3. List what you spend on needs---and if there is money left over, you will save for the things you really want. This is called a budget.

4. If you don’t have enough money for what you need and want, you may have to 79 one for the other.

No budget is fixed. Keep an eye on yours. Maybe you wanted a comic book, but now you want a video game 80 . Your needs may change into wants, or your wants may change into needs.

Keep reading, and you will become familiar with the words a 86 you read them several times in different passages.

Reading English newspapers makes us knowledgeable. It can not only help us know what is happening in the world but also improve our language. Thus you can make your English learning

D. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) (12分)

A bookstore chain “Popular Bookmall” introduced their special style of book distribution (分销)in Shanghai back in November. This experimental store offers books at very low prices, and there is no staff to require customers to pay before taking books away. Sounds like a book lover’s paradise!

Popular Bookmall had already set up such a shop in Nanjing. The organizers of the Nanjing store report that it was a great success; enough customers voluntarily paid for their books. But most older “honesty stores” in China did not receive enough honest customers. For example, a self-service restaurant opened in Fujian province years ago. It allowed customers to pay whatever they chose, but about one-fifth of customers paid nothing. The organizers of the “honesty stores” say that their goal is to encourage people in China to remember how important honesty is.

Many Chinese are worried about dishonesty in China. Even at Popular Bookmall, not everybody chose to pay for their books. Is it a good way to solve it by law? Maybe not. We should listen to our conscience (良心). This has deep roots in Chinese culture. Confucius (孔夫子) taught Chinese to be conscientious and honest.

But there are also a great rational (理性的) reason for “honesty stores”: the more honest people there are in society, the more reasons we have to trust others. And if people trusted each other, they’d be more willing to share. For example, in a “sharing economy”, we do not have to think about saving or spending money all the time. We should try to help other people. In brief, society is built on trust, not only trade (商业). 88. What is the special style of book distribution in “Popular Bookmall”? 89. “Popular Bookmall” in Nanjing was a great success, wasn’t it? 90. Why did organizers open many “honesty stores” in China? 91. What are many Chinese worried about?

92. According to Confucius, how should we encourage ourselves to be honest?

93. What does the underlined part “society is built on trust, not only trade” try to tell us? VII.

C. Listen to the passage and tell whether the following statements are true or false (判断下列句子是否符合你听到的短文内容，符合的用“T”表示，不符合的用“F”表示) (6分) “A garden sale” is a popular activity in America. When people do not want their old books or clothes, they collect them and sell them in the garden outside their home. Sometimes it takes place in a garage where cars are parked, so it is also called a “garage sale.” “A garden sale” doesn’t have to be huge. One family, or even one person, can hold “a garden sale”. They may publish the news of the sale in a local newspaper. Some families also put signs on nearby streets to direct people to their house. And, as simple as that, they have a garden sale. For people with little money, garden sales are a good way to find useful things for their family. They can buy their kid a toy car or a football at a very low price. Other people go there to find something special for their collection, like stamps and old money. Businessmen also go to garden sales. They may find a beautiful old carpet. After it is repaired, it will be worth a lot of money. Garden sales are an important part of American’s lives. They are fun and help protect the environment. Old things find new homes, so they are not thrown away.

D. Listen to the passage and complete the following sentences (听短文，完成下列内容。每空格限填一词) (10分)

If you are sitting at a desk, writing an article, stop for a moment and think: Could a robot or machine do this job better? The answer might be yes. Here are three jobs that robots are likely to take the place of in the coming future. Believe it or not, writers are among them. Many of the news articles you’ve read over the last few years might have been written by software. Some of the world’s most famous magazines such as Forbes《福布斯》, for example, regularly run computer-written articles. Does this mean we’ll see a future with no human writers? Well, it could be. Drivers are also probably less needed, because driverless cars are here. And they are being tested in a few U.S. cities. They’re better than human drivers in some ways: They don’t have blind spots, they don’t get sleepy and they don’t get distracted. So driverless cars seem to provide a safer and cheaper performance. Cashier seems like a clear example of an occupation that a robot machine can also take the place of. Today, many supermarkets and department stores have cashiers with self-checkouts. It’s said that the number of self-checkout machines may be as high as 335,000 by 2020. They do help the check-out lines move quickly although they have some problems.

21. three jobs 22. famous magazines 23. less needed 24. to provide 25. move quickly
