Here s how to keep the cash - and the passion. Brian Greenberg is a college financial planner, but o

5、n a recent morning he felt more like a marriage counselor. The couple sitting in his office, near Cherry Hill, New Jersey, was seeking advice about applying for financial aid for the mans son from a previous marriage. When they walked in, Greenberg recalls, I could feel the hostility. The income fro

6、m the wife s business, which she had started before they married, was modest, but it was just enough to limit the amount of aid the son could receive. The husband wanted her to incorporate to reduce their income, thereby allowing the son to qualify for more aid. She didnt want to go through the comp

7、licated incorporation process, but felt pressured by her husband. He was saying, I m entitled to do what I want because I m making the money that pays the bills, recalls Greenberg. That kind of thinking undermines a relationship. Much of this type of animosity (仇恨) can be avoided if only couples wou

8、ld talk about money before they get married, says Mary Claire Allvine, a certified financial planner in Chicago and Atlanta and co - author of The 7 Most Important Money Decisions Youll Ever Make. Without this talk, it s unlikely that couples have an actual plan for their lives together. Studies hav

9、e shown that disagreements over money are the No. 1 cause of friction in a marriage. And for some, theyre the No. 1 reason for divorce. So why can some couples weather financial ups and downs while others split over a household budget? The key to success is to find the common ground - the shared val

10、ues about how, as partners, you want to live your lives together. Here are some tips for executing a money plan without losing the passion. Think big and put it in buckets. After couples have paid their fixed expenses, they often find themselves disagreeing over how to spend what s left - pay off th

11、e credit cards or get that HDTV one of them has been craving. To avoid such clashes, talk about your dreams. Allvine s research says couples who dont get bogged down with day -to- day budgeting details are usually the most successful with their money. You cant say to the spender, Okay, you can only

12、spend $ 50 a month. It s like putting people on a diet where they can last for a while but then they just binge and eat a loaf of bread. The spender will say, Ill cut back. And then they start cutting out the extra cup of coffee. But it s rarely the coffee that puts them in debt. It s the home they

13、can t afford or the car they shouldn t be driving. Allvine recommends sorting your big dreams - starting a business, owning a home, saving for a vacation - into categories, or buckets. When you name the bucket, you know what that money is for, and you won t use it for anything else. That s how coupl

14、es get to their goals - they pay themselves first for the big things. Everyone needs the prenuptial (結(jié)婚前的)talk. As todays couples marry later, or remarry, they face big challenges combining resources. One spouse may bring children from a previous marriage; another might be caring for elderly parents

15、. The new- think says, rich or not, you may need a prenuptial agreement. It makes sense to think things through early on, says Mellody Hobson, president of Ariel Capital Management in Chicago. But Carrie Schwab - Pomerantz, co - author, with her father, Charles Schwab, of It Pays to Talk, has a diff

16、erent take: Not everyone needs to sign a prenuptial document- but everyone should have the prenuptial conversation. The point, says Schwab - Pomerantz, is to get an idea of each others money personality. If someone has a lot of debt. that can reflect some personality issues that his or her partner n

33、erious loss of life.23、Section BDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.The concept of culture has been defined many times

34、, and although no definition has achieved universal acceptance, most of the definitions include three central ideas: that culture is passed on from generation to generation, that a culture represents a ready-made prescription for living and for making day-to-day decisions, and, finally, that the com

35、ponents of a culture are accepted by those in the culture as good, and true, and not to be questioned. The eminent anthropologist George Murdock has listed seventy-three items that characterize every known culture, past and present. The list begins with Age-grading and Athletic sports, runs to Weani

36、ng and Weather Control, and includes on the way such items as Calendar, Fire making, Property Rights, and Tool making. I would submit that even the most extreme advocate of a culture of poverty viewpoint would readily acknowledge that, with respect to almost all of these items, every American, beyon

37、d the first generation immigrant, regardless of race or class, is a member of a common culture. We all share pretty much the same sports. Maybe poor kids dont know how to play polo, and rich kids dont spend time with stickball, but we all know baseball, and football, and basketball. Despite some mis

38、guided efforts to raise minor dialects to the status of separate tongues, we all, in fact, share the same language. There may be differences in diction and usage, but it would be ridiculous to say that all Americans dont speak English. We have the calendar, the law, and large numbers of other cultur

39、al items in common. It may well be true that on a few of the seventy-three items there are minor variations between classes, but these kinds of things are really slight variations on a common theme. There are other items that show variability, not in relation to class, but in relation to religion an

40、d ethnic backgroundfuneral customs and cooking, for example. But if there is one place in America where the melting pot is a reality, it is on the kitchen stove; in thc course of one month, half the readers of this sentence have probably eaten pizza, hot pastrami, and chow mein. Specific differences

