8、 of order. “Simon says jump; Simon says touch your toes”it was almost the same. Almost. When we grew up, my brother had chosen a separate life, leaving me alone. I missed him a lot. Today, though, we were together, standing in court, waiting for the sentence. The guilty verdict (判决)was read. I sat d
9、own, but my brother cried, “No! Im innocent.” And then he turned to me, yelling, “How can you do this to me, James! I finally can make a new life by myself.”“Stop this,” the judge yelled, “the juries have made the decision.”“But its not fair!” my brother replied, “I didnt kill anyone.”I wished I cou
10、ld explain, but I said nothing because this is the only way we can be together again. The judge pulled his glasses from his face. “By law.”“The law is unjust,” my brother said. The judge wiped his eyes, and, to my surprise, said calmly. “Yes,” he nodded his glasses aside. “I agree with you about tha
11、t. Law is meant to protect the innocent. And you certainly seem innocent. But how can I tell? You two are clones. Your faces, your fingerprints, even your DNA match exactly.

15、of the law. CWe regularly hear how important consumer spending is for the economy. The story goes like this: the more consumers spend，the more money circulates in the economy, which contributes to healthy job growth and profits. Keynes, a British economist went as far as to say that individuals savi
16、ng their money may actually be hurting the economy. Sounds troubling, doesnt it?Fear not. You arent actually hurting anyone else by saving money. Strong economic growth only comes from one place：savings. Not consumption. In fact, economic activity should not be mistaken for economic growth. For exam
17、ple, somebody takes their money, walks into a store, and purchases goods. The store increases its revenue.But what happens to all of those goods and services that people have chosen not to consume by saving their money? Simple: Other people are allowed to consume them. Think of it this way: When you
18、 lend out your savings, you are actually saying, “Here, I am not going to consume right now, so why dont you?” Banks simply play the middleman: they collect lots of peoples savings and then lend out lots of funds. It takes an unbelievable amount of goods and services to construct a building. It take
19、s food, shelter, and entertainment for all of the workers, as well. Without savings, it is quite impossible to finance such a construction. The coordination (协调) between savings and consumption is a necessary basis for sound economic growth. This coordination is also why consumer lending (say, to bo
20、rrow a big sum of money to buy a car) is not productive，in a strict sense. It doesnt increase the net (净的) amount of wealth of an economy. Those savings could have been used to construct, say, factory equipment. None of this means consumption and spending are “bad” things. They simply do not make us
21、 wealthier. After all, the final goal of production and savings is to consume. But to say that consumption is the engine of economic growth is to put the cart before the horse. Or, to rephrase: the consumption of wealth can never make you wealthier. Happier, perhaps. Wealthier, no. 8. What is the au
22、thors attitude towards Keynes theory? A. Approving. B. Reserved . C. Uncertain. D. Critical. 9. The underlined word “revenue” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_”.A. incomeB. reputation C. interestD. cost10. According to the author, which chart could show the effect of savings on economy?11.
23、What would be the best title for this passage? A. The Saving Behavior of the Economy B. Consumption: A Key Concept in Economy C. The Truth about Savings and Consumption D. Consumer Spending and Economic GrowthDDo you still remember the scene in the famous movie Titanic, directed by Cameron, where Ja
24、ck was frozen to death in the icy cold water so that Rose could survive on the floating door alone? It broke many peoples heart. Two decades later, people are still asking the question, “wasnt there enough room on the door for both of them?”Cameron once responded by saying it wasnt a question of roo
25、m, but buoyancy(浮力)if both of them had tried to stay on the raft, he argued, the whole thing would sink. But several guys from “Mythbusters”, an Australian-American science entertainment television program, decided to test the theory themselves. They discovered that if Rose had took off her life jac
26、ket to the bottom of the raft, there would have been enough buoyancy to keep both of them afloat. When they presented their findings to Cameron, the director insisted that Jack couldnt be saved. “The answer is very simple,” Cameron said. “Because it says on page 147 of the script that Jack dies. To
27、Cameron, it was an artistic choice to have the beloved character of millions, Jack, drown into the cold sea. Jack had to die because Cameron thought it would be best if we did. “It was an artistic choice, the thing was just big enough to hold her, and not big enough to hold him,” Cameron said. “I th
28、ink its all kind of silly, really, that were having this discussion 20 years later. But it does show that the film was effective in making Jack so endearing to the audience that it hurts them to see him die. The film is about death and separation; he had to die.”Since Jack was doomed to die, Cameron
29、 said, it could have happened in a variety of different ways. Its not about the door not being big enough: thats just a practical method for his death. “Whether it was that, or whether a chimney fell on him, he was going down,” Cameron said. “Its called art: things happen for artistic reasons, not f
30、or physics reasons.” 12. What do we know about the character Jack according to the text?A. He intended to kill himself. B. He sacrificed himself to save Rose. C. He didn t have money to buy ticket. D. He lacked basic knowledge of physics. 13. According to Cameron, why did the audience argue about Ja
