To Curb Spending?
The monthly expenditures of college students have been on the rise in the past few years. Some argue that if the students earn the money themselves, how they spend it is none of other people’s business, and after all, the general living standard keeps rising. However, the fact is that most students live on the money their parents give them. The lure of a more comfortable and fashionable lifestyle-one with name brand clothing, mobile phones, MP3, and dining out or going to bars with a girlfriend-makes many to be frequent borrowers.
In my opinion, young students are sensitive to fashions and new trends, thus they easily found it impossible to make ends meet and run into debt. When a student’s spending steps beyond the boundaries of daily necessities, it becomes a kind of waste. Furthermore, widespread extravagant spending on the campus could have a bad influence on people’s values. But many students see it as a common practice and not a fault. Though everyone has the right to enjoy a comfortable life, campus is a place for study. So just think twice before you sign a bill.
Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)
1. Y 文章第二段指出“在人生的黄金时期有持续的空余时间事实上是一次独特的机会，可以让你专心从事志愿工作，或继续深造。”在后面的段落里作者分别举例说明失业可以给人带来其它方面的收获。因此可以得出结论，失业并不完全是件坏事。
2. N 标题Community Involvement第一段最后一句话中的obsess一词意思为“困扰”，可以看出Perez并不愿意从事家务劳动。另外根据该标题中第二段也可得出此结论。
3. N 根据文章标题Community Involvement中第三段的最后一句话“我决定不再自怨自艾，出去做些有意义的事情”，可以看出她也曾在失业期间十分失落。
4. NG 题目中指出Lisa Perez在得到新工作后后悔没有早点做义务工作，而这一点在文章中并没有提到。文章标题Community Involvemet的最后一段只提到Perez决定不管以后的工作多么繁忙，她也会抽出时间从事义务工作。
5. free 参见文章第一段第一、二句话。
6. powerful and well-connected 参见文章标题Community Involvement倒数第二段的第一句话。
