【题目】The world is filled with smart ，educated and gifted people. We meet them every day. A few days ago ，my car was not running well. I pulled it into a garage and the young mechanic fixed it in just a few minutes. He knew what was wrong by simply listening to the engine sound. I was amazed. The sad truth is that great talent is not enough.
I am constantly shocked at how little talented people earn. I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $100，000 a year. A business consultant who specializes in the medical trade told me how many doctors and dentists struggle financially. It was this business consultant （顾问）who gave me the phrase ，“They are one skill away from great wealth.”
There is an old saying that goes，“JOB means ‘Just Over Broke（破产）”. And unfortunately，I would say that the saying applies to millions of people. Because schools do not think financial intelligence is intelligence，most workers “live within their means”. They work and they pay the bills. Instead I recommend that young people seek work for what they will learn ，more than what they will earn.
When I ask the classes I teach ，“How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonald's ？ ” almost all the students raise their hands.I then ask ，“So if most of you can cook a better hamburger ，how come McDonald's makes more money than you？” The answer is obvious: McDonald's is excellent at business systems.The world is filled with talented poor people.They focus on perfecting their skills at building a better hamburger rather than t he skills of selling and delivering the hamburger.
【1】The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph to show that .
A. he is just one of the talented people B. he is ready to help others
C. he has a sharp sense of hearing D. he knows little about car repairing
【2】The underlined part in the third paragraph can be best replaced by“ ”.
A. spend more than they can afford B. do in their own way
C. live in their own circle D. live within what they earn
【3】Why do talented people earn so little according to the author?
A. They don't work hard enough. B. They lack financial intelligence. C. They don't make full use of their talents. D. They have no specialized skills.
【4】The main purpose of the author is to tell us .
A. how young people can find a satisfactory job
B. what schools should teach about finance
C. why so many talented people are poor
D. how McDonald's makes much money

【题目】No fashion event captivates the world quite like the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. In November 2017, more than 55 models descended upon Shanghai for the lingerie (内衣) maker’s first show in Asia.

In 2009, Liu became the first woman of Chinese descent to walk in the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Liu also participated in the 2010-2012 shows. She returned to the Victoria’s Secret runway again in 2016.

She has stated that she knows that, as a career choice, working as a fashion designer or stylist would be “very hard work”, but she is now more seriously considering becoming a stylist because she would like “to share her fashion style — tomboyish, vintage, and comfortable— with the world”.

【题目】 A DREAM, for me, is like a torch to light up my insipid （平淡的）life and a pair of wings to fly me into the sky. The uncertainty of my future and the heavy burden of schoolwork had driven me into a negative situation and not until I had a dream did I get out there. I decided to become a hostess.
It was last summer. I went to Jinan, which is famous for its natural springs, and started to learn broadcast hosting. However, I found that it was not easy.
The weather was bad. It was too hot to stay calm, which made me homesick. I called-my parents at least five times a day. But as I tried my best to adapt to the weather and living conditions there, I became more independent.
Another thing bothered me, too. My teacher criticized all my mistakes. Grievance （委 屈）and exhaustion often reduced me to tears and sweat flowed down my checks. To get her recognition, I practiced my voice skills in a park every day, even on rainy days. You can't imagine how happy I was when she praised me for the first time.
My dream enabled me to change a lot. Without my dream, I wouldn't have had the courage and the confidence to host the New Year party at our school. On stage, I knew that it was a good beginning to my hosting dream.
I took the arts examination in the winter. To my delight, I did well. And I was more than excited when I received the offers from Shandong Normal University, Yunnan Normal University and Yunnan Art Institute.

【题目】American Country Music
Over the past twenty years, American country music has become more and more popular. Song writers are no longer writing about the modern values of the USA—money, success or expensive things to buy. Instead they are writing once more about things that are common for everyone: feeling alone in the modern world, the value of having good friends and so on.
In the 1950s, American music was about other things, for example, love—getting or losing a boyfriend or girlfriend. Money was also thought to be important.
Then in the 1960s, song writers turned to other subjects. During these years many young students were angry with society, so songs were often full of anger. Political leaders were not well thought of and those songs often made fun of them.
Today country music has returned. It has become big business and brings in between 200 and 400 million dollars a year. Once, the home of American country music was Nashville, Tennessee. Now, however, the music has reached all parts of the States, from Los Angeles in the west to New York in the east. Singers do not just come from the States but from all over the world. There are many famous singers from Britain, Canada and Australia. A lot of them appear on television too.
The first country singers sang while playing the guitar. It was easy for them to carry a guitar on their travels. Now, however, a lot of electrical equipment is needed for large theatres.
Country music today remains much the same as before. One subject to which country music often returns is “the good old days”. In “the good old days” people thought well of each other. People loved life in the open air. They believed that the best things in life were free: sunshine, laughing, walks in the beauty of the country, friends and music.
【1】What do we know about American country music?
A. Country singers had a great interest in politics.
B. Country music is originally written for the black.
C. More musical instruments are used by country singers.
D. Televisions lead to the growing popularity of country music.
【2】Which of the following does modern American country music focus on?
A. Friendship. B. Love.
C. Power. D. Money.
【3】Country singers return to the subject of “the good old days” to ___________.
A. record their past achievements
B. remind people of American history
C. express their appreciation of a simple life
D. call on people to stay away from social problems
