2."Hongbao"seems to be on everyone's lips these days.(61)Its (it) origins are rooted in history.Long ago it (62)was seen (see)as a means of protecting children from evil spirits.(63)Later (1ate),it developed  into more general best wishes and a blessing on (64)the young.In recent years,with hongbao going digital,online giants Tencent's Wechat,Baidu and Alibaba are all competing(65)to make (make)their Hongbao the (66)most popular (popular)in the country.
"I got 1.8yuan,it's fun."
"I didn't get any,I am too slow."
The war is on to grab digital cash using your cellphone.
But are these Hongbao overshadowing the true (67)meaning (mean)of the holiday?45-year-old social worker Guo Jing gives us her opinion.
"When I was young,the elder gave the younger generation a sum of money  (68)wrapped (wrap)in red paper,to wish them luck in the New Year.The amount of money is all about blessings,using round numbers like 50and 100,not like the e-Hongbao on the Wechat platform,(69)where you can just pick up a few yuan."
Anyway,please remember:the Chinese New Year holiday is supposed to be a time to relax and enjoy being (70)withyour family.

62.was seen 考查动词时态和语态.根据句中时间状语Long ago表示过去时间,用一般过去时态,且it与see之间是动宾关系,用一般过去时的被动语态.
63.Later 考查副词.later意为"后来",用于一段具体时间之后,表示从过去或将来算起的多长时间以后,但通常不指从现在算起的多久以后.
64.the 考查冠词.定冠词"the+形容词"表示一类人.
65.to make 考查动词不定式.此处动词不定式作结果状语.
66.most popular 考查最高级.因有定冠词the,要用形容词最高级.
67.meaning 考查名词.定冠词the后接名词,mean的名词是meaning.
68.wrapped 考查过去分词.money与wrap之间是动宾关系,用过去分词短语wrapped in red paper作定语修饰money.

17.8-year-old Mario spent one day selling lemonade in New Jersey.But he didn't do it for spending money."The people in the hospital need more medicine,"Mario said.
Mario's lemonade stand raised money after a group called Alex's Lemonade Stand,which is an organization that raises money for research on cancers that affect kids.Their research might one day lead to a cure.The organization is named for Alexandra Scott,a girl who died of cancer eight years ago when she was eight years old.Alex's Lemonade Stand actually began four years earlier before she died.That's when she announced that she wanted to sell lemonade to raise money for a cancer cure for all kids.
This year,thousands of kids across the country are selling lemonade to raise money for Alex's foundation.In Maryland,a group of kids at the Children's Guild held a fund-raiser for Alex in April.
And in Florida,Harrison began raise money for Alex's Lemonade Stand last year,when he was seven.This year,he raised more than 500dollars.Harrison hoped it could help kids by scientists finding a cure.He also dreamed of finding a cure himself."When I grow up,I'm going to invent these little‘nano-bots'that can swallow cancer.They can fight cancer for you with their little mini-lasers and stuff,"Harrison said.
"To see how that one simple idea grew into this national foundation,all of these supporters coming out in Alex's memory,it's really special for me.It's against my expectation,"said Liz Scott,Alex's mother.
What made Mario's lemonade stand even more special and amazing than most is that he,too,has cancer-six brain tumors.But Mario is not giving up.And he is determined to help other kids like him-in memory of Alex."He lost a lot of friends who were in the hospital,"said Mario's mom,Anna."And he wants to be sure that he doesn't lose anymore."

7.Envy seems to be bad-but it doesn't have to be.Researchers are finding that,if approached the right way,there can actually be an advantage.
Psychologists classify envy in two ways:negative and positive.With positive envy,you are motivated by another person's success and struggle to follow it.With negative envy,you want to cut the advantaged person down so you look better by comparison.Let's say you feel sufferings of envy after your rival(对手) at another firm gets promoted.Negative envy might drive you to destroy his success,but positive envy would inspire you to work harder and get promoted,too.
Studies show positive envy can be a great motivator(动力).In a 2011study published in the Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin,researchers in the Netherlands conducted a series of experiments with more than 200university students.Researchers found that when they caused feelings of positive envy----as opposed to admiration or negative envy----in the students,it drove them to want to study more and perform better on a test measuring creativity and intelligence.While admiration may feel better,the researchers found,it doesn't motivate performance like the pain and frustration of envy.
"Those painful sufferings of envy are there for an evolutionary(进化的) reason,"says Texas Christian University researcher Sarah E.Hill,"warning us that someone has something of importance to us."Building on this theory,Dr.Hill and others conducted a series of experiments,published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology,to test whether envy improves attention and memory----the tools needed to copy a rival's steps to success.In one experiment,half of the participants were asked to recall past feelings of envy; the other half weren't.The two groups were then shown mock(模拟的) interviews of imaginary peers.The group filled with envy paid closer attention and better recalled details about the interview subjects.In other words,envy made them more astute(机敏的).Not only can envy motivate us to reach for higher goals,it may even give us the cognitive push to get there.

