In my daily life, I never buy unnecessary snacks or expensive toys. Besides, I put most of my pocket money into a piggy bank instead of spending it casually on useless things. Saving money is a good habit for every teenager. Let’s save every coin and use money wisely all the time. 2 / 18 1 / 18 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年七年级上册英语单元测试（常州专用） Unit 7·培优卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ 一、单项填空(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 1．—What do you do with your pocket money? —I ________ half of it to the animal shelter every month.

Here are the results: Item Percentage Amount (yuan/ month) Books 35% About 30 Snacks 25% About 20 School things 20% About 15 Saving 15% About 10 Other 5% About 5 Many students spend most of their pocket money on books. They think reading is important. “I buy one or two books every month,” said Zhang Wei, a Grade 8 student. “Books help me learn new things.” Some students save part of their pocket money. “I save 10 yuan every month. I want to buy a new bike next year,” said Li Mei. However, some students spend too much on snacks. Ms. Wang, a teacher, said, “Students should learn to manage their pocket money well. Making a budget is a good idea. Write down what you buy and how much you spend. This will help you save money.” 23．How many students spend their pocket money on books? A．About 35. B．About 70. C．About 50. D．About 30. 24．What does Li Mei want to buy next year? A．Some books. B．A dictionary. C．A new bike. D．Some snacks. 25．What does Ms. Wang advise students to do? A．Buy more books. B．Stop buying snacks. C．Make a budget. D．Save all the money. B On my birthday, my grandma gave me a white money box and a set of crayons. “This is for you.” she said with a warm smile. I spent the next hour carefully painting it with bright colors and nice designs. When I finished, she put a two-dollar coin into it. “Let this be the start of your savings,” she told me. Then, she told me a story about when she was a little girl. One sunny day, she went to a fair (集市) with her dad. The air was full of sounds and smells—there was music, laughing, and the sweet smell of candy. Her father gave her a dollar. “You can choose,” he said kindly. “You can buy some candy to eat now, or you can buy one of those baby chickens.” He pointed to a box with many small, soft chickens. “If you choose a chicken, you will take it home. You must give it food and water and take care of it. It will grow up to be a hen. The hen will lay eggs. You can eat the eggs or sell them. Later, you may have more chickens and more eggs. One day, you could have a lot more than one dollar.” My grandma looked at the pretty candy. It looked very good. Then she looked at the little chickens. They were moving and making soft sounds. She made her choice (选择). “I will buy the baby chicken,” she said to her father in a loud voice. Back home, her father helped her make a little house for the chicken. He showed her how to give it water and food. Then, he smiled kindly, took her favorite candy from his pocket, and gave it to her. So, she got to eat the candy after all. Grandma looked at me kindly. “That little chicken taught me a valuable lesson about making wise choices,” she said. “And that is the story behind your money box.” Now, every time I save a coin, I remember my grandma’s story. I understand that sometimes the best choice is the one that helps you build a better future. 26．After getting a white money box, the girl ________. A．put a coin into it B．went to the fair C．put crayons into it D．made it colourful 27．Which shows the right order of the story? ①Grandma got her favourite candy from her father. ②Grandma got a dollar and a choice from her father. ③The girl began to learn how to save money. ④Grandma chose to buy the baby chicken. ⑤Grandma’s father helped build a home for the chicken. A．①③②④⑤ B．③②④⑤① C．②④⑤①③ D．②④①⑤③ 28．What does the word “valuable” mean in the story? A．Easy. B．Expensive. C．Important. D．Interesting. 29．What is the best title for this story? A．A Special Money Box B．Save for a Rainy Day C．My Amazing Birthday D．Wise Father and Daughter C Money plays an important role in our daily life. It helps us get what we need and makes our life easier. What do you do with your money? We often do two things: spend it and save it. How to spend it wisely is a useful skill for everyone. Spending money well doesn’t mean never buying what you like. It means making smart choices（选择）to use money in a good way. Families spend money on many things. They buy food, clothes, and a house to live in. They also pay for school, transport, and having fun. During holidays, like the Spring Festival, they may spend more money on gifts and nice food. Spending money helps us get what we need and enjoy life. Saving money is also important. It means keeping some money for the future. For example, you can save to buy a big thing like a new bike. A great time to start saving is after a holiday if you get some money as a gift. When you get money from your parents, don’t spend it all at once. Instead（反而）, put it into three parts: one for needs, one for small wants, and one for saving. In this way, you can balance（平衡）between spending and saving. Saving also helps when something unexpected（出乎意料的）happens. If your schoolbag gets broken, you will have enough money to buy a new one. It’s a good idea to save for a rainy day. It is good to find a balance. Don’t spend all your money, and don’t save all of it. A balance can help you live a better life. People often put their money in a bank. The bank keeps the money safe. Sometimes, the bank also gives a little money. Students can use a piggy bank at home to save coins—it’s fun to watch the coins grow. Be careful with your money. Save and spend well to have a better life. 30．According to paragraph 2, when may families spend more money on gifts and nice food? A．When their children are at school. B．When they put money in a bank. C．During holidays like the Spring Festival. D．When they need to see a doctor. 31．According to paragraph 3, what do people save money for? A．To buy a big thing like a bike. B．To give it to others as a gift. C．To spend it all one day. D．To help the bank make money. 32．How can students save money at home? A．By putting money in a bank. B．