Safe places to learn, teachers and supplies are all lacking， and almost two million young Syrian students have dropped out of school.UNICEF says about 40 percent of students in grades one to nine across the nation no longer attend for more classes。 UNICEF spokeswoman Marixie Mercado says about half those are now refugees in Lebanon， Jordan, Iraq and Turkey。 Thirty months into the conflict, children are becoming increasingly afraid, angry and frustrated. The risk of a lost generation becomes more acute with each day that they are out of school.” In the northern city of Aleppo, for example, only 6 percent of children of schoolage are in classrooms， but the school year there and in other locations begins as planned on September 15.Talk of military strike by the United States has caused uncertainty about starting classes， but schools opened after a strike appeared less likely. Still many children who once walked to school are now taken there by their parents， and other families have simply left the country. Lebanon now is trying to help about 550，000 school-age Syrian refugee children. UNICEF says the Lebanese public education system can take care of 300,000 Lebanese children. UNICEF is establishing schools for refugee children in buses. In Jordan， UNICEF says about two-thirds of 150，000 Syrian school-age children are not in school。 One main refugee camp has 30,000 Syrian children, fewer than half are in school. In Iraq, UNICEF says nine out of 10 Syrian refugee children are out of school.Inside Syria， Miss Mercado says the educational system has been torn apart。 But UNICEF and Syrian government say about 3,000 schools have been damaged or destroyed. In addition, more than 900 schools that are still standing are being used as shelter for displaced families。”The fact that there are still children going to school in this context is quite incredible. Miss Mercado says the agency is operating programs for children to learn at home。 The UNICEF spokeswoman praises what she believes is the huge importance that Syrian parents place on education。 UNICEF has asked for 161 million from international donors for education。 But the agency says it has received only 51 million.51. How many Syrian school age children are in Lebanon， Jordan， Iraq and Turkey?A。 About two million B。 About one million C. about 550，000 D。 about 150，00052. Miss Mercado says “The risk of a lost generation becomes more acute with each day” because she thinks _. A。 its becoming more and more serious for Syria to lose a generation well educated B。 the generation out of school may destroy the country。 C。 the number of the children being out of school is becoming more and more D。 the damage to the children is more and more serious because they cant go to school53. Which of the following statements is true about Syria schools ? A. Its likely for schools to open after a strike by the United States. B。 All other schools can still begin classes except the 3000 damaged or destroyed。 C。 Some schools ask for parents to send their children to school。 D. Some schools being used as shelter for displaced families.54。 The United Nations Children Fund is doing the following thing for Syrian children except that _ . A. its appealing people all over the world to donate to help provide education money for the children. B. it is building some schools in Syria for the children. C. it is operating programs for children to learn at home D。 it praises that Syrian parents place huge importance on educationBBEIJING China has the worlds largest population of citizens over age 65 and in the coming decades their numbers are expected to quickly grow。 Already, officials are struggling to cope with the rising numbers of elderly at a time when there is a shortage of nursing home beds and certified caregivers。 Feng Jie is a trained nurse who decided a year and half ago to leave her job at a staterun hospital and work with a private nursing company. She says that unlike her job at the hospital， she now gets to spend more quality time with patients and as an added bonus her pay is better. Still, few have followed in her footsteps。 ”It was a risk to come to work here。 All of my classmates still work in hospitals. I thought that Id give it a try because this industry, this type of job is still an emerging field,” she said. Chinas population is aging at one of the fastest rates in the world。 By the middle of the century， more than 450 million people will be over 60 years of age. China lacks both the facilities and the staff to adequately care for the elderly, says Du Peng, director of the Institute of Gerontology（老年学） at Renmin University the only program of its kind in China. “We have four million beds available， one caretaker for every three elderly。 We should have more than a million caretakers， if in the future we will have 30 million elderly then we need 10 million caretakers， she explained。 But at the moment in China every year only 6，000 gerontology professionals are certified.”文档为个人收集整理，来源于网络 Right now most of Chinas nursing homes are state owned, but through incentives（激励） to private enterprises, caregivers and stipends（生活津贴) for the elderly, the government is looking to shake up the market。 Li Xinyue says such incentives helped her quickly find a job at a private nursing home after graduating. “When I was still in school I thought about where I would work afterwards, and at the time the government was issuing some policies to assist private institutionsthere were many privately run institutions available， so there were more to choose from，” Li Xinyue stated。 In addition to cutting red tape to allow more foreign and private investment in elderly care， the government is testing ways to encourage caregivers to seek more training and keep certified nurses in the field。 “It is a bit like the reform of China s economic system thirty years ago, when it was mostly state owned enterprises and there was a break with that and a promotion of economic development。 Now we are seeing a similar thing with the break down of the bottleneck，” said Peng.As more elderly Chinese turn to nursing homes for care, authorities hope investors see profit in the countrys demographic challenges, and add to the 400，000 nursing homes that now are mostly state run. 55。 Whats the main idea of the passage？ A. China has the worlds largest population of citizens over age 65. B. In the coming decades the number of citizens over age 65 is expected to quickly grow。 C。 Officials are struggling to cope with the rising numbers of elderly in China. D. There is a shortage of nursing home beds and certified caregivers in China。56. Why did FengJie leave her job at a state-run hospital and work with a private nursing company？ A。 Because she was asked to work there by the institution。 B. Because she was not satisfied with the hospital she was working in. C. Because she wanted to get a better pay。 D. Because it is a new industry and she wanted to have a try。57。 From the fifth paragraph， we can conclude that _ . A. there is only one Institute of Gerontology in China B. we have got enough beds available in China。 C。 one caretaker for every
