6.I work in a US factory that produces 4,500refrigerators every day.There was one worker in this huge factory who always seemed just a little strange.I've seen him around for years but never paid him much attention.He is short and scruffy (不整洁的)and walks around this big old factory on his breaks collecting aluminum cans (铝罐).
Over the years I often ran into him as he walked to his old pickup truck on the coldest days with snow blowing and everyone with their collars turned up and their hands in their pockets.He would be there with a garbage bag full of aluminum cans.He'd toss (扔)it into the back of his truck and jump in.I'd reach my car and jump in and we'd all race to the exit of this big half-empty parking lot.
One day I was working on a broken machine in this factory and the can man came by with his bag,picking up cans.Our manager was standing there because the machine I was working on had been"down"for a couple of hours and he was getting worried that we might run out of parts for one of the assembly lines (装配线).
As I was finishing,I stood up just as the manager asked the can man what he did with all those cans.I'd never thought to ask him that question because I always just assumed he cashed them in at the recycling center.
"I give them to my neighbor.He's epileptic (有癫痫病的),"the can man said.
"You mean you've been collecting all those cans for all these years for your neighbor?"I blurted out.
"It's not much,"he said."But I give them to him.He can't hold a job."
Right then and there I found myself looking straight at him.He was wearing a T-shirt and an old red baseball cap and he had a garbage bag full of aluminum cans in his hand.I don't even know his name,but I thank him for the lesson he taught me.

59.How did the author like the can man at first?D
A.He found the man very kind hearted.
B.He didn't like making friends with the man.
C.He thought it would be better to stay away from the man.
D.He thought the man was strange because he was always collecting cans.
60.What does the underlined phrase"blurted out"probably mean?A
A.spoke out without thinkingB.screamed because of fear
C.complained angrilyD.shouted cheerfully
61.Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?D
A.The can man was actually an engineer.
B.The author made friends with the can man on a cold day.
C.The boss was angry seeing the man always picking up cans.
D.The author admired the can man when he knew the truth.
62.What does the author intend to tell us with the story?A
A.Never judge a person by his appearance.B.Helping your neighbor is helping yourself.
C It's good to observe,but even better to ask.D.Never look down on a small kindness.
3.Are you good with money?I learnt to be careful with it during my childhood.My father would give me some pocket money and tell me it should last for a whole week.So,I learnt I had to save some if I didn't want to run out of cash quickly.No surprise there:my dad was an accountant!
It's never too early to become money savvy (会理财).That's what British personal finances expert Martin Lewis thinks.He was part of a successful campaign to include financial education on the school curriculum in England.It will be embedded(植入)in maths and citizenship education.This includes children from 5to 16years old.
Lewis says:"We desperately need to break the cycle of financial illiteracy(无知)in the UK-one of the causes of our current economic crisis and a huge contributor to continued misselling epidemics (违规销售)."
Being careful with money pays off.Banks in Britain recently found themselves having to pay a large number of people who were persuaded to spend money and buy insurance policies they didn't need.Many wasted their money on investments which were not for them.Few have the patience to read the small print.
The British say‘take care of the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves'.It means you have to watch your daily expenses and not just the big purchases in your life such as houses.
Martin Lewis has made millions from his website which advises people to be thrifty(节俭) and refuses any suggestion that he is mean.The expert says in an interview with the English newspaper the Daily Express:"the better you are with your cash,the better your life can be.People think I am telling them to stop spending money but I am simply telling them to spend it wisely."
