was counting his money in the front of the bank while suddenly a young man came running
and knocked her down. To make things worse, his money was lying in all direction. In no
time the people around rush to pick the money up while the old man stood here, not know
what to do. Surprisingly, everyone gave back the money they had just picked up. The old
man counted the money again and found that not a single bill was missed. To my great joy,

money!

三、阅读理解
21. Can I talk about salary at work? In a word:yes.As HR company Insperity put it in a recent blog post:Can your employees discuss their salaries or wages with their co-workers? Yes.Even if you have a company policy against it? Yes.
The freedom to discuss your salary at work is a protected right under federal labor law.The National Labor Relations Act of 1935 protects your right to discuss the conditions of your employment，including issues related to safety and pay，even when you're not protected by a union.
Talking about salary with colleagues can be uncomfortable，since there's such a taboo about discussing money matters，but it's an important step towards achieving equal pay for equal work.One barrier，however，stems from how we think of our own financial worth.Too many people I talk to wrongly consider their salary a reflection of their worthiness，a statement about their skills，experience，or value.At the end of the day，if we can all separate our self-worth from our salaries a bit more，it'll become easier to talk frankly with our colleagues.
Asking about money outright can be tough，so one trick I've picked up along the way is to ask for your colleagues to confirm or deny.For instance，you might volunteer your salary first and ask“Does that sound about right to you?”by way of comparison.Or，let's say you're interviewing for a promotion to become a manager.You might ask a fellow manager about the kind of salary you should expect by saying，“I'm seeing salaries for this kind of position ranging from $65，000 to$70，000—does that seem accurate to you?”This way，even if your colleague isn't comfortable sharing their salary outright，they can help you identify if your expectations are on point or way off.
32. What makes co-workers uncomfortable to talk about salaries?
A. The safety issue.
B. The federal 1abor law.
C. The wrong idea about salaries.
D. The reflection of their worthiness.
33. What does“taboo”underlined in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. A prohibited practice.
B. A religious belief.
C. A general agreement.
D. A social custom.
34. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 4？
A. One of my interview experiences.
B. My way of asking about money.
C. The method of raising questions.
D. An example of getting promoted.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. How to Discuss Salaries at Work
B. Ways of Talking about Salaries
C. Do Salaries Stand for Self-worth?
D. Can Salaries be Talked about at Work?
参考答案：
32. C 33. A 34. B 35. D

22. This is the age of being busy. Many of us live in busy places and have busy lives. Even the roads are busy as we try to get from here to there. Adults are busy going to jobs and taking care of their families. Kids are busy, too, going to school and doing a lot of homework after school and on weekends.
Busy isn’t bad, necessarily. If you are not busy enough you might be bored. But if you are too busy, you might break down. For example, if you have a soccer game that runs late on a school night and you haven’t eaten dinner or done your homework, that’s a not-so-fun kind of busy. We wanted to know what kids thought, so we did a kidsPoll about being busy with 882girls and boys aged 9 to 13.
Almost all of them said they felt stressed because they were too busy. About half said they felt this way once in a while or some of the time. But 17% said they felt this way mos t of the time and 24% said they felt this all the time! Oh dear, that’s no fun.
Only 4% of kids said they wanted less free time and 18% said they already had just the right amount. But, no big surprise, 61% of kids wish they had a lot more free time. If they had more time, most would spend it hanging out or playing with friends.
Often, adults plan large parts of a kid ’s day, especially during the school year. kids can’t tell their parents they’ll be skipping school(逃学) today to get more free time! But the y can tell their parents they’d like to play a game or read a book during their free time instead of watching TV.
72．The purpose of the first paragraph is to _____.
A. Introduce the topic
B. Support the main idea
C. Raise the topic sentence

73．By giving the example of a late soccer game, the writer intends to tell us______.
A. Being too busy is bad for the kids
B. It is no fun to be busy for the kids
C. Homework should go before game.
D. Being busy may cause the kids to feel bored
74．According to the passage, the KidsPoll is done to carry out research on _____.
A. How kids arrange their free time
B. What kids think of being busy
C. How many kids felt stressed
D. What kids do with their study
75．From the passage, we can infer that the writer agrees kids can_____.
A. Spend their free time hanging or playing out
B. Get a lot more free time from their parents
C. Have a right amount of free time with permission
D. Get more free time from school work sometimes
