Are you good with money? I learnt to be careful with it during my childhood. My father would give me some pocket money and tell me it should last for a whole week. So, I learnt I had to save some if I didn’t want to run out of cash quickly. No surprise there: my dad was an accountant!
It’s never too early to become money savvy (懂行). That’s what British personal finances expert Martin Lewis thinks. He was part of a successful campaign to include financial education at school in England. Lewis says: “We desperately need to break the cycle of financial illiteracy (无知) in the UK — one of the causes of our current economic crisis and a huge contributor to continued mis-selling popularity.”
Being careful with money pays off. Banks in Britain recently found themselves having to compensate a large number of people who were persuaded to part with their cash and buy insurance policies they didn’t need. Many wasted their money on investments (投资) which were not for them. Few have the patience to read the small print.
The British say “taking care of the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves”. It means you have to watch your daily expenses and not just the big purchases in your life such as houses. Martin Lewis has made millions from his website which advises people to be saving and refuses any suggestion if he is tight. The expert says in an interview with the English newspaper the Daily Express, “The better you are with your cash, the better your life can be. People think I am telling them to stop spending money but I am not.”
24. The writer is good with money for the fact that .
A. he lived in a poor family B. he used to be short of money
C. his father instructed him properly D. his father limited his use of money
25. What can we infer from Paragraph 3?
A. Insurance may cheat. B. Banks often disappoint people.
C. Many people are earless with money. D. The author encourages proper investments.
26. What can we learn about Martin Lewis from the last paragraph?
A. He isn’t rich in fact. B. He is against big purchases.
C. He advises people to spend less. D. He won’t be persuaded into buying.
27. What is the best title for the text?
A. Avoid running out of cash quickly B. Learn to manage your money
C. Earn money in a good way D. Try to save money
C
Unlike reading and TV, modem devices are interactive rather than passive. Their connectivity to the outside world breaks into the bedroom. “They are causing sleep procrastination,” says Matthew Walker, a professor at the University of California.
Experts say we need between 30 minutes and an hour of preparation before going to sleep to give our minds a chance to unwind from the stresses of the day. Things like reading a book, having a hot drink or doing a repetitive task like counting sheep all help. But when we pick up our phones, we are undoing that preparation our brains need by extending the day — together with all the stress and worry from it into our night-time hours.
“We might feel perfectly sleepy and could drop off easily if the power went out and our phones didn’t work,” he says. “But when we pick up these devices it allows us to put off sleep. Often people will get into bed, someone will ping them on Facebook or send an email, and before they know it 20 to 30 minutes has gone.” “Sending a text message or checking your email means you are waiting for a response. Then once you put it down by your bedside, if you leave the phone on, there are all the pings,
dings and other sounds that can wake you up during the night.”
It appears there is a marked difference between staying up late with a good book or watching television in bed and using smartphones, tablets and laptops. The way we interact with electronic devices allows them to eat into far more of the time we should be asleep, according to researchers.
28. What does the underlined word “procrastination” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Loss. B. Trouble. C. Lack. D. Delay.
29. Why does the author say modem devices are interactive rather than passive?
A. They make users passive. B. They need wisdom to be used.
C. They concern active activties. D. They are different from reading and TV.
30. Paragrpah 3 mainly tells us .
A. how the phone spoils our sleep B. when people should go to bed
C. what electronic devices mean to us D. why we should shut off the phone when sleeping
31. What does the last paragraph imply?
A. There’s difference in the way we sleep. B. Reading or watching TV can help sleep.
C. People spend too much time on the phone. D. We sleep much less using electronic devices.
D
Known as GC-1, the drug reportedly speeds up metabolism (新陈代谢) of fat cells. “GC-1 dramatically increases the metabolic rate, essentially transforming white fat, which stores extra calorie with obesity (肥胖) and metabolic disease, into a fat like calorie-burning brown fat,” said Kevin Phillips, a researcher in Houston.
Until several years ago, scientists thought that only animals and human babies have energy-burning, “good” brown fat. “It is now clear,” Phillips said, “that human adults do have brown fat, but appear to lose its calorie-burning activity over
time.” White fat has a bad effect on people when the body has too much of it. Some published research shows that people who have more brown fat have a reduced risk of obesity. Researchers are now working on ways to “brown” white fat, or change it into brown fat.
GC-1 works, according to Phillips. He said he and other researchers have tested the drug in hundreds of mice. Obese mice, both genetically obese and those with diet-induced obesity, received GC-1 treatment daily. Genetically obese mice lost weight and more than 50 percent of their fat mass in approximately two weeks, Phillips reported. He said mice with diet-induced obesity experienced similar improvements. The drug also caused adaptive thermogenes (发热) in fat cells from mice. Cells grown in a dish, as well as tissue samples taken from obese mice, showed evidence of white-fat browning. “Our data prove that GC-1 is a novel fat-browning agent that may have use in the treatment of obesity and metabolic disease,” Phillips said.
The drug has not yet been tested for weight loss in humans. However, Phillips said it wouldn’t be long before it was used as a way of losing weight.
32. What’s the function of GC-1?
A. Browning white fat. B. Storing white fat.
A. Burning brown fat. D. Reducing brown fat.
33. What do scientists now know about brown fat in human beings?
A. It stops people from getting ill. B. It functions less as one grows.
A. Babies have more of it. D. Adults lose it quickly.
34. What does the test on mice show us about the drug?
A. It’s safe. B. It’s effective.
A. It needs further test. D. It can be used for humans.
35. What is the purpose of the author writing this passage?
A. To introduce the drug. B. To advertise the drug.
C. To prove the use of the drug. D. To explain the development of the drug.

