题文
Eighth-grader Victoria Bills is talking about money with her classmates. She is worried that a company’s stock (股票) price could fall. It may be an unusual topic of conversation for a 13-year-old. But at Bills’ school in Chicago, US, you hear it all the time. The Chicago school’s 420 students learn about economic(经济学). They also get a chance to make money. Each 1st grade and 5th grade, students learn the basics of economics and investing(投资). Then in 6th grade, they put what they’ve learned to work. Students join a junior group that manages the $20,000. The group, made up of 12 to 14 students, decides which stocks to buy. After graduating, students pass on $20,000 to the next 1st grade class. They keep half of the rest of the money; the other half goes toward improving the school. They can choose to put their money in a college-savings program or take the cash. In 2007, Bills suggested that her class buy the stock of the Apple computer company. This was just before the iPhone came out. “We bought stock just at the right time,” she says. The kids bought Google stock as it reached $400 a share. It is now worth over $500. “It was a good buy,” says Myles Gate, 13. He hopes to be a banker one day.

试题分析:这篇短文给我们讲述的是芝加哥的一所学校里,学生们不仅可以学习经济学的基础知识,还能把自己所学的运用到实践中,去投资赚钱。学生们赚到的钱一部分自己保留,一部分用来建设学校。 小题1:推理判断题。根据短文中students learn the basics of economics and investing可知A和B是学生们可以做的事情;根据They also get a chance to make money可知C也是学生们可以做的事情;根据They keep half of the rest of the money; the other half goes toward improving the school.可知,对于学生们赚到的钱,他们只能保留一部分,即不能分享所有的钱。故应该选D。 小题2:细节理解题。根据短文第三段中Students join a junior group that manages the $20,000. The group, made up of 12 to 14 students可知,学生们参加一个由12到14个学生组成的小组,这个小组管理着这些钱。故选C。 小题3:细节理解题。根据短文第五段中The kids bought Google stock as it reached $400 a share. It is now worth over $500.可知,学生们买谷歌的股票时是400美元一股,但现在它已经涨到了超过500美元。故选A。 小题4:细节理解题。根据短文第五段中的内容可知,学生们在学校里学校如何投资,这一段中还给了我们两个例子,如学生们购买苹果电脑公司和谷歌公司的股票。故选C。 小题5:主旨大意题。这篇短文给我们讲述的是芝加哥的一所学校里,学生们可以学习经济学的基础知识,并把自己所学的运用到实践中,去投资赚钱。故应选B。 |
