问题    Read the following article in which five people talk about emigrating to Australia. For questions 61 to 65, match name of each speaker to one of the statements ( A to G) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.
Mother
   Ours is a small country. That’s why I want to emigrate. I think it will guarantee my children’s future. I believe that I will be able to find a job as a university lecturer in maths and that my husband, a doctor, will easily find a job. Though I will miss my own country and friends, I am confident I will soon make new friends and settle well and quickly into Australia. I have already been there twice and I really liked it.
Father
   I recognize that things are not going well in my country. Nevertheless, I am very attached to it. I love the way I spend my life here and I also have my elderly parents to consider. They would not emigrate and could I leave them? I will always be able to make some kind of living in my country, and hope that my children will probably land on their feet. However, Australia may be a safer bet. I tend to be a rather conservative person.
Daughter
   I am 20. I am doing a degree in engineering and I know that it is fairly unlikely that I will be able to find a job when I graduate. I already have job contacts in Australia and also some very good friends there. I love the thought of being able to ski and do all the sports the Australians do. However, I am concerned that my parents, especially my father, won’t adapt well to the changes. I am a very practical person.
Son
   I’ m 24. I graduated in psychology last year. Since then I have been unemployed. I am currently going out with a girl I’ m thinking of marrying. She has a job--a good one--as a biologist. I’ ve been to Australia and liked it a lot. I recognize that it would be sensible to emigrate there, but I have no wish to leave my own country. I want to work for its improvement and I feel I only belong here. I wouldn’t like my parents to go without me. I am a bit romantic. Grandfather
   I am an old man and I don’t want to move very much. I’ ve lived here for about seventy-two years and I’ m used to the way of life here. I have been to a foreign country once and I found it hard to adapt well to the life there. So I’ m really worried if I emigrate to Australia. I haven’t been there, so I don’t know whether it suits me. Emigrating there might be good for my children’s future, but as far as I am concerned, I don’t want to leave here.
   Now match each of the persons to the appropriate statement.
   Note: there are two extra statements.
   Statements
  [A] I want to stay where I am since I’m old.
  [B] I am optimistic about the prospect of emigrating to Australia.
  [C] Changes can make life colorful.
  [D] I want to devote my life to the motherland.
  [E] Staying in my own country is good both for me and for my parents.
  [F] I have conflicting feelings about moving abroad.
  [G] I don’t like Australia very much.
Mother
选项
答案B
解析 Mother：“I believe I will be able to find a job，my husband will easily find a job． I am confident I will soon make new friends．”根据这段话，我们可以看出母亲对移民去澳大利亚的前景很有信心。所以应该选择B。
