21、Fund Tianhong Zenglibao has become the first fund in China to hit 100 billion yuan (＄16.30 billion) of sales thanks to its cooperation with Yu’ebao, Alibaba’s wealth management product.
Alipay(支付宝), attached to the e-commerce giant Alibaba Group, announced in June it would offer its users the option to directly invest with the private Tianhong Fund using spare cash from Alipay accounts. The business is called Yu’ebao.
The past five months have seen this fund blossom, owing to the prosperous Interet e-commerce platform, and the Singles Day shopping spree on November 11 had helped Yu’ebao. In the process of a deal on Taobao, once the buyer pays for the order, his or her money is first accepted by Alipay, then after he or she receives the goods, a final confirmation is made and Alipay then gives the money to the seller. If a buyer forgets to confirm payment, the money is transferred into the seller’s account after 10 days by the system.
The Singles Day had a total volume of 35 billion yuan(＄5.75 billion) and thus a large amount of money passed through Alipay’s account. Analysts estimated that Alipay may have also bought the fund using the extra income, which powerfully enlarged the scale of Yu’ebao. Profit purchasing investors tend to choose safe financial management tools. The relatively stable yields of Yu’ebao is favored by most customers, the report said.
Chinese e-commerence giant Alibaba allows consumers to invest their spare cash in the money market funds through its Alipay online payment service. The product, called Yu’ebao, or “Leftovers Treasure,” has netted 130 billion yuan so far, making the fund’s management firm, Tianhong Fund, the country’s largest fund management company.
Meanwhile, due to the cooperation with Alipay, the management scale of Tianhong monetary fund has doubled from 55.653 billion yuan at the end of September to over 100 billion yuan. During the Singles Day, the frequency of payment of Alipay and Yu’ebao exceeded 188 million and 16.79 million with total transaction volume at 35 billion yuan and 6 billion yuan.
【1】 The fund has been successful so far mainly because ________.
A. it is the country’s largest fund management fund.
B. it was the first fund in China to cooperate with Yu’ebao.
C. consumers can directly invest the spare cash in it through online payment service.
D.The online shopping is prosperous and the Singles Day shopping makes great contribution.

A. allows sellers to invest their spare cash in the money market funds
B. offers the business called Yu’ebao
C. has doubled to 55.653 billion yuan at the end of September

24、As life expectancy increases nowadays, the average person lives well beyond the age of retirement. As a result, the elderly make up an ever-increasing percentage of society, which makes it more important than ever for a real effort to be made in improving the lives of senior citizens.
One way to deal with the situation would be to ensure that the elderly have enough money on which to live. Obviously, when a person stops working, they still require a source of income to cover their basic needs such as food, accommodation and heating. A clear solution to the problem is for the government to make sure that the state pension is adequate for these needs.
Steps should also be taken to overcome the health problems the elderly face. The government should also provide access to the best health care available, which may necessitate paying for residential homes where the elderly can have round-the-clock nursing, or, at the very least, providing medication free of charge to all people over a certain age.
The lives of old people could be improved if attempts were made to address the problem of social isolation. If we organised trips for the elderly to community centres, visits from social workers their problem of loneliness can be reduced a lot which marks the lives of so many old people living alone and far from their families.
One final suggestion, which would help enormously, is to change the attitude of the community towards its older members, who are all too often seen as a burden on society and dismissed as having little to do with modern life. We need to be taught from an early age to respect the views of old people, and appreciate their broader experience of life. This would help society as a whole, and encourage appreciation of the role that old people can still play today.
【1】What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?
A. All the elderly can enjoy free medication.
B. The nurses can take good care of the elderly.
C. The elderly are in face of health problems.
D. The health care available to the elderly is good.
【2】The underlined word “address” in Paragraph 4 probably means_________.
A. find out
B. deal with
C. put down
D. pick up
【3】 What factors affected the old people’s life?
a. the state pension
b. the basic needs
c. the attitude of the community
d. the experience of life
e. social isolation
f. medical care
A. a, b, c, d
B. b ,c ,d ,e
C. c ,d ,e, f
D. a, c, e, f
【4】 According to the last suggestion, the old people_________.
A. should be respected by all of us
B. have to gather more life experience
C. may be regarded as our heavy burden
D. must change their attitude to the community
