I vividly remember walking back to my house after collecting the afternoon mails. I saw a credit
card statement, another credit card statement and our bank statements. It was in that moment that I felt a deep tension.
I realized that even though I had married a man who I absolutely loved and adored, I really didn’t have a clear sense of how he handled money and how the two of us were going to combine our different approaches to handling money in our marriage. I was more organized and detailed, but he was more of a laid-back type. I knew that getting on the same financial page was a key factor in creating a successful marriage and financial future.
I asked my husband if he would be willing to set up a time each week to talk about our finances and develop a plan for getting rid of our credit card debt. My husband said he would be willing to do this. Admittedly, he was skeptical — but willing.
We came to refer to our weekly meetings as our Financial Dates. We didn’t really have a clue as to what we were doing. All we knew was that we needed to give our finances serious attention. Some Dates were filled with tense conversations. Other Dates were filled with laughter, joy and creativity. However, we kept showing up for our Dates and we never gave up. What started out as a means for survival became a powerful connecting thread in our relationship. Something shifted within us.
Instead of our finances becoming a source of divisive tension that pulled us apart, they became the glue that held us together as we became a unified team.
I still recall the day that we excitedly crossed off our last credit card payment on the chart we had created. We had finally arrived. We were free. We had been given wings to fly.
Now, whenever I feel huge st ress I ask myself, “How am I contributing to what is happening right now?” This gives me the ultimate power to take action. Even though my husband and I don’t have any guarantee against future challenges, I am left with something deep within that is unshakable and that can never be taken away — the memory of our past successes and the power to integrate (整合) these lessons in my day-to-day life.
24. Why did the author feel nervous when collecting the afternoon mails? _______
A. She was not sure about her marriage.
B. She didn’t know how to handle money.
C. She could feel the pressure of the huge debt.
D. She was reminded of the quarrels in the family.
25. Which word can replace the underlined word “laid-back” in the second paragraph?_____
A. relaxed.
B. skeptical.
C. lazy.
D. confident.
26. What can we learn from the Financial Dates? ______
A. They showed the couple clear direction at first.
B. They left the couple nothing but deep sadness.
C. They were once interrupted but quickly continued.
D. They strengthened the couple’s relationship at last.
27. We can infer that when faced with stress the author will _______.
A. try to change the situation
B. focus on what contributes to it
C. get power from the memory
D. feel free to do what she likes
C
Most people don't get a lot of time off and when they do, they tend not to go away. I always ask my friends and former co-workers why this is and, almost typically, they always say it's because they simply can't afford to do so. Like most people, they see images of vacations on TV and
internalize the commercials to believe that travel must be like what it is on TV and therefore must be expensive. The only alternative is backpacking around in twenty bed hostels (旅店)with shared showers and eating pasta.
But that is not really true. Travel can be very cheap. You can easily travel far and wide without breaking the bank.
Here are some tips on how to get travel cheaply: Airfare:
Since flying makes up one of the largest portions of someone's budget, it's important to find ways to fly cheap. Most cities have a smaller airport with lower landing fees. This saving is usually passed onto you and why budget airlines don't fly into major airports. Moreover, book your flight 6-8 weeks in advance or look for last minute special deals. Buying your flight 6-8 weeks in advance ensures that airlines don't have you over a barrel. If you book your flight too soon, then airlines know you need it. If you book too early, airlines have chances against rising costs and keep prices high.
Accommodation:
I never stay in hotels unless Priceline can get me a rock bottom price. Why? They are never the cheapest (and sometimes the cleanest) option. Hostels cater to all ranges of travelers and are not simply for backpackers in 20 bed dorm rooms. Don't overlook them if you can't find a hotel deal. You can find hostels with private rooms, free Wi-Fi, free breakfast, showers, and TV for cheaper. And what about the cheapest one star hotel without Wi-Fi or breakfast? $110 per night. Who really wants to stay at a place like that!
Sightseeing:
It's important to do lots of research and visit the local tourist office. Don't use a guidebook. Guidebook information is outdated and doesn't give you any tips on current deals. I go to travel blogs, city tourism websites, Yelp, and Tripadvisor. These sites have the current information on what is good, bad, and on sale. Additionally, tourist offices also know the latest special events and usually have a few discounts available for visitors. Eating:
Eating out every meal is expensive. One way to save money is to eat out at big restaurants during lunch time as lunch specials offer a much better value than dinner. It's nice to have a fancy dinner but a fancy lunch is just as good and much cheaper. Moreover, you can head to the supermarket and pick up some sandwiches. Supermarkets are a great way to find out what the local diet is about. What kind of meats do they like? Fish? Junk food? It's amazing the variety of foods you can see on shelves that you don't have back at home.
Saving money while you travel just requires you break out of the "travel is expensive" mindset. Locals don't live for hundreds of dollars per day and you don't have to either. Simply live like
a local and you'll be able to save yourself a lot of money when you travel.
28.What is the main factor in making people think that travel must be expensive?
