科目：高中英語 來源： 題型：閱讀理解
閱讀下列應(yīng)用文及相關(guān)信息，并按照要求匹配信息。請在答題卡上將對應(yīng)題號的相應(yīng)選項字母涂黑。
首先，請閱讀以下六種社會群體的簡介：
Future Foundation咨詢公司對英國社會的生活方式進行了研究，發(fā)現(xiàn)了六種群體：
A. Transient 20s
The transient 20s are an emerging group who refuse to settle down. They regularly change jobs, and move from one area to another for adventure and travel. Driven by changes and new challenges, they reject job and home security. Areas like Manchester and Bright will see a flood of these 20-somethings over the next decade.
B. Urban Farmer
The urban farmer is a city-dweller but tries to re-create country life by growing his own organic vegetables in a garden. He may live in the busy suburbs and drive a sporty vehicle, but nothing better than a long walk.
C. Young Fogy
The young fogies are a generation of youthful Londoners who behave as if they were middle-aged. They are in their 20s, but they give up night clubs for radio programs, and trendy bars for traditional bars. They are also characterized by a love of real ale, good housekeeping and comfort-over-style clothes.
D. Brickies' Wags
These wags' (wives and girlfriends) spending power is growing. The tradesman's wife now uses his cash for designer clothes, Vogue and champagne, gold jewelry and expensive cars. This woman is most likely to be found within easy reach of central London, where her husband makes a fortune.
E. Virtual Villagers
This group of people has nothing to do with the popular online game Virtual Villagers. They are the people who are set to take advantage of major technological advances. Offices could be emptying out over the next 10 years as the number of Brits escaping to rural areas will triple because of the World Wide Web. Areas where countryside and motorways are in good supply will be key homes for these villagers.
F. The Unstoppable
The unstoppable are those people over 65 who still enjoy eating out, traveling, taking evening classes and generally having a good time.
閱讀下面五個人的情況介紹，請與相應(yīng)的社會群體匹配：
56. D. Gruber used to work with a foreign trade firm in central London for many years. He felt so tired physically and mentally that he was about to give his job up. Luckily, with the help of his wife, a computer programmer, he can continue his job at home by using the Internet. He enjoys the advantages technology has on his life.
57. Irene Ponbs has settled down in London after he graduated from college in 2003. Unlike his colleagues who spend most nights in a noisy place such as a club and a bar, he prefers to live a quiet life, listening to radio programs and doing housework.
58. J. Barnes had a hard time adapting himself to the retired life. Later, he found great happiness visiting different places before he was addicted to planting vegetables in his gardens. Now he is much healthier by eating such vegetables and taking a walk in the morning.
59. M. Neilson recently often quarrels with his girlfriend May. May is eager to marry and have a stable home. However, Neilson thinks it is foolish to stay in the same place and do the same job to support a family.
60. H. Wolf now is very grateful to her parents' decision. Otherwise, she would live in the countryside and struggle to make both ends meet with Jim. Now, she only needs to learn how to shop and dress herself up. Her parents chose Mr. Right for her, who could afford almost everything she dreamed of.