Lost reality. Weak mind. Weak willpower. What is next? You cannot positively influence your life when you are not emotionally (感情上) strong. 36 I have seen many girls fall into desperate and I thought it would be a great idea to share some tips:
1. There is more to life than stress and fear.
37 Many women suffer from stress because they let it happen. Fear is a complicated thing, but human beings — especially we women — have enough power to keep it at bay.
2. There is an overwhelming road.
Show me at least one person in the world who has never had to handle problems — any types. Both rich and poor people have problems. 38 Build an emotional power on a daily basis so that when a problem pops up, you are ready to handle it without too much stress.
3. 39
Want to say something? Do it. Want to stay home instead of partying? Say no. Chances are you are guilty of hiding your emotions and keeping silence when you strive to speak up. Give yourself more freedom, even if it means simply screaming into pillows.
4. Exercise your emotions.
Moving your body is crucial while exercising your emotions is a must. 40 That is a huge challenge. I know it from my own experience. I often find myself in situations that make me feel weird and uncomfortable, but I never run away, calming down my fears and constantly repeating myself that I can cope with any emotional risk.
A. People are often busy.
B. Strength comes from within.
C. Stop sheltering your emotions.
D. Life is not going to be completely happy.
E. Put yourself in situations that will help you grow.
F. Remember that stress and fear sometimes may do good to us.
G. Stress does not make you better and fear does not make you happier.

Dear Tom,
I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t do well in your exam and that you are very worried about your study. I quite understand how you feel now, because I have had such kind of experience before.
Failure is the mother of success. Don’t be upset. You should keep a good state of mind and try to find out the cause of failure. At the same time, make a suitable plan for study and stick to it. In this way, I am sure, you can make progress in your
future study. I believe you can do well. Just believe in yourself.
I hope my letter will make you feel much better.
Yours,

W: Oh, no. It’s five o’clock already, and I haven’t finished my homework.
M: Don’t worry. That clock is fifteen minutes fast. You still have time to do it.
Text 2
M: What are you doing now? I told you to go to bed early so you’d be on time for your first day of school.
W: This loud chair is driving me crazy. I’m just trying to fix it.
Text 3
W: Good morning, sir. Can I help you？
M: Yes. I’d like to have a single room with a bath from the morning of September 7th to the morning of October 6th.
W: OK. We do have such a single room for you.

