Many people admit that they aren't prepared financially for life's unexpected challenges and emergencies. If your New Year's decision is to become more financially prepared for a“rainy day”the following tips are helpful for you to save,
Start saving now.
Set specific savings goals and break them down to a set dollar amount to save each paycheck.            Save at least a small portion of each paycheck and remain committed to saving, and then look for ways each month to increase the amount.

One of the simplest ways to find money to put toward your rainy day fund is to keep a close eye on where your money is being spent. For two or three months, try keeping track of every expense, including small ones. Once you have a better idea of where your money is going, make a budget that includes a spending and savings plan.   
Make saving automatic.
            If your goal is to save $5,000 this year, calculate the amount you'll need to save from each paycheck, then arrange to have it automatically saved into your savings account each time you get paid. Visit your bank branch and ask a banker if you can set up automatic transfers into your savings account.
Go on a spending diet.
Avoid spending any money on non-essentials for 30 days and challenge yourself to save as much as you can to put toward your rainy clay fund.             Then make a list and determine not to spend on these items for one month,

A.Track your spending.
B.Put your savings to work.
C.Do remember: Actions always speak louder than words.
D.The important thing is to start saving now, no matter how little.

E. Treat your rainy day account like you'd treat any other financial obligation(债务).
F. Review your budget at the end of every month and determine if your spending is in line with your p1an.
G. Review your budget and identify extra or non-essential expenses, such as eating out, shopping. entertainment, etc.

We all face quantities of stresses in day-to-day living, whether at work, in the home, or anywhere in between.    Here's how stress can help us on an everyday basis.
◆Sharperung your memory.
Did you ever notice that sometimes when you are stressed, your memory seems to improve? Remember that test you passed where the answers seemed to come out of nowhere?   It's because of stress hormones(荷尔蒙)that increase your alertness when it's most needed.
◆   
Successful employees turn stress into motivation. Have you ever noticed that you get the least amount of work done when you have the fewest deadlines? Too little stress can affect how  much you actually get done. When you take risks and choose to get over the difficulty, it  improves your mental toughness and self-confidence.
◆Helping you resist the attack of illness.
 Believe it or not, the right kind of stress can help your body's defenses against illness. When you get sick, stress causes you to make hormones that battle threats to  your health. That burst of stress is helpful to your immune system when your body faces a  threat.
◆Making your life more interesting.
Think about some stressful situations that we consciously put ourselves in to make life more  interesting and enjoyable, like asking someone out on a first date, conquering a known fear, or learning something new. These may not immediately come to mind when you think of stress  because of the positive outcomes.   

A.Helping you get an advantage at work.
B.Helping you get through difficult times.
C.This will happen whenever you are stressed.
D.That's one way your brain responds to stress.

E. You need a healthy immune system to help fight off diseases.
F. But they're the types that can help you achieve fulfillment and happiness.
G. But handled properly, stress can have many benefits for the body and mind.

Earth Day at 40: What Good Is It Now?
After 40 years, outsourced activism is replacing traditional Earth Day activities, and green’s gone mainstream, experts say. So what’s the point?

 
以下是这些报道的简要内容介绍,请配对它们的标题。
Where did this most popular day for couples come from? And how does it come into beings, year after year? Noel Lenski, professor of the University of Colorado, said the lovers’ holiday traces its roots to raucous annual Roman festivals held every year on February 15 and remained wildly popular well into the fifth century A.D.
The first Earth Day in 1970 was a raucous, radical teach-in that helped spur clean-air, clean-water, and endangered species legislation in the United States. Now, 40 years later, Earth Day is every day, as the saying goes. The thing is, it’s also everyday- environmentalism that has become a routine with greenness as much a marketing tactic as a moral pursuit.
Some 242 million turkeys were raised in the U.S. in 2010 for slaughter, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Agricultural Statistics Service. Last year’s birds were worth about U.S. $3.6 billion. Before the big dinner, debunk the myths, we need to know that the first “real” U.S. Thanksgiving wasn’t until the 1800s and get to the roots of Thanksgiving 2010.
Father’s Day traditionally takes a backseat to Mother’s Day, and, for the most part, dads are cool with that, experts say. Nevertheless, as traditional roles around the house gradually change, fathers are gaining more attention on their special day, at least as measured in the monetary value of gifts estimated to be given on June 19, 2011, when the holiday will be celebrated in dozens of countries.
Cookouts, fireworks, and, of course, a chance to wish Uncle Sam a big “happy birthday” —the day means summer in full swing across the United States and beyond. Besides the founders of the US, Fireworks, first authorized by Congress in 1777, are another legacy. More than 14,000 fireworks displays light up U.S. skies each year.

