【題目】The benefits of keeping a journal (日志)

If you want to grow, one important thing you should do is keeping a journal. It may seem simple, but it can make a big difference in your life. I have been keeping journals for years. Writing all the lessons I learn and all the ideas I get has become a habit for me. 【1】 Here are some benefits you will get by keeping a journal.

◆ It prevents you from losing an idea. Have you ever gotten an idea only to lose it later because you didn’t write it down? 【2】 But then I developed the habit of writing down every idea that came into my mind as soon as possible. If I’m away from my computer, I usually write it down on a piece of paper that I bring wherever I go. I will then transfer the idea to the journal in my computer.

◆ It helps you review all the lessons you’ve learned. By reviewing your journal, you can quickly see the lessons you’ve learned and the ideas you’ve gotten. 【3】 You can use the ideas to propel (鞭策) yourself forward.

◆ 【4】 After keeping a journal for years, you can look back at it and see how far you’ve gone. Things that were big problems in the past might seem small today. The raw ideas you had in the past might have been realized today.

◆ It helps you expand your ideas. When you try to come up with a sentence to express an idea, you are thinking actively about it.【5】 In the end, you will expand your ideas.

A. It trains you to express your thoughts.

B. It allows you to see your progress over time.

C. Just use whatever tool you feel comfortable with.

D. And to be honest, I can’t imagine what my life would be like without it.

E. Then you can do whatever necessary to avoid repeating the same mistakes.

F. I often experienced that myself.

G. Thinking actively helps you connect your idea to another idea.

【4】B

【5】G

【解析】本文講述的是寫(xiě)日記的重要作用，它可以幫助我們回顧過(guò)去，展望未來(lái)。幫助我們拓寬視野，從舊的思想拓展到新的思想。

【1】根據(jù)第一段“Writing all the lessons I learn and all the ideas I get has become a habit for me. ”可知，作者將日記看作是一種習(xí)慣，所以從D項(xiàng)中，可以得出，如果沒(méi)有了日記，作者無(wú)法想象他的生活。故選D。

【2】第二段，主要講述了電腦和日記的關(guān)系。根據(jù)前后句“But then I developed the habit of writing down every idea that came into my mind as soon as possible. ”可知，我曾經(jīng)有過(guò)這樣的經(jīng)歷，有了一個(gè)主意卻沒(méi)有寫(xiě)下來(lái)，后來(lái)忘記了。從此以后，我就養(yǎng)成了寫(xiě)日記的習(xí)慣。故選項(xiàng)F正確。

【3】根據(jù)第三段第一句“It helps you review all the lessons you’ve learned.”可知，寫(xiě)日記可以幫助我們克服自己以前曾經(jīng)遇到的錯(cuò)誤，不要再犯。選項(xiàng)E符合上下文的語(yǔ)義串聯(lián)。

【4】根據(jù)第四段“After keeping a journal for years, you can look back at it and see how far you’ve gone.”可知，寫(xiě)日記可以讓我們回顧過(guò)去，展望未來(lái)。故選項(xiàng)B正確。

【5】根據(jù)第五段第一句“It helps you expand your ideas. ”可知，寫(xiě)日記可以幫助我們拓寬視野，從舊的思想拓展到新的思想。故選項(xiàng)G正確。

【題目】People can be addicted to different things, e.g. alcohol, drugs, certain foods, or even television. People who have such an addiction are compulsive, i.e they have a very powerful psychological need that they feel they must satisfy. According to psychologists, many people are compulsive spenders; they feel that they must spend money. This compulsion, like most others, is irrational-impossible to explain reasonably. For compulsive spenders who buy on credit, charge accounts are even more exciting than money. In other words, compulsive spenders feel that with credit, they can do anything. Their pleasure in spending enormous amounts is actually greater than the pleasures that they get from the things they buy.

There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting. To save money, of course, most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts. Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they don’t need just because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping their budgets, but they are really playing an exciting game: when they can buy something for less than other people, they feel that they are winning. Most people, experts claim, have two reasons for their behavior: a good reason for the things that they do and the real reason.

It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also business people. Stores, companies and advertisers use psychology to increase business: they consider people’s need for love, power, or influence, their basic values, their beliefs and opinions, and so on in their advertising and sales methods.

Psychologists often use a method called “behavior therapy” to help individuals solve their personal problems. In the same was, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money.

【1】According to psychologists, a compulsive spender is one who spends large amounts of money ________.

A. and takes great pleasure from what he or she buys

B. in order to satisfy his or her basic needs in life

C. just to meet his or her strong psychological need

D. entirely with an irrational eagerness

【2】The passage is mainly concerned with ________.

A. the psychology of money - spending habits

B. the purchasing habits of compulsive spenders

C. a special psychology of bargain hunting

D. the use of the psychology of spending habits in business

【3】Which of the following statements is true?

A. All people spend money for exactly the same reason they need to buy things.

B. Business people and advertisers can use the psychology of money to increase sales.

C. Business people understand the psychology of compulsive buying better than scientists do.

D. Compulsive bargain hunters do not have problems with money.
