Bosses now prefer to be paid in share options. The average chief executive of one of America's top 200 firms would take home just over $750,000 in gold. In fact, in 1998 he made a pre-tax profit of $8.3 m by exercising executive share options, which give the right to buy a fixed number of his company's shares at a fixed price in what is now a rising market. At the end of last year, he also had total unrealized profits on stock options of nearly $50m.
But put to one side questions of justice and inequality. Force down the thought that the chief executive's enormous share options may demoralize the deputy chief executive and make the company harder to manage. Ignore the bleating bondholder, who sees his risk rise as companies borrow to buy back shares to give to executives. The fundamental question is whether share-option schemes are doing what they were designed to do: aligning the interests of managers with those of owners, motivating bosses to do their level best by shareholders.

§ [C] As demand for food rises faster than supplies are growing, the resulting food-price inflation puts severe stress on the governments of many countries. Unable to buy grain or grow their own, hungry people take to the streets. Indeed, even before the steep climb in grain prices in 2008, the number of failing states was expanding. If the food situation continues to worsen, entire nations will break down at an ever increasing rate. In the 20th century the main threat to international security was superpower conflict; today it is failing states.
A．- Rather than superpower conflict, countries unable to cope with food shortages now constitute the main threat to world security．
B．- To lower domestic food prices, some countries limited or stopped their grain exports． C
D．

Demand for Elderly Care Services in China Rising RapidlyThe number of elderly people aged above 60 increased. Demand for elderly care services in China will continue to rise due to the increasing aging population. The number of elderly people aged above 60 was over 200 million in 2012, and will be 300 million in 2025 and 400 million in 2034, according to experts.
It will be a tough challenge for China to deal with, due to the increasing rates of urbanization and a decreasing birth rate. The Chinese people will be facing a big challenge if we do not have enough money when we get older.
The United Nations defines an aging society as one that has 10 percent of its population at or above the age of 60.
When most developed countries were classed as an aging society, their gross domestic product (GDP) per capita stood at between 5,000 to 10,000 U.S. dollars or above. However, China became an aging society in 2001, and its GDP per capita was only 1,000 U.S. dollars. It was 6,000 U.S. dollars in 2012. China’s economic foundation for an elderly society is fragile.
On Sept. 13.2013, the State Council issued a guideline to speed up the development of China’s elderly care services, hoping to complete a social care network for its elderly by 2025.
1.What does the word “decreasing” in Paragraph 2 mean？ ()
A.It means “falling”
B.It means “rising”

3.What was China’s GDP per capita in 2012？ ()
A.It was 1,000 U.S. dollars
B.It was 6,000 U.S. dollars
C.It was 10,000 U.S. dollars
4.Why is China’s economic foundation for an elderly society fragile？()
A.Because of its increasing aging population and its low GDP per capita
B.Because when China was classed as an aging society, our gross domestic product (GDP) per capita is high
C.Because of its decreasing aging population and its high GDP per capita
5.The passage implies that().
A.Chinese government can do nothing to deal with the challenge of the increasing aging population

C.The Chinese social care network is expected to be completed in the near future
