　　（2024·蘭州高一下質檢）When Sherrie and Michael Lloyd first got married， they had nine credit cards between them， and they were heavily in debt.Six years later， this southern California couple are debt-free with a healthy savings.Here’s how the Lloyds managed this remarkable turnaround.
　　After signing up for a six-week class called Financial Peace — they found it through their church； it’s based on the best-selling Dave Ramsey’s Complete Guide to Money — the Lloyds were inspired to take charge.Sherrie says the class taught her to see that “you can’t use your money for the future when it’s tied to the past.”
　　Using Ramsey’s financial principles， they first saved up $1，000 for an emergency fund.Then they consolidated their nine credit cards down to two and employed Ramsey’s “snowball” approach by paying off their smallest debts first before dealing with the larger amounts.Their final — and toughest — step was to transfer their remaining debt — $18，000 — onto one interest-free card and then give themselves an 18-month deadline to pay it off.It might be more doable than you think.
　　The effectiveness of the Lloyds’ financial plan came from their ability to see progress right away.By paying off $1，000 in credit card debt per month， Sherrie and Michael could actually see the debt going down.They also solved their problem as a team.“In a marriage， you’re in it together — both working towards a solution together，” Sherrie says.
　　To make this happen， they had to give up a few trips.It also meant saying no to certain luxuries， like eating out and going to the movies or amusement parks.“Know what’s important to you.For us， it was important to figure out our goals and pay off debts，” Sherrie says.She quotes one of Ramsey’s bits of wisdom：“Adults make a plan and stick to it， and children just do whatever they feel like doing.”
1.What did Sherrie learn from Financial Peace？（　　）
A.Money has never come easily.
B.A penny saved is a penny earned.
C.Don’t spend your money before you have it.
D.Buy what you need instead of what you want.
2.What’s the key of the Lloyds’ financial plan？（　　）
A.Doing everything quickly.
B.Making gradual progress.
C.Focusing on big problems.
D.Dealing with large bills first.
3.What attitude did Sherrie take to their sacrifices？（　　）
A.Positive.　　　　　 B.Doubtful.
C.Confused. D.Regretful.
4.What would be the best title for the passage？（　　）
A.How a Couple Got Out of Debts
B.How a Class Changed a Couple’s Life
C.A Couple Became Rich by Spending Wisely
D.A Couple Won Financial Freedom by Saving

　　（2024·青島高一下月考）Research has shown that people tend to get more happiness from spending their money on experiences， such as travel and entertainment， than on things， such as clothes and electronic goods.But are people happier during the purchased （購買的） experience itself？ Or does the happiness come more from expecting or remembering the experience？
　　A new study， published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology， offers an answer.Our experiential purchases bring us greater pleasure in terms of expectation and remembrance than do our material purchases， but they also bring us greater in-the-moment enjoyment， the study found.
　　For the study， the researchers recruited 2，635 adults who agreed to receive texts at any time during the day.The texts began with a happiness question， which asked the participants to rate how they felt “right now” on a scale from very bad to very good.Half of them were then asked if they had made a material purchase within the past hour， such as clothing or electronic goods.The others were asked if they had made an experiential purchase within the past hour， such as eating in a restaurant or attending a concert.
　　The researchers found that the purchasers of the experiences express higher levels of happiness than the purchasers of the material goods， no matter how much the purchases cost.
　　To address possible differences in types of purchasers， the researchers conducted a second study in which they researched more than 5，000 adults.“We still observed the same result，” said Amit Kumar， the study’s lead author.
　　The researchers said a possible explanation is the endurance （持久） of experiences in people’s memories， while the observed value of material goods weakens over time.
　　“If you want to be happier， it might be wise to shift some of your spending away from material goods and a bit more towards experiences，” Kumar said.“That would likely lead to greater happiness.”
5.Why does the author put forward two questions in Paragraph 1？（　　）
A.To make a fact clear.
B.To introduce a new study.
C.To compare different research.
D.To doubt the opinion presented.
6.Why did the researchers text the participants？（　　）
A.To ask them about their spending plans.
B.To understand their needs and spending habits.
C.To find out the change in their purchasing choices.
D.To monitor their purchasing behaviour and emotions.
7.What do the underlined words “the same result” in Paragraph 5 refer to？（　　）
A.The desire to purchase things weakens over time.
B.People are more willing to spend money on things.
C.People get more pleasure from spending money than making it.
D.Experiential purchases bring more happiness than material ones.
8.What did Kumar think people should do in the last paragraph？（　　）
A.Spend more on experiences.
B.Make future spending decisions.
C.Be happy with what they have bought.
D.Consider its value when buying a product.

