D

We regularly hear how important consumer spending is for the economy. The story goes like this the more consumers spend, the more money circulates in the economy, which contributes to healthy job growth and profits. Keynes, a British economist, went as far as to say that individuals saving their money may actually be hurting the economy. Sounds troubling, doesn’t it?

Fear not. You aren’t actually hurting anyone else by saving money. Strong economic growth only comes from the place savings. Not consumption. In fact, economic activity should not be mistaken for economic growth. For example, somebody takes their money, walks into a store, and purchases goods. The store increases its revenue.

But what happens to all of those goods and services that people have chosen not to consume by saving their money? Simple other people are allowed to consume them. Think of it this way when you lend out your savings, you are actually saying, “Here, I am not going to consume right now, so why don’t you?” Banks simply play the middleman they collect lots of people's savings and then lend out lots of funds.

It takes an unbelievable amount of goods and services to construct a building. It takes food, shelter, and entertainment for all of the workers, as well. Without savings, it is quite impossible to finance such a construction. The coordination between savings and consumption is a necessary basis for sound economic growth. This coordination is also why consumer lending (say, to borrow a big sum of money to buy a car) is not productive, in a strict sense. It doesn't increase the net (净的) amount of wealth of an economy. Those savings could have been used to construct, say, factory equipment.

None of this means consumption and spending are “bad” things. They simply do not make us wealthier. After all, the final goal of production and savings is to consume. But to say that consumption is the engine of economic growth is to put the cart before the horse. Or, to rephrase the consumption of wealth can never make you wealthier. Happier, perhaps. Wealthier, no.

32. What is the author’s attitude towards Keynes’ theory?

A. Approving.         B. Reserved.          C. Uncertain.        D. Critical.

33. The underlined word “revenue” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_______”.

A. cost              B. reputation           C. income          D. interest

34. According to the author, which chart could show the effect of savings on economy?

35. What would be the best title for this passage?

A. The Saving Behavior of the Economy

B. Consumption a Key Concept in Economy

C. Consumer Spending and Economic Growth

D. The Truth about Savings and Consumption

第二节  (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

When we’re young children, many of us seem to have little trouble making new friends.       36      . As adults, we tend to become more guarded with new people and have less time to devote to friendships. Consequently, most of us find it much harder to make new friends. If you’ve never experienced a close friendship, even as a child, you may find it even harder. But we all need and want good friends, even those of us who may sometimes pretend otherwise.

The need for friends is instinctual (本能的). Our survival used to depend on having friends to hunt and find food with, to help us build shelter and keep our families safe.  37   They add meaning to life. They help you enjoy the good times and overcome the difficult ones. While strong relationships with friends can be a huge source of fun and pleasure, they are also important for your physical and emotional health.

Good friends can:

●    38

Even if it’s just having someone to share your problems with, friends can help you cope with serious illness, the loss of a job or loved one, the break­up of a relationship, or any other challenge in life.

● Help you to reach your goals.

Whether you’re trying to get fit, give up smoking, or otherwise improve your life, encouragement from a friend can really boost your willpower.    39

● Improve your mood.

Happiness can be infectious.   40

● Reduce stress and depression.

Having an active social life can benefit your immune system and help reduce isolation, a major factor for depression.

A. Friendships take time to form and even more time to deepen.

B. Provide support when you're going through tough times.

C. But as we age, friendships grow and develop differently.

D. Spending time with positive friends can be happy.

E. Yet they are less important nowadays.

F. It also increases your chances of success.

G. Today,good friends are just as important.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I heartedly want to be a volunteer of yours. Here is something about me.

I am a student who will graduate from senior high school. I always regard my class as our family and sacrifice my personal interests whenever necessary. Besides taking an active part in class activities, I work responsibly to build up a good reputation for the team. I respect all the people around me and I’m always willing to give a hand to those in need. I’m strict with myself, making every effort to achieve an all-round development. In time of difficulty, I always keep strong-minded.

In addition, I have a good command of English both in speaking and writing. I was in an America host family for 20 days in a summer camp, which helps me to know how to get along well with foreigners.

Looking forward to your early reply.

Sincerely yours,

Li Hua
