How to Make a
Budget (预算)
Most likely, you
arent the family breadwinner. But doing a small job or getting a weekly
allowance (零花钱) would put some money in your pocket. For kids and grown-ups alike,
money is easy to spend. If you arent careful, it can be going in no time.
Being
responsible with your money is an important skill to learn --- and the sooner
you start the better. Whether you are tracking your spending or saving for
something special, creating a budget can help you deal with your expenses and
plan for the future. All you need are paper and a pencil --- and some
self-control.
First, take a
look at our sample monthly budget. Then, use a separate sheet of paper to plan
your own. In the first two columns (栏), list your sources (来源)
of income and how much you expect to earn from them. In the third and fourth
columns, list what you expect to spend your money on and the amount.
The left-hand
total should be more than or equal to the right-hand total. If it is, you have
an effective budget.
Budgets are not
complex, but sticking to them can be tough. When planning your budget, be
realistic about your expenses. If you know that you drop $18 at a movie, dont
write $12 in that space simply because you wish you were spending less.
If you are
eyeing a big purchase, such as a $150 skateboard, spend less and save more
until you have the total amount. No matter how attractive it may be, avoid
spending your savings. One day, you will thank yourself!

B
I was 9 years
old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1994, but I can remember my
mothers words as if it were yesterday: “Kerrel, I dont want you to take food
from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very careful when you are around
him.”
AIDS wasnt
something we talked about in my country when I was growing up. From then on, I
knew that this would be a family secret. My parents were not together anymore,
and my dad lived alone. For a while, he could take care of himself. But when I
was 12, his condition worsened. My fathers other children lived far away, so
it fell to me to look after him.
We couldnt
afford all the necessary medication for him, and because Dad was unable to
work, I had no money for school supplies and often couldnt even buy food for
dinner. I would sit in class feeling completely lost, the teachers words
muffled as I tried to figure out how I was going to manage.
I did not share
my burden (负担) with anyone. I had seen how people reacted to AIDS. Kids laughed
at classmates who had parents with the disease. And even adults could be cruel.
When my father was moved to the hospital, the nurses would leave his food on
the bedside table even though he was too weak to feed himself.
I had known that
he was going to die, but after so many years of keeping his condition a secret.
I was completely unprepared when he reached his final days. Sad and hopeless, I
called a woman at the nonprofit National AIDS Support. That day, she kept me on
the phone for hours. I was so lucky to find someone who cared. She saved my
life.
I was 15 when my
father died. He took his secret away with him, having never spoken about AIDS
to anyone, even me. He didnt want to call attention to AIDS. I do.
60. What does
Kerrel tell us about her father?
A. He had stayed
in the hospital since he fell ill.
B. He depended
on the nurses in his final days.
C. He worked
hard to pay for his medication.
D. He told no
one about his disease.
61. What can we
learn from the underlined sentence?
A. Kerrel
couldnt understand her teacher.
B. Kerrel had
special difficulty in hearing.
C. Kerrel was
too troubled to focus on the lesson.
D. Kerrel was
too tired to bear her teachers words.
62. Why did
Kerrel keep her fathers disease a secret?
A. She was
afraid of being looked down upon.
B. She thought
it was shameful to have AIDS.
C. She found no
one willing to listen to her.
D. She wanted to
obey her mother.
63. Why did
Kerrel write the passage?
A. To tell
people about the sufferings of her father.
B. To show how
little people knew about AIDS.
C. To draw
peoples attention to AIDS.
D. To remembered
her father.
C
Why I Dont
Spare “Spare Change”
“Poor but
honest.” “The deserving (值得帮助的)
poor.” These words always come to my mind when I think
of “the poor.” But I also think of people who, perhaps through alcohol (酒) or drugs, have ruined not only their own lives but also the lives
of others in order to give way to their own pleasure. Perhaps alcoholism and
drug addiction (上瘾) really are “diseases,” as many people say, but my own
feeling --- based. Of course, not on any serious study --- is that most
alcoholics and drug addicts belong to the “undeserving poor.” And that is
largely why I dont give spare change to beggars.
But surely among
the street people there are also some who can rightly be called “deserving.”
Deserving what? My spare change? Or simply the governments assistance? It
happens that I have been brought up to believe that it is proper to make
contributions to charity (慈善机构), but if I give some change to a beggar, am I making a contribution
to charity and thereby helping someone, or, am I perhaps simply encouraging
someone not to get help? Or, maybe even worse, am I supporting a cheat?
If one believes
in the value of private charity, one can either give to needy people or to
charitable organizations. In giving to a beggar one may indeed be helping a
person who badly needs help, but one cannot be certain that one is giving to a
needy person. In giving to an organization, on the other hand, one can feel
that ones money is likely to be used wisely. True, facing a beggar one may
feel that this particular unfortunate person needs help at this moment --- a
cup of coffee or a sandwich --- and the need will not be met unless I put my
hand in my pocket right now. But I have come to think that the beggars whom I
meet can get along without my spare change, and indeed perhaps they are
actually better off for not having money to buy alcohol or drugs.
I know nothing
about these beggars, but its my impression that they simply prefer begging to
working. I am not generalizing about street people. I am talking about the
about whom I acturally meet. Thats why I do not give “spare change,” and I
dont think I will in the future.
64. What does
the author think of beggars who take drugs?
A. They should
be given a check-up.
B. They really
need money to live.
C. They have no
pleasure in life.
D. They are not
worth helping.
65. Why doesnt
the author give money to street people?
