参考答案21---23
CCA
B
A British shopper, Emma Mumford, who was
named “the Coupon(优惠券) Queen” has spent
just
?350 on a luxury(奢侈) Christmas for her and her
family—but got ?2,500 worth
of food, drink and
presents thanks to coupons and offers.
Ms
Mumford is a so-called “extreme couponer” and
spends hours
hunting out the best deals and
bargains. She has been preparing
for this
Christmas since the end of the last one. Ms
Mumford
made the huge savings by checking
price comparison websites
and as a result
collected more presents than she needed for
Christmas. After sorting out gifts for all of
her family, she has even been able to
- 2 -
donate ?1,000 worth of presents to her
local hospital.
“It has been so nice to have
Christmas sorted and not having to worry about
breaking
the bank. I wanted to get high
quality presents for my family and show that you
can
do it without spending a fortune. There is
a misconception that everyone who does
couponing only gets value products but through
my careful shopping I have managed
to purchase
designer perfumes(香水), a high-end coffee machine
.”she explained.
She said “What started as a
hobby to help me save money has turned into my
life and
I am able to run a business helping
people save money. I know what it feels like to
struggle as my ex-partner had a lot of debt
which I took on for him. We were in a
poor
situation where every penny counted. That’s what
really inspired me.”
She has now turned her
bargain-hunting addiction into a business where
she searches
for the best deals and offer tips
to the general public through video blogging and
her Facebook Page.
“I try and show people
that it is just a little bit of work in the
beginning but
it will eventually pay off. One
of the best things to do is just to be a bit
forward
thinking and save throughout the
year.”

A. She compared prices through websites.
B. She hunted out bargains in real shops.

needed.

the bank. D. Taking out money from the bank.

参考答案24---27 ABBD
【题文】C
B. Sensitive and determined.
D. Careful
and caring.
I love sleeping. It’s
something I’m good at. There’s nothing better than
nodding
off on the sofa in front of the TV and
when my head hits the pillow at night, I
have
no problem falling into a deep sleep within
minutes. There is one place where
I never nap
(打盹) and that’s at work—but new research suggests
I should!
The idea of you and your colleagues
heading off for a lie down in the afternoon
may seem strange, but some companies such as
Google and Facebook actually encourage
it.
Because it’s thought that a power-nap makes them
more refreshed and more
focused, and this in
turn makes them more productive.
An
Australian health writer called Victoria is a
founder of a campaign called Nap
Now which is
trying to make sleeping at work more acceptable.
She calls herself
a “naptivist”! She says: “I
think that our culture is a bit crazy not to
accept
it… It’s time to end the common work
principle which is all about working longer
and harder.”
So should we all be taking a
sleeping bag and pillow to work with us? A few
years
ago, research by the East of England
Development Agency found 30% of people have their
best ideas in bed compared to just 11% who
have them at their desk. That suggests
people
are more creative when they are relaxed—and the
agency has called for companies
to put beds in
the workplace.
A nap in the afternoon is
nothing new. In certain hot countries, such as
Spain, a
short rest or sleep in the
afternoon—called a siesta—is perfectly normal. So
maybe
we should break from the traditional
nine-to-five work culture and take up the
