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. Ponzi paid them every month,just like a bank.Ponzi continued this way of working for two years.Then one day,he didn'thave enough money to pay all the people.They discovered his crime,and he went to prison for fraud.Ninety years later,people began to hear about a businessman in New York named Bernard Madoff. 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.

Finally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning... is exhaustive and time-consuming, but it takes place every year.
There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving. In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift givers always wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment, "this is just exactly what I wanted!" Well, as a matter of fact, most people would take their "always wanted" gifts back to the store to exchange for something they really wanted.
Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you"ll have to know what the person likes and shop for days before you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift package so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.Gift giving is the same thing in China and America in that （）.A、people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB、people would cash out the gift immediatelyC、people are eager to get a gift from a friendD、people are less willing to give gifts
