(B)
An aging society brings many problems. First, there is a growing need for health care. The elderly often get sick and need more medical help. Also, they may need someone to take care of them at home.
To solve these problems, we can do several things. The government should build more hospitals and care centres for the elderly. These places can provide them with good medical care and help. At the same time, there will be a greater need for nurses or caregivers. They can look after the elderly either at home or in care centres.
Family members also play an important role. They should spend more time with the elderly, talk to them and make them feel loved. Besides, the community can organize some activities for the elderly. For example, there can be reading clubs or dancing classes. They help the elderly stay active and happy.
In short, we all need to work together to face the challenges of an aging society and make life better for the elderly.

五 任务型阅读。（13分）
Yesterday, my parents took my brother and me to the city centre for dinner. There were a lot of people, so the place was crowded. We had to wait for ten minutes before we could find an empty table. My parents ordered beef noodles while my brother and I ordered chicken rice. While we were eating, I noticed an old man walking from table to table, selling newspapers.
When the old man came to our table, my mother bought five copies of newspapers even though she had a new copy of newspaper in her handbag. “Why did you buy more newspapers?” I asked my mother. She said that we should help the poor and the elderly whenever we could. We should also treat the elderly with respect. My mother also said that the man was old, but he still kept on working and making money, so we should help him.

【解析】
（一）判断正误：
1. 原文提到“We had to wait for ten minutes before we could find an empty table”，题干说等了5分钟，与原文不符，故为F。
2. 原文提到“My parents ordered beef noodles while my brother and I ordered chicken rice”，题干说哥哥点鸡肉面、父母点牛肉饭，与原文不符，故为F。
3. 原文提到“my mother bought five copies of newspapers even though she had a new copy of newspaper in her handbag”，可知妈妈最终有6份报纸，题干说5份，与原文不符，故为F。
4. 妈妈买报纸帮助老人，说明她乐于助人，题干表述正确，故为T。
5. 原文明确提到“We should also treat the elderly with respect”，题干表述正确，故为T。
（二）补全句子：
