Not long ago, British entrepreneur(企業(yè)家) Richard Branson announced that he had bought an island off the coast of Australia for all his 30,000 staff and their families to use. For employees of his company, this must be one of the most attractive perks(額外待遇) of the job! Most company perks are more practical than this, but they do appear to be an increasingly important consideration when choosing a job. Typical of these perks are reductions in the price of lunch or company goods, childcare services and investments(投資) in the company.

Last year he announced that all staff could take the day off on their birthday, as well as leave early on Fridays in the summer. He also gives staff a choice of benefits. These include the chance to work at home sometimes, extra leave after a child is born, and a day's holiday without notice in advance.

After almost an entire year of not going shopping and vacationing, you find the numbers reflected by your bank account meet your heart's desire.
Now the most important question comes, what to do with the earnings? Should you fulfill dreams of the present, invest in preserving the future or perhaps keep saving it for a rainy day?
Our elders always try to teach us the value of money and its moral weakness. One may be on a winning streak(連續(xù)成功) now, but it will not always be so. One will have days when there will be no sunshine but only rain. and their luck will hide behind those thick grey clouds. Save for those rainy days,they say.Do not spend too much,live within a budget,refrain from credit no matter how small and save for the future.
Since the very first time we earn our own money from a summer job or earning our first salary, the lessons start. In fact, the pocket money that we receive when we are children begins the process of learning how to best manage one's money.
People often think like this-one day when I have enough money, I will travel the world. Then, once we do earn enough money, tomorrow's plans start shadowing our present ones. However, is it wise to keep living for that future? Will we still enjoy or even be able to backpack in -our 50s? How will we ever enjoy our present if we are constantly living for the future?
Good questions, aren't they? 1 say travel but don' t let yourself run dry, treat yourself to some luxuries but also keep enough for your necessities, and enjoy your present but with a plan for the foreseeable future.Life is for the living. so live it sensibly.

A famous teacher was speaking to the students at our school. He began his lesson by holding up a £100 bill. Then he said to the three hundred students, “Who would like to have this £100 bill?” The students began to put up their hands at once.
Then he said, “I am going to give this bill to one of you, but first, let me do this.” He then made this bill into a ball. Then he said, “Who wants it?” Hands went into the air.
“Well,” he said, “What if I do this?” and he dropped it on the floor and stepped(踩) on it. He picked up the dirty, crumpled(弄皺) bill and said, “Who still wants it?” Hands went back into the air.
“My friends,” he said, “You’ve learned a valued lesson today. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it didn’t go down in value. It was still worth £100.”
Many times in our lives, we’re dropped, crumpled, and stepped on by the chances we take and the things that happen to us. We feel as if we are worth nothing. But remember, no matter what has happened to you, you will never lose your value: you are always valuable to those who love you. Your value doesn’t come from what you drop or whom you know, but WHO YOU ARE .
You are special and valuable. Don’t ever forget it!

Part 3 讀后續(xù)寫
閱讀下面材料,根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段,使之構成一篇完整的短文。
Having been teaching anthropology (人類學) at Dartmouth College for 15 years, I still remember the day when I first encountered the book Margaret Mead’s Coming of Age in Samoa, a very important book on the study of the social and cultural development of peoples.
When I was fourteen, I earned money in the summer by cutting lawns, and within a few weeks I had built up a body of customers. I got to know people by the flowers they planted, by the things they lost in the grass or stuck in the ground on purpose. I learned something about the measure of my neighbors by their preferred method of payment: by the job, by the month—or not at all.
Mr. Ballou fell into the last category, and he always had a reason why. On one day, he had no change for a fifty, on another he was simply out when I knocked on his door. Still, except for the money, he was a nice enough old guy, always waving his hat when he’d seen me from a distance. Sure, I kept track of the total, but I didn’t worry about the amount too much.
Then, one late afternoon in mid-July, the hottest time of the year, I was walking by his house and he opened the door, mentioned me to come inside. The hall was cool, shaded, and it took my eyes a minute to adjust to the dim light.
“I owe you,” Mr. Ballou, “but...”
I thought I’d save him the trouble of thinking of a new excuse. “No problem. Don’t worry about it.”
“The bank made a mistake in my account,” he continued, ignoring my words. “It will be cleared up in a day or two. But in the meantime I thought perhaps you could choose one or two volumes for a down payment.”
He gestured toward the walls and I saw that books were stacked (堆放) everywhere. It was like a library, except with no order to the arrangement.
注意:
1. 續(xù)寫詞數應為150左右;2. 請按如下格式在答題卡的相應位置作答。
Mr. Ballou encouraged me to read, borrow or keep the books I like.

To this day, thirty years later, I clearly remember this experience.

