BEIJING
(News
Agency)
—
Children
in
China
today
spend
five
times
more
money
than
their
parents
did
when
they
were
young.
So
what
are
all
these
children
buying?
The
list
is
long:
iPads,
cell
phones
and
jeans
are
typical
items
that
children
“have
to”
buy.
And
they
will
do
anything
to
get
them.
They
ask
their
parents
over
and
over
until
they
buy
them.
But
parents
also
need
to
take
the
blame(责备)
for
spending
so
much
money.
They
want
their
children
to
have
the
best
things.
They
end
up
competing
with
other
parents
over
whether
their
children
have
the
latest
products.
So
it’s
no
wonder
children
find
it
hard
to
learn
the
importance
of
saving
money
rather
than
spending
it
all
the
time.
And
it’s
hard
to
save
when
companies
use
advertising
(打广告)and
clever
slogans
(口号)
to
encourage
young
people
to
buy
their
products.
They
even
encourage
children
to
keep
asking
their
parents
for
something
until
they
get
it.
Today,
you
don’t
even
need
to
have
money
in
order
to
buy
something.
Banks
give
out
credit
cards
and
loans
(贷款)
all
the
time,
so
people
are
saving
less
and
less.
We
are
used
to
carrying
lots
of
money
around.
And
if
you
don’t
have
much,
you
can
always
borrow
some.
But
this
hasn’t
always
been
the
case.
When
our
grandparents
were
young,
there
was
very
little
money
and
everyone
had
to
save
hard
for
things
they
bought.
They
only
bought
things
they
needed,
not
things
they
just
wanted.
The
older
generation
made
the
wise
expression,
“Money
doesn’t
grow
on
trees.
”
This
is
as
true
now
as
it
was
50
years
ago.
They
give
money
a
great
deal
of
value.
And
we
all
have
a
lot
to
learn
from
them.
1.
The
text
mainly
tells
us
______.
?
A.
differences
between
teenagers
and
their
parents
B.
what
is
popular
among
children
at
the
moment
C.
how
to
spend
money
wisely
D.
children’s
high
consumption(消费)
of
products
【答案】D
【解析】本题考查主旨大意题。第一段表明了本文主题——现在中国的孩子们花钱是父辈花钱的5倍,
下文说明了他们购买的东西和导致此现象的原因。所以本文主要内容是讲述孩子们对产品的高消费问题,
故选D项。
2.
Parents
are
to
blame
for
children’s
spending
a
lot
of
money
because
______.
?
A.
they
don’t
give
children
positive
guidance
in
consumption
B.
they
offer
to
buy
the
latest
fashions
for
their
children
C.
they
always
give
children
too
much
pocket
money
D.
their
consumption
habits
set
a
bad
example
to
children
【答案】B
【解析】本题考查细节理解题。根据第三段But
parents
also
need
to
take
the
blame
for
spending
so
much
money.
They
want
their
children
to
have
the
best
things.
可知父母总是想给孩子买最好的东西,
造成了孩子的高消费问题,
所以父母也该受到责备。故选B项。
3.
The
saying
“Money
doesn’t
grow
on
trees.
”
in
the
last
paragraph
seems
to
tell
us
that
_____.
?
A.
the
older
generation
understood
how
to
teach
children
to
save
B.
in
the
past,
people
attached
more
importance
to
saving
money
C.
money
has
a
great
deal
of
value
both
in
the
past
and
at
present
D.
money
is
not
easily
earned
and
we
should
be
careful
when
we
spend
it
【答案】D
【解析】
本题考查推理判断题。根据When
our
grandparents
were
young,
there
was
very
little
money
and
everyone
had
to
save
hard
for
things
they
bought.
They
only
bought
things
they
needed,
not
things
they
just
wanted.
可知祖辈们都是为买东西攒钱,
他们只买需要的东西,
而不是想要的东西。所以“Money
doesn’t
grow
on
trees.
”告诉我们挣钱不容易,
花钱要节省。故选D项。
B
???
When
you
set
a
foot
outside
of
your
door
to
drop
litter,
go
to
a
social
event
or
go
for
a
walk,
thoughts
like
"I
hope
I
don't
see
anyone
I
know"
or
"
please
don't
talk
to
me"
may
run
through
your
mind.
I've
also
said
such
things
to
myself.
Sometimes
the
last
thing
you
want
to
do
is
to
talk
with
someone,
especially
someone
new.
???
Why
do
we
go
out
of
our
ways
to
avoid
people?
Do
we
think
meeting
new
people
is
a
waste
of
time?
Or
are
we
just
lazy,
thinking
that
meeting
someone
new
really
is
a
trouble?
???
Communication
is
the
key
to
life.
We
have
been
told
that
many
times.
Take
the
past
generations,
like
our
parents,
for
example.
They
seem
to
take
full
advantage
of
that
whole
"communication"
idea
because
they
grew
up
talking
face
to
face
while
Generation
Y
grew
up
staring
at
screens.
We
spend
hours
of
our
days
sitting
on
Facebook.
We
send
messages
to
our
friends
and
think
about
all
of
the
things
we
want
to
say
to
certain
people.
???
Nowadays,
we
are
so
caught
up
in
our
little
circle
of
friends—our
comfort
zone.
We
love
it
that
they
laugh
at
our
jokes,
understand
our
feelings
and
can
read
our
minds.
Most
importantly,
they
know
when
we
want
to
be
alone.
They
just
get
us.
???
Holding
a
conversation
with
someone
new
means
agreeing
with
things
that
you
don't
actually
believe
and
being
someone
you
think
they
want
you
to
be—it
is,
as
I
said
before,
a
trouble.
It
takes
so
much
energy,
and
at
some
point,
it
is
too
tiring.
???
But
meeting
new
people
is
important.
Life
is
too
short,
so
meet
all
the
people
you
can
meet,
and
make
every
effort
to
go
out
and
laugh.
Remember,
every
"hello"
leads
to
a
smile—and
a
smile
is
worth
a
lot.
4.What

