for our children, but when it comes to money, we often have little to say. As a result, our children may grow
up with clean hands and good manners, but without any idea how to manage their money.
Here are some basics that will help guide them their entire lives:
Show them the future. If your 13-year-old girl were to save $1.000, invest (投资) it at 8% and add $100
every month, by the time she"s 65, she would have $980,983!
Be careful of credit (信用). Credit cards can help you buy necessary things and build a credit history, but
they must be used responsibly, which means paying off your debt in time. Explain to your children that when
you buy something using a credit card, you can easily end up paying two or three times what you would have
paid if you used cash.
Teach patience. Suppose your child wants a new bicycle that costs $150.Rather than paying the cash, give
him some regular pocket money and explain that by putting aside,say,$15 each week, he will be able to buy it
for himself in only ten weeks.
Provide incentive. Tell your children the importance of saving. "For every dollar he or she agrees to save
and invest rather than spend, you agree to add another dollar to the pot," says Cathy Pareto, expert in money
planning.
Explain your values. Values and money are deeply intertwined, says Eileen Gallo, co-author of The
Financially Intelligent Parent. When your child demands that you buy something, explain why you really don"t
want to buy it. "You might say, "I"d rather save that money for your education,"" advises Gallo. Every time you
spend or don"t spend money, you have a chance to share your values.
B. children follow their parents" instructions
C. children manage their money
D. parents save their money
B. encourage him to put money away for it
C. explain to him the importance of investment
D. tell him to save some money by using a credit card
B. praise
C. excitement
D. encouragement
B. He wants to share his good ideas about money matters.
C. He thinks money management the most important for children.
D. Parents care little about their children"s management of money.

even big business, and having wonderful freedom, both from a boss and from the time clock ; the freedom
to make up our own rules for our work, and our own plans -arranging our own hours of work? That way
work would be both painless and fun. Or, so we imagine.
Well, in fact it isn"t quite as simple as that. Yes, it is true that being the boss has its satisfactions and that
you can arrange your working hours freely if you own your own small business. But in those early years of
starting your own business. you shouldn"t think of a free day, not to mention flying off for a month"s vacation.
It is not unusual for new business owners to work seventy or eighty hours a week, and if there is a day off,
that day might need to be devoted to accounting (算账).
But this negative picture doesn"t destroy the beautiful hopes. The possibility of getting something wonderful
in return-both material and mental-continues to drive that large number of people who start up small businesses
each yearin the United States.
B. to be his or her own boss
C. to get a time clock
D. to be free from work
B. devote himself to accounting
C. fly to some places in the world
D. have a day off in a week
B. a poor picture
C. limited freedom
D. unpleasant situations
B. people have a strong desire to seek personal gains
C. small businesses make big money each year in the US
D. small businesses have advantages over big companies
comedy (喜剧), that is exactly what happens. Dave Kovic, played by Kevin Kline, is a kind-hearted man
who runs a business that finds people jobs. He leads a typical (典型的) American way of life, except for
one thing－he looks exactly like the President, Bill Mitchell. In fact, the only thing that makes him different
from the nation"s leader is that he is very nice!
The president has started using look-alikes during some public appearances. Dave is offered a chance to
"serve his country" by becoming one. However, things go wrong. The President becomes very ill and Dave
ends up acting as the President forever.
Director Ivan Reitman, who made the popular and successful comedies like Twins, Ghostbusters and
Legal Eagles, could have gone for easy laughs by making fun of the American government. Instead, Dave is
an attractive comedy about an ordinary man in extraordinary situations. Kevin Kline gives a double
performance as Dave and the President, and Sigourney Weaver is at her best as his First Lady. The love story
that develops between her role and Dave is a real classic (经典).
The film is 100% American. However, if you"ve ever felt that anybody could do a better job running the
country than the people in power, then you"ll enjoy Dave!
B. To discus the Americans" ideas about the President.
C. To make a comparison between Dave and other films.
D. To introduce a new film to the reader.
B. Kevin Kline.
C. Bill Mitchell.
D. Ivan Reitman.
B. the director
C. an actor
D. a look-alike
B. The author thinks highly of the film.
C. The author is a fan of Hollywood comedies.
D. The author wishes to become the American President.
Sitting is art that isn"t getting passed along People these days feel as though they have to be doing
something If they are not working, they are jogging, or playing tennis or golf, or taking Courses to
improve their minds or bodies -or they are parked in front of the TV. Sitting in front of the TV isn"t
sitting-it"s watching.
