题目列表(包括答案和解析)

 

       A.Use cash.Instead of paying things with credit cards, use cash for non-bill spending such as eating out, gas and groceries.Spending cash makes the spending more real, and there’s an added advantage of knowing when you’re out of cash.

       B.Small weekly savings transfers.I got this idea from my friend, who automatically deducts(扣除) $20 a week from his check to savings.I decided that I could live with the deduction of $40/week without really feeling it — it’s a relatively small transfer that I barely notice, and I save about $2,000 a year!

       C.Stay at home.Going out makes you spend money unnecessarily.You eat at restaurants, go to the mall, and stop at the gas station for snacks.It’s hard to avoid spending when you’re on the road.Instead, stay at home and find free entertainment.It’s also a great way to bond with your family.

      

       D.Don’t get catalogs(商品宣传册).Their announcements of sales or cool new products make it very temting(引诱人的) to buy something you don’t need.Instead, stop getting the catalogs, and you’ll spend less.

       E.Keep a 30-day list.If you have an impulse(冲动) to buy something you don’t absolutely need, put it on a 30-day list.You can’t buy anything but necessities — everything else goes on the list.When the 30 days are up, you can buy it — but most likely, the strong urge to buy it will be gone, and you can evaluate it more calmly.

       F.Cook at home.I know it seems more difficult than eating out.But it doesn’t have to be hard.Make home-made pizza with a ready-made crust, some sauce, cheese and veggies.Put some spices on something and throw it in the oven while you cook some brown rice.Not only is this much cheaper than eating out, but it’s healthier.

阅读下面几位消费者的情况介绍,并为他们匹配合适的建议。

1.Mr.And Mrs.Brown are a newly-married couple who work in the same company.They don’t earn much in their work, but they have to spend a larger part of their income to pay for their rent and daily necessities.Furthermore, they seldom eat at home because neither of them cooks well.Therefore, they have to pay a lot more extra money for food.

2.Mrs.Wang enjoys shopping very much because she is free all day long.Whenever she is wandering in the shops or stores, she will have a strong impulse and find it difficult for her to get back home with her hands empty.But it is quite often that she will find what she has bought is almost useless when she gets home.

3.Tony is a university student in New York, who is far away from his parents.He pays everything with his credit card.He finds it very cool for him to purchase with his credit card.However, he often finds his money has already run out in the middle of the month.

4.Miss Betty is a high school girl whose parents give her some money every week.As her parents don’t earn much money, she wants to save some money secretly so that she can buy a digital camera.

5.Miss Catherine is a young girl who is easily to be persuaded into buying something useless.She will get encouraged to buy something when she sees an advertisement.Her parents have warned her many times against doing such stupid things, but it doesn’t work much.

     Crosstalk, a traditional form of comic storytelling, is making a comeback in China's teahouses and
theaters.
     Audiences can laugh the night away every Saturday at the Qianxiangyi Teahouse in Tianjin,
entertained by the apprentices (学徒) of Hou Baolin, Ma Sanli or Yin Shoushan -- all leading crosstalk
artists of years past -for only 20 yuan (US$2.40). The success in Tianjin has also given motivation to the
rejuvenation (复活) of crosstalk in Beijing and other places.
     Although the art form originated in Beijing in the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), Tianjin became a place
where rising stars developed their styles and new pieces were tried out. The city was famous for the
quality of its crosstalk performances.
     "We only want to bring the traditional pieces back to the audiences, helping them to learn their charms
and definitions," said Yin Xiaosheng, head of the Zhongyou Arts Troupe.
     Known in Chinese as xiangsheng (literally, "face and voice"), crosstalk was the main form of comedy
throughout most of the 20th century. In the old days in Tianjin and elsewhere, temple fairs and markets
were the main places for crosstalkers to perform, although they occasionally also appeared in teahouses
or theaters.
     Usually crosstalk pieces draw on every aspect of Chinese culture, from history and folk tales to
contemporary social issues. Although there are hundreds of pieces in the traditional works, they are
constantly rewritten to suit the times and the audience, while new works are written as well. This is one
of the features that have made crosstalk a populist(平民化) art form throughout its history.
     "Crosstalk was in the doldrums with competition from other art forms, especially TV," said Wang
Xiaochun, headmaster of the Northern Storytelling Arts School of China (NSAS). "But it has regained
its status with crosstalk fans, especially young people, growing aware of its rare qualities." The
reawakening of interest in the traditional art is going beyond merely watching and listening for many.
"More and more students are coming to NSAS to study crosstalk, including some girl students," said
Wang, "They are sure that crosstalk will have a strong market."
1. From the passage, we can know the crosstalk originates(源于) from ______.
A. the TV shows      
B. the teahouse and theater
C. the cinema           
D. the temple fairs and markets
2. Crosstalk makes a comeback mainly because_________.
A. it is one of the most popular traditional art forms
B. the pieces mainly cover folk tales and social issues
C. the pieces are changing with times and audience  
D. it is performed by some leading crosstalk artists
3. Which is the opposite of the underlined word "doldrums" (in the last paragraph)?
A. Boom.
B. Variety.
C. Harmony.
D. Period.
4. From the passage we can predict the future of crosstalk lies in______.
A. making up a variety of traditional pieces
B. having advantages over other media
C. young people's the awareness of its value     
D. the competitive and big markets for art
