Here's how you can love fashion and the earth. Ethical (道德的) shopping Many people in Britain want to know more about the products they buy. They want to know how people, animals and our planet are treated when food, drinks and clothes are produced. Fairtrade The Fairtrade Foundation is based in the UK and helps farmers and workers in poorer parts of the world to earn enough money to live comfortably. The organisation asks companies that grow products such as coffee or bananas to pay fair and to provide their workers with good conditions. The companies that follow these requirements then receive the Fairtrade certificate (证书) and can sell their products with the Fairtrade mark. Free range and organic Free range farming means that farm animals spend time outside rather than being inside 24 hours a day. Meat, eggs or dairy products can be free range. Some experts say that this type of farming is preferable because it is less cruel and the animals are healthier. Many people also think that free range food tastes better and is more nutritious than traditionally farmed food. Organic food is produced using few or no chemical fertilisers (肥料) and pesticides (杀虫剂). Some people feel that organic food is safer or healthier than traditional food and that it tastes better. Ethical clothing Some clothing factories have been accused (起诉) of employing children and of allowing unsafe conditions. The British public have woken up to the question of where and how their clothes are produced. People are becoming more interested in where their clothes are made, who they are made by, and in what conditions. They want their clothes to look good AND to be ethical. 21.What should a company do to receive the Fairtrade certificate? A.Sell their products with the Fairtrade mark. B.Earn more money to live more comfortably. C.Provide good conditions for their employees. D.Follow the requirements of the UK government. 22.What does organic food refer to? A.Free range products. B.Traditionally cooked dishes. C.Farm animals living outside. D.Food that is grown naturally. 23.What does the British public care about the fashion business? A.Where the workers work. B.What the clothes are made of. C.Who the clothes are made for. D.Whether the workers are paid fair. B A call came into Jimmy Gilles's bar this past March.A newly married woman who had spent the afternoon at the dive beach bar in Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina couldn't find her wallet.She didn't care about her ID, credit cards, or $150—but her wedding ring was inside it. Gilles, 42, the boss of the bar, didn't like the idea that there was a thief at his place.So he set out to find the wallet.He spent hours looking for the footage from 16 different cameras, watching the woman's every step in the bar until she went to sit on a bench outside and left when her ride arrived.Within minutes, a young man in a hoodie approached the bench, put something in his pocket in a hurry, and walked off. Gilles posted the picture on the bar's Facebook and asked if anybody knew who the guy was.Within hours, 17­year­old Rivers Prather came and said he had taken the wallet and told Gilles he'd done it because he hadn't eaten for two days.He said he saw the ring but thought it was fake, so he took the money, and threw the wallet off the public docks into the ocean.Then he bought a sandwich. Gilles, unsure whether he should believe Prather, told the teen to meet him at the docks.There Prather revealed that he wasn't getting along with his family and lived in the woods for weeks.Gilles looked at Prather—his small stature, his ruddy cheeks—and saw him for what he was：more of a kid than a thief. But the police were already on the case, and because of the missing ring, Prather could be facing severe charges.Gilles wanted to help him somehow. Gilles recruited two local divers to search the waters where Prather had thrown the wallet.A crowd gathered to watch the two divers search in the strong current.More than an hour passed, with no sign of the ring.Gilles grew worried.Each passing minute increased the chances that the police would arrest the young man. And then a diver came out from the water with the wallet in his hand, and inside was the ring.Cheers erupted from the spectators.When Gilles called the wallet's owner, she burst into tears.She promptly dropped the felony charges against Prather for stealing the ring. But it wasn't over for Gilles.He'd been troubled about Prather sleeping in the cold woods.He told the teen he could stay with his family until the boy got on his feet again.He also gave the kid a job at his bar.