The organizers posted the 36 of a survey showing that only a small percentage of wealthy men believed their wives spent too much. “What? ” 37 one participant. “Those guys have to be lying. ” There is no reliable 38 of who spends more among the rich: men or women. Both will say the other is the 39 spender. A recent survey by Wilmington Trust, Campden Research and Relative Solutions proves the 40 . The companies polled 40 women (I know, that is more like a show of hands than survey), each with a net worth of $25 million or more. About half the respondents(受调查者) inherited(继承) their 41 , a quarter 42 it from their husbands and the other quarter earned it 43 . That is roughly in line with other surveys of 44 women and the source of their money. One interesting note: among the self-made women, 90% got their money from owning a business, rather than 45 a salary. As for 46 , almost all the women (90%) described their spending habits as “below their means”. The report on the survey said that is possibly 47 they do not view their extreme wealth as defining their success. “Women tend not to spend as much as 48 and splash( 洒落) their names all over the place, ” said one woman in the survey, describing her spending as conservative and her lifestyle as “below the radar”. Many women also worried about wealth having 49 effects on their children and didnt want to spend lavishly(挥 霍) to 50 a bad example. At the same time, 70% of the women said they “buy nice things when 51 ”. And 93. 5% of the women said they were responsible for making 52 on major purchases, which 53 that they do a lot of the big spending. Of course, for truly major purchases a house in Aspen, Colo. , a Gulfstream plane, a Feadship yacht the couple probably makes the decision 54 . But what about other 55 ? Do you think men or women do most of the high-end spending? 本文用调查的结果, 说明只有很小一部分富翁认为自己 的太太花钱太多。完成本题要结合现实生活中男女不同的花 钱习惯。 36. A. results B. reasons C. times D. directions 【解析】选A。组织者公布了一项调查的结果(results), 而不 是原因(reasons), 次数(times), 方向(directions)。 37. A. cried B. sighed C. shouted D. laughed 【解析】选C。有钱, 但不显摆没人相信, 故一位与会人士大 叫道(shout)：什么？那些家伙肯定在说谎。哭叫(cried), 叹息 (sighed), 大笑(laughed), 都不足以说明他的惊讶。 38. A. data B. measure C. division D. news 【解析】选B。目前还没有可靠的方法(measure)来评断富人 堆里谁花钱更多：是男性还是女性。数据(data), 分离 (division), 新闻(news)都不合句意。 39. A. biggest B. bigger C. smaller D. worse 【解析】选B。双方都会说对方是个较大的(bigger)花钱者。 就两类人没法表示最大的(biggest), 较少的(smaller)不符合常 识, 较坏的(worse)就更没道理了。 40. A. matter B. message C. point D. report 【解析】选C。由Wilmington Trust, Campden Research和 Relative Solutions最近联手进行的一项调查证明了上述观点 (point)。物质(matter), 信息(message), 报道(report)不符合题 意。 41. A. spirit B. money C. habit D. cost 【解析】选B。约有一半的被调查者的财产(money)是继承而 来, 全文都说的是钱, 而不是精神(spirit), 习惯(habit), 成本 (cost)。 42. A. bought B. robbed C. got D. earned 【解析】选C。四分之一得(get)自丈夫, 剩下的四分之一是自 己赚的。根本不是买来的(buy), 更不是抢来的(rob), 后面才 说的是自己挣来的(earn)。 43. A. itself B. herself C. ourselves D. themselves 【解析】选D。剩下的四分之一是自己(是多个受调查者当然 用themselves)赚的, 而不能用它自己(itself), 她自己(herself), 我们自己(ourselves)。 44. A. wealthy B. poor C. ordinary D. honest 【解析】选A。这与我们对富有(wealthy)女性及其财富来源 的调查基本相符。全是对有钱人的调查, 而不是穷人(poor), 普通人(ordinary), 和诚实的人(honest)。 45. A. making B. earning C. taking D. spending 【解析】选B。90%是自己当老板开公司赚的, 而不是靠挣 (earn)工资得来的。不可能是开(make)工资, 带走(take)工资, 花(spend)工资就更不对了。 46. A. buying B. wasting C. spending D. saving 【解析】选C。至于支出(spend), 几乎所有女性(90%)都说自 己的支出习惯是量入为出。前文说的是挣钱, 这儿是说花钱, 而不是买(buy), 浪费(waste), 节约(save)。 47. A. when B. if C. whether D. because 【解析】选D。调查报告中说, 这可能是因为(because)她们并 不认为自己的极大财富就是成功的全部意义所在。当时 候(when), 如果(if), 是否(whether), 明显不适合这儿的语意。 48. A. women B. youths C. adults D. men 【解析】选D。女性往往没有男性(men)花钱多, 也不会四处 宣扬自己。全文都是拿男女相比, 并不是女的和女的 (women), 年轻人(youth), 还有成年人(adults)比。 49. A. serious B. good C. bad D. various 【解析】选C。很多女性也担心财富会对孩子造成不良(bad) 影响, 而不是严肃的(serious), 好的(good), 各种各样的 (various)影响。 50. A. send B. set C. do D. give 【解析】选B。所以不希望乱花钱, 以免给孩子树立坏榜样 (set an example是固定短语)。送(send), 做(do), 给(give)都不 和an example搭配构成这个意思的短语。 51. A. necessary B. possible C. pleased D. anxious 【解析】选A。与此同时, 70%的女性说, 她们会在必要的 (necessary)时候买好东西, 而不是可能的(possible)时候, 高兴 的(pleased)时候, 焦急的(anxious)时候。 52. A. plans B. decisions C. appointments D. suggestions 【解析】选B。