26、Everybody in this world is different from one another. But do you know that understanding differences can help you better manage your money?

As we grow up, we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs. These are influenced by society, our family, the education we receive and so on. Once this value system is set up, it's not easy to change later in life.

Financial experts say that everyone also has their own belief of how to manage their finances. This is part of our value system and it has a great impact on the way we look after our money.

According to our different values, experts put us in three categories. They are: the ant, the cricket and the snail.

The ant-works first

Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don't care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire. The ant loves to save but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks with low risk.

The cricket-fun first

The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn't think too much about the future. They even borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These people have little savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance.

The snail-lives under pressure

The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long-term loans from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses. They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure whether they can afford it. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully.

【1】People with the character of the snail would like to ________.

A. enjoy life at the moment without thinking much about the future

B. put work before everything else

C. live a luxury life at all costs

D. take the risk of investing a large sum of money

【2】Our beliefs and values are affected by the following except ________.

A. society   B. our family

C. education   D. money

【3】This passage mainly talks about ________.

A. the relation between man and insects

B. the spending nature of people

C. the insects in nature

D. the problems with dealing with money

【4】Which of the following has the character that the author prefers?

A. The ant.   B. The cricket.

C. The snail.   D. None of the above.

27、Plastic is widely used and long-lasting, finding its way into every corner of our lives. But the very qualities that make plastic so useful also make it a huge problem. Cheap and disposable (一次性的), plastic has been a symbol of our throwaway culture. As a result, vast quantities of plastic pollute our world. A truckload of plastic enters the ocean every single minute and UK supermarkets produce 800, 000 tons every year. With production increasing, that’s set to rise.

The UK produces huge plastic waste per person, and a huge amount of it is sent to countries that aren’t equipped to deal with it. Greenpeace (绿色和平组织) investigators found British plastic waste being put and burned in Turkey — on the roadside, near waterways, and in the open air, and people nearby have reported serious health problems.

Bottles, pots, and food bowls are immediately obvious, but other types of plastic pollution can be harder to discern. When plastic breaks down, it doesn’t disappear. Instead, it gets smaller, creating tiny particles called microplastics. Even clothes made from man-made materials leave microplastic fibers when they’re washed.

Bits of plastic have been found in the oceans, on deserted islands, and even in Antarctica. Turtles, dolphins, and seabirds can be injured by large pieces of plastic. It can even be mistaken for food. Microplastics are just as damaging. Eaten by everything from microscopic zooplankton (浮游动物) to giant blue whales, they enter the food chain and carry harmful poisonous substances. Microplastics have even been found in human waste.

We’re just beginning to realize the scale of the problem. People around the world have come together to end plastic pollution, and it’s working. Greenpeace supporters have challenged Coca-Cola to use less plastic packaging, while countries like the UK have banned certain microplastics. Supermarkets are starting to talk about what they need to do. Most of them are trying hard to share their responsibility for reducing plastic waste.

【1】What can we infer about plastic from paragraph 1?

A．It is a double-edged sword.

B．It mostly ends up in the oceans.

C．It is very expensive.

D．It is popular in developing countries.

【2】What does the example of British plastic waste in paragraph 2 mainly show?

A．Dealing with plastic waste improperly threatens human health.

B．Burning plastic waste outside gains the support of the locals.

C．Turkey has rich experience in managing with plastic waste.

D．The UK plays the biggest role in producing plastic waste.

【3】What does the underlined word “discern” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A．Control

B．Avoid

C．Follow

D．Notice

【4】What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A．A huge amount of plastic is being eaten by animals.

B．A lot of work has been done to reduce plastic pollution.

C．More and more plastic products are being made.

D．Microplastics have been banned worldwide.

28、Books can help grow imaginations by bringing children to magical places. Great books for kids can be found at the library or in book stores—the usual places. But for the past three years, children are using their imaginations to find hidden books in many unusual places in Braidwood, a town in New South Wales, Australia.

The books are part of a literary treasure hunt that is sweeping the town, reported ABC News, and they are turning up everywhere. Some are hidden on the streets, in shop windows, or in local parks. The children find a book that has been placed in a plastic sleeve(套管)—take it home, read it, write their name in it, and then either keep it or re-hide it for someone else to find. The initiative(倡议) is a fun way of encouraging children to read.

Samantha Dixon, a mother of five, founded Hidden Books after reading about similar initiatives in the US, UK, and New Zealand on Facebook. She realized that she had a bookcase full of children’s books that were already read and decided that giving away books was much more useful than the recent trend of finding hidden rocks.

Hidden books spread to New Zealand in February, 2021, when the first group of books was spread around the Kapiti district. It was founded by Y’vonne Miller after she had a chance conversation with someone who was taking part in a similar project.

The project took off immediately and now more than 3,200 books have been hidden around the district. “We have 764 members on the Kapiti Hidden Books Facebook page, but we don’t know how many people have found them and read them, and how many have placed the book back out,” Miller told the NZ Herald.

【1】What is the author’s attitude to the initiative popular in Australia?

A．Curious.

B．Supportive.

C．Worried.

D．Unclear.

【2】What do we know about Samantha Dixon?

A．She lives a hard life.

B．She once visited the US.

C．She values children’s reading.

D．She is attracted by challenges.

【3】What can be learned from the last two paragraphs?

A．Dixon had an effect on Miller.

B．Miller took pride in hidden books.

C．Hidden book’s creation is related to a talk.

D．Miller felt stressed in dealing with the project.

【4】What is the main idea of the passage?

A．Hidden books appear in various countries.

B．Hidden books have their own advantages.

C．Hidden books encourage children to read.

D．Hidden books improve children’s imaginations.