這是一篇說明文。文章主要以英國企業(yè)家Richard Branson給員工不尋常的福利為例子,介紹了公司給員工的各種不同的福利,但研究表明,減少工作時間是員工最看重的福利。
【詳解】
1.推理判斷題。根據第一段“Not long ago, British entrepreneur(企業(yè)家) Richard Branson announced that he had bought an island off the coast of Australia for all his 30,000 staff and their families to use. For employees of his company, this must be one of the most attractive perks(額外待遇) of the job!”(不久前,英國企業(yè)家Richard Branson宣布,他在澳大利亞海岸買下了一座島嶼,供3萬名員工及其家人使用。對于他公司的員工來說,這一定是這份工作最有吸引力的福利之一!)可知,文章第一段提到Richard Branson,是為了舉例子說明Richard Branson給員工不尋常的福利,所以選項D“To give an example of unusual company benefits.”(舉個例子來說明公司不尋常的福利。)符合,故選D。
2.推理判斷題。根據第二段“Most company perks are more practical than this, but they do appear to be an increasingly important consideration when choosing a job. Typical of these perks are reductions in the price of lunch or company goods, childcare services and investments(投資) in the company. Particularly popular with employees is membership of a health club and private health care. However, the appeal of perks such as cars, laptops or mobiles is declining. Material possessions are not the most important consideration these days.”(大多數公司的津貼都比這個更實際,但是在選擇工作時,這些津貼似乎是一個越來越重要的考慮因素。這些福利的典型特征是降低午餐或公司商品的價格、提供兒童保育服務和公司投資。尤其受員工歡迎的是健身俱樂部會員和私人醫(yī)療保健。然而,汽車、筆記本電腦或手機等福利的吸引力正在下降?,F在物質財富不是最重要的考慮因素。)可知,第二段主要介紹了現在公司給員工的具體福利。所以可以推斷出,第二段是通過陳述現在的情況來展開的,故選B。
3.細節(jié)理解題。根據第三段“Survey show that pay isn't the be-all and end-all once a person is settled in a job. Job satisfaction and personal achievement were named of managers recently.”(調查顯示,一個人一旦安定下來,薪水并不是最重要的。工作滿意度和個人成就是近年人們看重的。)可知,一旦一個人工作穩(wěn)定了,薪水并不是最重要的,而工作滿意度是比較重要的。所以可知,第三段提到的研究表明,工作滿意度被認為比金錢更重要,故選D。
4.觀點態(tài)度題。根據第四段“He also gives staff a choice of benefits.”(他還給員工提供福利選擇。)可知,Richard Prior給員工提供福利選擇,所以可推知,他對給員工提供福利的態(tài)度是贊成的,C選項favorable(贊成的)符合,故選C。
5.細節(jié)理解題。根據最后一段“Recent research has found the twice as many UK professional would rather work fewer hours than win financial rewards(報酬). Being able to choose when they work and what perks are most proper allows employees to balance work and home life. It's fast becoming the number one perk.”(最近的研究發(fā)現,在英國專業(yè)人士中,寧愿減少工作時間的人數,是愿意贏得經濟獎勵的人數的兩倍。能夠選擇什么時候工作,且能夠選擇最合適的津貼,這可以使員工去平衡工作和家庭生活。這很快就會成為最重要的福利。)可知,員工最看重的福利是更少的工作時間,故選C。

【分析】
這是一篇議論文。文章主要討論存錢的重要性及如何生活。
36.
細節(jié)理解題。根據第三段“One will have days when there will be no sunshine but only rain, and their luck will hide behind those thick grey clouds. Save for those rainy days, they say.(人將會度過那些沒有陽光但是只有雨的日子,他們的幸運會隱藏在那些厚厚的灰云后面。他們說:要為了那些陰雨的日子存錢。)”可知,長輩們教我們存錢是因為人生不總是陽光明媚和幸運的,這些好日子可能會有結束的時候,故選C項。
37.
詞義猜測題。根據第三段“Do not spend too much, live within a budget,?refrain from?credit no matter how small and save for the future.(不要花太多,生活要有預算。無論多小都要refrain from貸款并且要為將來而存錢。)”可知,作者想告誡我們要為將來而存錢,生活要有預算,花錢需節(jié)制。不論貸款的金額有多小都要節(jié)制。所以推測refrain from意為“節(jié)制,控制”,故選B項。
38.
推理判斷題。根據最后一段第二句“I say travel but don' t let yourself run dry, treat yourself to some luxuries but also keep enough for your necessities, and enjoy your present but with a plan for the foreseeable future(要我說,可以旅游但是別把錢花完,偶爾買買奢侈品但也要給必需品留些錢,享受當下但對可見的未來也要有打算)”可知,這正是作者想要傳達的理念,錢該花還是要花的,不能只想著為以后攢著,與A選項“我們應該在正確的時間享受一下”相符。故選A項。
39.
主旨大意題??傆[全文,作者首先拋出了傳統的存錢觀念,并對此提出了質疑,在最后一段表達了自己的觀點“enjoy your present but with a plan for the foreseeable future”即未來攢錢的同時更要好好享受當下,D選項“聰明地活好當下的日子”符合文章主題。故選D項。

這是一篇夾敘夾議文。主要講述了一個老師通過一張100英鎊的鈔票的故事,來告訴學生要珍惜自己,因為我們的價值在珍愛我們的人眼里永遠不變。
40.