By spending all money on wants. C．By using a piggy bank for coins. D．By not buying any small things. 33．What is the best title of the passage? A．Saving money in banks B．Why we save money C．Family’s everyday costs D．Spending and saving money D Many children first learn the value of money by receiving pocket money. Parents often give their children an amount of money that they may spend as they wish. The aim is to let the children learn from experience at an early age when financial (财务的) mistakes are not very costly. At first, young children may spend all of their pocket money soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way and then know that spending must be done within a budget. Parents should not offer more money until the next pocket money is given. Older children may be responsible enough to budget larger costs like those of clothing. The object is to show young people that a budget needs choices between spending and saving. Many people who have written on the subject say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life. Paying children to do extra work around the home, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works. Pocket money gives children a chance to experience three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it. Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice (舍弃): you have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their pocket money can also open the door to future saving and investing (投资). Many banks offer free savings accounts for young people with small amounts of money. 34．Parents give children pocket money with the aim of ________. A．letting children learn to deal with money B．letting children give their pocket money to people in need C．letting children save more money for their future business D．letting children spend the pocket money on video games 35．What does the underlined word “It” refer to? A．Paying children for extra work around the home. B．The housework that children should be paid for. C．Getting children to do extra work around the home. D．The amount of money that is paid to children for housework. 36．Which of the following is the writer’s opinion on pocket money? A．Pocket money is given each week or each month by parents. B．It is necessary for the children to save part of the pocket money. C．Young children should spend all of their pocket money soon after they receive it. D．Parents should offer children more money if they spend all soon after they get it. 四、还原信息(共4小题；每小题1.5分，满分6分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Let’s imagine this: Your parents are not in for a week. You’re left with 800 yuan. 37 It would be silly to spend the money at the mall, especially if you already have great clothes, right? A smarter way to spend that money would be on key things such as food and daily needs. You’d probably also want to put part of the money aside for emergencies (紧急情况). Well, you just learned how to budget (预算). It’s all about deciding what matters the most to you and how much you want to spend on these things. 38 For example, you plan to buy a new bike and think about saving some money. However, your friends invite you to have a trip together. Thinking of the new bike, you might decide not to join them. But having a budget doesn’t mean you can’t have fun, you just have to get creative. Instead of meeting your friends at the pizza shop and then going to the movies, you could invite them to your house. You can buy frozen pizzas at the supermarket and watch a movie online. 39 If you search for budget tips, you’ll find many good ones on the Internet. You can try different methods. 40 Sometimes you may make mistakes. Don’t worry! It’s part of becoming a wise spender. A．How will you spend the money? B．It’s a lot cheaper but just as fun. C．Where can you have fun with the money? D．This way, you can find a method that works for you. E．If you budget carefully, you may save a lot of money. F．The most important thing is to decide what you really need. 五、阅读回答(共4小题；前3小题每题2分，第4小题3分，满分9分) 阅读下面短文，回答短文后问题。(前3题每题答案不超过10个词)。 Money is part of our life, so it’s important to learn smart spending. It means buying what we really need, not just following others. Some teenagers buy useless things just because their classmates have them, but we can learn to manage (管理) money well from an early age. On Leo’s 6th birthday, his grandma gave him three jars (罐子): one for spending, one for saving, and one for giving. This wasn’t just a simple gift. She wanted Leo to learn to manage his money well and use it to do meaningful things. He started a money journal (记账本) to record every cost, like buying a movie ticket or a scarf for his mom. Leo’s birthday present is more than several jars. His grandmother gave a kid the chance to learn: when we use money well, we can do both useful and kind things for ourselves and others. This idea of using money for good can also spread to communities. This spring, Green Community started a “Tree Bank” activity. Many teenagers saved their pocket money (零花钱), just like Leo, and bought 6 young trees. On Tree Planting Day, they planted them on a hill outside the city. A teenager said, “Even small coins can bring social meaning.” 41．What does smart spending mean? 42．What gift did Leo get on his 6th birthday? 43．Use one word in the text to describe Leo’s journal habit. 44．What can you do with your pocket money? Why? (Please write within 20 words.) 六、综合填空(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Every year, millions of Chinese children and teenagers receive “lucky money” during the Spring Festival. 45 you are one of them, how do you use the money? Making a plan is a wise 46 (choose). First, think about your needs and 47 (want). What do you really need to buy? What do you want to save for? Write everything 48 . Second, decide 49 to put your money. Some people like to save 50 in a bank account. Others prefer to use a piggy bank or a dream tin. You can also use part of the money 51 (help) others. Giving to charity can bring 52 (happy) to both you and those who receive it. Third, 53 your plan is ready, stick to it. Remember, a good plan 54 (help) you use your money wisely and achieve your goals. 七、书面表达(共1题；满分15分) 55．为帮助学生树立“不浪费、会规划、懂珍惜”的正确金钱观，你校英语报正在开展以“Save Every Coin”为主题的征文活动，请你根据以下要点提示和要求，写一篇短文，参加活动。 要点提示： 1.

