Specifically， 75% of Millennials told T． Rowe that they track their expenses carefully， compared to 64% of Baby Boomers． And 40% of Millennials have increased their 401（k） contributions （401 养老金计划） in the past twelve months， nearly double the 21% of Boomers who did the same． 　　“When Millennials have the means to do the right thing， it appears that they often do，” Anne Coveney， a senior manager at T． Rowe Price， said in a statement accompanying the survey results． “They are managing their spending and are going against the stereotype （刻板印象） that this generation wastes money and is full of shortsighted thinking．” 　　Other findings from the T． Rowe study further show the idea of the financially－conscious Millennial： 88% of Generation Y people asked said they are pretty good at living within their means， and 67% told T． Rowe they save “by any means necessary”． Seventy－four percent said they are more comfortable saving money rather than spending it． 　　That Millennials prioritize saving over spending is not entirely surprising： many were financially hurt by the Great Recession （大萧条）， especially after graduating into an environment with a 16%－plus unemployment rate and little wage growth． Over the past several years， Millennials have drawn comparisons to the post－Depression （萧条） generation in the way that they stay out of the stock market and hold on to cash． 　　“They think like people from the Depression period largely because they experienced market problems and job security issues very early in their careers， or watched their parents experience them， and it has had a significant impact on their attitudes and behaviors，” Emily Pachuta of UBS said in an interview last year． 　　 1.Which of the following names seems to reflect the truth about Americans born between 1981 and 1997 according to the survey？（　　） A．The Laziest Generation．　 　 B．The Creative Generation． C．The Money－Conscious Generation．　 　 D．The Self－Centered Generation． 2.What percentage of Millennials track their expenses carefully？（　　） A.88%．B.75%．C.67%．D.64%． 3.What is the stereotype about Millennials according to the article？（　　） A．They tend to waste money．　 　 B．They stay out of the stock market． C．They prioritize saving over spending．　 　 D．They often increase their 401（k） contributions． 4.What are the reasons behind Millennials saving money？（　　） a．They are financially insecure． b．It’s more difficult for them to find a job． c．They often have the means to do the right thing． d．They have learned to do it from their parents’ difficult situations． A．a， b， c　 　B．b， c， d　 　 C．a， c， d　 　D．a， b， d B 　　In modern society， the pursuit of happiness has become a central concern for many people．Happiness is no longer seen as a simple state of mind but as a measurable goal that must be achieved．The rise of self－help books， motivational seminars， and even happiness apps reflects our growing obsession with achieving a happy life．But is this persistent pursuit of happiness truly making us happier， or is it creating more pressure to meet unrealistic expectations？ 　　One of the primary challenges of pursuing happiness is that people often mistake it for external achievements such as wealth， social status， or material possessions．Research suggests that while these factors can provide temporary pleasure， they rarely result in lasting satisfaction．Psychologists have found that the concept of “hedonic adaptation” — the tendency to quickly return to a baseline level of happiness after positive or negative changes — explains why material gains often fail to bring enduring happiness． 　　True happiness， experts argue， comes not from chasing external markers of success but from cultivating a mindset of gratitude and contentment．This involves appreciating the present moment and focusing on personal growth rather than external validation （外界的肯定）．For example， studies show that people who regularly practice gratitude experience higher levels of well－being， regardless of their financial or social circumstances． 　　Moreover， the pressure to “be happy” can sometimes have the opposite effect．Constantly comparing oneself to others， or feeling guilty for not being happy， can lead to anxiety and dissatisfaction．Instead of striving for happiness as an end goal， psychologists recommend embracing a balanced life that includes meaningful relationships， purposeful work， and time for self－reflection． 　　Ultimately， happiness is not a destination but a journey．It is shaped by how we choose to perceive and respond to the world around us．By focusing less on what we lack and more on what we already have， we can find joy in the everyday moments that make life worthwhile． 5.What does the concept of “hedonic adaptation” explain？（　　） A．Why people struggle to achieve happiness． B．How happiness levels vary across individuals． C．How gratitude can improve well－being．　 　 D．Why material possessions bring only temporary pleasure． 6.What contributes most to true happiness according to paragraph 3？（　　） A．Gaining wealth and social status as a permanent goal． B．Practicing gratitude and committing to self－development． C．Setting high expectations for yourself and your friends． D．Evaluating your financial achievements in comparison to others． 7.Which of the following actions would most likely go against psychologists’ advice on achieving happiness？（　　） A．Arranging a weekly family dinner where everyone shares their highs and lows． B．Writing down thoughts and feelings in a journal to better understand your emotions． C．Buying expensive items as compensation for skipping your kids’ milestone events． D．Dedicating time to offer free medical advice in your community as a doctor． 8.What is the central message of the passage regarding happiness？（　　） A．True happiness lies in celebrating the charm of daily lives． B．Material success is the foundation of lasting happiness． C．Comparing oneself to others leads to greater fulfillment． D．External recognition is the ultimate source of happiness． C 　　（2026•广东深圳期末）When I stepped into my sister’s house， I could feel the tension among the family members． My nephew was complaining that current allowances are insufficient to cover his expenses and questioning why he cannot be trusted． Financial literacy （素养） is a totally new word to his parents and， in their minds， parents are supposed to be extremely tight on kids’ money． 　　Raised in a traditional way， we are constantly told to spend a fixed amount of money in a particular period， with everything arranged． The lack of financial literacy among teens is mainly due to the fear of losing control， which has overshadowed the importance of introducing genuine ideas that can promote independence and responsibility tied to financial autonomy （自主）． This mindset implies that if you just follow the parents’ plan， seemingly you succeed in managing your money． Still， each year heartbreaking news about college students who are involved in unaffordable debt keeps popping up． 　　Having financial literacy， however， has more benefits than expected． At best， teens with self－discipline would appreciate the trust and make informed financial decisions． Even at worst， the cost of making mistakes in teenage years is relatively low and committing the mistakes honestly may open the door to some constructive feedback and financial tips． 　　True financial literacy isn’t simply about carrying out a strict or loose strategy on spending but teaching teenagers to differentiate between necessity and desire， and making wise choices． But managed properly， both bread and Air Jordan shoes can be obtained． With Air Jordan shoes ahead， the difficulty in making and saving money makes us appreciate the value of efforts． Budgeting， planning for your expenses， helps you make decisions of consequence and resist temptations． 　　Once teens demonstrate responsible management of cash－based expenses， it is time to consider upgrading． However， teens may not be fully equipped to travel in the complex financial landscape without enough supervision and support． After all， financial autonomy comes with responsibilities． 9.What is the function of mentioning the author’s nephew？（　　） A．To explain a difficult concept．　 　 B．To draw a persuasive conclusion． C．To give a reasonable prediction．　 　 D．To present a convincing example． 10.Why do we need financial literacy？（　　） A．It guarantees more control on money by parents． B．It stresses the necessity of producing genuine ideas． C．It helps generate independence and responsibilities． D．It increases the risk of having unaffordable debt． 11.Which pair is similar to bread and Air Jordan shoes？（　　） A．Tasty dumplings and cheap stationery．　 　B．Instant noodles and all－star game ticket． C．Worn－out jeans and plain basketball cap．　 　D．Latest electronic devices and rare goods． 12.What is the purpose of the passage？（　　） A．To motivate teens to have financial literacy skills． B．To tell reasons why teens fail to manage their finance． C．To teach teens how to spend money reasonably and wisely． D．To analyze the pros and cons of having financial autonomy． Ⅱ．应用文写作
