But the shortage is most severe in developing countries. Many of their nurses move to the more developed nations for better pay, better working conditions and better chances for career development. For example, nearly 2,000 nurses left the Caribbean between xx and xx. The Caribbean nations currently have about 1 nurse for every 1,000 people. The ratio(比例) of nurses to population is about 10 times higher in the United States and countries in the European Union(EU). Now, more than 21,000 nurses who trained in the Caribbean are working in the United States, Canada and Britain. Gaetan Lafortune is an official of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development(O. E. C. D) in Paris. He says the nurses shortage also affects industrialized countries. He says, “There is concern in most O. E. C. D. countries that the number of nurses is too small to meet the demand. And what is more worrying is that their concern is sort of growing. ” Mr Lafortune says a large number of nurses are expected to retire within the next 10 years. At the same time, the health care needs of aging populations are expected to grow, intensifying the shortage of nurses. Gaetan Lafortune said, “In the U. S. , for instance, some researchers have found that there may be a shortage of close to a million nurses by 2020. ” The United States is 1 of the 21 countries in the O. C. E. D. Gaetan Lafortune says in the recent years many of the countries increased their efforts to hire foreign nurses. As a result of that, O. E. C. D. countries were mainly exporting their shortage problem to countries that may have an even greater need for these nurses. 56What will be the main causes of the global nurses shortage in the next 10 years?A. The demand for nurses will decrease. B. Many nurses will be too old to work. C. Many rich countries will hire more foreign nurses. D. Nurses are often looked down upon. E. Aging populations will increase rapidlyA. a and bB. b and cC. b and eD. c and d57The underlined word “intensify” in para. 3 means “_”.

The health care industry needs more nurses. BBooks which give instructions on how to do things are very popular in the United States today. Thousands of these “How to” books are available; in fact, there are about four thousand books with titles that begin with the words “How to”. One book may tell you how to earn more money, another may tell you how to save or spend it, and another may explain how to give your money away. Many “How to” books give advice on careers (职业). They tell you how to choose a career and how to succeed at it. If you fail, however, you can buy a book called “How to Turn Failure into Success”. If you would like to bee very rich, you can buy the book “How to Make a Million”. If you never make any money at all, you may need a book called “How to Live on Nothing?”. One of the most popular types of books is one that helps you with personal problems. If you want to have a better love of life, you can read “How to Succeed at Love Every Minute of Your Life. ?”. If you are tired of books on happiness, you may prefer a book called “How to Make Yourself miserable?”. Many of these books help people use their time better. Some people want books which will give them useful information about sports, hobbies, and travel. Other people use their free time to make repairs and improvements on their homes. They prefer books which give step by step instruction on how to repair things like plumbing (卫生管道工程) and electrical wiring, or on how to redecorate (重新装饰) or enlarge a house.

They dim immediately when its sunny and brighten when a passing cloud blocks the sun. A wall of windows at a University of Pennsylvania engineering building has built-in blinds (百叶窗) controlled by a puter program that follows the suns path. Buildings are getting smarter and the next generation of building materials is expected to do even more. Windows could catch the suns energy to heat water. Sensors that measure the carbon dioxide breathed out by people in a room could determine whether the air conditioning needs to be turned up. Many new materials and technology have been designed in the last 15 years. They are now being used in a wave of buildings designed to save as much energy as possible. They include old ideas, like “green roofs”, where a belt of plants on a roof helps the building keep heat in winter and stay cool in summer, and new ideas, like special coating for windows that lets light in, but keeps heat out. As technologies such as sensors bee cheaper, their uses spread. The elevators at Seven World Trade Center, which is under construction in New York, use a system that groups people traveling to nearby floors into the same elevator, thus saving elevator stops. People who work in the building will enter it by swiping (刷) ID cards that will tell the elevators their floor, readouts will then tell them which elevator to use. The building also has windows with a coating that blocks heat while letting in light. More new building materials and technology are in development. A Philadelphia building firm is now working on “smart wrap” that uses tiny solar collectors to catch the suns energy and transmitters (传输器) as wide as a human hair to move it. They are expected to change the face of the construction industry in the next ten years or so. 67. _ will be developed and used in the construction industry. A. “Green roofs” that cool or heat buildingsB. “Smart wrap” that catches the suns energyC. Sunlight-measuring sensors that control lightsD. Window coating that lets light in, but keeps heat out68. The elevators at Seven World Trade Center are special because they can _. A. send people to floors with fewer stops B. teach people how to use their ID cards C. make people stay very cool in summer D. help people go traveling in the building69. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refe
