    How to Make a Budget (预算)

    Most likely, you aren't 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 aren't careful, it can be gone 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. don't 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!

    56. Who is the passage written for ?

    C. Breadwinners. D. Bank managers.

    57. The purpose of making a budget is to help people____.

    A. Fill in the expenses as they really are.

    B. Avoid spending money on expensive things.

    C. Set aside a fixed amount of money as savings.

    I was 9 years old when I found out my father was ill. It was 1994, but I can remember my mother's words as if it were yesterday: "Kerrel, I don't want you to take food from your father, because he has AIDS. Be very careful when you are around him."

    AIDS wasn't 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 father's other children lived far away, so it fell to me to look after him.

    We couldn't afford all the necessary medication for him, and because Dad was unable to work, I had no money for school supplies and often couldn't even buy food for dinner. I would sit in class feeling completely lost, the teacher's 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 didn't 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 couldn't 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 hear her teacher's words.

    62. Why did Kerrel keep her father's 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 people's attention to AIDS.

    D. To remember her father.

    C

    Why I Don't 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 don't 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 government's 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 one's 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 it's my impression that they simply prefer begging to working. I am not generalizing about street people. I am talking about the people whom I actually meet. That's why I do not give "spare change," and I don't 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 doesn't the author give money to street people?

    A. He doesn't think they need help.

    B. He doesn't 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 milk for the city infant ' who, in many cases, 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 infant

    B. fed babies of other familie

    C. sent their babies to the country

    D. failed to look after their babie

    71. Which is the best title for the passage?

    A. Societal Conditions in Premodern Time

    B. Practices of Reducing Maternal Attachment

    C. Poor Health Service and High Infant Death Rate

    D. Differences between Modern and Premodem Parent

    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 we'd 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 (人为促生的) 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 they'd 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, it's not that easy. False memories appear to work only for foods you don't 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 it's for the patient's benefit.

    Loftus says there's 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 that's a 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 they'll 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 don't want it

    C. are willing to let doctors control their mind

    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

    第一节 情景作文

    One possible version:

    I'm Wang Shan, a girl of sixteen, presently attending Beijing Yangguang Middle School. I like music, especially classical music. I'm also interested in photography because it allows me to record the beautiful moments in my life. Through my hobbies, I've made many friends. In fact, I like meeting new people and enjoy talking with them. Believing we all need help from each other, I appreciate friends' help, and I'm willing to help anyone in need.

    I love life; I love Mother Nature; and I love peace. I hate any form of violence.

    I would like to join the Peace & Friendship Summer Camp since it would be a great opportunity to make friends with young people from different countries and learn about their cultures.

    第二节 开放作文

    One possible version:

    I think the artist wants to show changes in the city.

    The man stands for the old generation in China: he is wearing old-fashioned clothes that date back to the beginning of the twentieth century; he is looking at the laptop in great curiosity, unable to figure out what it is.

    The girl, on the other hand, is totally different: she has long hair and wears a fashionable short skirt. While the man doesn't know anything about the laptop, she plays with it skillfully.

    The striking differences between the two show rapid changes in people's life in China.

    22、答案为B。该题通过语境考查介词的用法。句意:我们需要何时将余额付清?在九月三十日前。in只有加一段时间,才能表示"多长时间之后",而这里是这一天,所以不对;during和within不符合语境,且有中式英语的印迹。

    完形填空

    这篇文章又是一篇感人至深、具有较好教育意义的精品小文。整篇文章有一个标题"Learning to Accept",(学会接纳/宽容),这非常有利于考生在一定程度上把握文章的主旨意思。作者以倒叙的形式讲述了发生在他自己身上的故事。作者本以为:有失必有得,要学会放弃。包括个人的青春、美丽和朋友在内的一切如果失去,必然有相应的事物来代替;而作者年老多病体弱的父亲却教给了他这样一个道理:他放弃了一切却一无所获,得到的只是家人的爱—不要斤斤计较,要以爱心来对待一切,面对生活,使自己的内心平和。从文体上看,本文属于学生非常熟悉的记叙文。多数学生都看懂了文章,体现了完形填空重点考查词在真实的语言环境中的灵活应用。

    36、答案为C。爸爸教给我这个道理不是在他健康强壮的时候,而是在体弱多病的时候。语气转换,有转折的意思。根据however的在句中的语法特点,也可选中。

    37、答案为B。根据全句的逻辑意思和下文提示(he can no longer walk…),选择一个与ill并列意思的词。

    38、答案为D。爸爸以前是一个健康积极的人。

    39、答案为A。take away使(感情、感觉等)消失、带走;throw away丢弃某物(因不用或不需要);send away把……送往另一地方;put away收好,放起。

    40、答案为B。由上文爸爸体弱多病和下文他说的话,得知爸爸甚至是讲话都很困难。impossible过于绝对,指失去说话能力。hopeless没有指望的,绝望的。stressful产生压力的。

    41、答案为C。开始交谈,谈论生活,不是笼统地讲担心谁的生活(worry about),关心谁的生活(care about),询问谁的生活(ask about)。

    42、答案为D。我跟他们讲了我的一个信条(我个人相信的事)(belief)。由下文知不是我的一个什么经历(experience);抱负(ambition)或者某个决定(decision)。

    43、答案为A。随着(as)我们成长、长大,我们时常得放弃一些东西。

    44、答案为C。总是看起来是这样的,因为是一个个人的看法及一般情况,语气不是特肯定又不是某个人的建议或要求,故其它三个选项不可取。

    45、答案为A。speak up: (爸爸)突然大声说,说到;turn up:拧大,开大;出现,露面;sum up:归纳,总结;判断,估量(此前,爸爸并没有说话,故不能选);open up:开拓,开辟;开始畅谈,倾吐心事(不是一两句话,更不能突然开始)。

    46、答案为D。根据上下文及作者爸爸当时的状况,所谓的"美好的事情"一无所有了,从外表看来只是一个体弱多病,非常难过的老年。故give up everything.

    47、答案为A。父亲提出一个问题,我以为让我回答,我正冥思苦想着答案,他却自己给出了答案,这出乎我意料。

    48、答案为C。回答针对上面的父亲的那个问题:What did I gain?

    49、答案为A。我深受触动,所以改变了以后我自己为人处事的方法。

    50、答案为C。would表示习惯性的行为或做法。

    51、答案为B。一想起父亲的话,我就内心平静下来,控制情绪;而不是保持安静(quiet),放松(relaxed)或高兴(happy)。

    52、答案为D。一想起父亲既然能够用对别人的爱来代替他巨大的疼痛或痛苦这件事,我就必然能够(be able to do)放弃自己的不值一提的易怒情绪。

    53、答案为D。这样(in this way),我就从我爸爸身上学会了宽容的力量(power of acceptance)。method指解决某个具体问题的科学的、符合逻辑的方法,通常搭配是with this/that/…method.

    54、答案为B。现在我想知道,如果我从很小的时候起,就认真地听我爸爸的,我还会学得其它什么东西呢?要注意该句用的是虚拟语气。

    55、答案为B。即便如此,我也不是特别地遗憾,我很感激我爸爸送给我的这个礼物(gift)。礼物这个词充分表明了我对爸爸说的话的深层次理解和重视。award:奖励,奖金; lesson:课,教训;word:消息,单词。
