12.Many people admit that they aren't prepared financially for life's unexpected challenges and emergencies.If your New Year's decision is to become more financially prepared for a"rainy day"the following tips are helpful for you to save,
*Start saving now.
Set specific savings goals and break them down to a set dollar amount to save each paycheck.(36)DSave at least a small portion of each paycheck and remain committed to saving,and then look for ways each month to increase the amount.
*(37)AOne of the simplest ways to find money to put toward your rainy day fund is to keep a close eye on where your money is being spent.For two or three months,try keeping track of every expense,including small ones.Once you have a better idea of where your money is going,make a budget that includes a spending and savings plan.(38)F
*Make saving automatic.
(39)EIf your goal is to save﹩5,000this year,calculate the amount you'll need to save from each paycheck,then arrange to have it automatically saved into your savings account each time you get paid.Visit your bank branch and ask a banker if you can set up automatic transfers into your savings account.
*Go on a spending diet.
Avoid spending any money on non-essentials for 30days and challenge yourself to save as much as you can to put toward your rainy day fund.(40)GThen make a list and determine not to spend on these items for one month,

A.Track your spending.
B.Put your savings to work.
C.Do remember:Actions always speak louder than words.
D.The important thing is to start saving now,no matter how little.
E.Treat your rainy day account like you'd treat any other financial obligation(債務(wù)).
F.Review your budget at the end of every month and determine if your spending is in line with your plan.
G.Review your budget and identify extra or unnecessary expenses,such as eating out,shopping,entertainment,etc.

分析 本文為社會生活類說明文,文章說明每個人都應(yīng)該存錢以備不時之需;就如何做到這一點作者提出了自己的建議:一、立刻動手,設(shè)定存款目標(biāo)并分解到每一次薪水中;二、跟蹤支出,關(guān)注每一筆錢用到哪里;三、使存錢像其它債務(wù)一樣成為必然要做的事;四、節(jié)約一切不必要的開支.

解答 36.答案是D.細(xì)節(jié)推斷題;由本段主題"Start saving now立刻開始存錢"和下文的"Save at least a small portion of each paycheck 每次薪水至少存一小部分"推斷,答案是D.
37.答案是A.主旨大意題;由下文的關(guān)鍵詞"try keeping track of every expense盡力跟蹤每一筆開支"推斷作者建議"跟蹤記錄開支",故選A.
38.答案是F.細(xì)節(jié)推斷題;由上文"make a budget that includes a spending and savings plan"可知,作者建議做預(yù)算,預(yù)算中包括開支和儲存計劃;由此推斷下文作者建議"月底回顧開支和儲存與預(yù)期的是否一致",故選F.
39.答案是E.細(xì)節(jié)推斷題;本題的主要闡述的觀點是"Make saving automatic使存錢成為必須做的事",下文對這個論點進(jìn)一步展開說明--把存錢看做還債一樣"必須做",故選E.
40.答案是G.細(xì)節(jié)推斷題;由上文中"Avoid spending any money on non-essentials 避免在任何非必需品上的支出"推斷,作者建議查看預(yù)算中"unnecessary expense不必要的支出",故選G.

點評 本文是說明文,題目要求從7個選項中選擇恰當(dāng)?shù)恼Z句填入空格處.這種類型的題目關(guān)鍵是符合邏輯和語境,要強調(diào)從上下文中尋找具體的解題依據(jù).

20.Ways to Improve Your Luck
Some people have all the luck!Or does it just seem that way?Why did your co-worker get that big promotion while you were overlooked?Why do some of us seem to experience these lucky things more than others and how can you improve your luck?(16)D
What You Tell Yourself Matters!
Do you know that people who are lucky tell themselves they're lucky?Has your own self-talk been filled with less-than-lucky talk?Do you say things like:"I'm just not a lucky person."or"Good things never happen to me?"(17)C They say things like---"This setback is only temporary.I know things will turn around."or"Things have a way of working out for me."
Expect and Acknowledge Your Good Luck.
(18)G Research suggests keeping a"good luck journal"helps people become even luckier.Did someone bring you coffee at work today?Did you find a random quarter on the street?Did your husband or wife do something nice for you today?Did your child get a good grade at school?Write them down!(19)A Begin to notice all the good that comes to you.
Do Something New and Different.
Make contact with people.Take risks.People who try new things are much more open to luck and good fortune than those who don't.This doesn't mean you have to quit your job or take up skydiving!It could be as simple as starting a conversation with a stranger,taking a class in an unfamiliar subject,learning some words and phrases in a foreign language,or trying a new ethnic restaurant.(20)F And this greater openness can help promote chance opportunities in their lives.

A.All of these things count.
B.You will never forget your lucky friends.
C.Lucky people generally expect good fortune.
D.Here are ideas that researchers tell us about luck.
E.A lucky person generally receive good fortune in the future.
F.Lucky people score much higher on openness than unlucky people.
G.You probably have many more lucky things happening in your life than you think.
