(2024·高一下广西北海期末)Julie had always wanted a bicycle, but her grandfather wanted her to save up for it herself.So he bought Julie a piggy bank.It had an opening through which one could put money in, but the opening was not big enough to reach in and get the money out.The only way to get the money was to break the piggy bank open.Her grandfather explained that was the whole idea: the piggy bank would help save her money so that, at the end of the year, she might have enough for that bike she dreamt about.
For some time, this worked fine.Julie loved shaking the piggy bank and hearing the sound of the coins.As it became heavier, she grew more excited, dreaming about buying her new bike, and all the adventures she could have on it.
Julie thought she wouldn't break the piggy bank for anything.But one day something unexpected happened.Julie saw a piece of news on the television that a serious earthquake had happened in a nearby province.As many houses were destroyed, a lot of children became homeless.Seeing their shabby (破旧的) clothes and crying faces, Julie was sleepless that night.
Julie knew she should do something.She went to her piggy bank and was about to break it and take out the money when her mind came back to the bike, and she hesitated.Thinking of the look in the eyes of the children hoping for help in the earthquake, Julie grabbed (紧抓) the piggy bank and threw it to the ground.Suddenly, the coins rolled all over the floor.“Yes, those children need help and need the money more,” Julie said to herself.
Julie's grandfather was astounded by her behaviour.When he realized what had happened, he touched her head and said, “Good girl, you did the right thing.Grandpa is proud of you.”

(2024·高一下湖南长沙期末)Gutiérrez's life would never be the same again after finding a copy of Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy in the garbage 20 years ago.It happened while he was driving his garbage truck through wealthier neighbourhoods at night and seeing abandoned books.It aroused his desire to start rescuing books from the garbage.He used to take home between 50 and 60 books every morning.Eventually, he turned his book collection into a community library for children from lowincome families.
Colombia's capital city of Bogota has 19 public libraries.However, these libraries tend to be far away from where rural and poorer communities live.The option of buying new books is nonexistent for families struggling to make ends meet.Gutiérrez's community library is a true representation of how one man's garbage can be another's treasure.
Gutiérrez grew up poor, and his family could not afford to educate him beyond primary school.Nevertheless, his mother was a passionate reader and read stories to him every night.Her love for books left a deep impression on Gutiérrez.
Today, his makeshift community library, called “The Strength of Words”, occupies most of his home in southern Bogota, and is piled from floor to ceiling with fiction and nonfiction titles.Everything from school textbooks to storybooks can be found in his collection of more than 20,000 books! As the word began to spread about his amazing project, people began sending him many more books to grow his library.
Despite having done so much for his community, Gutiérrez is not yet content to call it a day.He continues to search through garbage cans for reading materials.Today, the Gutiérrez family does not merely want to start libraries in neighbourhoods.They want to create spaces for school children to spend their time reading.

1.B [根据上下文可知,这里主要讲做出一些改变,我们可以实现财务目标。而B项“It might be challenging to change these habits.(改变这些习惯可能具有挑战性。)”符合语境,these habits代指上文Money habits,且本句与下文But后的内容形成转折关系,所以有承上启下作用。故选B项。]
2.G [根据上文可知,这里主要讲仔细审视你现有的消费习惯,接下来应该具体说明如何审视,所以G项“This includes tracking your spending for a month and analyzing the data.(这涉及跟踪你一个月的所有支出,然后分析数据。)”符合语境,this指代上句内容,本句是对上文的进一步解释。故选G项。]