A．lend B．send C．donate D．offer 【答案】C 【解析】句意：——你怎么处理你的零花钱？——我每个月捐赠一半给动物收容所。 lend借出；send发送；donate捐赠；offer提供。根据答语中“to the animal shelter”可知，把钱给动物收容所属于慈善捐赠行为，donate符合语境。故选C。 2．It’s important ________ us to be wise with our pocket money. A．for B．to C．with D．of 【答案】A 【解析】句意：对我们来说，明智地使用零花钱是很重要的。 for对于；to到；with和；of……的。固定句型“It’s + adj. + for/of sb. + to do sth.”中，当形容词描述事物性质（如 important）时用for，描述人的品格（如 kind）时用of，本句中important指事情重要，属于事物性质，故用for。 3．My brother likes playing _______ baseball, so I want to buy _______ baseball for him. A．/; a B．/; / C．a; a D．the; a 【答案】A 【解析】句意：我的弟弟喜欢打棒球，所以我想要给他买一个棒球。 a用于以辅音音素开头的单词前；the特指；/零冠词。play后接球类运动名词时，球类名词前不加任何冠词；第二空表示泛指“一个棒球”，baseball是以辅音音素开头的单数可数名词，需用不定冠词a。 4．My family usually makes a(n) ________ at the beginning of the year to make sure we do not spend too much money. A．budget B．surprise C．deal D．account 【答案】A 【解析】句意：我的家人通常在年初做一个预算，以确保我们不会花太多的钱。 budget预算；surprise惊喜；deal交易；account账户。根据“to make sure we do not spend too much money”可知，为了确保不花太多钱，需要规划开支，即做预算；make a budget为固定搭配，意为“做预算”。应填budget。 5．We should ________ our money on things that are really useful. A．waste B．spend C．cost D．pay 【答案】B 【解析】句意：我们应该把钱花费在真正有用的东西上。 waste浪费；spend花费；cost花费；pay支付。根据“on things that are really useful”可知，此处表示把钱花在有用的东西上，spend money on sth.是固定搭配，意为“在某物上花钱”。 6．There is ________ juice at home. Would you please get ________? A．no; some B．some ; some C．any; some D．little ; any 【答案】A 【解析】句意：家里没有果汁了。你能帮我们买一些吗？ no 没有；some 一些，常用于肯定句或表示请求的疑问句；any 一些，常用于否定句和疑问句；little 几乎没有。第一空，根据后文“Would you please get...”请求去买，可推断家里没有果汁了，应用no修饰不可数名词juice；第二空，“Would you please...”是表示委婉请求的句型，希望得到对方肯定的答复，通常用some。 7．—Why do people like watching the FIFA World Cup? —Just because the matches are full of ________. A．surprises B．fashions C．cultures D．traditions 【答案】A 【解析】句意：——为什么人们喜欢看国际足联世界杯？——只是因为比赛充满了惊喜。 surprises惊喜；fashions时尚；cultures文化；traditions传统。根据问句“Why do people like watching the FIFA World Cup?”及常识可知，人们喜欢看世界杯比赛是因为比赛充满不确定性，充满了惊喜，对应A项。 8．—What makes a good friend, Tom? —I don’t care what he looks like. What ________ is what he is like. A．depends B．matters C．cares D．agrees 【答案】B 【解析】句意：——汤姆，什么能造就一个好朋友？——我不在乎他长什么样。重要的是他是什么样的人。 depends依靠，取决于；matters要紧，重要；cares关心，在乎；agrees同意。根据“I don’t care what he looks like.”可知我不在乎外表，推测出内在品质才是重要的，“What matters is...”意为“……才是重要的”。 9．50 percent of our homework ________ about maths, and the other half ________ about other subjects. A．is; are B．are; is C．is; is D．are; are 【答案】C 【解析】句意：我们百分之五十的作业是关于数学的，另一半是关于其他科目的。 “percent of/half of+名词”作主语时，谓语动词的单复数取决于of后的名词。“homework”是不可数名词，因此50 percent of our homework与the other half均视为单数，两处都用is。 10．—Can I play computer games for another hour, Mum? — ________ It is harmful to your eyes. A．It doesn’t matter. B．Well done. C．No deal. D．You’re welcome. 【答案】C 【解析】句意：——妈妈，我能再玩一个小时电脑游戏吗？——不行。这对你的眼睛有害。 It doesn’t matter.没关系；Well done.做得好；No deal.不行/没得商量；You’re welcome.不客气。根据答语后句“It is harmful to your eyes.”可知，玩电脑游戏对眼睛有害，妈妈应拒绝孩子的请求。应填No deal。 二、完形填空(共12小题；每小题1分，满分12分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 It’s Sunday morning.

