Question

11．Most likely，you aren't the family breadwinner．But doing a small job or getting a weekly allowance （零花錢） 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 going 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 your 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 （欄），list your sources （來源） 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．
　　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  18 at a movie，don't write  12 in that space simply because you wish you were spending less．
　　If you are eyeing a big purchase，such as a  150 skateboard，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!

Answer 1

分析 本文為廣告應(yīng)用文，文章主要教孩子們怎樣做預(yù)算．

解答 56---60 ACADB
56．答案A．推理判斷題．根據(jù)文章第一句"Most likely，you aren't the family breadwinner．"，breadwinner是一個合成詞，由bread和winner構(gòu)成，含義應(yīng)該是養(yǎng)家糊口的人，第一句的意思是：你不是一個養(yǎng)家糊口的人．可知寫作的對象不是parents；更不是Bank manager（銀行經(jīng)理）．故選A．
57．答案C．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第二段中的"creating a budget can help you deal with your expenses"可知，制定預(yù)算能夠幫助你管理自己的錢．故選C．
58．答案A．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的"When planning your budget，be realistic about your expenses．"，可知填表時要真實．故選A．
59．答案D．細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)第三段"In the first two columns （欄），list your sources （來源） 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．"可知，左邊的欄目填收入，右邊的填預(yù)算支出．故A選項的Money earned walking dogs應(yīng)放在左欄．A錯誤．C選項中的Money earned brushing shoes也應(yīng)放在左欄．C錯誤．根據(jù)第四段"The left-hand total should be more than or equal to the right-hand total．If it is，you have an effective budget．"可知，左邊的總和要大于或等于右邊的總和，才是有效的預(yù)算．B中左欄的收入為30，右欄的支出為40．故排除B選項．答案選D．
60．答案B．主旨大意題．通過全文可知，這篇文章主要教孩子們怎樣做預(yù)算．故選B．

點評 做廣告類閱讀的五大技巧
1．先題后文法："先題后文"指的就是先讀試題，了解試題的考查點，再根據(jù)試題的要求快速閱讀短文．
2．題干定向法：如果題干的問題與原文中的相應(yīng)句段基本相同，則可直接對號入座；如果題干的問題與原文中的相應(yīng)句段有較大出入，則要進(jìn)行一定的處理，這個"處理"是多方面的，它可能包括對原文進(jìn)行同義變換、對概念進(jìn)行解析、對事實進(jìn)行歸納、將具體問題抽象化或?qū)⒊橄髥栴}具體化、將文中提到的原則或規(guī)則進(jìn)行實際運用等等．
3．錯誤排除法：一般說來，對于那些與文意明顯不符或與文章內(nèi)容不相關(guān)的選項比較容易排除，但有些選項與文章內(nèi)容相符，卻與題干問題不吻合，即屬答非所問的情形，也應(yīng)作為錯誤項予以排除，尤其是那些從文章中摘錄的句子，要特別小心，它們很有可能是干擾項．除了驗證其是否能回答所提問題外，還要看它是否回答了問題的主要方面，也就是說看它是不是最佳答案，如果它只能回答所提問題的一個側(cè)面或還有比它更合適的選項，都要毫不猶豫地將其排除．
4．信息補(bǔ)全法：前面講到，廣告類閱讀材料的一大特點就是縮略詞和省略句多．考生在做題時，要注意根據(jù)文章的上下文語境將省略句補(bǔ)充完整，以便于正確地理解和答題．
