1.A 2.C 3.B 4.C 【解析】 【原文】 I’m Emile Ratelband, a television host in the city of Arnhem, Holland. Now my age is having a bad effect on both my work and life. So I went to court to get my birth year legally changed from 1949 to 1969 and I self-identified as 20 years younger. The reason why I did so is that I want to avoid age discrimination. When I asked to borrow money from a bank or change my job, I was told it was almost impossible because of my age. I firmly believe that with the freedom of choosing my name, I want to choose my own age. I want to control myself. Besides, the Dutch government could benefit if it were to accept my demand. I would be happy to give up my monthly pension of around $1,370. That would be a savings of $343,000 over 20 years for the government. The city court is expected to give an official decision in about four weeks. And I’m waiting for that, but I’m not quite sure about their approval.
