| Learning to save money when you're young is an important lesson. All good lessons and habits begin early, and saving is a skill that everyone needs. Many people-adults included-do not have a good sense of saving for the long run. I have been lucky to learn this lesson early because I have had a grass-cutting business since I was 10 years old. Of the money I make, I spend about 10 percent and save the other 90. Making sure you save and don't spend too much is a good way to build up wealth. I have put my earnings in a bank. Many teens I know spend all the money they earn, so it never has a chance to grow. Young people should realize that their teenage years are a great time to begin saving. At high school, many parents pay for almost everything, so your expenses can be small. If you have a job, you should have fun with some of the money. But you should also save some so that it will grow. Then you can begin planning for your future. When you spend money, you not only lose that money, but also lose the interest you should have earned by saving it. After high school, college is expensive and then "real" life begins, with expenses such as food and rent. If you can hold onto a good percentage of the money you earn as a teen, going to college and buying a house will be much easier. The earlier you begin saving, the more time the money has to grow. If you are in your thirties without any savings, you will always have to struggle, The earlier you begin saving, the easier it is to create a nest egg (储备金). |
| 1. According to the author, a man can build up his wealth by _____. |
| A. finding a good job B. saving money when he grows up C. buying a house D. saving money and spending less |
| 2. The author seems to believe _____. |
| A. it is hard to save money when in high school B. if you have a job, you needn't save money C. when spending one loses more than the money he pays D. going to college will be easier if you borrow money from the bank |
| 3. What can be the best title for the passage? |
| A. Saving for future B. Learning to spend less C. How to save money D. How to make money |

| Proper arrangement of classroom space is important to encouraging interaction. Most of us have noticed how important physical setting is to efficiency and comfort in our work. College classroom space should be designed to encourage the activity of critical thinking. We are in the twenty-first century now, but step into almost any college classroom and you step back in time at least a hundred years. Desks are normally in straight rows, so students can clearly see the teacher but not all their classmates. The message behind such an arrangement is obvious. Everything of importance comes from the teacher. With a little imagination and effort, unless desks are fixed to the floor, the teacher can correct this situation and create space that encourages interchange among students. In small or standard-sized classes, chairs, desks, and tables can be arranged in a variety of ways. The primary goal should be for everyone to be able to see everyone else. Large classes, particularly those held in lecture halls, unfortunately, allow much less flexibility. Arrangement of the classroom should also make it easy to divide students into small groups for discussion or problem-solving exercises. Small classes with movable desks and tables present no problem. Even in large lecture halls, it is possible for students to turn around and form groups of four to six. Breaking a class into small groups provides more opportunities for students to interact with each other, think out loud, and see how other students' thinking processes operate all essential elements in developing new modes of critical thinking. In courses that regularly use a small group format, students might be asked to stay in the same small groups throughout the course. A colleague of mine, John, allows students to move around during the first two weeks, until they find a group they are comfortable with. John then asks them to stay in the same seat, with the same group, from that time on. This not only creates a comfortable setting for interaction but helps him learn students' names and faces. |
| 1. The primary purpose of desk rearrangement is _____. |
| A. for the teacher to divide students into small groups B. to make it possible for students to interact with each other C. for the teacher to find out how students think D. to give students more opportunities to practice speaking |
| 2. Which of the following can best explain the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2? |
| A. There is not much change in educational idea over the past hundred years. B. Critical thinking was encouraged even a century ago. C. College classrooms often remind people of their college life. D. A hundred years ago, desk arrangement in a classroom was quite different. |
| 3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? |
| A. Students are allowed to change groups throughout the course in John's class B. It's impossible for students to make up small groups in large lecture halls C. A comfortable environment leads to higher working efficiency D. New kinds of desks and chairs should be made |
| 4. The author mentioned John in the last paragraph in order to _____. |
| A. create a comfortable setting for interaction B. introduce an approach of learning students' names and faces easily C. give an example that students stay in the same seat throughout the course D. describe a good seat-arrangement mode in courses with small group format |

| The 2008 National Teacher of the Year gave its prize to Michael Geisen, an American science teacher, who is thirty-five years old and a forester (护林员).
