Dad suggested Brad creating a budget to set aside money each week for certain expenses."You spend only as much as your budget allows.That way,you are sure to have money for the different things you want." That night,the family made a list of the different types of things that Brad would be able to spend money on.The list included the type such as food,clothing,and entertainment.And they said a budget should also set aside a percentage of earnings as savings so that he would be able to buy something expensive in the future."It can also be your rainy day fund,"said his mom.Brad gave her a puzzled look. “A rainy day fund is there to help out in an emergency(紧急情况)，”she explained.And at last they said it was also important to set aside a little money to help others. From that day on,Brad always seemed to have enough money to do the things he wanted.The first year,he set aside $104,and he chose to give the money to the town's animal shelter.Giving money to help those in need made Brad feel good.He also used some of his savings to buy a cool new video game console.That made him feel good,too. 11.How did Brad earn his money?

D Of all the animals on Earth,none are more willing to explore()than humans.Other animals will go in search of food or water.But humans are searching for possibilities of discovery().So what caused us to explore across the world? Maybe it's in our DNA.In 1999,Dr.Chuansheng Chen carried out a study of a gene ( known as DRD4-7R.This gene is found in about 20%of all humans.This kind of people are mostly interested in taking risk,exploring.and getting new ideas.Dr.Chen found that DRD4-7R is more common in people who move around a lot than those who don't.For example,studies in Africa show that the gene is much more common in nomadic tribes(游牧的部落)than in tribes that like to stay in one place better.Several other researchers have studied this topic and found out more to support Dr.Chen's research. But can one gene be a drive for the need to explore?Dr.Kidd doesn't think so.He thinks DRD4-7 R might make people get more curious(w好奇的)，but other important sets genes also give us great minds and skilled hands.He believes that not just one gene,but groups of genes work together to create behaviors like exploration. The environment we live in also makes much difference to our need to explore.For example, during the European Age of Exploration,.explorers became rich and famous for their discoveries.This made others try to.make themselves become rich through exploration too. Therefore,their exploration was more likely encouraged by money than by genes. Maybe the need to explore comes from something inside us,such as the DRD4-7R gene.Or maybe it has more to do with what's happening in the world around us.Maybe it's both. Whatever the reason,it seems we(or at least some of us)will keep exploring the mountains,the sea,the stars,and so on because that's just what humans do. 1.What did Dr.Chen find about the DRD4-7R gene? A.It has more influence()on people in Africa. B.It could be found in most of the humans. C.It prevents the people in Africa from moving around. D.It may be more common in people who like taking risk. 2.What does Dr.Kidd think of the DRD4-7R gene? A.It isn't the only gene to encourage people to explore. B.It can encourage people to have strange behaviors. C.It is more important than all of other genes. D.It cannot be found in animals or humans. 3.What did the example of the European Age of Exploration show? A.The purpose of exploring. B.The importance of the environment. C.The advantage(优势)of exploring. D.The big changes of the environment. 4.What is the structure(结构)of this passage?