about
the
author?
A.
He
likes
to
be
alone.
B.
He
feels
stressed
out
lately.
C.
He's
active
in
attending
social
events.
D.
He's
afraid
of
talking
to
others
at
times.
【答案】D
【解析】本题考查细节理解题。根据第一段中的I've
also
said
such
things
to
myself.
Sometimes
the
last
thing
you
want
to
do
is
to
talk
with
someone,
especially
someone
new.
（我也对自己说过这样的话。有时候你最不想做的事情就是和别人交谈，尤其是和某个新认识的人。）可知，作者有时害怕和别人说话。故选D项。
5.What's
the
problem
of
Generation
Y
in
the
author's
eyes?
A.
They
rely
on
the
Internet
to
socialize.
B.
They
are
less
confident
about
themselves.
C.
They
have
difficulty
in
communicating.
D.
They
are
unwilling
to
make
new
friends.
【答案】A
【解析】本题考查细节理解题。根据第三段中的we
spend
hours
of
our
days
sitting
on
Facebook.
We
send
messages
to
our
friends
and
think
about
all
of
the
things
we
want
to
say
to
certain
people.
（我们每天花几个小时坐着刷“脸书”。我们给我们的朋友发信息，思考所有我们想对某些人说的事情。）可推断出，在作者看来，年轻一代的问题是他们依靠互联网进行社交活动。故选A项。
6.Why
do
many
young
people
avoid
meeting
new
people?
A.
They
think
it
is
troublesome.
B.
They
are
busy
with
their
study.
C.
They
fear
to
disappoint
their
old
friends.
D.
They
want
to
take
time
to
do
meaningful
work.
【答案】A
【解析】本题考查判断推理题。根据倒数第二段Holding
a
conversation
with
someone
new
means
agreeing
with
things
that
you
don’t
actually
believe
and
being
someone
you
think
they
want
you
to
be
—
it
is,
as
I
said
before,
a
trouble.
It
takes
up
so
much
energy,
and
at
some
point
or
another,
it
is
too
tiring.（和新认识的人交谈意味着同意你不相信的事情，成为他们希望你成为的人——就像我之前说的，这是一个麻烦。它需要如此多的精力，在某些时候，它太累人了。）可知许多年轻人不愿结识新朋友是因为他们认为这很麻烦。故选A项。
7.Why
does
the
author
write
the
text?
A.
To
tell
about
the
importance
of
friends.
B.
To
give
tips
on
how
to
meet
new
people.
C.
To
encourage
people
to
meet
new
people.
D.
To
introduce
the
disadvantages
of
Generation
Y.
【答案】C
【解析】?本题考查判断推理题。根据最后一段But

is
important.
Life
is
too
short,
so
meet
all
the
people
you
can
meet,
make
the
effort
to
go
out
and
laugh.
Remember,
Every
“hello”
leads

