expression（表达） is “in the red”. it is another way of saying that a business is losing money. in the past, numbers in the financial (金融的) records of a company were written in red ink to show a loss (损失).a business magazine recently published a report about a television company. the report said the company was still in the red, but was able to cut its loss from the year before. a profit by a business is written in black numbers. so a company that is “in the black” is making money. another financial expression is “run on the bank”. that is what happens when many people try to get all their money back from a bank. a “run on the bank” usually happens when people believe there is a danger that a bank may fail or close down. newspaper reports about a bank crisis (危机) in russia used that expression. they said the government acted because of the fear that the crisis would cause a run on the bank. “day trading” is a new expression about a system that lets investors (投资者) trade directly in an electronic market system. the system is known as nasdaq, short for the national association of securities dealers automated quotation. it was the first completely computerized stock market (股票市场). day trading companies offer a desk and a computer system to an investor who wants to trade. investors must provide fifty thousand dollars or more for the trading company to pay for the stocks they buy. thousands of other investors do day trading at their homes.a day trader keeps a watchful eye on stock prices. when he sees a stock rise in price, he makes use of the computer to buy shares of the stock. if the stock continues to rise in price in the next few minutes, the day trader sells out the shares quickly to make a small profit. then he looks for another stock to buy. if a stock goes down, he may sell his shares and accept the loss.the idea is to make a small profit many times during the day. many day traders may break down in a week or so. only about thirty percent people succeed in earning enough money from their efforts to continue day trading.21*cnjy*com21. what does the passage mainly talk about?( )a. some financial words and expressions.b. newspaper reports about a bank crisis.c. some interesting stories about making money.d. some tips on how to buy and sell stocks.22. when a company runs well, the financial records will be written in ink.( )a. redb. blackc. greend. yellow23. when a bank is faced with a crisis, we can use the expression “”.( )a. break the bankb. run on the bankc. in the redd. day trading24. in which section of a newspaper will this passage appear?( )a. economy（经济）. b. health & life.c. entertainment（娱乐）. d. science. b a medical study has shown that excess(过度的)coffee drinking could cause heart attacks in people who do not metabolize(使新陈代谢)caffeine fast enough.【21cnj*y.co*m】the study，published recently in the journal of the american medical association，says an enzyme(酶)that metabolizes caffeine in the liver works differently in some people，depending on the makeup of the gene.individuals who have a slow version (版本)of the enzyme are at a greater risk(风险)of a heart attack when they drink more coffee.the risk had something to do with a persons age and how many cups of coffee he drinks. the team from the university of toronto in canada studied 4,024 people living in coffeerich costa rica between 1994 and 2004，of whom half suffered nonfatal(非致命的)heart attacks.they found slightly more than half had the slow version of the gene，while the rest had the fast form.two to three cups of coffee a day increased the possibilities of a heart attack by 36 percent for those with the slowacting gene and four or more cups a day lifted it by 64 percent.but those under 50 who had the fast version of the gene had a lower risk of heart disease，even with four or more cups a day.those with the fastacting gene who drank two to three cups of coffee a day had 22 percent reduced possibilities of having a heart attack，but drinking four or more cups a day only lessened the risk by 1 percent.scientists recommend（建议） limiting coffee consumption(消耗量)to within four cups a day.25people who have a slow version of the enzyme_.( ) aare in danger when they drink coffee bare living in coffeerich costa rica chave the slow version of the gene dcan not drink four or more cups of coffee a day26the example of costa rica the author presented in the passage proves that_.( )athe heart attack in costa rica is really serious bthe heart problem has something to do with drinking coffeecpeople in costa rica cannot metabolize caffeine in the liver dmore than half people have the slow version of gene27it can be concluded that the passage is most probably written for_.( )adoctors who study heart disease bspecialists who offer medical carecold people who have the slow version of the gene dthose who love drinking coffee every day28what is the best title for this passage?( )acoffee and heart attacks bgene and heart disease ccaffeine and enzyme dreasons for heart problems cthe owner of a large company，who was about to take a trip overseas，dropped into his office early in the morning to make some arrangementshe was telephoning for a ticket for his trip when the night watchman came in，who was back from work，and said“good morning”to the ownerthen he told him that he had dreamed that very night

by holding up a $20 bill. in the room of 200, he asked, who would like this $20 bill? hands started going up. he said, i am going to give this $20 to one of you, but first, let me do this. he began to crumple(弄皱) the 20 dollar note up. he then asked, who still wants it? still the hands were up in the air. well, he replied, what if i do this? he dropped it on the ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. he picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. now, who still wants it? still the hands went into the air. my friends, you have all learned a very valuable lesson.no matter what i did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in value. it was still worth $20. many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into the dirt by the decisions we make
