He didnt know what to do, with only ten dollars in his pocket, He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy 10 kg tomatoes. .He then sold the tomatoes from door to door. In less than two hours, he succeeded in doubling his capital .He repeated the operation three times, and returned homed happily with 60 dollars.The man realized that he can survive in this way, and started to go every day earlier, and return late , Thus, his money doubled or tripled every day .Shortly, he bought a car ,then a truck ,and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles .

Which proverb can best describe the story?A Misfortune may be an actual blessing B Where there is a will, there is a wayC Accidents will happen D No pains, no gains BMany children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance, The purpose is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly .The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs ,from family to family.At first, young children may spend all of their allowance in no time . If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget ,which demands choices between spending and saving . Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs , like clothing or electronics.But it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home . These jobs are a normal part of family life , Paying children to do extra work around the house , however, can be useful .It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.Allowances give children a chance to experience the things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or giving to a good cause .They can spend it by buying things they want., or they can save and maybe even invest it , Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice; you have to cut costs and plan for the future.Many banks offer services to help children and teenagers lean about personal finance .A savings account is an excellent way to lean about the power of compound interest.Compounding works by paying interest on interest .So, for example, one dollar invested at two percent interest for two years will earn two cents in the first year .The second year, the money will earn to percent of one dollar and two cents, and so on . That may not seem like a lot .But over time ,it adds up.41. Which of the following can be the main idea of the passage?A. Giving children allowances makes good lessons.B.

In addition to improvements in the network of pipes, the government has been upgrading three recycled water plants in the south of the capital, said Zhao Lei, spokesman for the Beijing Municipal Commission of Development and Reform. The transformation of the three plants has increased the recycled water processing capacity by 160,000 cubic meters per day, he said. In addition, the city is also speeding up the construction of sewage treatment plants to further recycle the sewage, Zhao said. Zhang Xiang , a researcher from Nature University, an environmental protection NGO in Beijing, said recycled water use should be promoted, especially in water-scarce cities such as Beijing. Setting up more recycled water plants in the capital will not only promote efficient water use, but also reduce costs because recycling water is much cheaper than transferring it over long distances, he said. According to the Beijing Water Authority, the capital will set up 46 more recycled water plants citywide in the next three years while upgrading 20 sewage treatment plants. The treatment rate of domestic sewage in downtown Beijing will reach 98 percent by the end of 2015, it said. The capitals recycled water is mainly used for industry, landscaping and cleaning, Zhang said. Many new communities in southern Beijing are equipped with a network to recycle water. In the past, people were not enthusiastic about using recycled water. However, as the government has boosted the quality of recycled water and set up more recycled water plants, more residents are gradually accepting it. Residents in southern Beijing will also enjoy more clean energy, as the government will replace traditional coal-burning stoves with electric radiators as part of a three-year plan to develop southern Beijing from 2013 to 2015. Since 2010, Beijing has taken measures to develop its southern areas. Earlier efforts have seen the region, which used to rely heavily on low-end industries such as cement factories and small coal mines, being turned into a bustling commercial center and home to many educational institutions. 46.This passage may appear in _ section. A .business B. life C. politics D. forum 47. which statement is true according to the passage A. Recycled water will be mainly used for drink. B .As usual, recycled water is accepted by people. C. Traditionally people in southern Beijing use coal-burning stove for cooking. D. The water Transferred over long distance is cheaper than recycled water.48. How many recycled water plants will the capital city have in about 3 years? A. 46. B. 20 C.3 D. 4949. What does the last paragraph mainly tell us? A. Southern area in Beijing has taken on a new look. B. The southern area is hone to many educational institutions C. Southern area in Beijing is more beautiful now. D. Southern area in Beijing is a busy place now .50.
