Tuesday.The survey，published by the Bank of America，studied the rich with $3 million or more in assets.It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have welldeveloped plans to preserve and pass on their assets to their children”The majority of the 457 people surveyed are selfmade，firstgeneration rich.Fiftytwo percent of parents have chosen not to tell their children just how wealthy they are，and 15 percent have given away nothing about the family wealth.One in three parents said they had never thought to do it.They are worried that their children would become lazy，spend money freely，make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.Only 34 percent strongly agreed that their children would be able to handle any inheritance (遗产) they plan to leave them.“There is an expectation about the wealthy parents that they have a responsibility to pass down their fortune to the next generation，” said Sallie Krawcheck，president of the Global Wealth and Investment Management of the Bank of America.“Our research，however，uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”The trend is led by the worlds richest man Bill Gates，who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife，the Bill and Malinda Gates Foundation (基金会)，and not to his children.“We want to give it back to society in the way that it will have the most positive impact，” he said.Of his plans for his children，Gates said：“I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage.they will need to work but they will feel reasonably taken care of.”【语篇解读】调查表明，大部分美国富人不愿向孩子炫富，甚至不打算将丰厚的资产传给后代。5We can learn from the passage that_.Arich parents may not know how to manage their inheritanceBrich parents dont equal rich kids，at least in the USCAmerican children dont get to inherit their parents wealthDpoor children dont expect themselves to be as rich as their parents解析推理判断题。第二段的后半部分提到在被调查的美国富人中，几乎没有人计划为他们的孩子保留资产或者将资产传给孩子，由此可推断在美国，父母富有并不意味着孩子富有。答案B6According to the survey，most rich Americans_.Athink they owe their children nothingBthink it best to give their money back to societyCdoubt their childrens ability to handle wealthDare confident of their childrens ability to handle wealth解析推理判断题。根据第四段内容可推知，大部分美国富人怀疑他们的孩子处理财富的能力。答案C7The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 6 refers to_.Aresponsible childrenBBill Gates and his wifeCfirstgeneration richDrich parents解析猜测词义题。人们期望富裕的父母把他们的财富传给下一代，此处they指代的是画线词前面的“the wealthy parents”，即“rich parents”。答案D8From the last paragraph，we can see that Bill Gates wants to show_.Athe trend of leaving no inheritance to childrenBthe positive impact of charity on societyCthe way of giving back to societyDthe importance of independence for children 解析推理判断题。根据本段中比尔盖茨所说的话可推知，他更强调孩子的个人奋斗，认为培养孩子的自立很重要。答案D【2015高考复习】阅读理解As more Americans go to mainland China to take jobs，more Chinese and Americans are working side by side.These crosscultural partnerships，while beneficial in many ways，are also highlighting tensions that expose differences in work experience，pay levels and communication.In the last few years，a growing number of Americans in their 20s and 30s have been heading to China for employment，attracted by its fastergrowing economy and lower jobless rate.Their Chinese coworkers are often around the same age.But the two groups were raised differently.The Americans have had more exposure to freemarket principles.“Young Americans were brought up in a commercial environment，”said Neng Zhao,28，a senior associate at Blue Oak Capital，a private firm based in Beijing.“We werent.So the workplace is a unique learning process for my generation.”Managers hiring workers in China appear to be paying for Western experience.Foreigners tend to earn 10 to 15 percent more than their Chinese counterparts，said Michael Norman，senior vice president as Sibson Consulting，an American firm.That imbalance does not go unnoticed by Chinese workers.“There is definitely the belief that Americans get paid more for the same work，”said Ting Wang,25，an associate at Wild China，a travel company based in Beijing.On the other hand，Chinese workers have a deeper understanding of the influences，like Confucianism and Communism，which play a part in their countrys culture and economy.It is important and necessary for Americans working in China to adjust，said Mr.Norman，who works on management and work force issues for multinational companies o
