Some people think that we can do anything if we have enough money. However, I don't think so. ©There is no doubt (hat money can buy many things we need.But there are lots of wonderful things in the world that cannot be got with money, such as knowledge and health.

A. reduced B. battledC. documented D. prevented15. A. attract B. contribute C. entrustD. apply二、阅读理解(共30分)AIn life, we should try to combine both money and happiness together. To do this I suggest the following steps:Consider the Importance of SimplicityThe aim of life should not be to control as many belongings and as much wealth (财产)as possible. If you feel happiness is directly related to material belongings, you are making a mistake. We should learn to be pleased with what we have and appreciate the advantages of simplicity.Do Not Take Money Too SeriouslyDoes it pain you to spend your own money-even if it is for something useful? The problem with this, however, is that if we are always unwilling (o spend money, we miss the whole point of making it. We should look at money in this way: spending money enables more to come into our lives. It is no good saving a large amount of water unless we use it to produce power; similarly, it is no use accun】ula【ing savings if we feel unwilling to spend them.Reduce Financial (财政的)Worries to the Lowest DegreeWc will be happy if wc can make money a small part of our lives. To be able to do this, wc need to prevent creating situations of debt (负债)as getting out of debt can be difficult and stressful. If you do need to go into debt, plan ahead and find a loan (贷款)which is clear and manageable to repay. Try not to make risky investment (投资)plans, as these give you the possibility to gain more as well as to lose a lol more.Do Not Live to WorkIf you spend all your time working, you will have no opportunity to spend your money. Don't feel guilty about turning extra work down; it is also important to have a rest. It is good if we can feel pleased with work, but if we only spend time working then our lives will be short of a proper balance.16. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Working more hours can do good to people.B. You should be guilty if you refuse to do extra work.C. Investment will help you gain more money.D. Happiness is not decided by the things you have.17. What attitude should we take towards money according to the passage?A. Spending money is to bring more into our lives.B. The aim of life is to collect more money.C. Wc should try our best not to lend money.D. It is more important to save money than to spend it.18. What docs the underlined word "accumulating" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Making use of.B. Getting more and more of.C. Cutting down on.D. Being in need of.19. To make money a small part of our lives, we need to.A. pay no attention to moneyB. have enough money firstC. prevent getting into debtD. make no investment plansBWhen my father married my mother in 1943 he gave my mother a 1937 crown coin and told her to keep it in the back of her purse and not spend it. This would mean that she always felt that she was protected and would always have money if she really needed it.When I was married in 1970 my husband who had heard this story obtained a 1937 crown for me and I have always kept it in my wallet and I have always had enough for my needs.A friend recently fell on hard times partly through external(夕卜部的)circumstances and partly through poor planning. Friends and I have loaned her money, paid her bills, even given her food and tried to teach her budget techniques, but none of them has been a solution. She has just slipped deeper and deeper into financial trouble and depression.Last week she looked pale and unwell, very depressed and hopeless. I then thought about how the crown, a reminder of another's care and love, had protected me so I went to the bank for a $ 100 dollar bill. I told my friend the story and asked her to keep the $100 in the back of her wallet. It turned out that she didn't have a wallet so she put the money in a little pencil case where she kept her coins. She immediately felt better. "I feel rich and thank you for being a good friend" she said and we were both a bit teary.The reason for passing this on is not to praise any generosity on my part but to show the power of "random acts of kindness". I went home and remembered a little wallet I had (hat I'd never used and thought "I'll give that to my friend." I opened it and inside found $ 1 (X). The universe is very just and if your heart is open the reward always comes.20. What did the 1937 crown coin from the author's father mean to her mother?A. His concern for her.B.

In a little pencil case.C. In the pocket of her raincoat.D. In the layer of her suitcase.22. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The author became rich all of a sudden.B. The author's friend would receive a wallet as a gift.C. The author's friend was not touched by her story.D. The author fell uncomfortable when receiving the bill.23. What can be the best title for the text?A. A hard lifeB. The help to a friendC. A crown coinD. A gift from my fathercI grew up in a small town in New Hampshire, and every morning, sometimes before I woke up, my dad left fbr work. I didn't know much about what my dad actually did all day. But one thing I did know about my dad's day was that he often spent his lunch break looking for books fbr me. He would often come home in the evening with a book for me in his bag. When he handed the "gift" over to me, I immediately investigated its cover, checked out the description on the back, and sometimes started reading right then.1 was not always as appreciative of those books as 1 should have been, especially in my younger years. One time, my dad brought home a paperback(平装TS) called Bunya the Witch. I scanned the cover quickly before declaring(断言),"Ugh! It's just another stupid farm book," and dropping it on the ground. I was rightfully reprimanded for being an ungrateful kid, and I learned that valuable lesson about not judging a book by its coverBunya the Witch turned out to be one of my favorites.As 1 got older, my dad favored books focused on strong young female characters, like Invincible Louisa by Cornelia Meigs, Up a Road Slowly by Irene Hunt, and Homesick'. My Own Story by Jean Fritz, books I remember to this day.It's not just the books themselves that stay in my memory. It's the girl reading them, and what she felt as she read. I think back to hours spent in my childhood bedroom, reading about young women who faced lives much more difficult than mine. I learned from their courage and drew inspiration from their bravery.To this day, I love to read. I love the excitement of opening up a new book and getting lost in whatever story the author wants to cell me. And quite often, when I've read something really wonderful, the first person I pass it along to is my dad. I figure I owe him.24. What do wc know about the young author from paragraph 1?A. She asked fbr gifts every evening.B. She was interested in books.C. She cared about her dad's work.D. She enjoyed investigating things.25.

Treasure one's present life.B. Never give up a book due to its cover.C. One should fight against life's difficulties.D. Teens can also achieve really great things.27. What can be the best title for the text?A. Dad, me, and love of readingB. Dadmy first teacher in lifeC. Reading-a source of knowledgeD. Readers, books, and a key to successDThe First Rule of Finance is to live within your means by spending no more (han 80% of your take-home pay. If you take home $100 per week, spend no more than $80.But ever look at what people spend their money on? I have relatives and friends deeply in debt, spending $ 12 for every $ 10 they cam instead of the $8 you know they should be spending. When I see them, they're proud of their new whatever. "What do you think of my new truck?" asked one from the driver's seat. "Do you like my new shoes?" asked another on high heels. "Check out my new big screen." said a third while holding the remote in his living room. We've all heard people fishing for compliments on their new toys.Every one of them was proud of what they'd financed. They seem to have bought it fbr the purpose of being proud, of showing off, of keeping up with the Joneses. "Look at my new.?” is everybody's favorite phrase, even when the object in question isn't theirs at all and won't be new when they've finally paid for it, if they ever do.They're proud of being stupid. They think it's cool to drive the financed car, wear the financed shoes, and watch the financed TV, but to smart Deople, whose opinions are (he only ones we should respect, these people look dumb as rocks.The Joneses, nine times ou( of 10, are financially stupid. That's why they have all (hat stuff on borrowed money. Why try to copy them? Worse, why try to impress them? Copy and impress smart people, the ones who own their stuff. If you want to impress smart people, debt is the last way to go about it. Trying to impress a money-smart person by going into debt is like trying to impress Olympic swimming champion Michael Phelps by drowning in a pool. Michael Phelps is impressed by good swimming and a money-smart person by good money management.28.
