invest as much money as possible

face the risks of possible failure

D

think about nothing but success


参考答案

参考解析
解析:
答案从三四段中找。第三段作者说“Times of great change always bring out the risk-takers,” “they leave winners and losers(不是成功就是失败)”可以看出,前面所说的事情是有风险的。第四段说到失败了也要继续,顾名思义就是要敢于面对失败。四个选项意思分别是“一直依靠名人”,“尽可能多投钱”,“面对可能失败的风险”,“除了成功什么都不能想”,显然选C。

考题 When I opened the first "Body Shop" in 1976, what I wanted to do was to earn (挣) enough money to feed my children. Today the "Body Shop" is a great company growing fast all around the world. In the years since we began, I have learned a lot. Much of what I have learned will be found in this book, because I believe that we, as a company, have something worth saying about how to run a successful business without giving up what you really believe in. It's not an ordinary business book. It is not just about my life, either. The message is that to succeed in business you have to be different. Business can be fun, and can be run with love and do good. In business, as in life, I need to enjoy myself, to have a feeling of my family and to feel excited by something unusual. I have always wanted the people who work for the "Body Shop" to feel the same way. Now this book sends these ideas out into the world, and makes them public. I'd like to think there are no limits (界限) to our "family", and no limits to what can be done. I find that an exciting thought. I hope you do, too. What is the writer's main purpose (目的) in writing this text? A. To tell the reader her life story. B. To tell people how she brought up her children. C. To let people know how rich she was. D. To introduce her ideas to the reader.

考题 共用题干 第一篇From Ponzi to MadoffThe year was 1920.The country was the United States of America. The man's name was Charles Ponzi. Ponzi told people to stop depositing money in a savings account.Instead,they should give it to him to save for them.Ponzi promised to pay them more than the bank.For example,a savings account might pay you$5 a year for every $100 you deposit.Ponzi,however,would pay you $40 a year for every $ 100 you gave him to hold.Many people thought this was a good plan.They began to give their money to Ponzi.How could Ponzi make so much money for people?This is what he did with the money people gave him: He used some of that money to pay other people who gave him money.However,he also kept a lot of the money for himself. Soon he had $ 250 million.This was a kind of theft,and it was against the law. The people who gave him their money didn't think anything was wrong.

People said he gave good advice about money.They said when they gave him their money,he paid them a lot more than the bank.Madoff helped hospitals,schools,and individuals earn money.Over a period of 40 years,people gave him$170 billion.However,no one investigated what he did with the money.The people who gave Madoff their money also didn't think anything was wrong because he paid them every month.One day,Madoff didn't have enough money to pay all the people he needed to pay. That's when people discovered how Madoff worked:He was taking money from some people to pay other people,just the way Charles Fonzi did.However,this time,instead of losing millions of dollars,people lost billions.Madoff was accused of fraud,and the United States government officials arrested him.He didn't have to go on trial because he said he was guilty.In 2009,a judge sentenced him to 150 years in prison.Bernard Madoff's crime was even bigger than Ponzi'5.It was the biggest fraud in history.The lesson of this story is clear:When something seems too good to be true,it probably is!Why didn't Madoff have to go on trial?A:The officials couldn'tfind any evidence against him.B:He had friends in the government who helped him.C:He admitted he was guilty.D:He returned all the illegal money.

考题 Accounting is More Than Numbers Accounting could date back to about 7,000 years ago. People of that time relied on old accounting methods to record the growth of crops and herds. Accounting has greatly developed with the growth of joints tock companies . When you think of accounting, you may find pages of tables and numbers. That image doesn’t usually give you too much excitement. When you have your ownbusiness, though, those numbers come to mean the world to you because they give you the record of how much money you’ve earned or lost. Actually, accounting is not simply about strange dollar amounts or boring numbers; they’re your sales figures, your costs, and your profits. In other words, accounting is alanguage of business.

考题 问答题Practice 3  We all know talented people who never seem to reach their potential. These people often have great early success, then seem to fade into averages.  Those who lack persistence start out with the best intentions, but they eventually drift.  This trait is quite characteristic, for example, of people who are constantly changing careers. They become enthusiastic about their new job and feed off this momentum for a while to perform well. But when this newness wears off and they realize they aren’t incredibly committed to sticking with that job in the long term, their success begins to wane and they start to fail.

考题 问答题Practice 8  For most people the word “education” means “school” and “school” conjures up an image of a building with classrooms. But what do people think of when they hear “literacy programmes”? Probably nothing.  Living in illiteracy is such an unknown-even a little mysterious-experience. Yet today nearly a billion people are illiterate, not to mendon the 113 million school-aged children who do not attend school. Wonderful progress has been made during the last half of the twentieth century in the field of education. But still the number of adult illiterates, particularly women, rises. This is now the challenge of the twenty-first century-the thorn in the side of efforts to achieve Education for All (EFA). It has become clear that Education for All cannot be possible without Literacy for All.  However, tremendous strides have been made in literacy. How has this been possible? Who brought it about? The people behind literacy efforts must be congratulated for working against all odds to bring about this achievement. But where are they? Who are they? What are their tasks like? And their problems, challenges and rewards? What inspires them? What conditions do they work and live under?
