28、   The three phases of life are increasingly a thing of the past.Where once working lives fitted neatly into the model of education,employment and then retirement,the simplicity of that division is being challenged by changing standards of the workforce.

Increasing numbers of workers,nearing their long-imagined transition(过渡)into retirement,seem to be actively putting off the moment at which they down tools.Newly released figures from the Office for National Statistics(ONS)have shown that there are over a million more over 50s in part-time work than a decade ago.And with nine out of 10 employers reporting difficulties hiring workers,there’s likely to be a growing market for their talents as bosses extend their searches to older people,including those who are willing to take on part-time responsibilities.

The ending of the three phases of working life isn’t simply down to people living longer or financial necessity-though those are certainly important factors-but also to an increasing desire to maintain a purposeful life. One survey of British retirees over 50 found that 85 per cent of them felt they’d retired too young—stopping working had left a void that they regretted afterwards.

The 2015 film The Intern conveyed this human need to have value.In it,Robert De Niro plays a 70-year-old widower who finds himself a fish out of water when he joins a trendy internet start-up.In the end,not only does he find the sense of belonging that he desires but his colleagues come to rely on his experience and different perspective.It’s a plot we can increasingly expect to happen in real-life offices over the decades to come as people live ever longer.

Already,we are seeing people in their 50s and 60s looking ahead to a retirement lasting 30 years,choosing instead to build second careers that they can maintain into their 70s or beyond. Freed from the financial burden of young children,they can prioritize flexibility,shorter working hours or more rewarding jobs in areas such as charity work or teaching.Many do it for no money at all,volunteering behind the till in charity shops or showing people round National Trust properties.

However,it’s the next generation where the effect of living longer will really be felt,and the financial necessity will start to bite.In the West,more than half of the children born in 2016 have a life expectancy of more than 100 years.In their book,The 100-Year Life,London Business School professors Lynda Gratton and Andrew Scott suggest that acquiring sufficient funds to see oneself through a 40-or 50-year retirement will likely be beyond all but the highest earners.

Then there’s the oft-repeated claim that young people today are the first generation to be poorer than their parents.Certainly property prices are changing the way they plan for the future. In the mid-Nineties,the average home cost less than three times the average wage;last year, ONS stats placed that ratio at eight times wages.

The overall effect of these trends is that young people recognize that they will likely have to postpone dreams of retirement and instead strap on(绑住)more debt spread over longer spans.It’s why 44 per cent of under 30s say they expect to be working well into their 70s and why data this year from the Bank of England show that 16 per cent of UK mortgages(按揭贷款)now have terms of 35 years or more-a figure that has tripled in the past decade.

All of these factors look set to contribute to a workforce that has a significantly wider range of ages in the future.In an ra of work when we’ve all learned to be more inclusive,only eight per cent of firms with a diversity programme have adapted it to go beyond gender,race and sexuality and into age.Incorporating older employees into the workforce is set to be the next big thing at the office.

If Robert De Niro has anything to teach us,it’s that this can be an enormous force permanently for both employees and businesses.

【1】The following may account for the ending of the three phases of working life EXCEPT_____.

A.a longer life

B.financial needs

C.delayed retirement policy

D.a meaningful life

【2】What do the underlined words”is down to”in Paragraph 3 mean?

D.They will fail to pay off their mortgage.

【4】The author introduces the details of the film The Intern in order to_____.

A.tell us Robert De Niro is a helpful retiree

B.indicate that retirees can also benefit society

C.share Robert De Niro’s second career with us

D.illustrate that retirees desire to live meaningfully

【5】What does the passage mainly talk about?

A.The new standards of the workplace.

B.Age being no hurdle in the modern world of work.

C.Financial issues facing both old people and young people.

D.Different attitudes to retirement between the young and old.

29、   Green living has become more important than ever and as time goes by,it will only become a more important issue.While it used to roe a matter of making an extra effort to save energy and reduce waste in our homes,this has extended to the professional side of things since.Public buildings,such as schools,hospitals and offices,are under an increasing amount of pressure to make the change and go green,even if it's just a step-by-step process that takes a few years to complete.

There are plenty of reasons for offices to go green and these reasons go beyond the concept that it should be done just for the sake of the environment.While the environment is unbelievable important and vital to our survival and quality of life,sustainable（可持续的）office design can also have positive impacts upon employees and people using the building.

For example,a report carried out last September revealed that the way an office is designed can significantly impact on the health of the staff there.It was also found to have an effect on productivity and could be a contributory（起作用的）factor to the amount of sick leave and staff turnaround within the business.It's fascinating to think that people can be so sensitive to their environments but it also makes a lot of sense.Even the choice of colour in your office can negatively or positively affect the people working there.

Based on this study,it is clear that companies should be making more efforts to improve on the office design while making sure the environment is sustainable and green.There are various little changes that can be made to lead to something bigger,from making sure the lights are turned off at night to recycling the paper your company gets through on a weekly basis.Once these changes are in place,you can start looking at the bigger picture and begin complete changes to design and construction,like having wood fibre insulation（绝缘）fitted.

Along with other sustainable features,insulation can be beneficial in various ways.Not only will an insulated office space be environmentally sound by helping you to keep warm in the winter and cool in the summer,reducing the reliance on the thermostat（恒温器）and central heating and saving money,but it can also be an effective form of sound absorption.The study revealed that noise is a contributory factor to productivity problems,and if you work in a particularly busy area,then noise can become a real issue.The aim is to create an environment that is comfortable and calm enough for people to concentrate and work productively.Soundproof walls are an effective and environmentally friendly solution.

【1】What is the author's argument in the passage?

A.Green living can help to save energy.

B.Public building should go green.

C.Green living still has a long way to go.

D.It is important to lead a green life.

【2】The author mentioned the report carried out last year for the purpose of .

A.showing us how to design an office

B.telling us the side effects of green living

C.improving the productivity of office workers.

D.proving the benefits of green office design

【3】According to the author,what is necessary for companies to do?

A.Allow enough sick leave to their employees.

B.Paint all the walls of their offices green.

C.Make some improvements to their office design.

D.Make their staff more productive than before.

【4】The last paragraph mainly tells us about .

A.the benefits of insulation to offices

B.how to keep an office's temperature constant

C.the advantages of living a green life in the city

D.how to make staff work comfortably and effectively
