14．Parents have widely different views on the problem of pocket money．Four new fathers were asked this question and this is how they answered．
Ashish Khanna：Although many argue that pocket money helps develop children's sense of value，I don't agree．I wouldn't give my child any pocket money．First of all，I never got pocket money and I seem to have a good value for money．If my child ever needed something and I felt it was a reasonable（合理）request，I would buy it for him．
Sharad Sanghi：No，I wouldn't give my child pocket money because I don't want to create the perception（觀念） of"her"money and"my"money．Besides，if I refuse to buy her something that I think is bad for her，she may buy it with her pocket money on the sly．In this way，I would lose control over my child's requests．I feel it also encourages children to care more about money than anything else．I don't want my child to start judging（評判） other children by the amount of money or pocket money they have．
Rakesh Shah：Yes，I would give my child pocket money．I feel that children should learn to spend money intelligently and not go overboard spending．They will learn what their limitations（限制）are and feel the difficulty when they have to pay for something that is over their own pockets．
Rajiv Patel：Yes，I would give my child pocket money because it is important that she learns to manage money．I will give her a fixed amount every month and if she spends the money before the month is over，then she will learn a lesson and not spend money so freely．
Vikram Desai：Yes，I would certainly give my child pocket money．But I would not give it to him on a weekly or monthly basis．He would have to earn it．If he helped me finish some of my jobs or helped his mother with housework，I would reward him．This helps him realize that"money does not grow on trees"and it requires hard work to earn money．
66．Ashish Khanna may agree thatC．
A．he was given too much pocket money when young
B．he can take much control of his child by money
C．he will buy anything he thinks his child really needs
D．pocket money helps children develop a good value for money
67．The underlined phrase"on the sly"in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to．
A．for free     B．a(chǎn)t a lower price      C．happily      D．secretly
68．What do Rakesh Shah and Rajiv Patel have in common？A
A．They want their children to learn to manage money．
B．They ask their children to get pocket money by working．
C．They teach their children the difficulty of making money．
D．They allow their children to spend money freely．
69．According to Vikram Desai，children's earning money by themselves makes them know thatA．
A．money is not easy to get
B．money can be gotten from the trees
C．one can get lots of money if he/she works hard
D．money is not so important for people nowadays
70．Who would give his child pocket money every month？D
A．Ashish Khanna     B．Sharad Sanghi        C．Rakesh Shah     D．Rajiv Patel．

分析 本文是一篇科教類文章，文章主要介紹了幾位父親對于該孩子零用錢的不同態(tài)度和理由，Ashish Khanna不會給孩子零花錢，當孩子有合理要求時，他會買給孩子；Sharad Sanghi我不會給我的孩子零花錢，因為我不想創(chuàng)建"她"的錢，"我"的錢的觀念；Rakesh Shah會給孩子零花錢，讓孩子學會明智地花錢，不走極端；Vikram Desai會給孩子零花錢，可是我不會定時每周或每月給．

解答 66．答案：C．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第二段最后一句"If my child ever needed something and I felt it was a reasonable（合理）request，I would buy it for him"可知，如果我認為孩子所需要的東西是合理的，我會買給他．故選C．
67．答案：D．推理判斷題．根據(jù)本句"if I refuse to buy her something that I think is bad for her，she may buy it with her pocket money on the sly"可知，如果我不買給他，他會用自己的零用錢偷買，故on the sly指偷偷地．故選D．
68．答案：A．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第四段第二句"I feel that children should learn to spend money intelligently"和第五段第一句"I would give my child pocket money because it is important that she learns to manage money"可知，他們的共同點是想要讓孩子學會理財．故選A．
69．答案：A．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)最后一段最后一句"This helps him realize that"money does not grow on trees"and it requires hard work to earn money．"可知，這幫助孩子意識到掙錢不容易．故選A．
70．答案：D．細節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段第二行"I will give her a fixed amount every month"可知，Rajiv Peter每周給他的孩子零花錢．故選D．

點評 本文是一篇科教類文章，題目涉及多道細節(jié)理解題，推理判斷題，做題時應結(jié)合文章上下文內(nèi)容并根據(jù)所給選項的含義進行分析，從而得出正確答案．切記胡亂猜測，一定要做到有理有據(jù)．

First of all，do things step by step．It is not good to listen to something beyond your level．Better choose a suitable course and start with the first book．Go on to the second book only after you are sure you understand the first one．

Fourthly，if you have time，listen to some interesting stories in some special English programs，such as VOA or other listening materials of the same level as that of your textbook．

