試題分析:本文講述了一個(gè)哲理小故事。在故事中想要定居下來(lái)的人們需要水源,于是首領(lǐng)派出了三群人分別去查看周?chē)貐^(qū)。這些派出去的人有的發(fā)現(xiàn)了植物,有的發(fā)現(xiàn)了動(dòng)物,有的發(fā)現(xiàn)了魚(yú)。但是當(dāng)回來(lái)匯報(bào)的時(shí)候,他們卻固執(zhí)己見(jiàn),因此而分道揚(yáng)鑣,各自去了各自探索的地方,而沒(méi)有享受到共同的資源。

After Mom died, I began visiting Dad every morning before I went to work. He was frail and moved slowly, but he always had a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice on the kitchen table for me, along with an unsigned note reading, “Drink your juice.” Such a gesture, I knew, was as far as Dad had ever been able to go in expressing his love. In fact, I remember, as a kid I had questioned Mom“ Why doesn't Dad love me!” Mom frowned. “Who said he doesn't love you!” “Well, he never tells me,” I complained. “He never tells me either,” she said, smiling. “But look how hard he works to take care of us, to buy us food and clothes, and to pay for this house. That's how your father tells us he loves us.” Then Mom held me by the shoulders and asked, “Do you understand?’’ I nodded slowly. I understood in my head, but not in my heart. I still wanted my father to put his arms around me and tell me he loved me. Dad owned and operated a small scrap(片)metal business, and after school I often hung around while he worked. I always hoped he'd ask me to help and then praise me for what I did. He never asked. His tasks were too dangerous for a young boy to attempt, and Mom was already worried enough that he'd hurt himself. Dad hand fed scrap steel into a device that chopped it as cleanly as a butcher chops a rack of ribs. The machine looked like a giant pair of scissors, with blades thicker than my father's body. If he didn't feed those terrifying blades just right, he risked serious injury. “Why don't you hire someone to do that for you?” Mom asked Dad one night as she bent over him and rubbed his aching shoulders with a strong smelling liniment. “Why don't you hire a cook? ”Dad asked, giving her one of his rare smiles.

Many years later, during my first daily visit, after drinking the juice my father had squeezed for me, I walked over, hugged him and said, “I love you, Dad.” From then on I did this every morning. My father never told me how he felt about my hugs, and there was never any expression on his face when I gave them.

I’m a real book lover. Every time my friends visit me, my nose is buried in a book. Wherever I go, I always have a book with me. Novels, history books, stories about people, journals and news—I read them all and I’ve learnt a lot, too. For example, many things in life happen for the best even if we don’t like or understand them.

Why is reading such an enjoyable pastime for me? I probably first learned about it from my parents. My mother read to me at night in my childhood and bought me picture books. The greatest gift she has given me is a love for reading. And it will be a life-long habit.

No one ever asked me why I liked to read. They just saw me and asked, “Oh? Is that for school work?” And I just shook my head, “No. It’s just for fun.” While reading a good book, I can totally forget myself and fly to another world. It’s like exploring through someone’s eyes, which is just as exciting as watching a movie.

Reading is also necessary in order to learn about writing, to improve my use of words and phrases and broaden my knowledge. What a pity to see our imagination disappear, for we don’t exercise it often. Reading can even be good for one’s health, I think. Everyone should read sad stories that make us cry and also books with humor that make us laugh out loud!

1.. Among the gifts my parents have given me, which is the most valuable one?

A. A love for reading. B. Picture books.

C. Good health. D. A lovable pastime.

2.. In the fourth paragraph, the author thinks reading can ____.

A. make his parents happy

B. finish his school work

C. improve writing and broaden knowledge

D. help him understand some movies

3.. If we don’t use our imagination often, ____.

A. it is bad for our healthB. we will soon learn how to write

C. it will help us to have a good restD. it will soon disappear

4.. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. Why do I have few friends?B. What are my life habits?

C. Why do I love reading?D. Why do things happen for the best?

Today, we are talking about money. I can share a bit about my history with money and my new view when it comes to using green paper.

I made a web page with links to posts about our financial journey where you can look for more details of where we’ve been and how we got where we are now. It was a big part of my story in the past and was a huge part of our downsizing journey. We got out of debt and stayed out of debt.

So I feel eager to share the benefits of being on this side. It takes planning and more careful thought whenever a dollar is spent now than it did when I had a wallet full of credit cards. I now like to think all of my dollars having a job. So many of us work for money and don’t consider that money should work for us, too. Make your dollars do the job of helping you live the life you want.

Each time money is spent or saved, it should be going toward something that you purposefully want for your life. Last week I was out and I spent $20 on food in 3 days. It made me angry because afterward I thought about eating is not at all what for my life.

On the other hand, there are times I spend $20 while out with my family and it doesn’t bother me one bit. An afternoon out with my kids during which we stop for ice cream, and do something fun together has a completely different feel to it.

In the end, I want the dollars I spend to have purpose like I can enjoy life while still planning and saving for the future.

1.What do the underlined words “green paper” in Paragraph I refer to ______.

A. money B. work C. newspaper D. book

2.You can learn about the writer’s history with money ______.

A. by making a web page

B. by reading posts about their financial journey

C. by going on a financial journey

D. by writing to him

3.In the writer’s opinion, ________.

A. more credit cards should be used in our daily life

B. we should work hard to make more money

C. money should help us live better

D. saving money is very easy

4.Why did the writer feel happy with the money spent with his family?

A. Because the money is spent on food.

B. Because the money is spent in doing something fun.

C. Because eating is what he wanted for his life.

D. Because the money went toward something that he wanted for his life.