有93. 5%的女性说, 买大件的主意(即是决定 decisions)都是由她们决定, 计划(plans), 指定(appointments), 建议(suggestions)都没有用这个更合理, 因为是花钱购置东西, 是一个行动的结果。 53. A. notices B. stresses C. implies D. intends 【解析】选C。这暗示(imply)她们经常花钱买大件。并没有 直接这样说, 故不是注意到(notice), 强调说(stress), 打算 (intend)之意。 54. A. away B. together C. as well D. out 【解析】选B。当然, 对于真正的大件比如在科罗拉多州 买座房子, 一架湾流(Gulfstream)私人飞机, 一艘Feadship游 艇, 夫妇两人可能会一起(together)作决定, 根本不是远处 (away), 也一样(as well), 出去(out)之意。 55. A. purchases B. effects C. differences D. examples 【解析】选A。不过买其他东西的时候呢？你认为是男性还 是女性的高端花销更多？影响(effects), 不同(differences), 例 子(examples)不符合逻辑。 第三部分 阅读理解(共20小题; 每小题2分, 满分40分) (A) One day I was walking in a forest when I was suddenly attacked by a butterfly many times beside a pool. I was puzzled about it, laughing, and found it very funny. I stopped laughing when my attacker rushed at me again. He struck me in the chest with his head and body over and over again with all his strength. This time, though, I stepped back several paces to look the situation over. My attacker moved back as well to land on the ground. He had a mate and she was dying on the ground. Sitting close beside her, he opened and closed his wings as if to fan her. I could only admire the love and courage of that butterfly in his concern for his mate, even though she was clearly dying and I was so large. He did so just to give her those extra few precious moments of life so that I should have been careless enough to step on her. Now I knew why and what he was fighting for. So I carefully made my way around the pool to the other side of the path, though it was only inches wide and extremely muddy. His courage in attacking something thousands of times larger and heavier than himself just for his mates safety justified it . I couldnt do anything other than reward him by walking on the more difficult side of the pool. He had truly earned those moments to be with her, undisturbed. Since then, Ive always tried to remember the courage of that butterfly whenever I see huge obstacles facing me. I use that butterflys courage as an inspiration and to remind myself that good things are worth fighting for. 一只雄蝴蝶为了避免自己的伴侣的尸体被作者不小心踩 上, 不惜用自己的身体和性命去挑战比自己强大几千倍的敌 人, 而作者被雄蝴蝶为爱献身的精神所感动, 决定绕路而行, 并在以后的生活中把蝴蝶的勇气作为激励自己的力量, 去争 取值得为之奋斗的美好的事物。 56.

Lose weight. We make the same resolutions(决心) every year, but most of us fail, dying out after only a few days or , at best, weeks. Even the most successful among us crash and burn when it comes to personal change. President-elect Barack Obama struggles to remove his cigarette habit. Professionals who help people make changes in their lives suggest the change is determined not by ones surroundings, but ones mind. Beginning with small goals or steps usually leads to a bigger payoff later, they say. But they caution that the experience is different for everyone. “People are more likely to make positive changes in their lives not only when their friends do, but when their friends of friends do, and when their friends of friends of friends do, ” said Nicholas Christakis, a professor of medical sociology at Harvard University. “People are better able to make changes in their liveslose weight, quit smoking, become happy when they do this with a large number of other people, and so taking advantage of your social network ties can result in a magnification of your own efforts. ” Jhonny Augustin understands that well. His resolution for 2008 was to shed 30 pounds from his 237-pound frame. But the change didnt come easily. He said, “Im a huge procrastinator, I kept putting it off until tomorrow. I didnt get to do it until the summer. ” However, Augustin got inspired when he saw his older brother working out. Today, Augustin weighs 190 pounds. “Of course, change can happen only if people dont set their expectations too high or try to tackle too many changes at once; one of the biggest mistakes we make is setting unrealistic goals, ”said Dalia Liera, a psychologist and associate professor of counseling and psychology at Lesley University. “You cant accomplish in a few weeks what you havent accomplished in a few years, ” said Liera. 你想做出改变吗？请关注文章中的方法。 60.