I want to buy a new bike next year,” said Li Mei. However, some students spend too much on snacks. Ms. Wang, a teacher, said, “Students should learn to manage their pocket money well.

I spent the next hour carefully painting it with bright colors and nice designs. When I finished, she put a two-dollar coin into it. “Let this be the start of your savings,” she told me. Then, she told me a story about when she was a little girl. One sunny day, she went to a fair (集市) with her dad. The air was full of sounds and smells—there was music, laughing, and the sweet smell of candy. Her father gave her a dollar. “You can choose,” he said kindly. “You can buy some candy to eat now, or you can buy one of those baby chickens.” He pointed to a box with many small, soft chickens. “If you choose a chicken, you will take it home. You must give it food and water and take care of it. It will grow up to be a hen. The hen will lay eggs. You can eat the eggs or sell them. Later, you may have more chickens and more eggs. One day, you could have a lot more than one dollar.” My grandma looked at the pretty candy. It looked very good. Then she looked at the little chickens. They were moving and making soft sounds. She made her choice (选择). “I will buy the baby chicken,” she said to her father in a loud voice. Back home, her father helped her make a little house for the chicken. He showed her how to give it water and food. Then, he smiled kindly, took her favorite candy from his pocket, and gave it to her. So, she got to eat the candy after all. Grandma looked at me kindly. “That little chicken taught me a valuable lesson about making wise choices,” she said. “And that is the story behind your money box.” Now, every time I save a coin, I remember my grandma’s story. I understand that sometimes the best choice is the one that helps you build a better future. 26．After getting a white money box, the girl ________. A．put a coin into it B．went to the fair C．put crayons into it D．made it colourful 27．Which shows the right order of the story? ①Grandma got her favourite candy from her father. ②Grandma got a dollar and a choice from her father. ③The girl began to learn how to save money. ④Grandma chose to buy the baby chicken. ⑤Grandma’s father helped build a home for the chicken. A．①③②④⑤ B．③②④⑤① C．②④⑤①③ D．②④①⑤③ 28．What does the word “valuable” mean in the story? A．Easy. B．Expensive. C．Important. D．Interesting. 29．What is the best title for this story? A．A Special Money Box B．Save for a Rainy Day C．My Amazing Birthday D．Wise Father and Daughter 【答案】26．D 27．B 28．C 29．A 【解析】本文主要讲述了作者生日时收到奶奶送的白色存钱罐，奶奶通过讲述自己童年时在集市上选择购买小鸡而非糖果的故事，向作者传达了做出明智选择、为未来储蓄的道理。 26．细节理解题。根据第一段“I spent the next hour carefully painting it with bright colors and nice designs.”可知，女孩拿到白色存钱罐后，花了一个小时精心给它涂上鲜艳的颜色和漂亮的图案，即让它变得多彩。故选D。 27．细节理解题。根据故事发展顺序：文章开头女孩收到存钱罐并开始储蓄（对应③）；接着奶奶回忆童年，父亲给她一美元并让她选择（对应②）；奶奶选择购买小鸡（对应④）；回家后父亲帮她为小鸡建房子（对应⑤）；最后父亲从口袋拿出她最喜欢的糖果给她（对应①）。因此正确顺序为③②④⑤①。故选B。 28．词句猜测题。根据最后一段“That little chicken taught me a valuable lesson about making wise choices”可知，那只小鸡教会了奶奶关于做出明智选择的宝贵一课。结合语境，此处“valuable”修饰“lesson”，应理解为“重要的、宝贵的”。故选C。 29．主旨大意题。全文围绕奶奶送给作者的“白色存钱罐”展开，并通过存钱罐背后的故事揭示了其特殊意义——它不仅是储蓄工具，更承载着关于明智选择和规划未来的教诲。因此，“A Special Money Box”最能概括文章核心。故选A。 C Money plays an important role in our daily life. It helps us get what we need and makes our life easier. What do you do with your money? We often do two things: spend it and save it. How to spend it wisely is a useful skill for everyone. Spending money well doesn’t mean never buying what you like. It means making smart choices（选择）to use money in a good way. Families spend money on many things. They buy food, clothes, and a house to live in. They also pay for school, transport, and having fun. During holidays, like the Spring Festival, they may spend more money on gifts and nice food. Spending money helps us get what we need and enjoy life. Saving money is also important. It means keeping some money for the future. For example, you can save to buy a big thing like a new bike. A great time to start saving is after a holiday if you get some money as a gift. When you get money from your parents, don’t spend it all at once. Instead（反而）, put it into three parts: one for needs, one for small wants, and one for saving. In this way, you can balance（平衡）between spending and saving. Saving also helps when something unexpected（出乎意料的）happens. If your schoolbag gets broken, you will have enough money to buy a new one. It’s a good idea to save for a rainy day. It is good to find a balance. Don’t spend all your money, and don’t save all of it. A balance can help you live a better life. People often put their money in a bank. The bank keeps the money safe. Sometimes, the bank also gives a little money. Students can use a piggy bank at home to save coins—it’s fun to watch the coins grow. Be careful with your money. Save and spend well to have a better life. 30．