Population ageing and the resulting pressures on existing pension sys
tems constitutes one of the most important challenges modern societies will
have to face over the coming decades. Since governments have responded to (1)______
the such pressures by adopting a plethora of pension reforms, the adaptation (2)_____
process is far from over.
This book comprehensively documents developments in pension policy
in eleven advanced industrial countries in Western Europe, East Asia and
North America. In order to explore what population ageing means for the
sustainability of pension systems, the authors present a detailed preview of (3)______
pension policy making over the past two decades and provide an up-to-date
analysis of current pension legislation. They examine the factors that can
facilitate or impede the adaptation of pension systems and the features that
shape and determine reforms. They also highlight the fact that although the
path of reform walked by each country is somewhat different, the processes (4)______
at working are often very similar. Ageing populations throughout the world (5)______
are extremely reluctant to see their pension systems dismantled and are,
however, prepared to mobilize in their defense. This process of mobilization (6)______
interacts demographic pressures and institutional constraints to help deter- (7)______
mine the future direction of pension policy.
The breadth of geographic coverage provides an almost international (8)______
picture of the impact of ageing for pension reform, at least in terms of high (9)______

选项
答案
worthy — worthwhile
解析
worthy尽管可以作名词的修饰语,但是它的意思是“名副其实的、高尚的、受人尊敬的”,如a worthy man(一个可敬的人),此处并不符合上下文的意思。实际上原文是说“这是一本值得一读的书”,应该用worthwhile,表示“值得的”,如a worthwhileattempt(一次值得的尝试)。
