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.
Daughter
选项
答案F
解析 Daughter：“I already have job contacts in Australia and also some very good friends．However，I am concerned that my parents，especially my father won’t adapt well to the changes．”从这句话可以得知女儿在澳大利亚已经有了工作和几个朋友，但是又考虑到父母不能适应新的环境，所以比较矛盾，选择F。