According to paragraph 2, when may families spend more money on gifts and nice food? A．When their children are at school. B．When they put money in a bank. C．During holidays like the Spring Festival. D．When they need to see a doctor. 31．According to paragraph 3, what do people save money for? A．To buy a big thing like a bike. B．To give it to others as a gift. C．To spend it all one day. D．To help the bank make money. 32．How can students save money at home? A．By putting money in a bank. B．By spending all money on wants. C．By using a piggy bank for coins. D．By not buying any small things. 33．What is the best title of the passage? A．Saving money in banks B．Why we save money C．Family’s everyday costs D．Spending and saving money 【答案】30．C 31．A 32．C 33．D 【解析】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了金钱在日常生活中的作用，讲解了如何明智消费以及储蓄的重要性，倡导人们在消费和储蓄之间找到平衡，从而更好地生活。 30．第二段最后一句“During holidays, like the Spring Festival, they may spend more money on gifts and nice food. ”，该句直接说明在像春节这样的假期里，家庭会在礼物和美食上花费更多，与选项C内容一致。 31．第三段第二句“For example, you can save to buy a big thing like a new bike.”，该句举例说明存钱可用于购买新自行车这样的大件物品，对应选项A的内容。 32．第四段最后一句“Students can use a piggy bank at home to save coins—it’s fun to watch the coins grow.”，该句明确指出学生可以在家用存钱罐存硬币，与选项C的表述相符。 33．根据“We often do two things: spend it and save it.”，指出文章围绕消费和储蓄两个核心话题展开，分别介绍了明智消费的方法、储蓄的意义以及两者的平衡，选项D能全面概括文章内容。 D Many children first learn the value of money by receiving pocket money. Parents often give their children an amount of money that they may spend as they wish. The aim is to let the children learn from experience at an early age when financial (财务的) mistakes are not very costly. At first, young children may spend all of their pocket money soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way and then know that spending must be done within a budget. Parents should not offer more money until the next pocket money is given. Older children may be responsible enough to budget larger costs like those of clothing. The object is to show young people that a budget needs choices between spending and saving. Many people who have written on the subject say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life. Paying children to do extra work around the home, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works. Pocket money gives children a chance to experience three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it. Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice (舍弃): you have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their pocket money can also open the door to future saving and investing (投资). Many banks offer free savings accounts for young people with small amounts of money. 34．Parents give children pocket money with the aim of ________. A．letting children learn to deal with money B．letting children give their pocket money to people in need C．letting children save more money for their future business D．letting children spend the pocket money on video games 35．What does the underlined word “It” refer to? A．Paying children for extra work around the home. B．The housework that children should be paid for. C．Getting children to do extra work around the home. D．The amount of money that is paid to children for housework. 36．Which of the following is the writer’s opinion on pocket money? A．Pocket money is given each week or each month by parents. B．It is necessary for the children to save part of the pocket money. C．Young children should spend all of their pocket money soon after they receive it. D．Parents should offer children more money if they spend all soon after they get it. 【答案】34．A 35．A 36．B 【解析】本文讨论了通过零花钱教育孩子财务管理的价值，帮助他们学会预算、储蓄和选择性消费，以及如何通过储蓄为未来做计划。 34．细节理解题。根据第一段最后两句“Parents often give their children an amount of money that they may spend as they wish. The aim is to let the children learn from experience at an early age when financial mistakes are not very costly.”可知，父母给孩子零花钱的目的是让孩子们在年幼时就从经验中学习，这时犯下的财务错误代价不会太大。由此可知，父母给孩子零花钱的目的是让他们学会和钱打交道。故选A。 35．词句猜测题。根据“Paying children to do extra work around the home, however, can be useful.”可知，这里的It指代上文的支付孩子们在家里额外工作的费用。故选A。 36．推理判断题。