【題目】An American shopper, Emma Mumford, who was named “the Coupon(優(yōu)惠券) Queen” has spent just 350 on a luxury(奢侈) Christmas for her and her family—but got 2,500 worth of food, drink and presents thanks to coupons and offers.

Ms Mumford is a so-called “extreme coupon and spends hours hunting out the best deals and bargains. She has been preparing for this Christmas since the end of the last one. Ms Mumford made the huge savings by checking price comparison websites and as a result collected more presents than she needed for Christmas. After sorting out gifts for all of her family, she has even been able to donate 1,000 worth of presents to her local hospital.

“It has been so nice to have Christmas sorted and not having to worry about breaking the bank. I wanted to get high quality presents for my family and show that you can do it without spending a fortune. There is a misunderstanding that everyone who does couponing only gets value products but through my careful shopping I have managed to purchase designer perfumes(香水), a high-end coffee machine .”she explained.

She said “What started as a hobby to help me save money has turned into my life and I am able to run a business helping people save money. I know what it feels like to struggle as my ex-partner had a lot of debt which I took on for him. We were in a poor situation where every penny counted. That’s what really inspired me.”

She has now turned her bargain-huntingspan> addiction into a business where she searches for the best deals and offer tips to the general public through video blogging and her Facebook Page.

“I try and show people that it is just a little bit of work in the beginning but it will eventually pay off. One of the best things to do is just to be a bit forward thinking and save throughout the year.”

【1】How did Emma make the huge savings?

A. She compared prices through websites.

B. She hunted out bargains in real shops.

C. She used coupons and offers worth 2,500.

D. She collected more Christmas presents than needed.

【2】What does “breaking the bank” in the third paragraph mean?

A. Buying presents of low quality.

B. Spending more money than you have.

C. Breaking into the bank.

D. Taking out money from the bank.

【3】What really inspired Emma to help people save money?

A. Her addiction to bargain-hunting.

B. The financial difficulties she shared with her ex-partner.

C. The poor situation people around her were going through.

D. Her experience of running an unsuccessful business.

【4】Which of the following can best describe Emma?

A. Ambitious and stubborn.

B. Sensitive and determined.

D. Careful and caring.

Earth Day at 40: What Good Is It Now?

After 40 years, outsourced activism is replacing traditional Earth Day activities, and green’s gone mainstream, experts say. So what’s the point?

以下是這些報道的簡要內(nèi)容介紹,請配對它們的標題。

【1】Where did this most popular day for couples come from? And how does it come into beings, year after year? Noel Lenski, professor of the University of Colorado, said the lovers’ holiday traces its roots to raucous annual Roman festivals held every year on February 15 and remained wildly popular well into the fifth century A.D.

【2】The first Earth Day in 1970 was a raucous, radical teach-in that helped spur clean-air, clean-water, and endangered species legislation in the United States. Now, 40 years later, Earth Day is every day, as the saying goes. The thing is, it’s also everyday- environmentalism that has become a routine with greenness as much a marketing tactic as a moral pursuit.

【3】 Some 242 million turkeys were raised in the U.S. in 2010 for slaughter, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Agricultural Statistics Service. Last year’s birds were worth about U.S. $3.6 billion. Before the big dinner, debunk the myths, we need to know that the first “real” U.S. Thanksgiving wasn’t until the 1800s and get to the roots of Thanksgiving 2010.

【4】Father’s Day traditionally takes a backseat to Mother’s Day, and, for the most part, dads are cool with that, experts say. Nevertheless, as traditional roles around the house gradually change, fathers are gaining more attention on their special day, at least as measured in the monetary value of gifts estimated to be given on June 19, 2011, when the holiday will be celebrated in dozens of countries.

【5】Cookouts, fireworks, and, of course, a chance to wish Uncle Sam a big “happy birthday” —the day means summer in full swing across the United States and beyond. Besides the founders of the US, Fireworks, first authorized by Congress in 1777, are another legacy. More than 14,000 fireworks displays light up U.S. skies each year.
