Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2024·洛阳模拟)Definitions of adult learning vary, but it is usually defined as all forms of learning undertaken by adults after having left initial education and training, however far this process may have gone.
Education and training are important factors for achieving the strategy objectives of raising economic growth, competitiveness and social inclusion.However, with some exceptions, the process of implementing education and training remains weak.Most education and training systems are still largely focused on the education and training of young people and limited progress has been made in changing systems to mirror the need for learning throughout the lifespan.
An additional 4 million adults would need to participate in lifelong learning.Recent research confirms the importance of investing in adult learning.The research on adults indicates that those who engage in learning are healthier, with a consequent reduction in healthcare costs.
The big economic challenge in Europe is to raise its growth and employment performance while preserving social cohesion (凝聚力).The rapid progress in other regions of the world shows the importance of creative, advanced and quality education and training as key factors of economic competitiveness.General levels of competence must increase, both to meet the needs of the labour market and to allow citizens to function well in today's society.
Europe is facing big demographic (人口的) changes that will have a major impact on society and on the economy and consequently on education and training provision and needs.Over the next 30 years, the number of younger Europeans will fall by 15%.One in three Europeans will be over 60 years old, and about one in ten will be over 80.
Given the challenges identified above, raising the overall level of skills of the adult population by offering more and better learning opportunities throughout adult life is important for both efficiency and equity reasons.Not only does lifelong learning help make adults more efficient workers and more active citizens, it also contributes to their personal well-being.

Sergio's parents had trained him to use his left hand from an early age.As he grew up, he was used to not using his right hand.He could write with his left one and do some things with special tricks or techniques.Despite this, in the first days of new school, Sergio always felt like hiding his underdeveloped right hand in his sleeve as if nobody would ever find out if he did so.
It didn't take long for someone to learn Sergio's secret.Jeff Wilkins, the teacher of Sergio's engineering class, figured out that Sergio was missing part of his hand and decided to do something for the new student.Jeff had been leading a robotics project in the school and expert in 3D printing technology.Besides, he hoped to take advantage of this hands-on chance to help his robotics students learn more about engineering and how building a robotic hand worked.
So in his class, Jeff announced with great enthusiasm, “You're supposed to be engineering, coming up with new ideas and solving issues.Now Sergio needs a new hand, so we'll work together to build Sergio a robotic hand.” His words fueled everyone's curiosity and creativity.
For the next four weeks, Jeff and his class including Sergio worked on the project.After some precise measurements and researches, the class put forward a design draft.Jeff made a few adjustments and gave them some practical suggestions.With access to online models and a 3D printer, they eventually created a robotic hand, which was intended to look good and work well, like catching something.

The life-changing gift for Sergio drew huge attention.
参考范文:
Then came the final testing day.The whole class gathered in the science classroom, watching breathlessly as Jeff carefully loaded their self-made robotic hand onto Sergio's right arm.It fitted quite well! So excited was Sergio that his arm trembled slightly.Having put a baseball on the desk, Jeff signed to Sergio to pick it up.Slowly, Sergio extended his right hand and reached for the ball.Successfully he caught hold of it and everyone present broke into cheers! Holding the ball, Sergio couldn't contain his tears.Never in his life did he expect to catch something with his right hand!
The life-changing gift for Sergio drew huge attention.Jeff and his students became an instant hit and various media competed to cover the news.When interviewed about the intention of the project, Jeff said, “I intended Sergio's robotic hand to show our support for him.Meanwhile, I hope to foster students' scientific spirit through this hands-on operation.” His students stated that Jeff challenged them to transform abstract concepts into reality, from which they benefited greatly. Soon voluntary donations poured in, which would go to the school's scientific research and help students develop better.