根据“Requiring children to save part of their pocket money can also open the door to future saving and investing.”可知，作者对零花钱的看法是孩子们有必要存一部分零花钱。故选B。 四、还原信息(共4小题；每小题1.5分，满分6分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Let’s imagine this: Your parents are not in for a week. You’re left with 800 yuan. 37 It would be silly to spend the money at the mall, especially if you already have great clothes, right? A smarter way to spend that money would be on key things such as food and daily needs. You’d probably also want to put part of the money aside for emergencies (紧急情况). Well, you just learned how to budget (预算). It’s all about deciding what matters the most to you and how much you want to spend on these things. 38 For example, you plan to buy a new bike and think about saving some money. However, your friends invite you to have a trip together. Thinking of the new bike, you might decide not to join them. But having a budget doesn’t mean you can’t have fun, you just have to get creative. Instead of meeting your friends at the pizza shop and then going to the movies, you could invite them to your house. You can buy frozen pizzas at the supermarket and watch a movie online. 39 If you search for budget tips, you’ll find many good ones on the Internet. You can try different methods. 40 Sometimes you may make mistakes. Don’t worry! It’s part of becoming a wise spender. A．How will you spend the money? B．It’s a lot cheaper but just as fun. C．Where can you have fun with the money? D．This way, you can find a method that works for you. E．If you budget carefully, you may save a lot of money. F．The most important thing is to decide what you really need. 【答案】37．A 38．F 39．B 40．D 【解析】本文主要讲述了如何合理预算和管理金钱。 37．根据“It would be silly to spend the money at the mall…”可知，此处应是询问如何花这笔钱，选项A“你将如何花这笔钱？”符合语境。故选A。 38．根据“It’s all about deciding what matters the most to you…”可知，此处应是强调确定真正需要的东西，选项F“最重要的是决定你真正需要什么。”符合语境。故选F。 39． 根据“You can buy frozen pizzas at the supermarket and watch a movie online.”可知，此处应是指这样做更便宜但同样有趣，选项B“它便宜多了，但一样好玩。”符合语境。故选B。 40．根据“You can try different methods.”可知，此处应是指通过这种方式找到适合自己的方法，选项D“这样，你就可以找到一个适合你的方法。”符合语境。故选D。 五、阅读回答(共4小题；前3小题每题2分，第4小题3分，满分9分) 阅读下面短文，回答短文后问题。(前3题每题答案不超过10个词)。 Money is part of our life, so it’s important to learn smart spending. It means buying what we really need, not just following others. Some teenagers buy useless things just because their classmates have them, but we can learn to manage (管理) money well from an early age. On Leo’s 6th birthday, his grandma gave him three jars (罐子): one for spending, one for saving, and one for giving. This wasn’t just a simple gift. She wanted Leo to learn to manage his money well and use it to do meaningful things. He started a money journal (记账本) to record every cost, like buying a movie ticket or a scarf for his mom. Leo’s birthday present is more than several jars. His grandmother gave a kid the chance to learn: when we use money well, we can do both useful and kind things for ourselves and others. This idea of using money for good can also spread to communities. This spring, Green Community started a “Tree Bank” activity. Many teenagers saved their pocket money (零花钱), just like Leo, and bought 6 young trees. On Tree Planting Day, they planted them on a hill outside the city. A teenager said, “Even small coins can bring social meaning.” 41．What does smart spending mean? 42．What gift did Leo get on his 6th birthday? 43．Use one word in the text to describe Leo’s journal habit. 44．What can you do with your pocket money? Why? (Please write within 20 words.) 【答案】41．Buying what we really need, not just following others. 42．Three jars. 43．Record. 44．I can save it to plant trees. Because even small coins can bring social meaning. 【解析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。文章主要讲述了金钱管理的重要性，通过Leo收到三个罐子作为礼物并养成记账习惯的故事，以及社区青少年存钱种树的活动，阐述了明智消费和用钱做有意义事情的观点。 41．根据文章第一段“It means buying what we really need, not just following others.”可推知明智消费的定义。 42．根据文章第二段“On Leo’s 6th birthday, his grandma gave him three jars”可推知Leo收到的礼物是三个罐子。 43．根据文章第二段“He started a money journal to record every cost”可推知描述Leo记账习惯的核心动词是record。可以填Record. 44．本题为开放性试题，需结合文章主题“用钱做有意义的事”作答，并注意字数限制。根据文章第四段“A teenager said, ‘Even small coins can bring social meaning’.”可推知零花钱可以用于公益。可以填I can save it to plant trees. Because even small coins can bring social meaning. 六、综合填空(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Every year, millions of Chinese children and teenagers receive “lucky money” during the Spring Festival. 45 you are one of them, how do you use the money?