—
and
a
smile
is
worth
a
lot.（但是认识新人是很重要的。生命太短暂，所以遇到所有你能遇到的人，努力走出去笑一笑。记住，每个“你好”都能带来一个微笑——而一个微笑是很有价值的。）由此推断出，作者写这篇文章是为了鼓励人们结识新人。故选C项。
C
Around
this
time
of
year
when
the
weather
gets
cooler
in
Arkansas,
there
are
a
lot
of
homeless
people,
as
well
as
people
with
different
situations
who
just
need
help.
Oftentimes
Our
family
serves
at
a
soup
kitchen
where
they
give
out
bags
of
food
to
needy
families
in
our
area.
And
we
1l
help
put
those
bags
of
food
together
and
hand
them
out,
among
other
things.
There
are
a
lot
of
reasons
why
serving
the
community
is
important
to
me,
but
one
of
them
has
to
do
with
my
father.
My
grandfather
died
when
my
father
was
4
years
old
and
my
grandmother
?had
four
kids
all
under
the
age
of
5.
all
born
pretty
close
together.
That
was
a
time
when
things
were
so
bad
in
the
country.
There
wasn?t
work
and
often
the
family
hardly
made
ends
meet,
so
my
grandmother
put
the
kids
in
a
children?s
home
so
that
they
could
at
least
have
food
to
survive.
My
dad
said
he
never
forgot
the
local
charity
would
bring
the
kids
a
gift
for
Christmas.
The
kids
worked
hard
in
the
children?s
home
and
the
only
present
they
got
was
from
the
local
charity.
He
never
forgot
this
kindness
and
always
appreciated
the
local
charity
for
what
it
did
when
he
Was
a
little
boy.
My
dad
was
such
a
hardworking
worker-
family
meant
the
world
to
him.
I
was
the
seventh
baby
in
my
family
and
my
mother
had
me
just
after
she
turned
40.
She
was
one
of
those
high-risk
pregnancy
moms,
and
I?m
so
grateful
she
had
me.
My
mom
and
dad
made
a
happy
home
for
us,
and
I?m
so
grateful
for
that.
I
hope
my
children
are
catching
those
lessons,
not
just
from
Mom
and
Dad,
but
from
grandparents
and
everyone
else
in
their
lives.

them
has
to
do

The
year
2020
is
stormy,
but
rainbows
are
everywhere.
Across
the
COVID-19
stricken
world,
bright
and
happy
rainbows
have
become
window
colors
and
choices
on
store
shelves.
???
The
rainbows
started
appearing
all
over
Italy
within
a
few
days
of
schools
closing
for
the
first
lockdown,
back
in
March.
Crayon
drawings
were
taped
to
the
inside
of
windows;
poster-painted
banners
hung
from
balconies.
???
When
the
pandemic
came
to
Britain,
the
rainbows
came
too,
with
the
Italian
message
of
positivity
morphing
into
thanks
to
the
NHS.
Then,
during
the
months
of
lockdown,
the
rainbows
moved
inside
our
homes,
with
a
craze
for
arranging
books
by
colour
in
pursuit
of
an
aesthetically
(审美地)
pleasant
Zoom
background.
???
In
April
this
year,
the
largest
cabin
hospital
in
the
Philippines
was
completed,
divided
into
six
wards
of
different
colors.
The
colors
of
the
rainbow
were
not
only
pleasing
to
the
eye,
but
also
conveying
a
positive
and
optimistic
spirit
to
patients.
???
The
rainbow
is
to
2020
what
"keep
calm
and
carry
on"
was
to
1939.
And
just
as
"keep
calm
and
carry
on"
began
as
a
public
information
campaign
but
became
a
tea
towel
industry,
what
began
as
a
gesture
of
hope
is
now
a
big
business.
John
Lewis
reports
that
an
￡8
rainbow
bauble
is
an
early
festive
bestseller.
Tracksuit
enthusiasts
are
sitting
out
the
second
lockdown
in
Olivia
Rubin?s
￡150
rainbow
stripe
tracksuits.
???
Optimism
is
the
hottest
commodity
of
2020.
But
some
people
are
irritated
by
the
way
consumer
culture
commodities
the
human
experience,
packaging
our
hopes
and
dreams
as
if
they
were
just
another
product
in
the
warehouse
(仓库).
But
the
fashion
editor-turned-designer
JJ
Martin
says,
"It?s
great
to
have
the
colourful
dress,
but
the
magic
of
a
rainbow
isn?t
really
about
the
pot
of
gold.
What
actually
counts
is
the
flame
you
turn
on
inside
yourself."
12.
Where
might
people
see
the
rainbow?
A.
In
the
study
with
the
books
sorted
by
color.
B.
In
the
Italian
message
of
thanks
to
the
NHS.
C.
On
the
banners
of
the
schools
under
lockdown.
D.
On
the
outside
of
Britain?s
largest
cabin
hospital.
【答案】A
【解析】根据第三段中Then,

