get things done you need to get done.
E. If you spend less than you earn, you won’t be in debt.
F. Like many young people, she hates thinking about money.
G. Do this two-minute action at once, so you don’t have to worry about it later.