Remember, a good plan 54 (help) you use your money wisely and achieve your goals. 【答案】 45．If /When 46．choice 47．wants 48．down 49．where 50．it 51．to help 52．happiness 53．when/once 54．helps 【解析】本文讲述了春节期间中国孩子收到压岁钱后如何合理使用，并提出了制定计划、分类需求、选择储蓄方式、帮助他人以及坚持执行计划等建议，强调了明智理财的重要性。 45．句意：如果你是其中之一/当你是其中之一时，你会如何使用这笔钱？结合句意，此处若为条件状语从句，表示“如果”，应用连词if。此处若为时间状语从句，表示“当……时”，应用连词when。此处位于句首，单词的首字母要大写。故填If/When。 46．句意：制定计划是一个明智的选择。choose“选择”，动词，空前有不定冠词a，应用单数名词，故填choose的名词形式choice。 47．句意：首先，想想你的需求和想要的东西。want“想要的东西”，名词，此处与needs并列作宾语，应用名词复数形式wants。 48．句意：把所有东西写下来。此处为“动词+副词”短语，write down表示“写下”，代词everything放中间。故填down。 49．句意：其次，决定把钱放在哪里。此处为“特殊疑问词+不定式”结构，作decide的宾语，表示“放在哪里”，应用where。 50．句意：有些人喜欢把钱存在银行账户里。此处指代前文的money，作save的宾语，应用代词it。 51．句意：你也可以用一部分钱去帮助别人。help“帮助”，动词，此处表示目的，应用不定式作目的状语，help的不定式为to help。 52．句意：捐款给慈善机构能给你和接受者带来快乐。happy“开心的”，形容词，此处作bring的宾语，应用名词，故填happy的名词形式happiness。 53．句意：第三，当你的计划准备好后/一旦你的计划准备好，(就要)坚持执行。此处引导时间状语从句，表示“当……时/一旦”，应用连词when/once。 54．句意：记住，一个好的计划能帮助你明智地花钱并实现目标。help“帮助”，动词，本文时态为一般现在时，主语a good plan为第三人称单数，应填动词help的第三人称单数形式helps。 七、书面表达(共1题；满分15分) 55．为帮助学生树立“不浪费、会规划、懂珍惜”的正确金钱观，你校英语报正在开展以“Save Every Coin”为主题的征文活动，请你根据以下要点提示和要求，写一篇短文，参加活动。 要点提示： 1.

They think reading is important. “I buy one or two books every month,” said Zhang Wei, a Grade 8 student. “Books help me learn new things.” Some students save part of their pocket money. “I save 10 yuan every month. I want to buy a new bike next year,” said Li Mei. However, some students spend too much on snacks. Ms. Wang, a teacher, said, “Students should learn to manage their pocket money well. Making a budget is a good idea. Write down what you buy and how much you spend. This will help you save money.” 23．How many students spend their pocket money on books? A．About 35. B．About 70.

I spent the next hour carefully painting it with bright colors and nice designs. When I finished, she put a two-dollar coin into it. “Let this be the start of your savings,” she told me. Then, she told me a story about when she was a little girl. One sunny day, she went to a fair (集市) with her dad. The air was full of sounds and smells—there was music, laughing, and the sweet smell of candy. Her father gave her a dollar. “You can choose,” he said kindly. “You can buy some candy to eat now, or you can buy one of those baby chickens.” He pointed to a box with many small, soft chickens. “If you choose a chicken, you will take it home. You must give it food and water and take care of it. It will grow up to be a hen. The hen will lay eggs. You can eat the eggs or sell them. Later, you may have more chickens and more eggs. One day, you could have a lot more than one dollar.” My grandma looked at the pretty candy. It looked very good. Then she looked at the little chickens. They were moving and making soft sounds. She made her choice (选择). “I will buy the baby chicken,” she said to her father in a loud voice. Back home, her father helped her make a little house for the chicken. He showed her how to give it water and food. Then, he smiled kindly, took her favorite candy from his pocket, and gave it to her. So, she got to eat the candy after all. Grandma looked at me kindly. “That little chicken taught me a valuable lesson about making wise choices,” she said. “And that is the story behind your money box.” Now, every time I save a coin, I remember my grandma’s story. I understand that sometimes the best choice is the one that helps you build a better future. 26．After getting a white money box, the girl ________. A．put a coin into it B．went to the fair C．put crayons into it D．made it colourful 27．Which shows the right order of the story? ①Grandma got her favourite candy from her father. ②Grandma got a dollar and a choice from her father. ③The girl began to learn how to save money. ④Grandma chose to buy the baby chicken. ⑤Grandma’s father helped build a home for the chicken. A．①③②④⑤ B．③②④⑤① C．②④⑤①③ D．②④①⑤③ 28．What does the word “valuable” mean in the story? A．Easy. B．Expensive. C．Important. D．Interesting. 29．What is the best title for this story? A．A Special Money Box B．Save for a Rainy Day C．My Amazing Birthday D．Wise Father and Daughter C Money plays an important role in our daily life. It helps us get what we need and makes our life easier. What do you do with your money? We often do two things: spend it and save it. How to spend it wisely is a useful skill for everyone. Spending money well doesn’t mean never buying what you like. It means making smart choices（选择）to use money in a good way. Families spend money on many things. They buy food, clothes, and a house to live in. They also pay for school, transport, and having fun. During holidays, like the Spring Festival, they may spend more money on gifts and nice food. Spending money helps us get what we need and enjoy life. Saving money is also important. It means keeping some money for the future. For example, you can save to buy a big thing like a new bike. A great time to start saving is after a holiday if you get some money as a gift. When you get money from your parents, don’t spend it all at once. Instead（反而）, put it into three parts: one for needs, one for small wants, and one for saving. In this way, you can balance（平衡）between spending and saving. Saving also helps when something unexpected（出乎意料的）happens. If your schoolbag gets broken, you will have enough money to buy a new one. It’s a good idea to save for a rainy day. It is good to find a balance. Don’t spend all your money, and don’t save all of it. A balance can help you live a better life. People often put their money in a bank. The bank keeps the money safe. Sometimes, the bank also gives a little money. Students can use a piggy bank at home to save coins—it’s fun to watch the coins grow. Be careful with your money. Save and spend well to have a better life. 30．According to paragraph 2, when may families spend more money on gifts and nice food? A．When their children are at school. B．When they put money in a bank. C．During holidays like the Spring Festival. D．