41、 that might be identified as signs of separate cultural identity are relatively insignificant within the general unity of American life; they are cultural commas and semicolons in the paragraphs and pages of American life. According to the authors definition of culture,A.a culture should be accepted

42、 and maintained universallyB.a culture should be free from falsehood and evilsC.the items of a culture should be taken for granted by peopleD.the items of a culture should be accepted by well-educated people24、Section ADirections: In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conve

43、rsations. At the end of each conversation, one or more questions will be asked about what was said. Both the conversation and the questions will be spoken only once. After each question there will be a pause. During the pause, you must read the four choices marked A, B, C and D, and decide which is

44、the best answer.聽力原文：W: I need some aspirin, please, and Id also like to get this prescription filled.M: Fine. Heres your aspirin. I have the prescription for you in about ten minutes if you want to wait.Q: Where did this conversation most probably take place?(12)A.At a drug store.B.At a hospital.C.

45、At a doctors office.D.At a dentists office.25、 Which of the following should play the leading role in the solution of environmental problems?A.Legislation and government intervention.B.The industrys understanding and support.C.The efforts of environmental health professionals.D.The cooperation of ec

46、ologists, environmental activists and conservationists.26、(14)A.Its far from being ready yet.B.It contains some valuable ideas.C.She needs another week to get it ready.D.It has nothing to do with the Internet.27、 In a traffic accident, some outer damages to car body are often _.A.indifferentB.invisi

47、bleC.negligibleD.ignorant28、Section BDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.Someone has calculated that by the time an Am

48、erican reaches the age of 40, he or she has been exposed to one million ads. Another estimate is that we have encountered more than 600,000 ads by the time we reach the age of only 18. Now, of course, we dont remember what exactly they said or even what the product was, but a composite message gets

49、through: that you deserve the best, that you should have it now, and that its okay to indulge yourself, because you deserve the compliments, sex appeal, or adventure you are going to get as a result of buying this car or those cigarettes. Our consumer-based economy makes two absolutely reciprocal ps

50、ychological demands on its members. On the one hand, you need the discipline values to ensure that people will be good workers and lead orderly, law-abiding lives. On the other hand, you need the enjoy yourself messages to get people to be good consumers. One author was disturbed about the enjoy you

51、rself side, but acknowledged that without a means of stimulating mass consumption, the very structure of our business enterprise would collapse. The interesting question has to do with the psychological consequences of the discrepancy between the dual messages. The discipline or traditional values t

52、heme demands that one compartment of the personality have a will strong enough to keep the individual doing unpleasant work at low wages, or to stay in an unhappy marriage, and, in general, to do things for the good of the commonwealth. The enjoy yourself message, on the other hand, tends to encoura

53、ge a very different kind of personalityone that is self-centered, based on impulse, and is unwilling to delay rewards. As an illustration, I cant resist reciting one of my favorite ads of all time, an ad from a psychology magazine: I love me. Im just a good friend to myself. And I like to do what ma

54、kes me feel good. I used to sit around, putting things off till tomorrow. Tomorrow Ill drink champagne, and buy a set of pearls, and pick up that new stereo. But now I live my dreams today, not tomorrow. So what happens to us as we take in these opposing messages, as we are, in fact, torn between th

55、e opposite personality types that our society seems to require of us? The result is anxiety, fear, and a mysterious dread. The fear of being sucked in and dragged down by our consumer culture is real: the credit card company is not friendly when you default on your bills. And we all know that the pa

56、th of pleasure-seeking and blind acquisition is a recipe for financial ruinfor most of us, anywayand that, in American society, them isnt much of a safety net to catch you if you fall. From the first paragraph we know that ads in America are very _.A.pervasiveB.convincingC.successfulD.impressive29、聽

57、力原文：W: Tony, I have been hearing so much in the news about different presidential candidates. Can you tell me a little about how Americans elect their President?M: Well, its a long process. We start off by deciding who the official candidate for each political party will be. Usually, a person first

58、announces that he or she wants to run for President. If you want to be your partys official candidate, you need to raise money and gather support from party members. Candidates usually campaign to let people know what they represent. They give speeches, meet with community leaders, and participate i

59、n debates. This process lasts for several months, and then the party members vote to decide who they want to back in the election.W: Do you have to be rich to become President?M: You dont really have to be rich to become President, but it helps. Usually rich people have more connections and can rais

60、e money more effectively. Most of our Presidents in the past have been relatively rich men, but not all of them.W: So, how do you make the final decision?M: After several months of television ads, interviews, speeches, and kissing babies we have the presidential election. Citizens go to a voting cen
