If yu ask 100 peple what subjects they wish they had been taught in schl, there is a chance that the vast majrity f them will cmplain abut the lack f persnal finance educatin. In my case, I did learn a bit abut financing while in schl — just nt in the classrm. One f my earliest lessns n the basics f budgeting came frm an unlikely surce: the cafeteria.
My lunch budget was a set amunt each week. Withut a plan, it wuld be all t easy t blw thrugh the budget lng befre meeting all expenses. Therefre, my very first budgeting lessn was t make a budget well. A bit f simple arithmetic (算术) helped me determine exactly hw much mney I culd spend each day if I wanted t actually have lunch all week.
Besides, my schl had relatively diverse lunch fferings. Yu culd nt nly get the cmmn ht schl lunch but als find many ther fds f varying attractins. As far as I was cncerned, what attracted me mst was the ice cream. Unfrtunately, I culdn’t blw my daily lunch budget n ice cream. And I’d already figured ut that splurging early in the week made fr a rugh time fr the rest f the week. Hence, I learned my secnd imprtant budgeting lessn: save fr a gal. Because f this lessn, when Friday rlled arund, I wuld have just enugh left ver fr a wnderful lunch and the highly desirable ice cream.
Nwadays, my budget is a bit mre cmplicated than the lunch budget in the past. Althugh I n lnger have t save my pennies fr a frzen treat, budgeting my mney tday uses the exact same skills I learned all thse years ag. Actually, whether yu’re budgeting fr schl lunches r credit card bills, the basics remain the same. And it’s never t early — r t late — t learn hw t make a prper budget.
24．What can we learn abut the authr while she was in schl?
A. She shwed n interest in financial affairs.
B. She ften cmplained abut her schl subjects.
C. She learned abut financing frm her wn experience.
D. She eagerly expected t get persnal finance educatin.
25．What did the authr prbably realize after eating at the cafeteria?
A. She shuld plan her lunch budget carefully.
B. Her health mattered mre than anything else.
C. Her budget fr lunch was far frm reasnable.
D. She shuld imprve her arithmetic as much as pssible.
26．What des the underlined wrd “splurging” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Trying t save mney.B. Making a plan fr mney.
C. Spending much mney freely.D. Being cncerned abut mney.
27．What is the authr’s purpse in writing the text?

A nvel cntract prpsed by a researcher at the University f Texas at Dallas and his clleagues culd help ease cnflict between fd-delivery platfrms and restaurants with which they partner.
Fd-delivery platfrms cllect custmer rders nline, send them t restaurants and deliver the rders t custmers. While this service helps restaurants expand their markets, it has disadvantages.
Mre business sunds gd, but it cmes at the cst f a cmmissin (佣金) charged by the delivery platfrm. Besides, a large number f delivery rders might place restaurants under pressure. Delivery rders frm the platfrms can ptentially harm the dine-in experience by slwing dwn the kitchen, and the expectatin f a lng-time waiting culd stp higher-prfit dine-in custmers frm purchasing.
This mtivated the researchers t identify an alternative cntract t change the situatin. They develped a mdel and fund that different pssible pairs f dine-in and delivery prices wuld prduce higher r lwer general incme with certain prices achieving the maximum pssible general incme. The ideal slutin trades ff the increased incme frm delivery rders against the negative impact that thse rders have n dine-in incme, finding the right balance between the tw.
“If the same cmpany were t cntrl bth the dine-in and delivery channels, then it wuld jintly determine the respective (各自的) prices t maximize the general incme,” said ne f the researchers. “But f curse, the prices are usually set by tw different cmpanies, and each seeks t maximize its wn incme. The key is t design an apprpriately structured cntract s that when each party maximizes its individual incme, the resulting prices als maximize the general incme.”
“Delivery platfrms are widely seen as a necessity fr many restaurants, despite the lw prfit n a delivery rder. A restaurant nt n a delivery platfrm risks lsing an rder t its cmpetitrs, and that lss culd be a repeat custmer,” said ne f the researchers. “Fd delivery is indeed expected t maintain a large market share. This makes it all the mre urgent t imprve the relatinships between restaurants and platfrms.”
28．What des the nvel cntract fcus n?
A. Shwing restaurants hw t prfit frm fd-delivery platfrms.
B. Demnstrating the develpment ptential f fd-delivery platfrms.
C. Analyzing the cnflict between fd-delivery platfrms and restaurants.
D. Imprving the relatinship between fd-delivery platfrms and restaurants.
29．Hw might the fd-delivery rders affect the restaurants they wrk with?
A. By intrducing their cmpetitrs.
B. By lengthening their service hurs.
C. By changing their perating mdels.
D. By driving up the price f their fd.
30．Which culd ease the cnflict between fd-delivery platfrms and restaurants?
A. Balanced dine-in and delivery services.
B. Reasnable dine-in and delivery prices.
C. Limiting the number f fd-delivery rders.
D. Reducing cmmissins f fd-delivery platfrms.
31．What can we learn frm the last paragraph abut fd-delivery platfrms?
A. They are highly prfitable.B. They need t be regulated.
C. They have strng cmpetitrs.D. They are significant fr restaurants.
Lithium (锂) is a key material t help pwer electric vehicles, making the metal vital t reducing carbn ftprints. But the cmbinatin f lithium mining and climate change seems t have negative cnsequences fr flamings (火烈鸟) in Suth America.
