【题目】 Everybody in this world is different from one another. But do you know that understanding differences can help you better manage your money?
As we grow up, we gradually（渐渐地）develop a set of our own values or beliefs. These are influenced by society, our family, the education we receive and so on. Once this value system is set up, it’s not easy to change later in life. Financial experts（财务专家）say that everyone also has their own belief of how to manage their finances. This is the part of our value system and it has a great influence on the way we look after our money. According to our different values, experts put us in three categories（类别）. They are: the ant, the cricket（蟋蟀）and the snail（蜗牛）.
The ant—work first
Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don’t care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they make so that they can enjoy life when they get old. The ant loves to save.
The cricket—fun first
The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn’t think too much about the future. They even borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These people have little savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance（保险）.
The snail—living under pressure
The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long-term loans（借款）from the bank in order to buy things such as big houses. They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure if they can afford it. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully.
【1】The meaning of the underlined words “value system” in this passage is .
A.belief of how to manage our financesB.the way we look after our money
C.something that will not change later in lifeD.a set of our own values or beliefs
【2】The ant refers to people who .
A.work very hard in summer in order to store food for winter
B.can make more money if they work harder
C.save money they make for their later life when they get old
D.only care about enjoying the moment by working very hard
【3】Why do the crickets borrow money?
A.Because they would like to enjoy everything now.B.Because they are young.
C.Because they think they have no future.D.Because they want to buy insurance.
【4】The writer’s purpose in writing the passage is to .
A.make fun of the three kinds of silly people
B.make us understand the differences and manage our money better
C.make us understand we should spend our own money
D.tell us that we are the same as animals
【答案】
【1】D
【2】C
【3】A

【题目】阅读短文，根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
Blood donation is a very important activity. It is an easy and direct way to contribute to social work and helps the community. It helps to save lives and helps those who are in need of blood because of the heavy loss of blood during operations or in accidents. You can always be proud of it after making valuable contributions to society.
Blood donation is not a big problem, but you need to keep a few points in mind.
Before donating blood, make sure that the ferrum(铁) level in your body is high enough and for that you should take a healthy diet. Do not go for blood donation on an empty stomach. After having a balanced diet, you will feel strong and comfortable to donate blood.
For required hemoglobin(血红蛋白) in your body, drink lots of juice and other drinks. Fruit juice, such as apple juice is very good for increasing the blood level in your body.
For a good blood flow in your body, drink at least 6-7 glasses of water every day. Don’t take alcohol(酒) a day before and after giving blood. Do not smoke half an hour before giving blood.
When you are going for blood donation, be relaxed, which helps keep the right blood pressure. During the blood donation activity, take a deep breath and try to calm yourself. Don’t join in some other activities.
You need to take care of yourself after donating blood. Take a rest for 15 minutes after completion of the donation. It helps you to feel relaxed. Make sure that you have meals after donating blood. Smoking should be avoided for one hour after the process. Don’t join in some activities right away, for example, driving.

【题目】 This week, our topic is pollution. What’s the answer to all of our pollution problems? We asked two experts to give their views.
Forest Smith is a member of Green First, an environmental group:
Our future on Earth looks terrible. We’re filling our country with waste. We can’t breathe the air and the sea is polluted too.
I visited some relatives recently in a small village. They grow their own food and cycle everywhere. They are not rich, but they are happy and healthy. We have too many possessions. Most of us have more things that we would ever need. It’s such a waste!
We must close down most of our factories that would reduce rubbish and the air pollution. We must recycle more, give up all cars and improve public transport. Another big problem is that we live in big cities that are crowded with people. It’s time for us to give up our big cities and factories and go back to a simple way of life.
John Green is a scientist at a university:
“Things are not as bad as Forest says. We all have a bright future. We don’t need to give up cars, but we do need to invent better, cleaner cars that do not pollute the environment. Traffic will still be bad, so we need better public transport. We should also recycle more. But some things are getting better. My sister returned last month after living abroad for five years. She said, “Our city looks different from before—it is cleaner and greener now.
Science has made life better in so many ways. A hundred years ago, most people died before the age of fifty because life was so hard. We can’t go back to a world like that.”
【1】What’s Green First?
【2】Why do Forest Smith’s relatives grow their own food?
【3】who thinks we should invent cleaner cars?
【4】Why does Forest Smith suggest closing down most of our factories?
【5】What do both experts think we should do to deal with pollution problems?