“Most people would give the footage to police, but the boss chose to help me，” Prather told CBS News.“I say thank you to him every day.” 24.Why didn't Prather take away the ring in the wallet? A.Because he thought the ring was not genuine and worthless. B.Because he was too anxious about the money to find the ring. C.Because he knew nobody would be interested in buying the ring. D.Because he knew he would be charged severely if he took the ring. 25.What can be inferred about Prather according to the passage? A.He has been a thief ever since he left his family. B.He was still a kid although he looked tall and strong. C.His family didn't get along with him and give him nothing to eat. D.He left his family and was very hungry before he committed the theft. 26.Why did Gilles feel worried when the divers could not find the ring? A.Because he had to pay for it as it was stolen at his bar. B.Because the police were very likely to arrest Prather. C.Because it would disappoint the crowd gathering around. D.Because it was a wedding ring and very important to the woman. 27.Which words can be used to describe Mr.Gilles? A.Careful and creative.　　 B.Reasonable but cruel. C.Caring and merciful. D.Brave but heartless. C (2024·广西柳州期末)Not only is second­hand shopping good for the planet and your wallet, but new research finds that the more conscious (关注的) of style you are, the more likely you are to shop for second­hand clothes. It is often assumed that those who shop for second­hand clothes do so to save money or reduce their impact on the environment. In fact, according to the research, style­consciousness is a bigger predictor of second­hand shopping than frugality_or eco­consciousness. Style­consciousness is very different from fashion­consciousness. Fashion is all about the “new” , and is constantly evolving. Style, on the other hand, is about expressing long­term individual identity. Fashion shoppers are used to a continuous supply of new trends and fast fashion products. Fast fashion works quickly to replicate (复制) an ever­moving stream of fashion trends, generating large volumes of low­quality clothes. The impact of fast fashion on the environment is significant and well­documented. Globally，the fast fashion industry creates 92 million tons of waste per year. Less than 15 percent of clothes are recycled or reused. A style­conscious person expresses themselves through their clothes. These shoppers want second­hand clothes that show their personal style and values. They look for authentic and original pieces and avoid mainstream trends and fast fashion. They buy clothes that are timeless, well­made and allow them to express their individual identity. Going against the fast fashion trend, growing numbers of people are shopping for second­hand clothing. And the number of second­hand stores is also increasing. The research suggests much of this growth is due to shoppers considering themselves to be style­conscious. We hope with increasing numbers of second­hand stores, markets and online platforms selling a range of quality, pre­loved clothes at different price points for different budgets—coupled with the growing acceptance of second­hand shopping—shoppers will consider buying second­hand more often. Not only are you helping the planet, you are also likely to be doing it with style. 28.What does the underlined word “frugality” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Buying expensive items. B.Not recycling used clothes. C.Being environmentally aware. D.Not spending much money. 