A. He doesnt
think they need help.
B. He doesnt
have enough money to give.
C. He is not
convinced they will use it rightly.
D. He believes
they can get help from the government.
66. In the
second paragraph, the author presents his idea by _______.
A. asking
questions for people to think about
B. giving
examples to support his argument
C. raising
questions and answering them
D. expressing
his opinions directly
67. Which of the
following opinions does the author accept?
A. Drug
addiction is a disease.
B. Some street
people are poor and needy.
C. Most beggars
have received enough help.
D. Charitable
organizations handle money properly.
D
While parents,
particularly mothers, have always been attached to their infants (婴儿), societal conditions
frequently made this attachment difficult to maintain (保持). First of all, the high infant death rate in the premodern times
meant that such attachments often ended in hopelessness. Perhaps to prevent the
sadness that infant death caused, a number of societal practices developed
which worked against early attachment of mother and child.
One of these
premodern attachment-discouraging practices was to leave infants unnamed until
they had survived into the second year. Another practice that discouraged
maternal (母亲的) attachment was tightly wrapping (包裹)
infants. Wrapping effectively prevented the close physical interactions like
stroking (抚摸) and kissing that are so much a part of
modern mothers and fathers affection for their infants.
A third practice
which had the same distancing effect was wet-nursing. Breast-feeding (母乳哺育) was not popular
among the well-to-do in the early modern times; infants were often fed by wet
nurses hired for the purpose. In some places, such as nineteenth-century France,
city infants were sent to wet nurses in the country. Often a wet nurse would
feed her own child first, leaving little for the city infant --- who, in many
case, died. In Rouen, the death rate for children sent to a wet nurse was 35
percent.
68. Babies were
unnamed until they were two so that ________.
A. an old social
custom could be kept up
B. maternal
attachment could be maintained
C. they could
have better chances to survive
D. their parents
would not be too sad if they died
69. Why were
babies wrapped?
A. To protect
them from the cold.
B. To distance
their mothers from them.
C. To make them
feel more comfortable.
D. To make it
easy for their mothers to hold them.
70. Wet nurses
were women who _________.
A. babysat city
infants
B. fed babies of
other families
C. sent their
babies to the country
D. failed to
look after their babies
71. Which is the
best title for the passage?
A. Societal
Conditions in Premodern Times
B. Practices of
Reducing Maternal Attachment
C. Poor Health
Service and High Infant Death Rate
D. Differences
between Modern and Premodern Parents
E
A study
published in September suggests there is a surprising way to get people to
avoid unhealthy foods: change their memories. Scientist Elizabeth Loftus of the
University of California at Irvine asked volunteers to answer some questions on
their personalities (个性) and food experiences. “One week later,” Loftus says, “we told those people wed fed their answers into our
smart computer and it came up with an account of their early childhood
experiences.” Some accounts included one key additional detail (细节). “You got sick after eating strawberry
ice-cream.” The researchers then changed this detail into a manufactured (人为促成的) memory through leading questions --- Who were you with? How did
you feel? By the end of the study, up to 41% of those given a false memory
believed strawberry ice-cream once made them sick, and many said theyd avoid
eating it.
When Loftus
published her findings, she started getting calls from people begging her to
make them remember hating chocolate or French fries. Unfortunately, its not
that easy. False memories appear to work only for foods you dont eat on a
regular basis. But most important, it is likely that false memories can be
implanted (灌输) only in people who are unaware of the mental control. And lying to
a patient is immoral, even if a doctor believes its for the patients benefit.
Loftus says
theres nothing to stop parents from trying it with their overweight children.
“I say, wake up --- parents have been lying about Father Christmas for years,
and nobody seems to mind. If they can prevent diseases caused by fatness and
all the other problems that come with that, you might think thats more moral
lie. Decide that for yourself.”
72. Why did
Loftus ask the volunteers to answer some questions?
A. To improve
her computer program.
B. To find out
their attitudes towards food.
C. To find out
details she can make use of.
D. To predict
what food theyll like in the future.
73. What did
Loftus find out from her research?
A. People
believe what the computer tells them.
B. People can be
led to believe in something false.
C. People tend
to forget their childhood experiences.
D. People are
not always aware of their personalities.
74. According to
the study, people may stop having a certain food if they _______.
A. learn it is
harmful for health
B. lie to
themselves that they dont want it
C. are willing
to let doctors control their minds
D. think they
once had a bad experience of eating it
75. What is the
biggest concern with the method?
A. Whether it is
moral. B. Who it is best for.
C. When it is
effective. D. How it should be used.

Different people go to stock markets.
Some are rich, who want to get more money than they have. Others are not very
rich, who buy stocks and try to become rich. 78

stocks will go down and investors will lose money. The stock may go up or down for a number
of untold reasons.79

书面表达:
One possible
version:
Parents can be
examples for their children.
Here is a story. One day a little
boy watched his parents planting flowers in the garden, and he then learned to
water and look after little plants. When he saw that the flowers were growing
well, he shared the happiness with his parents. What beautiful flowers in full
bloom! The boy’s father proudly picked a flower and gave it to his wife to show
his love. But, to their surprise, the boy picked all the flowers and presented
them to his parents. Only at this moment did the parents realize that what great
effects parents’ behavior have on their children.
It is often said that parents are their
children’s first teachers, so I think they should try to be good teachers and
set good examples to their children.
