A．What T-shirts Can Do to Help Cotton Farms B．How T-shirts Are Made in Shanghai C．How T-shirts Are Sold in Tanzania D．What T-shirts Can Teach Us 答案 57.B 58.A 59.A 60.D Passage 77 How to Make a Budget Most likely, you aren’t the family breadwinner. But doing a small job or getting a weekly allowance would put some money in your pocket. For kids and grown-ups alike, money is easy to spend. If you aren’t careful, it can be going in no time. Being responsible with your money is an important skill to learn - and the sooner you start the better. Whether you are tracking your spending or saving for something special, creating a budget can help you deal with your expenses and plan for the future. All you need are paper and a pencil - and some self-control. First, take a look at our sample monthly budget. Then, use a separate sheet of paper to plan your own. In the first two columns (栏), list your sources of income and how much you expect to earn from them. In the third and fourth columns, list what you expect to spend your money on and the amount. The left-hand total should be more than or equal to the right-hand total. If it is, you have an effective budget. Budgets are not complex, but sticking to them can be tough. When planning your budget, be realistic about your expenses. If you know that you drop $18 at a movie, don’t write $12 in that space simply because you wish you were spending less. If you are eyeing a big purchase, such as a $150 skateboard, spend less and save more until you have the total amount. No matter how attractive it may be, avoid spending your savings. One day, you will thank yourself!

　　“Who made your T-shirt?” A Georgetown University student raised that question．Pietra Rivoli, a professor of business, wanted to find the answer．A few weeks later, she bought a T-shirt and began to follow its path from Texas cotton farm to Chinese factory to charity bin(慈善捐赠)．The result is an interesting new book, ?The Travels of a T-shirt in the Global Economy(经济)．?

　　Following a T-shirt around the world is a way to make her point more interesting, but it also frees Rivoli from the usual arguments over global trade．She goes wherever the T-shirt goes, and there are surprises around every corner．In China, Rivoli shows why a clothing factory, even with its poor conditions, means a step toward a better：are for the people who work there．In the colorful used-clothing markets of Tanzania, she realizes that, “it is only in this final stage of life that the T-shirt will meet a real market, ” where the price of a T-shirt changes by the hour and is different by its size and even color．Rivoli’s book is full of memorable people and scenes, like the noise, the bad air and the “muddy-sweet smell(泥土香味)of the cotton．” She says, “Here in the factory, Shanghai smells like Shallowater, Texas．”

　　Rivoli is at her best when making those sorts of unexpected connection．She even finds one between the free traders and those who are against globalization．The chances opened up by trade are vast, she argues, but free markets need the correcting force of politics to keep them in check．True economic progress needs them both．

　　If you’re away for a week or two, whatever you do, pack light．

　　This especially applies if you are on a tour and are moving from place to place, when heavy luggage has to be loaded and unloaded from taxis, trains and planes．Unnecessary heavy luggage will spoil your mood before you’ve even arrived．Here are a few tips to keep your pack and your look light and carefree．

　　1．Use a medium-sized case, or, best of all, a good-sized carry-on case to prevent long waits at the luggage carousel(传送带)at the airport．

　　2．Lay out everything you think you’ll be needing on your trip, and then pack half of the items．Remember, less is more!Hardly will you require more than two pairs of shoes on any summer trip, one sweater, a couple of T-shirts or tops, two pairs of trousers－or even better for women, two of your dresses－a swimsuit and underwear．If you do take separates, make sure they are matching colors so that you can get maximum(最大限度的)use by mixing them．

　　3．Take only the necessities．Most hotels have such things as soap and shampoo now, so don’t trouble with a ton of toiletries unless you have sensitive skin．

　　4．Do you really need to take that hairdryer?If you don’t want to give your hair a rest, then don’t forget to pack an adapter(转接器)to make sure you’ll still be able to use your hairdryer．

　　5．Line the bottom of your suitcase with trousers, letting the legs hang over the outside edge．Then pack the rest of your travel gear(用具), with lighter materials on top．Wrap trouser legs over the pile．

　　6．Use the inside of shoes to save space：put underwear, your swimsuit and a rolled up belt in them．

　　7．Wrap anything that might break or leak in plastic bags to prevent accidents．

　　8．Relax－you’re on vacation!

If I raised the question, “What would be the last thing you would expect to happen while watching your son’s flag football game?” you probably still couldn’t come up with what happened to me and my family.
As we were sitting on the sidelines enjoying the game, a low-flying bird came swooping in attempting to land on my daughter’s head! It honestly came out of nowhere. We were seated by ourselves on the tree lined side of the field. I was able to calm my daughter’s shock and fear once I showed her that the bird was not some wild animal, it was in fact, somebody’s pet!
Now, we’re sitting at the outdoor fields of the Pontiac Silverdome, far from any populated area, wondering where this very social cockatiel, an Australian parrot (澳洲鹦鹉) could have come from. I walked up to the bird and put out my hand. Immediately, it hopped on and chirped in a friendly way. We looked around us and knew that we could not just leave and suppose that the bird would return to where it came from. This was a very domesticated bird that needed help or it would not survive.
The flag football game had ended so we walked the bird over to other groups of adults and asked if they knew of anyone who had lost a bird. All the kids were excited about the bird and fed it with some post game snacks. The bird’s nails were getting long and he was looking pretty dirty, so we knew it had been out here for a long time and was hungry. Since its wings were clipped, it could fly a little but probably not more than 100 yards or so at a try. We all just scratched our heads as a group wondering what to do with the lost bird.
We explained to the kids that this bird needed our help since it was someone’s pet and would not know how to get its own food, and it could not fly well since its wings were clipped. The kids understood, and all of them wanted to take the bird home! The parents however, knew this was not a good choice as one had a large dog, another two cats, etc. We explained to the kids that one of us could take the bird home for the night and then bring it to the Humane Society in the morning in hopes to connect it to its owners. We couldn’t keep the bird. It wasn’t ours. This was tough for the kids to understand at first. We couldn’t just leave the bird either. There was no way it could attend itself. The group of us sat around the Silverdome practice fields for quite a while trying to determine the best course of choice for the lost bird. It was getting dark out but no one was willing to leave that parking lot until we had a game plan for how to help the bird.
The owner of the football league, Chris Novak, offered to take the bird. It was extremely nice of him and he really stepped in to help while all the rest of us who had kids tugging on our shirts and begging to take it home. We took a box and put a bunch of holes in it and he brought it home for the night. Another mom went online and found a family that had lost a bird that looked just like the one we’d found. She emailed the info to Chris who got in touch with the family and the next day, reunited the bird with the family that lost it almost 3 weeks earlier! When Chris emailed us to let us know, we could not believe that this bird had traveled from The Rochester Tienken area all the way to the Silverdome!
We were so happy to be able to save this bird and get it back to its family. I showed my kids the email about how the other family got their pet back. The family has 3 kids who were so happy to see their bird. My kids realized what a nice ending this story had. Not only had we been able to save this bird’s life, but we were able to bring it back to the family that loves and misses him.
The life lesson in the missing bird story seemed to miss its mark with my kids at first. They were a little bummed out that they couldn’t keep the lost bird. I explained to them that when an animal or someone needs help, you just can’t turn a blind eye and hope everything works out OK. The “lost bird incident” was also a reminder to them that teamwork and the kindness of strangers can make a world of difference and that a group of well-meaning strangers can work together to help someone. It wasn’t a heroic act, but one that I knew had sunk in with my kids when they realized that trying to help was the best and only real course of action.