29.How are fashion­conscious shoppers different from style­conscious shoppers? A.They keep up with current trends. B.They take a greater interest in clothes. C.They prefer to buy low­quality clothes. D.They are more conscious of the environment. 30.Why do style­conscious shoppers want to wear second­hand clothes? A.To understand themselves better. B.To make statements about themselves. C.To express their concerns about the planet. D.To prove the value of second­hand clothes. 31.What might be a suitable title for the text? A.The More Stylish, the Better. B.Helping the Planet with Style. C.Shopping Second Hand Matters. D.How Fast Fashion Affects the Planet. D (2024·浙江宁波期末)Have you ever wondered about the universal layout (布局) of supermarkets? Smart designers are behind it, subtly tempting you to walk through each aisle and fill your shopping cart without even realizing it. Grocery store design is a carefully crafted art from both psychological and marketing standpoints, according to Reeves Connelly, who studied architectural design at the Pratt Institute. He explained there is a specific reason why fruit and vegetables are often located at the front of the store, “You'll grab the fruits and vegetables first and then hopefully feel less guilty about buying junk food later on.” Meanwhile, essential items such as milk and eggs are placed at the back of the store to ensure customers walk through other aisles with many unhealthy options like snacks and sodas, potentially increasing the likelihood of impulse purchases. There's also a reason why you often feel lost in local supermarkets. Shockingly, they move things around. Reeves explained, “They are very much aware that these strategies become less effective after you visit the store a few times and get a better sense of where everything is, so they'll regularly move the products to different aisles to confuse you. The practice is not limited to a specific store but is employed across various retail chains.” “Their little tricks always work on me，” one regular shopper admits, “I walk in to get three things and end up spending $300; that's why I hate grocery shopping，” he said. On the other hand, some shoppers are proud to declare they have never fallen into the trap. “That's why I always keep a shopping list on me，” another shopper shared. “I've started having my groceries delivered. If I have to go to the store, I never grab a trolley. If I can't carry it, I'm not buying it，” he added. 32.What is the purpose of the supermarket layout? A.To show the designer's wisdom. B.To save consumers' shopping time. C.To increase non­essential purchases. D.To provide multiple goods for choice. 33.What would the store owner probably do to make more profits? A.Put the healthy food together. B.Distribute junk food in different areas. C.Place essential items before junk food. D.Rearrange products in supermarkets regularly. 34.What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A.Most shoppers are trapped in marketing tricks. B.Shopping baskets are better than heavy trolleys. C.Making lists can be a smart act for impulse buying. D.Grocery delivery can help improve supermarket sales. 35.Where is this text most likely from? A.A business magazine. B.A psychology report. C.A research paper. D.A shopping guide. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 (2024·山东威海期末)I would feel ashamed every time I receive a new package (包裹) on my doorstep. I know that buying new stuff is bad for the planet. But every time I buy something, I get some happiness that's hard to give up. Recently a new book has given me new insights：__36__ It's the way our brains have evolved (进化). And there may be a way to break the cycle.We are evolved from simple organisms that survived because their networks of nerve cells learned to repeat rewarding (有益的) decisions. Today, we have billions of action cells in the brain. They are always forming connections to strengthen rewarding behavior. __37__ We seek out those releases in dopamine, and at the same time repeat the actions that lead