41.
細節(jié)理解題。根據第三段“He picked up the dirty, crumpled(弄皺) bill and said, ‘Who still wants it? ’ Hands went back into the air.

It was still worth £100’(‘我的朋友們,’他說,‘你們今天學到了寶貴的一課。不管我對錢做了什么,你還是想要它,因為它沒有貶值。它仍然值£100’)”可知,這張100英鎊的鈔票盡管臟了,但是它的價值并沒有變;選項C意為“沒有貶值”,與原文相符。故選C項。
42.
詞句猜測題。根據第二段“Then he said, ‘Who wants it?’ Hands went into the air.( 然后他說,‘誰想要它?’同學們都舉起了手)”,第三段“He picked up the dirty, crumpled(弄皺) bill and said, ‘Who still wants it?’.(他撿起那張臟兮兮、皺巴巴的鈔票,說:‘誰還想要它?’)”,以及第四段“‘My friends,’‘he said, “You’ve learned a valued lesson today. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it didn’t go down in value. It was still worth £100’(‘我的朋友們,’他說,‘你們今天學到了寶貴的一課。不管我對錢做了什么,你還是想要它,因為它沒有貶值。它仍然值得£100’)”中的“you still wanted it (你仍然想要它)”可知,這張100英鎊的鈔票盡管臟了,但是它的價值不變,所以在老師再次詢問誰想要的時候,學生們還是再次舉起了手,表示自己想要;選項A意為“學生們再次舉起了手”,與原文相符。故選A項。
43.
推理判斷題。根據第四段“‘My friends,’ he said, ‘You’ve learned a valued lesson today. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it didn’t go down in value. It was still worth £100’(‘我的朋友們,’他說,‘你們今天學到了寶貴的一課。不管我對錢做了什么,你還是想要它,因為它沒有貶值。它仍然值£100’)”和最后一段“But remember, no matter what has happened to you, you will never lose your value: you are always valuable to those who love you. Your value doesn’t come from what you drop or whom you know, but WHO YOU ARE .(但請記住,無論發(fā)生了什么,你永遠不會失去你的價值:你對愛你的人總是有價值的。你的價值不是來自你放棄了什么或者你認識誰,而是來自你是誰。)”可推知,這個老師想要教會學生們價值是什么;選項D意為“因為他想讓學生們知道價值是什么”,與原文相符。故選D項。
Part 3 讀后續(xù)寫
Paragraph 1:
Mr. Ballou encouraged me to read, borrow or keep the books I like. Facing so many books for the first time, I had no idea which one to choose. Nice enough, he searched for me and handed a fairly thick book and asked me to tell him what the book was about the next week. It was my first encounter with world literature, and I was so impressed by the power a novel could contain and absorbed in reading all those vivid characters and the elegant, simple language.
Paragraph 2:
To this day, thirty years later, I clearly remember this experience. Now I am a teacher teaching anthropology at college. For that year, Mr. Ballou never paid me some money for cutting his lawns but led me to the road that is far more valuable than money. A book, if it arrives before you at the right moment, in the proper season, will change the course of all your life.
【分析】
本文是記敘文。文章主要講述了作者對于第一次讀到瑪格麗特·米德的《薩摩亞人的成長》這本書的回憶。十四歲那年,作者在夏天靠修剪草坪賺錢,Mr. Ballou是作者的顧客之一,由于資金問題,一直欠著作者修剪草坪的錢。一天,Mr. Ballou邀請作者進入自己家中,對于欠錢有所尷尬的他希望作者能夠在自己很多書籍中選一兩本書作為首付。Mr. Ballou幫助作者選了一本書,這是作者第一次接觸世界文學,同時也被深深的吸引。在那一年里,Mr. Ballou從來沒有給過修剪草坪的錢,而是帶領作者走上了一條遠比錢值錢的路。
【詳解】
1.段落續(xù)寫:
①由第一段首句內容“Mr. Ballou encouraged me to read, borrow or keep the books I like.(Mr. Ballou鼓勵我讀、借或保存我喜歡的書。)”可知,第一段可描寫作者面對如此多的書無從選擇,在Mr. Ballou的幫助之下,讀到了第一本關于世界文學的書,而被深深吸引。
②由第二段首句內容“To this day, thirty years later, I clearly remember this experience.(三十年后的今天,我仍然清楚地記得這段經歷。)”可知,第二段可描寫這段經歷對于作者的影響和感受。
2.續(xù)寫線索:自己選書的為難——Mr. Ballou幫助選書——第一次讀書的感受——經歷對作者的影響——感悟
3.詞匯激活

【點睛】
[高分句型1]. It was my first encounter with world literature, and I was so impressed by the power a novel could contain and absorbed in reading all those vivid characters and the elegant, simple language.(由并列連詞and連接兩個分句;“a novel could contain”為之前名詞“the power”的定語從句,先行詞在從句中作動詞“contain”的賓語,因此關系詞that/which被省略)
[高分句型2]. A book, if it arrives before you at the right moment, in the proper season, will change the course of all your life.(由if引導條件狀語從句)