9．Have you ever picked a job based on the fact that you were good at it but later found it made you feel very uncomfortable over time？When you select your career，there's a whole lot more to it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position．If you ignore your personality，it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the job's pay．There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job．Here are a few of those main areas；
1）Do you prefer working alone or with other people？
There are isolating（使孤立）jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy．Most people are not extremes in either direction but do have a tendency that they prefer．There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two，which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation．
2）How do you handle change？
Most jobs these days have some elements of change to them，but some are more than others．If you need stability in your life，you may need a job where the changes don't happen so often．Other people would be bored of the same daily routine．
3）Do you enjoy working with computers？
I do see this as a kind of personality characteristic．There are people who are happy to spend more than 40hours a week on a computer，while there are others who need a lot of human interaction throughout the day．Again，these are extremes and you'll likely find a lot of positions somewhere in the middle as well．
4）What type of work environment do you enjoy？
This can range from being in a large building with a lot of people you won't know immediately to a smaller setting where you'll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly．
5）How do you like to get paid？
Some people are motivated by the pay they get，while others feel too stressed to be like that．The variety of payment designs in the sales industry is a typical example for this．
Anyway，these are a great starting point for you．I've seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love．It may take you a little longer，but making a move to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your life for the better．
47．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？B
A．Isolating jobs usually drive people mad．
B．Almost everyone has a tendency in jobs．
C．Interactive jobs make people shy easily．
D．Extreme people tend to work with others．
48．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph one mean？D
A．Before you select your job，you should assess your skills and match them with
your position
B．You should ignore your skills when you select job．
C．Nothing is important than assessing skills and match them with the position
when you select job．
D．There are more important things than assessing skills and match them with the
position when you select job．
49．What is the missing word about a job search in the following chart？C
A．Design．B．Changes．C．Cooperation．D．Hobbies．

50．What is the best title for this passage？C
A．Lifestyles and Job Pay       
B．Jobs and Environment
C．Personalities and Jobs                 
D．Job Skills and Abilities．

3．Health experts are calling for action to expand cancer care and control in the developing world．A medical research paper says cancer was once thought of as a problem mostly in the developed world．But now cancer is a leading cause of death and disability in poor countries as well．Experts from Harvard University and other organizations ask the international community to fight cancer positively，saying it should be fought in the way AIDS has been fought in Africa．
Cancer kills more than 7.5 million people a year worldwide．Almost two-thirds are in low-income and middle-income countries．
They discover cancer kills more people in developing countries than AIDS，tuberculosis （肺結(jié)核） and malaria （瘧疾） combined．But the world spends only 5% of its cancer resources（資源） in those countries．
Felicia Knaul from Harvard Medical School was one of the authors of the paper．She was in Mexico when she was found to have breast（乳腺） cancer．She received treatment there and her experience showed her the sharp difference between the rich and the poor in treating breast cancer．
Felicia Knaul says，"And we are seeing how this is attacking young women．It's the number two cause of death in Mexico for women thirty to fifty-four．All over the developing world，it's the number one cancer-related death among young women．I think we have to again say that there is much more we could do about it than we are doing about it．"
Professor Knalul met community health workers during her work in developing countries．They were an important part of efforts to reduce deaths from the cancer．They were able to persuade people to get tested to prevent the illness．The experts say cancer care does not have to be costly．For example，patients can be treated with lower-cost drugs．
61．What is the passage mainly about？D
A．Cancer-a leading cause of death in poor countries．
B．What should we do in preventing and treating cancer？
C．What makes the first killer in developing countries？
D．Experts ask more efforts to fight cancer in poor countries．
62．Felicia Knaul's experience in Mexico shows thatD．
A．many Mexican women suffer from breast cancer
B．there is not enough medicine for cancer there
C．many Mexican women can't afford medical care
D．patients with breast cancer are treated differently
63．From what Felicia Knaul says，we can draw the conclusion thatA．
A．breast cancer is a great threat to young women
B．people don't pay enough attention to breast cancer
C．breast cancer is the second killer among women in Mexico
D．good treatment for breast cancer has been gained in developing countries
64．Who plays an important part in preventing the cancer in developing countries？C
A．The cancer patients．B．The health experts．
C．Community health workers．D．Young women．
65．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage？C
A．The number of cancer cases is decreasing．
B．AIDS is not being taken seriously in Africa．
C．Over 7.5 million people die of cancer every year．
D．It is very expensive to treat cancer．