to them. __38__ Maybe you weren't even thinking about buying watercolor paints. Then something reminded that you like painting, and you searched online and found they were less expensive than you expected. When they arrived on your doorstep, they were better than you thought. Your brain will be drawn to repeat the behavior that got you something unexpected and good. The best way to break the overbuying habits is not to stop buying things completely. __39__ Imagine you've formed a habit of eating chocolate before bed for comfort, even though you know you don't need the calories. You can try having milk with cocoa powder as a healthier replacement, which provides similar comfort. Once you start losing weight, the reward of being able to fit into your old clothes will feel as good as the chocolate once does. __40__ Buying used items satisfies our desire to acquire. It gives us the same good feeling of an unexpected reward without consuming more resources. A.We need that same replacement for shopping. B.Whether that approach would work is up for debate. C.Our brains especially like it, and release more dopamine. D.My desire to keep buying things isn't necessarily a personal fault. E.In this process, dopamine is released, helping us learn how to obtain a reward. F.The good feeling connected to unexpected rewards is partly why we like shopping. G.A better solution may be to replace the old, long­term harmful rewards with new ones. 第三部分　语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I was out shopping with my kids doing my best to budget (制定预算) the last of my paycheck.I saw a lady sitting beside my car with a sign that she was__41__and needed help.I had a few dollars I could__42__and a couple of bottles of water in my car, so I handed her the bottles and the__43__.

At last, we walked into a beautiful Italian restaurant for a nice dinner.We ordered wonderful food and even a glass of wine each.Halfway through our very delicious dinner, Frank and I noticed the two diners next to us seemed to be looking for something under their table and all around.The elegantly dressed woman appeared to be in her late seventies, and her much younger male companion looked like her son.The woman kept touching her ear. I asked whether she had lost an earring.The woman shook her head and looked worried.“My hearing aid，” she said.“My son finally convinced me to buy it this week, it is so expensive.” She then added that her son's eyesight was better than hers but he couldn't find it, either. No waiters seemed to be helpful, as they were very busy.And the other diners seemed unaware of the woman's trouble.Frank stood up immediately.“Let me try，” he offered.“Maybe a fresh pair of eyes will find it.” The woman said that it was very small and had the same color as the floor, adding she didn't want to bother Frank.“That's okay, I'll try.” Frank said.Then he bent down and moved a few inches at a time, with his eyes and hands sweeping back and forth. The woman sat down slowly.Her son kept his eyes focused while Frank's feet moved back and forth under the table.Meanwhile, I stood by their table, running my hand over the tablecloth, shifting the plates, etc. “Thanks，” the woman said.“But I'm afraid it's lost forever.Your dinner's getting cold.Please don't worry.” I saw tears forming in her eyes.Soon, her son sank back into his chair, too.But Frank kept looking until one of them thanked him again, and he finally gave up and sat down to eat.Ten minutes later, as we finished our dinner, the mother and son were drinking coffee, silent “I'll take one more look.” Frank said. 注意：1.续写的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 Then, he lowered himself back to the floor.________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Her son shook Frank's hand and said, “How can I thank you? ” ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 测试卷(十)　B卷　单元仿真训练卷(5) 第一部分　听力 第一节 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 Text 1 M：Look, that's me when I was eight or nine in the photo, holding a model train engine.

