【题目】In Western countries people have been using the installment (按揭)plan since the first half of the twentieth century. Today, a large number of families in Great Britain buy furniture, household goods and cars by installments .In the U.S., the figure is much higher than in Great Britain, and people there spend over 10 percent of their income on the installment plan.
The price of an article bought on installments is always higher than the price that would be paid by cash. There is a charge for interest. The buyers pays one quarter or one third of the price as a down payment when the goods are delivered to him. He then makes regular payments, weekly or monthly, until the full price is paid up. The legal ownership of the goods remains with the seller until the final payment has been made.
Installment buying has advantages and disadvantages. It can help couples with small incomes to furnish their homes and start housekeeping, It increases the demand for goods, and in this way helps business and employment. There is ,however, the danger that when business is bad, installment buying may end suddenly, making business much worse. This may result in a great increase in unemployment. If the people on the installment plan lose their jobs, they will probably not be able to make their payments. If great numbers of people are not able to pay their installment debts there is a possibility that businessmen cannot collect their debts and will therefore lose money. If businessmen lose money or fail to make a satisfactory profit, it becomes more likely to have a depression. This is why, in some countries, the government controls the installment plan by fixing the amount of the down payment to discourage people from buying more than they can pay for on the installment plan.

A.British families just use the installment plan to buy furniture.

【2】Goods bought on installments are more expensive than goods bought by cash because_________.
A.the buyer has to pay extra money as interest
B.the delivery of the goods charges extra money
C.the buyer has to pay a down payment
D.The service offered by installment plan charged extra money
【3】What will happen to a buyer if he fails to make the full payment for an item bought on installments?
A.He might lose his job
B. He will stop owning the item he has bought
C. He will have to sell what he has bought
D. He will go into debt

【题目】Pop stars today enjoy what once only belonged to the royalty(皇室). Wherever they go, people turn out in their thousands to greet them. The crowds go wild trying to catch a brief glimpse of their smiling, colorfully dressed idols. The stars are transported in their chauffeur driven Rolls-Royces, private helicopters or executive aero planes. They are surrounded by a permanent entourage (随从)of managers, press agents and bodyguards. Photographs of them appear regularly in the press and all their comings and goings are reported, for, like royalty, pop stars are news. If they enjoy many of the privileges of royalty, they certainly share many of the inconveniences as well. It is dangerous for them to make unscheduled appearances in public. They must be constantly shielded from the adoring crowds who idolize them. They are no longer private individuals, but public property. The financial rewards they receive for this sacrifice cannot be calculated, for their rates of pay are great.
And why not? Society has always rewarded its top entertainers lavishly. The great days of Hollywood have become legendary : famous stars enjoyed fame, wealth and adulation (奉承)on an all-time scale. By today's standards, the excesses of Hollywood do not seem quite so spectacular. A single gramophone record nowadays may earn much more in royalties than the films of the past ever did. The competition for the title "Top of the Pops” is fierce, but the rewards are truly huge.
It is only right that the stars should be paid in this way. Don't the top men in industry earn enormous salaries for the service they perform to their companies and their countries? Pop stars earn vast sums in foreign currency—often more than large industrial companies- and the taxman can only be grateful for their massive annual contributions to the exchequer (国库) So who would begrudge them their rewards?
It's all very well for people in boring jobs to complain about the successes and rewards of others. People who make envious remarks should remember that the most famous stars represent only the tip of the iceberg. For every famous star, there are hundreds of others struggling to earn a living. A man working in a steady job and looking forward to a pension at the end of it has no right to expect very high rewards. He has chosen security and peace of mind, so there will always be a limit to what he can earn. But a man who at-tempts to become a star is taking enormous risks. He knows at the outset that only a handful of competitors ever get to the very top. He knows that years of concentrated effort may be rewarded with complete failure. But he knows, too, that the rewards for success are very high indeed : they are the payback for the huge risks involved and once he makes it, he will certainly earn them. That's the essence of private enterprise.
【1】 The author develops the passage mainly by __________.
A. comparing different ideas
B. giving explanations
C. inferring
D. listing typical
【2】 The underlined word “begrudge" in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to __________.

B. be satisfied with

【3】 According to the passage, which of the following can match the view of the author?
A. He who laughs last laughs best.
B. If you venture nothing, you will gain nothing.
C. He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.
D. Success belongs to the persevering.
【4】 The author holds a(n)__________ attitude towards the high income of pop stars.
A. critical
B. approval
C. optimistic
D. indifferent
【5】 Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. People are blind in idolizing stars.
B. There is fierce competition in becoming pop stars.
C. The government taxes pop stars very little.
D. Pop stars'life is more luxurious than that of royalty.