the
rainbows

our
homes,
with
a
craze
for
arranging
books
by
colour
in

of
an
aesthetically

13.
What
does
the
underlined
word
"irritated"
in
Paragraph
6
probably
mean?
A.
Embarrassed.
B.
Fascinated.
C.
Challenged.
D.
Angered.
【答案】D
【解析】根据最后一段中“packaging
our
hopes
and
dreams
as
if
they
were
just
another
product
in
the
warehouse
(仓库).（将我们的希望和梦想包装得好像它们只是仓库里的另一件产品）”，以及Optimism
is
the
hottest
commodity
of
2020.与下文的转折关系可知，划线词所在句表示“但有些人对消费文化将人类体验商品化的方式感到恼火。”由此可知，irritated的意思是“被激怒”，故选D项。
14.
What
do
the
campaigns
in
1939
and
in
2020
have
in

Can

Happiness?
?
?
?
?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
happiness.
It
all
depends
on
how
it
is
used.
If
we
make
honest
and
sensible
use
of
money,
it
can
be
a
stepping-stone
to
happiness.
Although
money
cannot
buy
happiness,
it
can
make
happiness
possible
if
it
is
employed
sensibly.

BEIJING
(News
Agency)
—
Children
in
China
today
spend
five
times
more
money
than
their
parents
did
when
they
were
young.
So
what
are
all
these
children
buying?
The
list
is
long:
iPads,
cell
phones
and
jeans
are
typical
items
that
children
“have
to”
buy.
And
they
will
do
anything
to
get
them.
They
ask
their
parents
over
and
over
until
they
buy
them.
But
parents
also
need
to
take
the
blame(责备)
for
spending
so
much
money.
They
want
their
children
to
have
the
best
things.
They
end
up
competing
with
other
parents
over
whether
their
children
have
the
latest
products.
So
it’s
no
wonder
children
find
it
hard
to
learn
the
importance
of
saving
money
rather
than
spending
it
all
the
time.
And
it’s
hard
to
save
when
companies
use
advertising
(打广告)and
clever
slogans
(口号)
to
encourage
young
people
to
buy
their
products.
They
even
encourage
children
to
keep
asking
their
parents
for
something
until
they
get
it.
Today,
you
don’t
even
need
to
have
money
in
order
to
buy
something.
Banks
give
out
credit
cards
and
loans
(贷款)
all
the
time,
so
people
are
saving
less
and
less.
We
are
used
to
carrying
lots
of
money
around.
And
if
you
don’t
have
much,
you
can
always
borrow
some.
But
this
hasn’t
always
been
the
case.
When
our
grandparents
were
young,
there
was
very
little
money
and
everyone
had
to
save
hard
for
things
they
bought.
They
only
bought
things
they
needed,
not
things
they
just
wanted.
The
older
generation
made
the
wise
expression,
“Money
doesn’t
grow
on
trees.
”
This
is
as
true
now
as
it
was
50
years
ago.
They
give
money
a
great
deal
of
value.
And
we
all
have
a
lot
to
learn
from
them.
1.
The
text
mainly
tells
us
______.
?
A.
differences
between
teenagers
and
their
parents
B.
what
is
popular
among
children
at
the
moment
C.
how
to
spend
money
wisely
D.
children’s
high
consumption(消费)
of
products
2.
Parents
are
to
blame
for
children’s
spending
a
lot
of
money
because
______.
?
A.
they
don’t
give
children
positive
guidance
in
consumption
B.
they
offer
to
buy
the
latest
fashions
for
their
children
C.
they
always
give
children
too
much
pocket
money
D.
their
consumption
habits
set
a
bad
example
to
children
3.
The
saying
“Money
doesn’t
grow
on
trees.
”
in
the
last
paragraph
seems
to
tell
us
that
_____.
?
A.
the
older
generation
understood
how
to
teach
children
to
save
B.
in
the
past,
people
attached
more
importance
to
saving
money
C.
money
has
a
great
deal
of
value
both
in
the
past
and
at
present
D.
money
is
not
easily
earned
and
we
should
be
careful
when
we
spend
it
B
???
When
you
set
a
foot
outside
of
your
door
to
drop
litter,
go
to
a
social
event
or
go
for
a
walk,
thoughts
like
"I
hope
I
don't
see
anyone
I
know"
or
"
please
don't
talk
to
me"
may
run
through
your
mind.
I've
also
said
such
things
to
myself.
Sometimes
the
last
thing
you
want
to
do
is
to
talk
with
someone,
especially
someone
new.
???
Why
do
we
go
out
of
our
ways
to
avoid
people?
Do
we
think
meeting
new
people
is
a
waste
of
time?
Or
are
we
just
lazy,
thinking
that
meeting
someone
new
really
is
a
trouble?
???
Communication
is
the
key
to
life.
We
have
been
told
that
many
times.
Take
the
past
generations,
like
our
parents,
for
example.
They
seem
to
take
full
advantage
of
that
whole
"communication"
idea
because
they
grew
up
talking
face
to
face
while
Generation
Y
grew
up
staring
at
screens.
We
spend
hours
of
our
days
sitting
on
Facebook.
We
send
messages
to
our
friends
and
think
about
all
of
the
things
we
want
to
say
to
certain
people.
???
Nowadays,
we
are
so
caught
up
in
our
little
circle
of
friends—our
comfort
zone.
We
love
it
that
they
laugh
at
our
jokes,
understand
our
feelings
and
can
read
our
minds.
Most
importantly,
they
know
when
we
want
to
be
alone.
They
just
get
us.
???
Holding
a
conversation
with
someone
new
means
agreeing
with
things
that
you
don't
actually
believe
and
being
someone
you
think
they
want
you
to
be—it
is,
as
I
said
before,
a
trouble.
It
takes
so
much
energy,
and
at
some
point,
it
is
too
tiring.
???
But
meeting
new
people
is
important.
Life
is
too
short,
so
meet
all
the
people
you
can
meet,
and
make
every
effort
to
go
out
and
laugh.
Remember,
every
"hello"
leads
to
a
smile—and
a
smile
is
worth
a
lot.

