Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasnt a good student, I talked too much, I was too proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last,I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes. He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are the things she says true or not? Janet, didnt you ever wonder what youre really like ? Well, you now have that girls opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things shesaid.” I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldnt change (like being very thin), but a good number I couldand suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself. I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“Thats just for you,” he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, not just close your ears in anger and feeling hurt. When something said about you is true, youll find it will be of help to you. Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Dont shut your ears.

Only a very expensive operation could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money.When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother, “Only a miracle can save him now,” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully.She hurried to a drugstore (药店) with the money in her hand.“And what do you want?” asked the salesman.“Its for my little brother,” the girl answered. “Hes really, really sick and I want to buy a miracle.”“Pardon?” said the salesman.“My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him. So how much does a miracle cost?”“We dont sell a miracle here, child. Im sorry,” the salesman said with a smile.“Listen, if it isnt enough, I can try and get some more. Just tell me how much it costs.” said the girl.A well-dressed man heard it and asked, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”“I dont know,” she answered with her eyes full of tears. “Hes really sick and mum says he needs an operation.

Andrew was in fact not so sick as they had thoughtDPeople can be addicted to(沉溺于) different things e.g. alcohol, drug, certain foods, or even television. People who have such an addiction are pulsive(强迫的):they have a very powerful psychological need that they feel they must satisfy. According to psychologists, many people are pulsive spenders. They feel that they must spend money. This pulsion, like most others, is impossible to explain reasonably. For pulsive spenders who buy on credit(以赊欠方式), charge accounts are even more exciting than money. In other words, pulsive spenders feel that with credit, they can do anything. Their pleasure in spending large amounts is actually greater than the pleasure that they get from the things they buy.There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course, most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts. pulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they dont need just because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their budgets(预算), but they are really playing an exciting game. When they can buy something for less than other people, they feel that they are winning. Most people, experts claim, have two reasons for their behavior: a good reason for the things that they do and the real reason.It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also business people. Stores, panies, and advertisers use psychology to increase business. They consider peoples needs for love, power, or influence, their basic values, their beliefs and opinions, and so on in their advertising and sales methods.Psychologists often use a method called “behavior therapy(疗法)” to help individuals solve their personality problems. In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money.32. According to the psychologists, a pulsive spender is one who spends large amounts of money _.A. and takes great pleasure from what he or she buysB. in order to satisfy his or her basic needs in lifeC. just to meet his or her strong psychological needD. and feels he or she is cheated33. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?A. People spend money for exactly the same reason that they need to buy things.B. Business people and advertisers can use the psychology of peoples spending habits to increase sales.C. Business people understand the psychology of pulsive buying better than scientists do.D. pulsive bargain hunters do not have problems with money.34. What is the text mainly about?A. The psychology of money-spending habits.B. The habits of pulsive spenders.C. A special psychology of bargain hunting.D. The use of the psychology of spending habits in business.35. From the text we may safely conclude that pulsive spenders or pulsive bargain hunters _.A. are really unreasonable B. need special treatmentC. are really beyond drugs D. can never get any help to solve their problems with money第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Why do people travel?

On the other hand, some of the students are too lazy and dont work hard at their lessons or studies. So when taking examinations, they sometimes cheat in order to get better results to please both parents and teachers. In my opinion, it is wrong to cheat in examinations because it breaks the rules of schools. We students should be honest to try to get good results by studying hard instead of cheating in examinations. Whats more, we should improve our study methods and get well prepared for examinations.