Style, on the other hand, is about expressing long­term individual identity.(时髦是关于‘新’，并且是不断发展的。另一方面，风格是关于表达长期的个人身份。)”和第四段中“Fashion shoppers are used to a continuous supply of new trends and fast fashion products.(赶时髦的购物者习惯了新趋势和快时尚产品的持续供应。)”可知，赶时髦的购物者紧跟潮流，故选A。 30.B　细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“A style­conscious person expresses themselves through their clothes. These shoppers want second­hand clothes that show their personal style and values. They look for authentic and original pieces and avoid mainstream trends and fast fashion. They buy clothes that are timeless, well­made and allow them to express their individual identity.(注重风格的人通过他们的服装来表达自己。这些消费者想要能体现他们个人风格和价值观的二手衣服。他们寻找正宗的原创作品，避开主流潮流和快时尚。他们买的衣服是永恒的、制作精良的，他们都用这些衣服来表达自己的个性)”可知，注重风格的购物者购买二手衣服是为了通过服装表达自己的个性，故选B。 31.B　主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段“Not only is second­hand shopping good for the planet and your wallet, but new research finds that the more conscious (关注的) of style you are, the more likely you are to shop for second­hand clothes.(二手购物不仅对地球和你的钱包有好处，而且新的研究发现，你越注重时尚，你就越有可能购买二手衣服。)”和最后一段中“Not only are you helping the planet, you are also likely to be doing it with style.(你不仅是在帮助地球，你还可能做得很有风格。)”可知，本文主要讲述关注个人风格的人越来越多地购买二手衣服，这样不仅对环境有帮助，还能穿出自己的风格，故B项“用时尚风格帮助地球”为最佳标题，故选B。 D——[语篇解读]　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了超市布局背后促进非必要消费的特殊原因。 32.C　细节理解题。根据第二段的“Meanwhile, essential items such as milk and eggs are placed at the back of the store to ensure customers walk through other aisles with many unhealthy options like snacks and sodas, potentially increasing the likelihood of impulse purchases.(与此同时，牛奶和鸡蛋等必需品被放在商店的后面，以确保顾客穿过其他过道，有许多不健康的选择，如零食和苏打水，这可能会增加冲动购物的可能性。)”可知，超市布局的目的是促进非必要消费。故选C。 33.D　细节理解题。根据第三段的“Reeves explained, ‘They are very much aware that these strategies become less effective after you visit the store a few times and get a better sense of where everything is, so they'll regularly move the products to different aisles to confuse you. The practice is not limited to a specific store but is employed across various retail chains.’(里夫斯解释说：‘他们非常清楚，当你几次光顾商店并更好地了解每样商品的位置后，这些策略的效果就会降低，所以他们会定期将产品移到不同的过道，让你感到困惑。这种做法不仅限于特定的商店，而是被各种零售连锁店采用。’)”可知，为了提高利润，店主可能会定期重新安排超市的产品布局。故选D。 34.C　推理判断题。根据最后一段的“On the other hand, some shoppers are proud to declare they have never fallen into the trap. ‘That's why I always keep a shopping list on me，’ another shopper shared.(另一方面，一些购物者自豪地宣称他们从未落入陷阱。‘这就是为什么我总是把购物清单放在身上，’另一位购物者分享道。)”可推知，带购物清单是避免冲动购物的明智之举。故选C。 35.A　推理判断题。根据第一段“Have you ever wondered about the universal layout (布局) of supermarkets? Smart designers are behind it, subtly tempting you to walk through each aisle and fill your shopping cart without even realizing it.(你有没有想过超市的通用布局？聪明的设计师在背后，巧妙地引诱你穿过每一条过道，在不知不觉中装满购物车。)”以及全文可知，文章主要说明了超市布局背后促进非必要消费的特殊原因。由此推知，文章可能选自一本商业杂志。故选A。 第二节 [语篇解读]　这是一篇说明文。文章分析了人类喜欢购物的原因以及如何改掉购物的习惯。 36.D　根据上下文应可知，本句承接上文，说明具体的见解内容。 故D选项“我想不停地买东西并不一定是个人的错”符合语境，故选D。 37.E　根据上下文可知，本句须承接上文，说明细胞形成联系加强奖励行为会释放多巴胺。故E选项“在这个过程中，多巴胺被释放，帮助我们学习如何获得奖励”符合语境，故选E。 38.F　根据后文可知，本段主要分析了喜欢购物是因为可以带来良好的感觉。故F选项“与意外奖励相关的良好感觉是我们喜欢购物的部分原因”符合语境，故选F。 39.G　根据后文可知，本段给出的建议是通过新的奖励来代替旧的不好的奖励。故G选项“一个更好的解决办法可能是用新的奖励取代旧的、长期有害的奖励”符合语境，故选G。 40.A　根据后文可知，后文提到了购买二手物品来代替购物，故A选项“我们需要同样替代的物品来购物”符合语境，故选A。 第三部分　语言运用 第一节 [语篇解读]　这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者购物时帮助了一名无家可归的女士，而第二天去买东西时，面包师给作者打了折还送了饼干，让作者认识到当我们做一件善事时，它会成倍增加，给予和做正确的事情总是让人感觉很好。 41.B　考查形容词词义辨析。句意：“我”看到一位女士坐在“我”的车旁边，举着一个牌子，上面写着她无家可归，需要帮助。A.alone独自的；B.homeless无家可归的；C.cold寒冷的；D.unhappy不开心的。根据后文“and needed help”可知，这位女士需要帮助，结合作者给了她钱和水，可知“无家可归”最符合语境。故选B。 42.C　考查动词词义辨析。句意：“我”有几块钱可以省下，车里还有几瓶水，所以“我”把瓶子和钱递给了她。A.spend花费；B.lend借给；C.spare抽出；拿出；D.make制作。根据上文“had a few dollars I could”指作者可以拿出几美元，故选C。 43.D　考查名词词义辨析。句意：“我”有几块钱可以省下，车里还有几瓶水，所以“我”把瓶子和钱递给了她。A.paycheck薪水；B.water水；C.key关键；D.money金钱。呼应上文“had a few dollars I could”指作者给了女士几美元，故选D。 44.B　考查名词词义辨析。句意：第二天，“我”只剩下12美元了，离发薪日还有一天。A.work工作；B.pay支付；C.home家；D.school学校。根据后文“I'll have to split the payment between my card”可知，作者身上钱不多了，还没到发工资的时候，pay day固定搭配，意为“发薪日”，故选B。 45.A　考查形容词词义辨析。句意：在去学校接儿子的路上，“我”想和12岁的儿子做点特别的事。