The aging of the population will affect American society (社会) in many ways education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the growing of America has made us a very different society one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages.A persons age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position (职位、地位), marriage or health. Theres no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isnt as strong as it used to be. It doesnt surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.Many people say, I am much younger than my motheror my fatherwas at my age. No one says Act your age any more. Weve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.（1） It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America _.A . has made people feel youngerB . has changed peoples social positionC . has changed peoples understanding of ageD . has slowed down the countrys social development（2） The underlined word one in the first paragraph refers to_.A . a societyB . AmericaC . a placeD . population（3） Act your age in the last paragraph means people should _.A . be active when they are oldB . do the right thing at the right ageC . show respect for their parents young or the oldD . take more physical exercise suitable to their age（4） If a 20-year-old man becomes general manager of a big company, the writer of the text would most probably consider it _.A . normalB . wonderfulC . unbelievableD . unreasonable四、 任务型阅读 (共1题；共4分)35. （4分） (2017八上巴南月考) 阅读短文，回答问题Im Sam.