People used to sit a whole lot. You would walk down the street or drive down the road, and there
they would be, out on the doorsteps, sitting. You could go down to the store and sit on the bench out
front in the Summer or around the fire in the winter. There were sitting benches out in the town square.
At the garage, there were straight-backed chairs. There among the oilcans and tries and spare parts, you
could kick back and sit.
Houses used to have sitting rooms, where the grown ups would go after Sunday dinner. Mom and
Dad, Grandpa and Aunt Ruby would sit and digest (消化) the fried chicken and talk about Aunt Ethel"s
illness, and how well the minister did today. Outside, the children would play, and the afternoon would
pass by in a comfortable haze (悠闲的氛围).
That sort of thing looks like doing nothing. A recharging battery (正充电的电池) doesn"t look as if
it"s doing anything either. Sitting restores your soul. if you want to enjoy a truly full life, don"t just do
something-sit there.
B. People should spend less time watching TV.
C. People should pass down their good habits.
D. People should take things easy for their own good.
A. people lived a more restful life in the past
B. towns were built to make living convenient
C. small town garages had a lot to offer 、
D. people enjoyed going out for a drive
B. watching TV
C. gathering together
D. playing with children
B. sitting helps people remember the past
C. sitting room may have different purposes
D. a sitting room is important for the old
1997. Half the population of the country watched the final event and a new kind of TV program was born.
Two years later in Holland, the first series of Big Brother was filmed. Again, it was a great success and the
final program was watched by 15 million people. Now more than 20 countries around the world have Big
Brother or Expedition Robinson on their TV screens. The ordinary people who take part in the programs
are known by millions of people in their own countries and reality TV has become big, big business.
For the TV producers, reality TV is a dream which come true because many of the programs cost nothing
to make. At some point, the television viewers (观众) are asked to telephone the program to vote or to apply
to take part in the show. It is the cost of these telephone calls that pays for the shows. One of the most
popular shows is Pop Idol. In the show, a group of attractive young people are made into pop stars. TV
viewers vote for their favorite person on the show. The winner makes a record and millions of copies of the
record are sold. His or her pictures are published on the covers of magazines or on the front pages of
newspapers, and then, they are quickly forgotten.
But not everyone is happy about reality TV. In Portugal, two TV channels got into trouble because they
showed too much of the personal lives of the people in the shows. In France, reality TV is called "rubbish
TV" and the TV studios of Big Brother were attacked three times in one week. In Greece, Big Brother was
described as "against human rights and civilization".
B. pop TV Stars
C. attractive people
D. famous film stars
B. TV actors who take part in reality TV shows.
C. TV viewers who telephone reality TV shows.
D. TV companies which broadcast reality TV shows.
B. Big Brother was one of the first reality TV shows in the world.
C. Rubbish TV is one of the personal reality TV shows in the world.
D. Expedition Robinson was the first reality TV show in the world.
B. reality TV will do well in many countries
C. all the people in Europe are in favor of reality TV
D. reality TV will not be broadcast in any countries
be able to make a living out of a bookshop. It is not a difficult trade to learn and the large chain-stores
can never force the small bookseller out of existence as they have done to the corner shop. But the hours
of work are very long-I was only doing a part-time job, but my boss put in a seventy-hour week,besides
regular journeys out of shopping hours to buy books.
The real reason why I should not like to be back in the book trade for life, however, is that while I was
in it I lost my love of books. A bookseller cannot always tell the truth about his books, and that gives him
a dislike for them. There was a time when I really did love books-loved the sight and smell and feel of
them-if they were fifty or more years old, that is. Nothing pleased me quite so much as to buy a bargain lot
of them on sale for several pounds. There is a peculiar flavour (独特的味道) about the unexpected books
you pick up in that kind of collection: little-known eighteenth-century poets, or out-of-date geography
books. For occasional (偶尔的) reading-in your bath, for example, or late at night when you are too tired
to go to bed-there is nothing as good as a very old picture story-book.
But as soon as I went to work in the bookshop I stopped buying books. Seen in a mass. five or ten
thousand at a time, books were dull and even a little tiresome. Nowadays I do buy one occasionally, but
only if it is a book that I want to read and can"t borrow, and I never buy rubbish.
B. a good position at a street corner
C. a regular journey out of the shop
D. the force of large chain-stores
B. selling books was only a part-time job
C. the books in the shop gave him a dislike
D. he was unable to be honest about the books he sold
B. valuable ones bought on sale
C. peculiar ones with great expectation
D. geography ones from the eighteenth century
B. after he gives up his job as a bookseller
C. which are interesting but hard to borrow
D. when he throws away old ones