W: I hope you like the book I lent you. I wasn't sure if you'd be interested.
M: I had the same doubt at first. But once I started, I simply couldn't put it down.

W: I thought you were going to clean up in here!
M: I did! My toys are in the toy box, and all my clothes are in the closet.
W: But the floor is still so dirty!

M: Did you see the new student in Miss Foley’s class, Sally? I think she’s from
a poor family.
W: Poor? Why would you think that?
M: She had pieces of cloth on her jeans. I’ll bet she has holes in them, and she can’t afford to buy new ones. Her mom had to sew on the pieces of cloth to fix her old jeans.
W: Oh, no, you’re a little behind the times. That’s the fashion nowadays. Half of our class has pieces sewn on their jeans. If her parents are really poor, we certainly will help her.
M: That’s great. Anytime we should help the poor.

M: You look pale, Stephanie. What’s wrong?
W: I don’t feel good. I have a bad headache. In fact, I haven’t got much sleep this past week, and I feel really tired.
M: Why don’t you go to see a doctor?
W: Yeah, I think I should. But I have a report due tomorrow. Ms. Jenkins needs it for the board meeting next Monday.
M: Well, it’s Wednesday today. Why don’t you talk to Ms. Jenkins, and ask if you can hand it in on Friday morning?
W: Maybe I should try. I guess I just need a good sleep. Thanks, George.
M: If you need any help with the report, just let me know.

M: Oh, no. What happened in here, Anna? Why are there some dead plants?
W: I know. Every plant comes in alive and ends up dead. I definitely do not have a green thumb.
M: People always say that, but it’s not that hard to keep house plants. What did you do to care for this one?
W: That one had a big flower on it, so I put it in the sunlight.
M: This is a winter plant from north China. It doesn’t do well in direct sunlight. Just move it here. Didn’t you look up how to care for it when you got it?
W: No. I just thought it was pretty, and it was doing OK in the shop.
M: And this one here is all yellow. That means you gave it too much water.
W: Too much water? I think if it doesn’t need the water, it doesn’t have to drink it.
M: That’s not how plants work. I’m afraid the root system under the dirt of this one is destroyed. You’d better search for some information on the Internet.

M: Why don’t you have some cake, Sue? I made it just for this party.
W: Sorry, Bill. I’m not into cake at the moment. I thought you knew about my diet.
M: On your birthday? Surely you can eat whatever you want on your birthday. You can start your diet tomorrow. And anyway, you look great.
W: Well, thanks, Bill. I am not on a diet to lose weight, actually. My doctor told me to stop eating certain foods. I’m trying to avoid being allergic to something.
M: I didn’t know food could help with that. I also noticed you didn’t eat any of the sandwiches Jimmy brought.
W: No, I didn’t.
M: Why not try some salad? I’m sure you’ll feel better if you eat something.
W: All right. It’s the only thing here I can eat. What I really want is some hot soup.
M: Why don’t I go and get some soup from the restaurant across the street for you?
W: That’s awfully nice of you, but I’m enjoying my party. Maybe we could go afterwards.
M: OK. You go back in the house and chat with the guests, and I’ll call the restaurant and tell them we’ll be there later
TEXT 10
When Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings. So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place Costa Rica, which means “rich coast” in Spanish.
Though little gold was found, Costa Rica today is indeed rich in coffee and bananas. Coffee is the most important product in Costa Rica and most of it is exported to other countries like America and West Germany. Bananas are the country’s second most
important export. Costa Ricans also grow other crops such as fruits, corn and beans for their own use.
Costa Ricans love colors and their houses are painted in bright colors.
Education is very important to the Costa Ricans. Almost every village has a school and education is a must for children between seven and fourteen years of age. Boys and girls go to separate schools. Classes begin in March and end in November. The other three months of the year are harvest time and the children have to help their parents to pick coffee beans.
