Longevity is one of humanity's great accomplishments.Yet it is seen as one of society's great headaches.As the world greys,growth,tax revenues and workforces will decline while spending on pensions and health care will increase.However,those extra years of life are predominantly healthy ones.Too many governments and firms fail to recognise this fact,instead lumping all the extra years in the damning category of 65 and over.This binary way of thinking,seeing retirement as a cliff edge over which workers and consumers suddenly tumble,bears little relation to the real world.A more radical approach would start by acknowledging that,in the rich world at least,many of the old are still young.They want to work,but more flexibly.They want to spend money,too.In western Europe the over-60s will account for 59%of consumption growth in cities between now and 2030,says McKinsey,a consultancy.

A．args

B．One World One Dream

正确答案：D
解析：字符串s没有被声明成静态的，题中当主函数调用打印函数输出s的内容时，Test类还没有被实例化，也就没有字符串常量s了。可将字符串s声明为static类型的，或者在打印字符前先实例化Test类，再打印这个对象中的字符串。