Y.
C
Around
this
time
of
year
when
the
weather
gets
cooler
in
Arkansas,
there
are
a
lot
of
homeless
people,
as
well
as
people
with
different
situations
who
just
need
help.
Oftentimes
Our
family
serves
at
a
soup
kitchen
where
they
give
out
bags
of
food
to
needy
families
in
our
area.
And
we
1l
help
put
those
bags
of
food
together
and
hand
them
out,
among
other
things.
There
are
a
lot
of
reasons
why
serving
the
community
is
important
to
me,
but
one
of
them
has
to
do
with
my
father.
My
grandfather
died
when
my
father
was
4
years
old
and
my
grandmother
?had
four
kids
all
under
the
age
of
5.
all
born
pretty
close
together.
That
was
a
time
when
things
were
so
bad
in
the
country.
There
wasn?t
work
and
often
the
family
hardly
made
ends
meet,
so
my
grandmother
put
the
kids
in
a
children?s
home
so
that
they
could
at
least
have
food
to
survive.
My
dad
said
he
never
forgot
the
local
charity
would
bring
the
kids
a
gift
for
Christmas.
The
kids
worked
hard
in
the
children?s
home
and
the
only
present
they
got
was
from
the
local
charity.
He
never
forgot
this
kindness
and
always
appreciated
the
local
charity
for
what
it
did
when
he
Was
a
little
boy.
My
dad
was
such
a
hardworking
worker-
family
meant
the
world
to
him.
I
was
the
seventh
baby
in
my
family
and
my
mother
had
me
just
after
she
turned
40.
She
was
one
of
those
high-risk
pregnancy
moms,
and
I?m
so
grateful
she
had
me.
My
mom
and
dad
made
a
happy
home
for
us,
and
I?m
so
grateful
for
that.
I
hope
my
children
are
catching
those
lessons,
not
just
from
Mom
and
Dad,
but
from
grandparents
and
everyone
else
in
their
lives.

