28、t the root of a lot of bossy behavior, says family psychologist John Taylor.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the

33、 one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Yu Pengnian is an 88-year-old real estate Chinese businessman. He amassed a fortune of $1.3 billion dollars during his career but instead of keeping the money and living like an emperor, he decided to give it

34、 all away. All of his fortune will be spent on helping poor Chinese students get a better education.And Yu isnt the only super-rich person in China who has this spirit of giving. Chen Guangbiao, a Jiangsu recycling tycoon, has given millions of dollars to charity and promises to give all of his mone

35、y to charity when he dies. Yu and Chen are among the many businessmen who have become prosperous during Chinas economic rise. An American business magazine, Forbes, estimates that there are 117 billionaires in China and hundreds of thousands of millionaires. What sets Yu and Chen apart from the rest

36、, though, is their tremendous generosity when it comes to donating money to charity. Last week Bill Gates and Warren Buffett came to Beijing. Gates and Buffett, two of the worlds richest men, are also the worlds biggest philanthropists. They invited fifty of Chinas richest people to have dinner with

37、 them and talk about the spirit of giving. At first, only a few people accepted their invitation. It seemed some of the invited guests were afraid that Buffett and Gates were going to pressure them into giving their wealth to charity. A lot of people are angry at the billionaires who are not willing

38、 to give away their fortunes. They criticize them for being miserly and not caring about the poor and the less fortunate. But I think this criticism is wrong. A gift, any gift, should come from the heart. Instead of criticism, these reluctant billionaires should be encouraged to follow the examples

39、of Yu Pengnian and Chen Guangbiao. Encouragement is always a better strategy than criticism. As we say in English, “You can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.66.
