The state pension age is to rise to 67 by 2028.Ministers have warned that they have no idea when younger workers in their thirties will be able to retire.Mr Willetts，who is accompanying David Cameron in India，urged workers older than 60 to give further education serious consideration. “There is certainly a pressure for continuing to get retrained and upskilled，”he said.“Higher education has an economic benefit in that if you stay uptodate with knowledge and skills you will be more employable.”Mr Willetts said a university course had“wider”benefits，making people more likely to lead healthy lives.“Education is such a good thing that it is not reserved for only younger people，”he said.“There will be people of all ages who will want to study.There is great value in lifelong learning.”Under previous rules，students in England would get a loan to cover tuition fees only if they were younger than 54.Latest figures showed that only 1,940 undergraduates starting courses last year were older than 60，out of a total of 552,240 students in Britain.Some 6,455 were aged between 50 and 60，according to the Higher Education Statistics Agency.【解題導(dǎo)語】本文是一篇新聞報道。英國政府呼吁年逾花甲者回歸校園接受培訓(xùn)，以應(yīng)對老齡化問題。一、閱讀與積累1攻克疑難詞匯aging adj.變老的pension n養(yǎng)老金，退休金accompany v陪伴，陪同undergraduate n本科生2.攻克疑難句His comments followed a government report which found that the countrys future economic success would depend on the skills and contributions of older workers.結(jié)構(gòu)分析此句含有一個定語從句which found that the countrys future economic success would depend on the skills and contributions of older workers，修飾先行詞a government report，定語從句中含有一個that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句。嘗試翻譯他的此番評論是在政府公布一份報告之后發(fā)表的。政府報告指出，國家今后的經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展能否取得成功取決于老年工作者的技術(shù)與貢獻(xiàn)。二、理解與書面表達(dá)1理解文章主旨The passage mainly tells us that the_Government_calls_for _older_workers_to_retrain.2理解與書面表達(dá)文中畫線的句子結(jié)構(gòu)是寫作中常用到的，請你寫出此句的類型：_。答案狀語從句3精通句式：狀語從句(1)說明：在復(fù)合句中起狀語作用的從句叫狀語從句。狀語從句按其意義可分為時間、地點、原因、目的、結(jié)果、條件、比較、方式、讓步等種類。在英語寫作中，狀語從句的運用也是高考英語高分作文的必需條件，所以考生必須學(xué)會并熟練運用狀語從句。狀語從句修飾主句中的動詞、形容詞和副詞，由從屬連詞引導(dǎo)，可位于句首，也可位于主句后。狀語從句在句首時，往往用逗號把從句與主句隔開。(2)例句感悟Although/Though he was over sixty，(yet)he began to learn French.Wherever you go，you must obey the law.Difficulties are nothing if we are not afraid of them.They worked harder than usual so that they could finish the work ahead of time.I was walking along the street when suddenly someone patted me on the shoulder from behind.(3)用狀語從句翻譯下列句子。今天放學(xué)之前我們在課堂上就琥珀屋是否該歸還給俄國進(jìn)行了一次辯論會。_ 有些學(xué)生認(rèn)為它應(yīng)該立即歸還俄國。_因為普魯士國王把它送給了彼得大帝，因此它屬于俄國人。_作為琥珀屋的故鄉(xiāng)，德國有權(quán)利擁有它。_在我看來，俄國應(yīng)該是它的歸屬地，因為它是被當(dāng)作禮物給俄國的。_答案A debate about whether the Amber Room should be returned to Russia was held in our class before school was over today.Some students believe that it should be returned to Russia immediately.Because the King of Prussia gave it to Peter Great，it belongs to the Russian people.Being the home of the Amber Room，Germany has the right to keep it.As far as Im concerned，Russia is the very place it should go to because Russia got it as a gift from Prussia.(4)加入適當(dāng)?shù)倪B詞或句子將上面五句話改寫成一篇關(guān)于琥珀屋是否應(yīng)該歸還俄國的優(yōu)秀的小短文。_ 【參考范文】A debate about whether the Amber Room should be returned to Russia was held in our class before school was over today.Because the King of Prussia gave it to Peter Great，it belongs to the Russian people.So some students believe that it should be returned to Russia immediately.But the other students have the opposite view.They believe that being the home of the Amber Room，Germany has the right to keep it.As far as Im concerned，Russia is the very place it should go to because Russia got it as a gift from Prussia.
