9、eaders job is hard. 答案ACAD B Teens Lives Hit by Economy Some teenagers are crossing their dream colleges off their lists.Others are thinking of skipping their senior trips or reducing prom(毕业舞会) costs.Many are finding their work hours cut while their expenses rise. So, who exactly is punishing them?
10、Is it their parents, teachers or employers?No, its the economy. If you are like most teenagers , you probably dont understand what “recession” , “negative economic growth” and “subprime mortgage crisis(次贷危机)”actually mean.And you probably dont spend your days watching the ups and downs of the stock
11、market. Its safe to say that most teens dont know much about the economy except for one thing: its bad.But just how exactly is the economy affecting teens? “The single largest thing I have noticed is the recessions ability to affect my college choice,” said Heather Richars from Downey High School in
12、 California,US. “With the economic situation the way it is,I have thought less about going to a private or outofstate university, and more about public schools in California, mainly because of the price of tuition,”said Richars.“I had been a fan of attending a private school up until this year.” The
13、 economy cuts into other areas of teenagers lives,too. Joey Camarda,a student at Modesto High School in California,who works at an ice cream store, said, “Probably due to the economy, I have been getting less hours at my job, and because of that,I am not getting enough money to help pay for college.
14、” Tara Mooney,a senior at Beyer High School,has also begun to notice that money is tight. “Things are getting expensive,” she said.“When it comes to applying for colleges and wanting to go on senior trips,I have to pick and choose instead of doing it all.” 5The purpose of writing the passage is main
15、ly to tell us. Athe economic recession has had a big impact on teens work,life and study Bteenagers are now having difficulty in deciding which colleges to apply for Cteenagers dont know much about the economic recession Dteenagers are considering giving up their senior trips to save money 6Because
16、of the bad economic situation,Heather Richars will most probably. Ago to a private university Battend an outofstate college Cattend a public college in California Dfind a good university as he planned 7How has Joey Camarda found the recession affects him? AHe has to find more parttime jobs. BHe has
17、to help his mother do more chores. CHe has found that he had more time to study. DHis plan to pay for college will be hard to realize. 8What can we conclude from the passage? AParents punish their teens by giving them less money. BMost teens understand what negative economic growth means. CTeenagers
18、 are finding it harder to do what they want than before. DTeenagers have realized the importance of managing their own money. 答案ACDC .七选五 When I was young,my friends and I often played baseball in an alley behind our home.A woman named Mrs Shinas owned a tiny house nearby,and she used to watch us pl