When they need to see a doctor. 31．According to paragraph 3, what do people save money for? A．To buy a big thing like a bike. B．To give it to others as a gift. C．To spend it all one day. D．To help the bank make money. 32．How can students save money at home? A．By putting money in a bank. B．By spending all money on wants. C．By using a piggy bank for coins. D．By not buying any small things. 33．What is the best title of the passage? A．Saving money in banks B．Why we save money C．Family’s everyday costs D．Spending and saving money D Many children first learn the value of money by receiving pocket money. Parents often give their children an amount of money that they may spend as they wish. The aim is to let the children learn from experience at an early age when financial (财务的) mistakes are not very costly. At first, young children may spend all of their pocket money soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way and then know that spending must be done within a budget. Parents should not offer more money until the next pocket money is given. Older children may be responsible enough to budget larger costs like those of clothing. The object is to show young people that a budget needs choices between spending and saving. Many people who have written on the subject say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life. Paying children to do extra work around the home, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works. Pocket money gives children a chance to experience three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it. Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice (舍弃): you have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their pocket money can also open the door to future saving and investing (投资). Many banks offer free savings accounts for young people with small amounts of money. 34．Parents give children pocket money with the aim of ________. A．letting children learn to deal with money B．letting children give their pocket money to people in need C．letting children save more money for their future business D．letting children spend the pocket money on video games 35．What does the underlined word “It” refer to? A．Paying children for extra work around the home. B．The housework that children should be paid for. C．Getting children to do extra work around the home. D．The amount of money that is paid to children for housework. 36．Which of the following is the writer’s opinion on pocket money? A．Pocket money is given each week or each month by parents. B．It is necessary for the children to save part of the pocket money. C．Young children should spend all of their pocket money soon after they receive it. D．Parents should offer children more money if they spend all soon after they get it. 四、还原信息(共4小题；每小题1.5分，满分6分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出四个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Let’s imagine this: Your parents are not in for a week. You’re left with 800 yuan. 37 It would be silly to spend the money at the mall, especially if you already have great clothes, right? A smarter way to spend that money would be on key things such as food and daily needs. You’d probably also want to put part of the money aside for emergencies (紧急情况). Well, you just learned how to budget (预算). It’s all about deciding what matters the most to you and how much you want to spend on these things. 38 For example, you plan to buy a new bike and think about saving some money. However, your friends invite you to have a trip together. Thinking of the new bike, you might decide not to join them. But having a budget doesn’t mean you can’t have fun, you just have to get creative. Instead of meeting your friends at the pizza shop and then going to the movies, you could invite them to your house. You can buy frozen pizzas at the supermarket and watch a movie online. 39 If you search for budget tips, you’ll find many good ones on the Internet. You can try different methods. 40 Sometimes you may make mistakes. Don’t worry! It’s part of becoming a wise spender. A．How will you spend the money? B．It’s a lot cheaper but just as fun. C．Where can you have fun with the money? D．This way, you can find a method that works for you. E．If you budget carefully, you may save a lot of money. F．The most important thing is to decide what you really need. 五、阅读回答(共4小题；前3小题每题2分，第4小题3分，满分9分) 阅读下面短文，回答短文后问题。(前3题每题答案不超过10个词)。 Money is part of our life, so it’s important to learn smart spending. It means buying what we really need, not just following others. Some teenagers buy useless things just because their classmates have them, but we can learn to manage (管理) money well from an early age. On Leo’s 6th birthday, his grandma gave him three jars (罐子): one for spending, one for saving, and one for giving. This wasn’t just a simple gift. She wanted Leo to learn to manage his money well and use it to do meaningful things. He started a money journal (记账本) to record every cost, like buying a movie ticket or a scarf for his mom. Leo’s birthday present is more than several jars. His grandmother gave a kid the chance to learn: when we use money well, we can do both useful and kind things for ourselves and others. This idea of using money for good can also spread to communities. This spring, Green Community started a “Tree Bank” activity. Many teenagers saved their pocket money (零花钱), just like Leo, and bought 6 young trees. On Tree Planting Day, they planted them on a hill outside the city. A teenager said, “Even small coins can bring social meaning.” 41．What does smart spending mean? 42．What gift did Leo get on his 6th birthday? 43．Use one word in the text to describe Leo’s journal habit. 44．What can you do with your pocket money? Why? (Please write within 20 words.) 六、综合填空(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Every year, millions of Chinese children and teenagers receive “lucky money” during the Spring Festival. 45 you are one of them, how do you use the money?
