As you move around your home,take a good look at the things you have.It’s likely that your living room will have a television set and a video,and your kitchen will have a washing machine and a microwave oven.Your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need.You almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer,holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.
Now,perhaps,more than ever before,people are wondering what life is all about,and what it is for.Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world.They feel that the longhour work culture to make more money to buy more things is eating up their lives,leaving them very little time or energy for family or pastimes.Many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them.
Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year.One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz.They used to work in central London.He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank.They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs(郊区),leaving their two children with a nanny(保姆).Most evenings Daniel wouldn’t get home until eight or nine o’clock,and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for meetings.They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.
Nowadays,they run a farm in the mountains of Wales.“I always wanted to have a farm here,” says Daniel,“and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift.It’s taken time to get used to,but it’s been worth it.We have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays.However,I think it’s made us stronger as a family,and the children are a lot happier.”
Liz,however,is not quite sure.“I used to enjoy my job,even though it was hard work and long hours.I’m not really a country girl,but I suppose I’m gradually getting used to looking after the animals.One thing I do like,though,is being able to see more of my children.My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all.”
1.What do the first two paragraphs tell us?
A.People seldom work long hours to make money.
B.People hardly buy more things than necessary.
C.People are sure everything they own is in the right place.
D.People realize more is involved in life than just making money.
答案 D

2.Daniel agrees that the move to the farm ________.
A.was easy to organize
B.has improved family life
C.was extremely expensive
D.has been a total success
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据文章第四段最后一句话“However,I think it’s made us stronger as a family,and the children are a lot happier.”可知答案为B。
3.The underlined word “downshifting” in the second paragraph means “________”.
A.repairing your car by yourself
B.spending money carefully
C.moving out to the countryside to live a simpler and better life
D.living in a big house in the suburbs and dining out once a week
答案 C
解析 词义猜测题。根据第三段对Daniel和Liz的叙述,他们厌倦了住在市中心而搬到了郊区去住,由此可以看出,所谓的downshift是指从城市中心搬到乡下或郊区去住。

President Xi Jinping delivers a policy speech to Chinese and United States’ CEOs during a dinner reception in Seattle,Washington,September 22,2024.
Beijing and Washington must read each other’s strategic intentions correctly,and have “less estrangement (隔阂,疏远) and suspicion in order to forestall (预先阻止) misunderstanding and miscalculation,” said Chinese President Xi Jinping Tuesday night in his first major policy speech on ChinaUS ties since he arrived in the US early Tuesday.
Xi called for more understanding and trust between the US and China,prior to his formal talks with President Barack Obama at the White House on Friday.
“China is ready to set up a highlevel jointdialogue mechanism with the United States on fighting cybercrimes,” he said,adding that the Chinese government was a firm defender of cybersecurity while also being a victim of cybercrime.The world’s two largest economies “should strictly base our judgment on fact,for fear that we become victims to hearsay,paranoia,or selfimposed bias”.
Xi made his remarks in a 40minute speech,the only public speech during his US visit,at a dinner attended by more than 750 business leaders and other dignitaries (显要人物),including former secretary of State Henry Kissinger.It was sponsored by the National Committee on United StatesChina Relations and the USChina Business Council.
In addition to cybersecurity,Xi raised other issues of concern to some in the US audience,including China’s stock market and investment.
Xi said that the government had taken necessary steps to stabilize the stock market after recent turbulence (动荡) triggered wide concern.China’s central bank adjusted its currency exchange rate according to market supply and demand in August,which the president said has achieved “initial success” in correcting the currency rate deviation (货币汇率偏差).
Xi also reiterated (重申) China’s opposition to cyber theft,in spite of high tensions between the two countries because the US has blamed several cyber attacks on China recently.
“China is a strong defender of cybersecurity.It is also a victim of hacking,” Xi said.“The Chinese government will not,in whatever form,engage in commercial thefts or encourage or support such attempts by anyone.Both commercial cyber theft and hacking against government networks are crimes that must be punished in accordance with the law and relevant international treaties.”
Xi also shared the story of his hard and starving youth in a remote village to illustrate what a Chinese dream means for ordinary Chinese people.
Xi arrived at Seattle early Tuesday morning with his wife Peng Liyuan,and was warmly welcomed by Washington state business leaders and officials.
US Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker said that while this week many significant deals will be announced during Xi’s visit,it exemplifies (例证) US companies’ commitment to support China’s development both with capital and worldclass technology.
Kissinger,who played a major role with opening relations between China and the United States in the 1970’s,said Xi’s state visit is an important step in lifting the two countries’ relationship from the day to day solving of problems to the creating of a new world order.
Xi will take part in a roundtable discussion with Chinese and American executives,visit Boeing and Microsoft offices and a local high school before flying to Washington on Thursday morning.
