    There are stock markets (股票市场) in large cities in many countries. Stock markets in Paris, London, Tokyo, Shanghai and New York are among the largest and most well-known. The stock, also called stock exchange, is a place where people can buy or sell shares of a factory or company. And each share means certain ownership(所有权) of a factory or company.

    Different people go to stock markets. Some are rich, who want to get more money than they have. Others are not very rich, who buy stocks to try to become rich. Still others buy stocks as part of their plan to save money.

    Of course, investing (投资) money in the stock market is not the safest way to make money.

    No one can tell exactly whether the shares will be doing well. The factory or company may do badly. Then the stocks will go down, and the investors will lose money. The stock may go up or down for a number of untold reasons. Everyone wants the stock to go up, but sometimes even if a factory or company does a good job, the stock may still go down.

    Going to the stock market is often like gambling (赌博). All want to make money by “gambling’ in the stock market. Factories and companies that need money are pleased that so many people are ready to “gamble”. Indeed, the stock market is an attractive(吸引人的) but complex part of the business world.

    1. If you are a good investor, ________ in the stock market.

    A. you can always make money

    B. you can tell exactly when the stock goes up or down

    C. you may sometimes lose money

    D. your gambling is always safe

    2.The passage mainly wants to tell us________.

    A. how to buy or sell shares

    B. the stock market is like gambling

    C. a general idea of stock market

    D. investing money in the stock market is not the safest way

    3.Factories and companies are pleased that so many people “gamble” because________.

    A. they can make them rich

    B. they need their money to do business

    C. they need more people to work for them

    D. some people win and some lose

    4.The word “complex” in the last sentence probably means________.

    A.easy B. not simple C. complete D. Modern

    When Julio Diaz stepped off the subway after work one night, he was simply planning to go to his favorite local diner for a meal. But when a teenage boy approached him with a knife, Diaz knew the evening was about to take a more dramatic(巨大而突然的) turn.

    The young man demanded Diaz’s wallet, and Diaz passed it over without objection(异议). But just as he turned to walk away, Diaz called, “Hey, wait a minute. You forgot something.”

    The young man turned around, surprised.

    “If you’re going to rob people for the rest of the night, you might as well take my coat to keep warm.”

    The teenager looked at Diaz in disbelief, and asked why he would do such a thing. Diaz replied, “If you’re willing to risk your freedom for a few dollars, I guess you must really need the money.”He said he was heading out for dinner, and that he would be happy to take someone with him.

    The young man decided to take Diaz up on his offer. As they were sitting at the table, the manager, dishwashers and waiters all stopped over to say hello to Diaz, and the young man was amazed at his popularity.

    “Haven’t you been taught that you should be nice to everybody?”Diaz asked him.

    “Yeah, but I didn’t think people actually behaved that way,” the teenager replied. Thanks to Diaz, he was beginning to see that kindness wasn’t so strange, after all.

    When the bill came, Diaz told the teen that he’d have to get the check. After all, he still had Diaz’s wallet.

    But the teenager put the wallet on the table without a moment’s thought, and Diaz treated him to dinner. Diaz also gave the would-be robber a $20 bill — in exchange for his knife. “I figure, you know, if you treat people right, you can only hope that they treat you right,” Diaz said.

    1.The young man felt surprised when Diaz ________.

    A. called him to wait for a moment

    B. passed the wallet over without objection

    C. stepped off the subway platform

    D. invited him to have dinner together

    2.The underlined part “take Diaz up on” can be replaced by “________”.

    A. follow B. understand

    C. accept D. check

    3.The teenager gave the wallet back to Diaz maybe because _________.

    A. Diaz was so popular with people in the restaurant

    B. he had been given a $20 bill to take with him

    C. Diaz had to pay for the meal they had together

    D. he began to realize people should be nice to others