32.What's the bad effect of negative envy?C.
A.It makes you lose heart and gets discouraged.
B.It has you feel motivated.
C.It makes you harm or hurt others on purpose.
D.It reminds you to struggle to follow your dreams.
33.What's the benefit of positive envy?B.
A.It inspires you to find a possible rival to try to defeat them.
B.It encourages you to work harder with a positive attitude.
C.It won't hurt your opponents in the same firm.
D.It won't destroy your success at another firm.
34.Compared to admiration,positive envy canD.
A.make you feel worse in all sides
B.be more likely to get you to admire others
C.make you feel the pain in your performance
D.be more likely to get you inspired to get success
35.What is the main idea of the passage?C
A.Envy seems to be bad.
B.Keep your envy in secret.
C.Make full use of positive envy.
D.Forget about your envy now.
14.China dropped its decades-long,one-child policy last year to allow each family to have two children.This change has put 270million married women of childbearing age in the position of choosing between family and work.The employers also face big challenges as more female workers will have two maternity leaves(产假)for a total of seven to eight months.
In a survey published by classified advertising website Ganji.com,career women who might be considering having a second child were asked what kinds of pressure they might expect.More than 76percent of the women who were questioned mentioned concerns about the financial burden of raising two children,while more than 71percent said it would be difficult to balance career and family.In addition,nearly 56percent said that having a second child would definitely have a negative effect on their career.
Another survey conducted by Chongqing-based human resources webstie job.cq.qq.com found that over 70percent of job seekers believe that having a second child would make females less popular in the job market,although two-thirds of the employers said the policy will make no difference in their employment of staff.
Feng Lijuan,s senior expert on human resources at 51job.com,a leading Chinese job finding platform,said she would not say"there is prejudice against career women."Feng said Chinese women shoulder more family responsibility."It is not only about maternity leave; a female employee might only fully get back to work after three to five yeas after having her first child."
Wang Yixin,a senior employment adviser,said the positive side is that more companies are trying to attract more talents by providing support to career women."Different from before,it is not only employers choosing employees.Many talents,including professional career women,also choose employers."said Wang."According to our survey,many large companies are very open to their employees'choice of having a second child."

11.Going shopping seems easy,but actually it takes a lot of learning,especially in America.In fact,many Americans who are not so well-off often shop at"sales"or at special stores that sell things at low prices,which you may find interesting.In America,the important rule of dressing is that one should change his or her clothes every day.For example,in an American college,neither professors nor students are seen in the same clothes two days in a row.So you may find it necessary to buy more clothes than you have in China.While you are shopping in the States,you will discover that prices range considerably from time to time.The purchase of used,second-hand clothing,furniture,or other household articles may be an excellent way of saving money.Most second-hand clothes are of pretty good quality.If you are going to settle down in the States and want some furniture,you may go to a "loan closet",where furniture rents at low cost,or you may also go to a"furniture exchange"place in the community.
  Sheets,blankets,and other bedclothes go on sale in most communities twice a year.Advertisements for"white sales"on bed linen,towels,etc.,often appear in January,as well as in May,June or July.Once or twice every season,there will be"garage sales",where you can get almost anything,from a yacht to a pair of shoes,at low prices.Prices at"discount stores"and"thrift shops"are also as low as you can imagine.
  When shopping for food,you should look for special prices for various items that are put on sale weekly.To economize,it would be a good idea for you to plan the weekly menu according to what is on sale,including in it the meats,vegetables,fruits,etc.that can be bought at special prices that week.
Exchange and return policies vary from store to store.You should also keep in mind that exchange and return policies for sales items can be different from standard store policies,especially if the price of the items has been reduced.Ask the merchant about their exchange and return policies before making your purchase.Obtaining an exchange or a return without a store receipt is often difficult.So,to save yourself the headache,you'd better hold on to any paper or other proof of purchase.
