Economics is a way of understanding human behavior and of solving problems that characteristically involve scarcity. Economics is important because it provides a method to help make clear a wide range of problems affecting human welfare. It has traditionally been thought that economics is concerned with such broad topics as wealth and income; the production and distribution of goods; money and banking; the determination of prices; employment and unemployment; short-term changes in the level of business activity; and long-term changes in the level of business activity; and long term trends that make some nations rich and keep others poor. But economies has actually been concerned also with the welfare, working and living conditions, and freedom of the individual person. The nineteenth-century English economist Alfred Mar-shall sought to show the universal importance of economics when he said that it is a study of man in the ordinary business of life. He also noted that economics examines that part of individual social activity that is concerned with getting and using the materials necessary for health and happiness.
Economics is a study of wealth and an important part of the study of man. This is because man's character has been shaped by his daily work, and the material resources he gains from it. In general, then, economics is about individual and social behavior and values. You cannot understand much about your society without having some knowledge of economies.

A
The best Mother’s Day gift I ever received was a magnolia(木兰)tree. At first, it was a tired little thing, but it was mine, and I know I would treasure it.
Magnolia trees were my mother’s favorite. We had one in the front yard of our house when I was growing up. I can still remember Mom’s pleasure upon seeing the buds. “Oh, look,” she’d cry out every year, “the magnolia tree is going to bloom(开花)—just in time for my birthday.” And sure enough, on April 19, her birthday, the graceful pink-and-white flowers would be all over the branches, announcing the arrival of spring.
Back then, I didn’t find the blooming of a tree to be an event worthy of celebration. A new toy, a pretty dress or a trip to the amusement park—those were exciting. But my mother had a way of appreciating the smallest things as wonders. A baby’s smile, or a call from an old friend filled her with happiness.
On the first Mother’s Day following her death six years ago, I wasn’t sure how I’d manage. Reminders of my mother’s absence seemed to be everywhere.
That Sunday morning I awoke to a quiet house, with warm sun streaming through the windows. I wondered where my husband had gone with our two daughters, Kira,4, and Sophie, 9 months. As I was relaxing in bed, enjoying the peace, Kira suddenly burst through the bedroom door.
“Look outside, Mommy!” she ordered. There, in the yard, David was digging a hole. Next to him was a little tree whose roots were wrapped.
“It’s a magnolia tree,” Kira said, though I didn’t need to be told. I raised the window and called out to David. “Happy Mother’s Day!” he said.
It was. Although I didn’t have my mother any longer, I had her tree, and each year since, I’ve had her enthusiasm(激情). Now when we pull up to our house on a bright spring day, I say to my daughters, “Oh look! The magnolia’s about to bloom.” And when it does, we admire its beauty and use it as a chance to talk about my mother and her love for flowers.
What time does the magnolia bloom according to the passage?
| A. In spring. | B. In summer. |
| C. During the writer’s birthday. | D. Around Mother’s Day. |
| A. her care of children | B. her love for flowers |
| C. her devotion to family | D. her appreciation of life |
| A. the magnolia tree was just her mother’s favorite |
| B. she owned the same kind of tree as her mother once had |
| C. the same kind of tree could often remind her of her mother |
| D. the tree could take the place of her mother in her memory |
| A. describe her happy family life | B. recall her childhood experiences |
| C. show how she loves magnolia trees | D. express her love for her dead mother |