A.special特别的；B.good好的；C.upset沮丧的；D.curious好奇的。根据后文“with my 12­year­old son.We stopped by our favorite”可知，他们去了最爱的面包店，因为作者想和儿子做点特别的事情。故选A。 46.A　考查名词词义辨析。句意：我们去了我们最喜欢的面包店，吃了美味的牛饼干和巧克力饼干。A.bakery面包店；B.park公园；C.field领域；D.restaurant餐厅。根据后文“I let the baker”可知他们去了面包店。故选A。 47.B　考查动词词义辨析。句意：“我”告诉面包师“我”必须把价格控制在12.25美元以下。A.save拯救；B.keep保持；C.design设计；D.deliver递送。根据上文“I was down to about $ 12”可知，作者必须把价格控制在12.25美元以下。故选B。 48.C　考查名词词义辨析。句意：“我”告诉她：“对不起，我必须用我的信用卡和钱包里的零钱来分摊这笔钱。”A.credit信用；B.ticket车票；C.change零钱；D.gold黄金。根据后文“I have in my wallet”可知，作者拿钱包里的零钱拿来付款。故选C。 49.D　考查副词/介词短语辨析。句意：相反，她把它四舍五入到12美元。A.in return作为报答；B.in addition此外；C.in turn反过来；D.instead相反。根据后文“she rounded it down to $12”可知，面包师没有多收，反而把商品的总价四舍五入到12美元。故选D。 50.A　考查动词词义辨析。句意：在“我”谢过她然后走出去之后，她叫“我”停下来，递给“我”一块额外的巧克力饼干和两块牛奶饼干。A.thank感谢；B.meet遇见；C.ask问；D.shake摇晃。结合上文面包师给作者打了折，所以作者是感谢对方。故选A。 51.C　考查形容词词义辨析。句意：在“我”谢过她然后走出去之后，她叫“我”停下来，递给“我”一块额外的巧克力饼干和两块牛奶饼干。A.equal平等的；B.cheap便宜的；C.extra额外的；D.small小的。根据后文“chocolate chip cookie and two more cow cookies”可知，面包师额外给了作者饼干。故选C。 52.A　考查名词词义辨析。句意：这是一个小小的举动，但让“我”感到很高兴收到。A.gesture姿势；B.bag包；C.amount数量；D.request要求。此处指上文“chocolate chip cookie and two more cow cookies”面包师多给作者饼干的这一举动，故选A。 53.B　考查动词词义辨析。句意：当“我”把这件事告诉“我”儿子时，他评论说，当我们做一件善事时，它会成倍增加，“我”相信这一点，“我”也知道，在“我”的心里，给予和做正确的事情总是让人感觉很好。A.depend依靠；B.comment评论；C.live居住；D.base基于。根据后文“on how when we do one act of”可知，儿子就此事发表评论，故选B。 54.D　考查名词词义辨析。句意：当“我”把这件事告诉“我”儿子时，他评论说，当我们做一件善事时，它会成倍增加，“我”相信这一点，“我”也知道，在“我”的心里，给予和做正确的事情总是让人感觉很好。A.wisdom智慧；B.appreciation感激；C.love爱；D.kindness善良。结合上文可知，作者帮助了无家可归的女士，而面包师帮助了作者，所以是当我们做一件善事时，它会成倍增加，故选D。 55.C　考查动词词义辨析。句意：当“我”把这件事告诉“我”儿子时，他评论说，当我们做一件善事时，它会成倍增加，“我”相信这一点，“我”也知道，在“我”的心里，给予和做正确的事情总是让人感觉很好。A.go走；B.receive收到；C.give给予；D.say说。结合上文作者给无家可归的人水和钱以及面包师给他们饼干可知，这是给予的行为。故选C。 第二节 [语篇解读]　本文讲述了Jane Thomas在入不敷出的情况下仍坚持动物保护工作的故事。 56.and　necessary与important为并列关系。故填and。 57.building　spend time doing为固定搭配。故填building。 58.protection　介词to后跟名词，wildlife修饰名词。故填protection。 59.to continue　be determined to do意为“决心做……”。故填to continue。 60.that/which　此处考查定语从句的关系词。指物作主语，故填that/which。 61.the　the public意为“公众”。故填the。 62.have attracted　此处考查时态。since表示“自从”过去某时，暗含直到现在，主句的谓语动词通常使用现在完成时。故填have attracted。 63.strangers　many后的名词为复数形式。故填strangers。 64.shocked　过去分词作表语，表示“感到……”。故填shocked。 65.more nicely　由后文的than可推出此处使用副词的比较级。故填more nicely。 第四部分　写作 第一节 One possible version： Can Money Buy Hoppiness? Different people have different opinions. Some think yes, while others hold the opposite. It is true that with enough money one can buy all the things one wants, and live a life of comfort and security. However, it is equally true that a lack of money causes great distress. It is a common view that money is the root of all evil. The pursuit of money drives many people to cheat and steal. In some places there is nothing that cannot be bought with money, resulting in corrupt societies where everybody is miserable. So, money does not necessarily mean the source of happiness. It all depends on how it is used. 第二节 One possible version： Then, he lowered himself back to the floor. Realizing it might have rolled a lot further away, Frank wearing his only suit crawled from table to table, moving his hand slowly one way and then the other, over patches of the floor.Minutes later, Frank stood up, looking carefully at something held between his thumb and forefinger.He handed it to the woman and asked, “Is this it, Madam？” “Yes！” she shouted excitedly, holding out her arms to hug him, and said that Frank had saved her day. Her son shook Frank's hand and said, “How can I thank you？” Then, she and her son offered to buy us coffee and dessert.But both of us declined.After wishing each other good luck, they left.Frank and I stayed and ordered coffee and dessert.We talked while enjoying the coffee and dessert.I could tell he felt very good about helping the old lady.When we asked for the bill, the waiter said, “The people at the next table already paid it.” We felt so warm.That experience reaffirmed that an act of kindness, especially coupled with perseverance, is wonderful. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