Roderick：Young man， would you step inside a moment， please？

Oliver：[2]And it was the ship that brought you to England.
Henry：Yes.I went to the American consulate⑥ to seek help， but ...Anyway， I didn’t dare⑦ to try again.（The brothers smile at each other.）
Roderick：Well， you mustn’t worry about that.It’s an advantage.
Henry：I’m afraid I don’t quite follow you， sir.

Roderick：Please don’t go.You mustn’t think we don’t care about you.Oliver， give him the letter.
Oliver： Yes， I was about to go get the letter.Wait！ （getting it from a desk and giving it to Henry） The letter.
Henry：（taking it carefully） For me？
Roderick：For you.（Henry starts to open it.） Oh， no， you’d better not open it.[3]You can’t open it until two o’clock.
Henry：Oh， this is silly.
Roderick：Not silly.There’s money in it.
Henry：Oh， no.I don’t want your charity.I just want a job that earns an honest income.
Roderick：We know you’re hard-working.[4]That’s why we’ve given you the letter. （to the servant） Show Mr Adams out .
Henry：Well， why don’t you explain what this is all about？
Roderick：You’ll soon know.In exactly an hour and a half.
Servant：This way， sir.
Roderick：Not until 2 o’clock.Promise？
Henry：Promise.Goodbye.

百萬英鎊
第一幕　第三場
旁白：羅德里克和奧利弗這對富家兄弟打了個賭。奧利弗認為一張面值百萬英鎊的鈔票能讓一個人在倫敦活一個月。他的兄弟羅德里克則表示懷疑。他們看到一個窮困潦倒的年輕人從戶外走過。此人是亨利·亞當斯。
羅德里克：小伙子，請進來一下，好嗎？
亨利：誰？我嗎，先生？
羅德里克：是的，你。
仆人：（打開房門）早上好，先生。請進。
（亨利走進屋里。）
羅德里克：你好，你是……？
亨利：亞當斯。亨利·亞當斯。
奧利弗：進來坐吧，亞當斯先生。
亨利：謝謝。
羅德里克：你是美國人？
亨利：是的，我從舊金山來。
羅德里克：能告訴我們你來英國干什么嗎？你有什么計劃嗎？
亨利：呃，談不上有什么計劃。事實上，我流落英國是一場意外。
奧利弗：怎么回事？
亨利：呃，我自己有一艘小船。大約一個月前，我開船出海，傍晚時，一陣大風把我刮到了海上。第二天早晨，一艘船發現了我。
奧利弗：這么說，是那條船把你帶到了英國。
亨利：是的。我去美國領事館求助，但是……我是無論如何也不敢再去了。（兄弟倆相視一笑。）
羅德里克：呃，你不必擔心。這倒是件好事呢。
亨利：我不太明白您的意思，先生。
羅德里克：告訴我們，你在美國是做什么行當的？
亨利：我在一家采礦公司工作。你們能在這兒給我找份工作嗎？
羅德里克：別著急。不介意的話，能告訴我你有多少錢嗎？
亨利：嗯，不瞞您說，我身無分文。
奧利弗：（興高采烈）運氣太好了！兄弟，運氣太好了！
亨利：呃，對你們來說可能是件幸運的事，可對我來說不是！如果你們是在開玩笑，那我覺得并不好笑。很抱歉，我該走了。
羅德里克：請留步。你千萬別認為我們不在乎你。奧利弗，把信給他吧。
奧利弗：好的，我正要去拿信呢。等一下！（從書桌上拿起信遞給亨利）給你信。
亨利：（小心翼翼地接過信）給我的？
羅德里克：給你的。（亨利開始拆信。）哦，不，你最好先別拆。兩點以后再打開吧。
亨利：哦，這真是可笑。
羅德里克：這并不可笑。里面有錢呢。
亨利：哦，不，我不要你們的施舍。我只想要一份有誠實收入的工作。
羅德里克：我們知道你很努力。那就是我們為什么給你這封信的原因。（轉向仆人）送亞當斯先生出去。
亨利：呃，為什么不跟我講講，這究竟是怎么一回事呢？
羅德里克：你很快就會知道了。準確地說，一個半小時以后。
仆人：這邊請，先生。
羅德里克：兩點以后再把信打開。能答應我嗎？
亨利：我答應您。再見。

