参考答案
正确答案:C
Text2参考译文现在看来一美元已经不能等同于十年前的一美元了。我们不能再用它去买和以前一样多的东西。没人能够否认一美元还是相当于100美分。钱的面值没有变,而其价值已经经历了很大的变化。是我们的生活水平下降了吗?很多人对这个问题感到疑惑。所有的商品价格都受供求原理的制约。我们都知道人们比以前挣钱更多了,因此他们有更多的钱来买需要和喜欢的东西。巨大的需求造成了价格的土涨。同时,如果商品出现短缺,商品价格同样上涨。经济学家认为,钱的价值取决于生活成本开销。生活成本开销是我们用于生活必需品上的花费。因为食品、住房和医疗费用这些年增长很多,因此钱的价值降低了。对一些薪水没有涨太多的人来说,生活消费成了令人头疼的大问题。别为此担心。为了帮助你更好的理财保证生活质量,这里介绍几个省钱小窍门。首先,设定宏伟目标,鼓励自己存钱。比如,计划在一年之内买一套正装,五年内买辆车或者二十年内买套房子。其次,远离浪费。学习记日志,记录花费的金钱数目和用途。制定预算是非常重要的。预算能帮助你在生活成本开销增长的情况下明智地花钱。怎么做预算呢?有各种各样的图表、软件和其他东西供你购买以帮助你制定预算。这些都不错,然而你真正需要的是一个笔记本、一支笔和一个小计算器。坐下来,用这些工具写下你一个月的全部开销。全部!在购买那些昂贵的护肤品之前,要再三考虑。保养皮肤的最好方法是充足的睡眠。在你完全了解钱的流向后,才有可能改掉不良的消费习惯。按照以上的方法去做,你可以轻轻松松缩减日常花销,而且生活质量还不会受到影响。全真模拟试卷(2)参考答案及精析第11页(共18页)答案及精析46.C【命题目的】此题考查考生对文章细节的理解能力。【解题要点】根据第三段可知,一年之内买一套正装、两年内买辆车都是鼓励自己存钱的具体做法;根据第四段第一,二句可知,学习记日志,记录花费的金钱数目和用途是避免浪费金钱的措施之一,ABD都只谈了一个方面,只有C项最全面,故正确答案为C选项。
