More Than I Had Dreamed Of

From the time I was seven, I had a dream of becoming a member of the Students Union．I always 36 my school leaders for taking responsibility for all of us．So I dreamed of being a leader．

Years flew by, and soon I was able to participate in the elections, 37 I would win．But the reality struck that I hadn't had a chance．I wasn't pretty．Girls across the school hardly knew me．I just did not have what it 38 to win a school election．I was 39 ．

As I cried in my room that evening, I 40 took a deep breath and decided I wouldn't stop dreaming．I decided that I would 41 for elections again in my final year at school—and I would win．

I recognized that my 42 had a lot of things in their favor．What were the 43 that would work in my favor? I had good grades, and I was friendly and helpful．And my biggest 44 was the faith I had．I would not allow my 45 appearance to hold me back from putting my best foot forward．That evening, I 46 my election plans a whole year in advance．

I realized that girls would have to get to know me and recognize that I had the ability to 47 them．I loved making friends and I liked being helpful, 48 I decided that perhaps I could use these qualities to work to my advantage．In order to learn how to present a great election 49 , I also attended a course on effective public speaking．

The day after the election, when the principal announced I won the second highest number of votes, the students 50 That joy on the faces of all my friends showed me that my victory was 51 theirs．

Suddenly, I realized that I had 52 much more than I had dreamed of．I had made many new friends and had helped people 53 the way．I had won the 54 and love of my school-mates and they knew me as somebody who would stand by them．I was able to put a smile on their faces and 55 their day． 36．A．admired B．remembered C．praised D．believed 37．A．praying B．planning C．calculating D．judging 38．A．assessed B．provided C．meant D．took 39．A．concerned B．depressed C．surprised D．confused 40．A．gradually B．immediately C．suddenly D．impatiently 41．A．pay B．stand C．speak D．wait 42．A．competitors B．companions C．enemies D．schoolmates 43．A．cases B．methods C．examples D．points 44．A．problem B．strength C．worry D．dream 45．A．young B．personal C．special D．plain 46．A．began B．discussed C．announced D．cancelled 47．A．recommend B．accompany C．represent D．support 48．A．but B．and C．so D．or 49．A．campaign B．speech C．ceremony D．promise 50．A．nodded B．gathered C．cheered D．cried

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

The First Rule of Finance is to live within your means by spending no more than 80% of your take-home pay．If you take home $ 100 per week, spend no more than $80．

But ever look at what people spend their money on? I have relatives and friends deeply in debt, spending $ 12 for every $ 10 they earn instead of the $ 8 you know they should be spending．When I see them, they're proud of their new whatever．\truck?\．\heels．\out my new big screen．\said a third while holding the remote in his living room．We've all heard people fishing for compliments on their new toys．

Every one of them was proud of what they'd financed．They seem to have bought it for the purpose of being proud, of showing off, of keeping up with the Joneses．\…?\everybody's favorite phrase, even when the object in question isn't theirs at all and won't be new when they've finally paid for it, if they ever do．

They're proud of being stupid．They think it's cool to drive the financed car, wear the financed shoes, and watch the financed TV, but to smart people, whose opinions are the only ones we should respect, these people look dumb as rocks．

The Joneses, nine times out of 10, are financially stupid．That's why they have all that stuff on borrowed money．Why try to copy them? Worse, why try to impress them? Copy and impress smart people, the ones who own their stuff．If you want to impress smart people, debt is the last way to go about it．Trying to impress a money-smart person by going into debt is like trying to impress Olympic swimming champion Michael Phelps by drowning in a pool．Michael Phelps is impressed by good swimming and a money-smart person by good money management． 56．According to the author, the \． A．symbol of wealth B．unnecessary purchases C．impressive stuff D．things available

57．The underlined words \． A．having high IQs B．earning enough money C．creating new ideas D．managing money well 58．The author is trying to ______． A．advise people to be money-smart B．persuade people to keep off fashions C．blame people for copying others D．criticize people for over consumption