The
year
2020
is
stormy,
but
rainbows
are
everywhere.
Across
the
COVID-19
stricken
world,
bright
and
happy
rainbows
have
become
window
colors
and
choices
on
store
shelves.
???
The
rainbows
started
appearing
all
over
Italy
within
a
few
days
of
schools
closing
for
the
first
lockdown,
back
in
March.
Crayon
drawings
were
taped
to
the
inside
of
windows;
poster-painted
banners
hung
from
balconies.
???
When
the
pandemic
came
to
Britain,
the
rainbows
came
too,
with
the
Italian
message
of
positivity
morphing
into
thanks
to
the
NHS.
Then,
during
the
months
of
lockdown,
the
rainbows
moved
inside
our
homes,
with
a
craze
for
arranging
books
by
colour
in
pursuit
of
an
aesthetically
(审美地)
pleasant
Zoom
background.
???
In
April
this
year,
the
largest
cabin
hospital
in
the
Philippines
was
completed,
divided
into
six
wards
of
different
colors.
The
colors
of
the
rainbow
were
not
only
pleasing
to
the
eye,
but
also
conveying
a
positive
and
optimistic
spirit
to
patients.
???
The
rainbow
is
to
2020
what
"keep
calm
and
carry
on"
was
to
1939.
And
just
as
"keep
calm
and
carry
on"
began
as
a
public
information
campaign
but
became
a
tea
towel
industry,
what
began
as
a
gesture
of
hope
is
now
a
big
business.
John
Lewis
reports
that
an
￡8
rainbow
bauble
is
an
early
festive
bestseller.
Tracksuit
enthusiasts
are
sitting
out
the
second
lockdown
in
Olivia
Rubin?s
￡150
rainbow
stripe
tracksuits.
???
Optimism
is
the
hottest
commodity
of
2020.
But
some
people
are
irritated
by
the
way
consumer
culture
commodities
the
human
experience,
packaging
our
hopes
and
dreams
as
if
they
were
just
another
product
in
the
warehouse
(仓库).
But
the
fashion
editor-turned-designer
JJ
Martin
says,
"It?s
great
to
have
the
colourful
dress,
but
the
magic
of
a
rainbow
isn?t
really
about
the
pot
of
gold.
What
actually
counts
is
the
flame
you
turn
on
inside
yourself."
12.
Where
might
people
see
the
rainbow?
A.
In
the
study
with
the
books
sorted
by
color.
B.
In
the
Italian
message
of
thanks
to
the
NHS.
C.
On
the
banners
of
the
schools
under
lockdown.
D.
On
the
outside
of
Britain?s
largest
cabin
hospital.
13.
What
does
the
underlined
word
"irritated"
in
Paragraph
6
probably
mean?
A.
Embarrassed.
B.
Fascinated.
C.
Challenged.
D.
Angered.
14.
What
do
the
campaigns
in
1939
and
in
2020
have
in
common?
A.
They
came
to
the
same
end.
B.
They
helped
people
out
of
the
lockdown.
C.
They
conveyed
thanks
to
the
medical
staff.
D.
They
displayed
a
feature
of
the
towel
industry.
15.
What
can
we
infer
from
what
JJ
Martin
said?
A.
The
relaxation
of
mind
is
equal
to
wealth.
B.
The
significance
of
the
rainbow
is
to
lift
people
up.
C.
The
tracksuits
of
Olivia
Rubin
are
to
be
mass-produced.
D.
The
commercialization
of
feelings
is
somewhat
reasonable.

One

room,
in
?
?
?
(36)?
?
???I
saw
large
crowds
of
people.
Among
the
crowds
was
a
little
boy
?
?
?
(37)?
?
???(carry)
some
pairs
of
sunglasses
in
his
hands.
???
The
boy
was
about
10
years
old.
He
was
selling
sunglasses.
He
tried
from
one
person
to
another,
but
?
?
?
(38)?
?
???(sad),
nobody
seemed
interested
in
his
sunglasses.
Judging
from
the
?
?
?
(39)?
?
???(express)
on
his
face,
the
boy
was
very
?
?
?
(40)?
?
???(disappoint).
???
Out
of
sympathy
for
the
poor
boy,
I
gave
him
20
dollars,
?
?
?
(41)?
?
???(say)
that
I
was
not
in
need
of
the
sunglasses.
?
?
?
(42)?
?
???my
surprise,
he
became
angry.
I
didn't
know
?
?
?(43)?
?
?
??to
say
next.
Then
the
boy
said
to
me,
"Either
you
buy
a
pair
of
sunglasses
or
you
take
back
your
money.
I
don't
need
your
pity.
I
want
to
earn
money
with
my
own
hands."
I
apologized
to
the
boy,
and
I
told
him
that
I
would
buy
two
pairs.
???
The
boy
?
?
?
?(44)?
?
???(manage)
to
keep
his
self-respect
and
chose
to
make
a
living
on
his
own.
I
couldn't
help

?
?
(45)?
?
???(show)
respect
for
the