A team f researchers examined five lakes in Suth America’s “Lithium Triangle”, an area cvering parts f Chile, Argentina and Blivia, where mre than 75 percent f the wrld’s lithium is fund. This regin is als where three f the wrld’s six species f flamings live. Hwever, the researchers fund that a lake in Chile has already lst 10 percent f its James flamings and 12 percent f its Andean flamings in 11 years. Andean flamings are cnsidered “vulnerable”, while James’ flamings are “near-threatened”.
These results suggest that cntinued increases in lithium mining and declines in surface water culd sn have dramatic effects n flaming ppulatins. Lithium mining requires a high vlume f water abut 400, 000 gallns per tn f lithium. Excluding plar areas, the Atacama Desert in Chile is the driest area in the wrld, meaning that mining water has t cme frm the grund. As grundwater is used up, thse lakes where flamings live becme uninhabitable t the creatures that flamings feed n, causing the birds t leave r starve.
Flamings are key species in the lakes’ ecsystems. They’re als imprtant fr turism in the area. “When flamings are gne, the area will have fewer turists, and this culd impact livelihds in a deep way,” said Datu Buyung Agusdinata, a prfessr at the Arizna State University.
The birds can mve arund t different lakes t find better cnditins, which might nt be pssible as mining cntinues t expand. “Science-based cnservatin management guidelines might still allw future preservatin f sme key ecsystems in the regin,” said Mattia Sacc, an eclgist. Still, lithium mining is grwing rapidly. “It’s impssible t stp mining,” study c-authr and micrbilgist Cristina Dradr Ortiz said. “But we need t d it better.”
32．What is the prblem with lithium mining in the “Lithium Triangle”?
A. It has nt satisfied glbal demand.
B. It has pisned the fd fr animals.
C. It has plluted the five lakes seriusly.
D. It has reduced the number f flamings.
33．What is Datu Buyung Agusdinata’s cncern?
A. The lcal peple will face a severe water crisis.
B. The develpment f turism will be influenced.
C. The lakes’ ecsystems will never be recvered.
D. Flamings will be badly affected by turism.
34．What d researchers say abut lithium mining?
A. It shuld be frbidden in certain areas.
B. Its future is full f varius uncertainties.
C. It shuld adpt sme ec-friendly measures.
D. Its develping speed shuld be strictly limited.
35．What is the best title fr the text?
A. Mining Lithium May Threaten Flamings
B. Flamings Are Vital T Lcal Ecsystems
C. Lithium Mining Is Cntinuusly Expanded
D. Peple Make Effrts T Limit Lithium Mining

52．答案：dating ； t； nrmally ；resistance ；are claimed；a；and；which/that；have been；t supprt
解析：①考查非谓语动词。句意：银杏树被认为是现存最古老的树木之一，可以追溯到2.9亿多年前。分析句子结构，本句的谓语是is thught，所以空处应用非谓语动词。逻辑主语The ginkg tree和date之间是主谓关系，所以应用现在分词，作状语。故填dating。
②考查介词。句意：它原产于中国、日本和韩国，但现在也生长在欧洲和美国。be native t意为“原产于……”，为固定搭配。故填t。
③考查副词。句意：银杏是一种大树，通常高达20—30米，在中国有些甚至超过50米。空处应用副词，修饰动词reaching。nrmally意为“通常”。故填nrmally。
④考查名词。句意：由于具有对疾病和昆虫的抵抗力，一些树木据称已有2500多年的树龄。根据空前的介词f可知，空处应用名词，再结合空后的“t diseases and insects”可知，这里表示抵抗力，resistance意为“抵抗力”，为不可数名词。故填resistance。
⑤考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。句意参考上题。claim sb./sth. t be...意为“声称某人/某物是……”。结合上下文时态并根据句意，这里陈述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时。sme f the trees和claim之间是动宾关系，这里应用被动语态。主语表示复数，所以谓语应用复数形式。故填are claimed。
⑥考查冠词。句意：但在秋天，它们会变成亮黄色，然后落下，这构成了一幅美丽的风色。scene意为“场景，景色”，为可数名词。这里表示泛指，且空后的beautiful的发音以辅音音素开头，所以应用不定冠词a。故填a。
⑦考查连词。句意：银杏树有两种性别，有些树是雌性的，有些是雄性的。根据空前的“sme trees being female”和空后的“thers male”可知，为了避免重复，空后省略了being，补充完整后为thers being male，空处前后之间是并列关系，应用and连接。故填and。
⑧考查定语从句。句意：果实有柔软、肉质、黄棕色的外层，外观诱人。分析句子结构，空处引导一个定语从句，指代先行词uter layer，指物，且在从句中作主语，所以应用which或that引导。故填which或that。
⑨考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：由于银杏树已经存在了很长时间，人们将其用于多种用途。根据句中的时间状语“fr s lng”可知，这里应用现在完成时，表示动作从过去一直持续到现在，而且还有可能继续下去。主语ginkges表示复数，谓语应用复数形式。故填have been。
⑩考查非谓语动词。句意：它通常用于记忆和思维问题、视力问题和许多其他疾病，但没有很好的科学证据支持这些用途中的大多数。此处应用不定式作后置定语修饰名词evidence，表示目的。故填t supprt。
