简答题________

What should one make of the corporate world’S new found interest in promoting mental health?For sure，depression and anxiety can take a serious toll on productivity，and companies bear their share of the blame for promoting stress in the first place．
【词汇理解】第一句的what should one make of．．．这个句型中make of的意思并不是“制造”或“组成”，而是指“看待(某个问题)”。corporate world指的就是“公司，商业界”。New found interest字面意思是“新近发现的乐趣”，结合上下文可翻译为“最新流行的趋势”。第二句话中take a．．．toll on sth．是一个固定搭配，意思是“造成损失，毁坏”。take a serious toll on productivity意为“对生产力造成严重影响”。bear one’S share of blame意为“应承担部分责任”。promoting stress in the first place意思是“将压力摆在首要位置”。
【译文】对于这种公司热衷于提高员工心理健康的趋势，人们该如何看待呢?毫无疑问，精神萎靡和焦虑会严重影响生产力，而一向将压力放在首要位置的公司难辞其咎。

3根据下列材料，请回答题
You are going to read a list of headings and a text about how to select a fund．Choose the most suitable heading from the list A—G for each numbered paragraph(41-45)．The first paragraph of the text is not numbered．There is one extra heading which you do not need to use．Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET．(10 points)
A．Share the Responsibility
B．Keep Your Receipts
C．Cut Bad Habits
D．Balance Your Checkbook
E．Remain Flexible
F．Pay Down Debt
G．Focus on Savings
　　You have a big expense coming up．You need a better car，or a bigger home，or you want to go back to college．What do you do?Borrow，borrow，borrow--right?Well，maybe not．If you’ve created a budget，you know exactly how much money you have coming in，and how much is going out．You can make some plans concerning that big expense．But if you don’t have a budget plan，you probably don’t have a very good picture of your finances，and you may be tempted to borrow more money rather than squeezing all you can from your income． It’s definitely better in the long run——for you and for your money—to have a budget．

　　By now，you’ve set up your budget．You know how much money you have．But you could still use some help staying on budget．Here are some tips that can help you stick to your budget and get ahead on that major purchase：Determine the amount of your budget that you can afford to save each month．Have it direct—deposited to your savings account，or to your mutual fund．Wherever you decide to keep your savings，make sure you put money into it every month．That savings will make a big difference for you later．

　　Whether it’S alcohol or tobacc0，if you use much of either，you know how expensive bad habits can be．Stop smoking and drinking，and put the beer／cigarette money toward your other expenses．You’ll see your bills come down--and feel your health improve--in no time．You’ll also save on health care expenses down the road，and you may become eligible for lower insurance premiums．

　　Make sure you’re not the only member of your household concerned about your budget．If you’re working hard to save money，but your spouse is out spending you into debt，you’re fighting a losing battle．Sit down together and make a plan to determine how much spending money you should each have．Then，check in every week to see how well you’re doing．If the entire family shares the responsibility for the budget，everyone can cut back just a little and make a big difference．One person shouldn’t have to shoulder the entire burden alone．

　　If you have credit card debt，you may feel like it’s going to take forever to pay it off．But you can get ahead by choosing one card--ideally，the one with the highest interest rate—and paying as much as you can on it every month．If you have other cards，pay the minimum balance on those until you’ve paid off the first card．Then，choose the next card and pay extra on it while you pay minimums on the others．If you Pay only the minimums on all your cards，yon’ll be paying a lot more in interest than you may realize．

　　You probably monitored your expenses for several weeks to make a budget.Once the budget is made，though，it can be tempting to stop keeping up with every little expense．But keeping track really can help you stick to your budget．Save your receipts，and write down the places you spend money．You’ll be less likely to overspend if you realize how much money has actually gone through your hands．