根据短文内容,从下框的A-F选项中选出能概括出每段主题的最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑,选项中有一项是多余项(注意:E涂AB  F涂AC)
A. Make good use of time
B. Find somewhere to write
C. The ways to write a good book
D. Don’t stop thinking
E. Keep your tools near you
F. Keep away from distractions(注意力分散)
        
Writing a book takes a strong will, hard work, and, most importantly, time. There’s no easy way to finish your first book, but we’ve got some tips that might help you. The first thing is that you should find a place to write your book. Find a place convenient and comfortable for you. Make sure you can put your heart into your writing at this place.
        
Then make sure you have everything you need around you. Have plenty of pens, paper for printing if you’re using a computer, or notebooks if you’re writing by hand. Make sure you’ve got them near you, so you don’t have to keep getting up to find things.
        
While writing your book, you should put down your magazine, turn off your mobile phone, cut off the Internet...Make sure that you will not be distracted (分心) by something unimportant. You should focus on the book.
        
Try and set aside an hour a day, or at least a few hours a week. You can pick a time when your house is quiet--whether you get up an hour earlier or go to bed an hour later. You should soon find yourself in the habit, and you may even find your hour turns into three.
        
When you’re not at your desk, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be thinking. Carry a notebook on you at all times. Write down all your ideas, no matter how weak they seem. You may only use 5% of them, but that 5% will be well worth the effort.

___________
Answer: If you are in a desert environment, try to build an underground shade shelter to avoid prolonged sun exposure, obviously only for hot climates.So you can be more comfortable in cooler temperatures to avoid sweating.If your environment is damp, use branches laid and criss-crossed on top of one another to create a solid and dry foundation for an open bed pad.Raise the foundation above ground level as much as possible.
_________
Answer: Yes, I think so.For example, if you think the best survival course of action is to look for help and civilization, don’t wait 4 or 5 days before you come to this conclusion.Take action on the 1st or 2nd day if possible while you still have strength and endurance working for you.
_________
Answer: Use dry wood and sticks to start your fire.Fire is started by using three kinds of wood: tinder, kindling, and fuel.Tinder is any kind of flammable wood shavings, usually light and wispy.You can take two pieces of dry wood, sharpen one of them and use it to drill into the other piece.Place any highly flammable objects you can find next to the drill bit.The moment the flammable object catches a spark, use a rock to swiftly tip the object onto a nest of leaves and little branches.
__________
Answer: Get an ordinary block of wood and hit it with a rock repeatedly until the wood sharpens.In this case, use the rock as your sharpener.You could also take a rock and break off some of the edges and then use another rock and some water like a wet stone and sharpen.In an ideal situation, obsidian stone would be used for its infamous sharpness.
___________
Answer: Use two more sticks to hold up a “teepee”, similar to your shelter.Place an item of your choice you think an animal will come after, if you’re lucky, the animal will be trapped.Dig a hole in the ground about 2m-3m deep and 1m-2m across.Take two thin branches and place them criss-crossed across the hole.Cover it with leaves and put something the animals like to eat.You can also put a few wooden spikes sharpened by your knife at the bottom.Don’t forget to build a ladder or you might not be able to climb out of the hole.

下面文章有4处(第1~4题)需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(A、B、C、D和E)中选出符合各段意思的小标题,并在答题纸上将相应选项的标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。

A. There are few statues in the Middle East.
B. Art is a good means for people to know about religions.
C. Artists express their feelings and opinions in their works.
D. People know more about our culture through learning art history.
E. Art is more objective than history itself.

 


A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical history courses concentrate on politics, economics and war. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions, and psychology.


In history books, objective information about the political life of a country is presented; that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective: it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly “political” artist. In his well-known painting The Third of May 1808, he criticized the Spanish government for its misuse of power over people. Over a hundred years later, symbolic images were used in Pablo Picasso’s Guernica to express the horror of war. Meanwhile, on another continent, the powerful paintings of Diego Rivera, Jose Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros – as well as the works of Alfredo Ramos Martins – depicted these Mexican artists’ deep anger and sadness about social problems.


In the same way, art can reflect a culture’s religious beliefs. For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art was almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that depicted people and stories from the Bible. Although most people couldn’t read, they could still understand biblical stories in the pictures on church walls.


By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was (and still is) its absence of human and animal images. This reflects the Islamic belief that statues are unholy. That’s why no figures can be found in or around places of interest in these regions.

The following article is to tell you how to behave better in an IELTS oral English test. Everyone will make necessary preparations for some possible topics in order to increase your performance in the interview.        What would you do if you were asked in an interview to talk about how you feel about your hometown if in fact you really dislike living there?
Some people might think that being truthful in this situation and giving a negative answer, they would not do the right thing.        Talk about how they love living there and give a positive answer which sounds more attractive.
    And giving a negative opinion of something is not important, either.                   If you have more to say by being truthful, even if it is to express a negative opinion, then that is what you should talk about.
   And follow it up with your reasons for disliking it instead of saying "I like my hometown… " and then struggle to find something to say.
We should consider how to deal with this situation in the best way.

A.Instead, they try to hide their true feelings.