　　（2024·蘭州高一下質檢）When Sherrie and Michael Lloyd first got
married， they had nine credit cards between them， and they were
heavily in debt.Six years later， this southern California couple are debt-
free with a healthy savings.Here’s how the Lloyds managed this
remarkable turnaround.
　　After signing up for a six-week class called Financial Peace — they
found it through their church； it’s based on the best-selling Dave
Ramsey’s Complete Guide to Money — the Lloyds were inspired to take
charge.Sherrie says the class taught her to see that “you can’t use your
money for the future when it’s tied to the past.”
　　Using Ramsey’s financial principles， they first saved up $1，000
for an emergency fund.Then they consolidated their nine credit cards
down to two and employed Ramsey’s “snowball” approach by paying
off their smallest debts first before dealing with the larger amounts.Their
final — and toughest — step was to transfer their remaining debt — $18，
000 — onto one interest-free card and then give themselves an 18-month
deadline to pay it off.It might be more doable than you think.
　　The effectiveness of the Lloyds’ financial plan came from their
ability to see progress right away.By paying off $1，000 in credit card
debt per month， Sherrie and Michael could actually see the debt going
down.They also solved their problem as a team.“In a marriage，
you’re in it together — both working towards a solution together，”
Sherrie says.
　　To make this happen， they had to give up a few trips.It also meant
saying no to certain luxuries， like eating out and going to the movies or
amusement parks.“Know what’s important to you.For us， it was
important to figure out our goals and pay off debts，” Sherrie says.She
quotes one of Ramsey’s bits of wisdom：“Adults make a plan and stick
to it， and children just do whatever they feel like doing.”

　　（2024·青島高一下月考）Research has shown that people tend to
get more happiness from spending their money on experiences， such as
travel and entertainment， than on things， such as clothes and electronic
goods.But are people happier during the purchased （購買的）
experience itself？ Or does the happiness come more from expecting or
remembering the experience？
　　A new study， published in the Journal of Experimental Social
Psychology， offers an answer.Our experiential purchases bring us greater
pleasure in terms of expectation and remembrance than do our material
purchases， but they also bring us greater in-the-moment enjoyment， the
study found.
　　For the study， the researchers recruited 2，635 adults who agreed to
receive texts at any time during the day.The texts began with a happiness
question， which asked the participants to rate how they felt “right
now” on a scale from very bad to very good.Half of them were then
asked if they had made a material purchase within the past hour， such as
clothing or electronic goods.The others were asked if they had made an
experiential purchase within the past hour， such as eating in a restaurant
or attending a concert.
　　The researchers found that the purchasers of the experiences express
higher levels of happiness than the purchasers of the material goods， no
matter how much the purchases cost.
　　To address possible differences in types of purchasers， the
researchers conducted a second study in which they researched more than
5，000 adults.“We still observed the same result，” said Amit
Kumar， the study’s lead author.
　　The researchers said a possible explanation is the endurance （持
久） of experiences in people’s memories， while the observed value of
material goods weakens over time.
　　“If you want to be happier， it might be wise to shift some of your
spending away from material goods and a bit more towards
experiences，” Kumar said.“That would likely lead to greater
happiness.”

Stratford-upon-Avon.He ended it as a rich and famous London
playwright.12.（　　） We know when he married and when he had
children.We know he didn’t live with his family for many
years.Instead， he went to London， where he became an actor， a
playwright， and a director of plays.He built and bought theaters.He
wrote and acted in plays for the Queen of England.He made friends with
powerful noblemen.
　　But what about Shakespeare’s day-to-day life？ 13.（　　） What
made him write plays？

B. What kind of man and Father was he？
C. But have you ever read some of his plays？
