3．How to make a Budget
Most likely，you aren't the family breadwinner．But doing a small job or getting a weekly allowance would put some money in your pocket．For kids and grown-ups alike money is easy to spend．If you aren't careful，it can be gone in no time．
Being responsible with your money is an important skill to learn and the sooner you start the better．Whether you are tracking your spending or saving for something special，creating a budget can help you deal with expenses and plan for the future．All you need are paper and a pencil and some self-control．
First，take a look at our sample monthly budget．Then，use a separate sheet of paper to plan your own．In the first two columns，list your sources of income and how much you expect to earn from them．In the third and fourth columns，list what you expect to spend your money on and the amount．
Sample Monthly Budget
Monthly incomeAmountMonthly ExpensesAmount
Allowance 20.00Snacks 26.00
Money earned
selling drinks		 25.00Music downloads 12.00
Money earned
babysitting		 12.50Movies 18.00
Money earned
delivering newspapers		 30.00Video Rentals 10.00
Total： 87.50Total： 66.00
The left-hand total should be more than or equal to the right-hand total．If it is，you have an effective budget．
Budgets are not complex，but sticking to them can be tough．When planning your budget，be realistic about your expenses．If you know that you drop 18at a movie，don't write 12in that space simply because you wish you were spending less．
If you are eyeing a big purchase，such as a 150skateboard，spend less and save more until you have the total amount．No matter how attractive it may be，avoid spending your savings．One day，you will thank yourself!
13．The purpose of making a budget is to help peopleB．
A．learn to be realistic              
B．manage their money well
C．increase their savings            
D．test their power of self-control
14．What should people do when planning a budget？A
A．Fill in the expenses as they really are．
B．Avoid spending money on expensive things．
C．Set aside a fixed amount of money as savings．
D．List income and expenses on two pieces of paper．
15．Who is the passage written for？D

17．Electric cars are dirty．In fact，not only are they dirty，but they might even be more dirty than their gasoline-powered cousins．
People in California love to talk about"zero-emissions （排放） vehicles"，but people in California seem to be clueless about where electricity comes from．Power plants mostly use fire to make it．Apart from the few people who have their roofs covered with solar cells，we get our electricity from generators （發(fā)電機(jī)）．Generators are fueled by something----usually coal，oil，but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants．There are a few wind farms and geothermal （地?zé)幔?nbsp;plants as well，but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something．
In other words，those"zero-emissions"cars are likely coal-burning cars．Because the coal is burned somewhere else，it looks clean．It is not true．It's as if the California Greens are covering their eyes----"If I can't see it，it's not happening．"Gasoline is an incredibly （極其） efficient way to power a vehicle； a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it．But when you take that gas （or another fuel） and first use it to make electricity，you waste a nice part of that energy，mostly in the form of wasted heat--at the generator，through the transmission lines，etc．
A gallon of gas may drive your car 25miles．But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas won't get you nearly as far---so electric cars burn more fuel than gasoline-powered ones．If our electricity came mostly from wind or geothermal，or solar，then an electric car truly would be clean．But for political，technical，and economic reasons，we don't use much of those energy sources．
In addition，electric cars'batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill （垃圾填埋場(chǎng)）．And finally，when cars are the polluters，the pollution is spread across all the roads．When it's a power plant，though，all the junk is in one place．Nature is very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentrated，but it takes a lot longer when all the garbage is in one spot．
32．Which of the following words can replace"be clueless about"in Paragraph 2？B
A．be familiar with．
B．fail to understand．
C．be curious about．
D．show their interest in．
33．The electricity we get from a gallon of gas may make our car runC．
A．a(chǎn)t least 25miles                    
B．more than 25miles
C．less than 25miles                   
D．a(chǎn)s far as 25miles
34．In the author's opinion，compared with cars using gas，electric cars are moreA．
A．harmful                        
B．expensive
C．efficient                   
D．environmentally-friendly
35．It can be inferred from the passage thatB．
A．electric cars'batteries are no longer poisonous in the landfill
B．electric cars are not clean since we get electricity mainly by burning something
C．zero-emissions vehicles should be chosen to protect our environment
D．now electric cars are used more than their gasoline-powered cousins．

13．When your country relies heavily on tourism and you lose more than a third of your visitors due to political revolution，you've got to do something pretty dramatic to get them back．And if you are Egypt，you reopen a pyramid．
The Egyptian government recently announced that one of its great pyramids 一 the Pyramid of Chefren 一 and as many as six other ancient tombs at the Giza Necropolis （吉薩金字塔群） will be reopened after a long restoration project．The move was made in an attempt to revive （重振） a tourism industry that was badly affected by last year's unrest．
Egypt became a no-go area following the unrest in 2011．Scenes of violent protests，mainly in the Capital Cairo，were broadcast ACROSS the world and understandably took the country off the holiday trail．
Despite that questions are still being asked about the security of potential tourists visiting the region，Egypt's antiquities minister Muhammad Ibrahim insisted that it was a safe country．He said the region was far more stable one year on，adding that other archaeological （考古的） sites were due to be opened across Egypt in coming months．
The Pyramid of Chefren，also known as the Pyramid of Chafren，is the second largest pyramid at the Giza site．It was built as the tomb for the Pharaoh Chafren from ancient Egypt's fourth dynasty．The pyramid and the other around it，were discovered in 1927 by American archaeologist George Reinser，and have been closed for restoration on several other occasions in the past．
In 1990s a site management plan was carried out to try and preserve these historic treasures when the antiquities ministry discovered that the large volume of visitors over the years had raised levels of humidity inside the structures to levels of up to 80 percent．Research found that every visitor to the pyramids released an average of 20 grams of water vapor through sweat，which slowly caused damage to the walls inside．
The project，which cost around $4 million，included cleaning the walls of the tombs and strengthening them，as well AS removing graffiti left by previous visitors．Inscriptions （銘文）and paintings were also preserved．
 
（Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN FIFTEEN WORDS．）
81．The Pyramid of Chefren will be reopened following restoration project in an attempt torevive Egypt's tourism industry
82．According to the passage，why were tourists unwilling to go to Egypt after the unrest in 2011？Because tourists were worried about their safety．
83．What else does the Egyptian government plan to do in the coming months to help the country's tourism industry？To reopen other archaeological sites across Egypt．
84．A site management plan was carried out in the 1990s becausethe large volume of visitors had caused damage to the walls inside pyramids．
