【要点综述】 年轻时就要学会省钱,这是重要的一课。所有好的习惯都开始于青年时代……新时代的青年人如何花钱、省钱、存钱是值得我们思考的问题。
1.A 由语境可知,省钱应该是每一个人都需要的技能。
2.D have a good sense of“对……有明确的意识”。句意为:很多人,包括成年人,对为了长远打算而省钱都没有明确的意识。这里强调的是认识上的问题,所以不能用knowledge。
3.C 第一段告诉我们,早点接受省钱的教育是很好的,而“我”恰恰在小时候就上了这样的课,自然是很幸运了。foolish意为“愚蠢的,傻的”;fundamental意为“基本的,主要的”;grateful意为“感激的”。 专题三 │ 新题预测
4.B 这里表示范围,意思是“在我赚的钱中”,所以要用of。
5.B build up在此表示“逐渐积累(资金等)”。句意为:要确保储蓄而不挥霍是增长财富的好方法。divide up意为“分配”;keep up意为“保持,维持”;make up意为“弥补,编造”。
6.D grow意为“增加,增长”。既然花掉了所有的钱,钱就不可能增多。
7.B realize意为“意识到”,符合语境。recognize意为“认出”;research意为“研究,调查”;doubt意为“怀疑”。
8.C should意为“应该”,在这里表示按情理推出的较大的可能性,符合语境。may意为“可能,也许”,表示不太肯定的推测。
9.A 由语境知“it will grow”是“you should also save some”的结果,所以用so that引导结果状语从句。in case意为“以防万一”;in that意为“因为,由于”;but for意为“要不是”。
10.A not only…but also是并列连词,可以省略also。
11.A 由下文的“with expenses such as food and rent”可以看出,大学的费用应该是比较昂贵的。
12.C hold onto意为“紧紧抓住”,在这里引申为:不花掉,积攒。句意为:如果你能把少年时期赚的钱积攒一些的话,那么你上大学、买房子就轻松多了。hold out意为“伸出,维持”;hold up意为“阻挡,使停顿”;hold back意为“抑制,退缩”。
13.B 很显然,这里是从反面论证从小学会节约的好处:如果你到30岁还没有积蓄,那你将不得不努力了。所以要选struggle“奋斗,努力”。survive意为“幸存”;tolerate意为“忍耐”;die意为“死亡”。
14.D 很显然,后一个分句解释的是“Later in life it can be hard to start saving”的原因,所以选since表示“因为,由于”。
15.A pay the bills指支付生活中的各种账单,符合语境。pay the taxes意为“交税”;pay attention意为“注意”;pay consequences意为“承担后果”。
16.C come from意为“来自”。这里要表达的意思是:这些钱来自你节省下来的钱。
17.D secure意为“安心的,无虑的”。文章最后一句有暗示。句意为:钱可以帮你过一种安心的生活。由上一句话可以排除A。simple意为“简朴的”;miserable意为“凄惨的”,都不符合语境。
18.B 这样就可以做一些自己喜欢的事情了。allow意为“允许,准许”。
19.A 这里承接上一段的两个方面进一步阐述早点开始攒钱的好处,所以应该选择in addition,意为“另外,除……之外”。
20.B 语境为:此外,从早些时候开始攒钱还意味着你可以无忧地按你想要的生活方式生活。consult意为“咨询,商量”;rest意为“休息”;think意为“思考”。