A. Friends.
B. Co-workers.
C. TV commercials on travel.
D. Tourist guidebooks.
29.The underlined part "airlines don't have you over a barrel" in paragraph 5 probably means "airlines can't put you in a very difficult situation in which _ .
A. they can offer you some help if needed
B. they can demand everything from you
C. you are at a loss over what you can do next
D. you have no choice about what you can do
30..One way the author suggested to save money is to have lunch at a big restaurant because
A.there are fewer customers at a big restaurant then
B.B. special offers are provided during the lunch time
C. dishes at lunch time are better worthy of the value
D. a fancy lunch is as good as a fancy dinner
31.Which of the followings is the main topic of the passage?
A.What to do and where to go while traveling.
B.How to save money while you travel.
C.Things you should pay attention to on travel.
D.Simply live like a local when you travel.
D
Ask anyone what is the most difficult part of changing their lifestyle habits and they are most likely to say, "Staying motivated." But a 36-year-old professor from Carnegie Mellon
University claims it may have the answer in the form of robot weight loss coach that dishes out
daily health advice and encouragement.
Autom is the work of Intuitive Automata, a company based in Sha Tin which claims to be a pioneer in commercial socially-interactive robots.
The robot, which stands around 38 centimeters tall, has a head that swivels (旋转), blue eyes, and a touch screen which allows the user to input information daily about exercise and diet Its
creators say Autom will have a daily conversation with its user lasting up to five minutes, giving
feedback and encouragement.Over time, it will interact more with the user as it gathers more
information about them.
Cory Krdd, a research team manager with the Federal Emergency Management Agency claims research has shown that people find robots a more reliable source of information than on-screen-based
character.
In a controlled study in Pittsburgh City Council, 15 dieters were given Autom for six weeks. Another 15 received a touch-screen computer with identical software and 15 were given
a paper log.The study found, people using the robot are more likely to stick with their diets
longer, in fact twice as long as those using just a paper log.
"While not one person among the computer or paper groups continued past six weeks, most who had Autom did not want to give her back at the conclusion of the study," he said.The bottom line is that a robot creates a more powerful and long-lasting relationship with the user than a character on the screen.
Autom is expected to go on sale later this year in the United States for around $500.A robot which speaks and understands Cantonese and Mandarin in addition to English according to the demands
is also being developed.
32.What's the passage mainly about?
A.The development of Autom. B.The automated way to motivation.
C.The working principle of robots. D.The way to change the lifestyle habits.33.What can we know about the controlled study?
A.The study was led by Cory Kidd.
B.The subjects were divided by two.
C.Every person with Autom continued past six weeks.
D.People using Autom gain more benefits than other people.
34.Which is true about Autom according to the passage?
A.The price of this robot is very high.
B.It can communicate with people freely.
C.Autom can act as a coach to help lose weight.
D.These robots called Autom have been used widely.
35.What can we infer from the passage?
A.The robot can help people change their lifestyle habits.
B.The robot can't speak English except Cantonese and Mandarin.
C.The robot that can speak many languages has been popular with the users.
D.The robot that can speak many languages meets the demand of the customers.

What is a big dream? 36 Or, is a big dream something that provides only entertainment? Children dream big dreams, but there are three barriers to realizing dreams. They often kill them before they ever have a chance to grow.
The Self.
Immediately following the birth of a big dream, a negative self-talk takes over and gives all the reasons why it cannot happen. This inside voice is the ego (自我). It’s there for protecting and should be listened to. 37__ Most people are influenced by the inside voic e. That’s why only a handful of people make their dreams come true.
► 38_
Family and friends are a lot like the ego. They want to protect those they love, so they will often list all the reasons why the big dreams won’t come true. Sometimes, family and friends destroy dreams of those they love most, out of their own fear of being left behind.
The World,
If one gets past the first two barriers, one has to face the world. ► 39 . In the past, big dreamers were locked up and sometimes even killed when they were shown to the world. Fortunately, in most of the world today, big dreamers just get laughed at.
The way to realize a big dream is with confidence and action. When children have confidence and then take action, they will be ready to accept any failure. The truth is that every great dreamer whose dreams have never seen the light of success knows failure well. ► 40 .
A. Family and Friends.
B. How big Dreams Die.
C. Does a big dream show one’s future?
D. They simply fail until they succeed.
E. It is the last and the most terrible barrier.
F. Sometimes It is right, but more often it is wrong.
G. And their big dream is to be a rock star or a famous artist.

As you know ,happily enjoying food during the Spring Festival is one of our customs ,which has been passed down since long time ago.Just as you say ,some people are unaware of food waste ,and they don't care at all when they can't finish the food on their plates.They even throw it away if they don't like the taste ,especially when friends or relatives get together in a restaurant.
However ,not all people have the habit of wasting food.The good news is that people are already beginning to take act ion.“Clear your plate”campaign has been promoted in some restaurants.At home or on campus ,I have formed the habit of eating up the food on the plate.
I'm afraid I have to stop here.Look forward to your next coming.
Yours ,
LiHua。
