When I first received a copy, I thought it was a get-rich-quick type of publication. There is nothing wrong with that kind of book, but my mind just doesn’t chase after dreams of wealth. I figure that if God ever wants me to be rich, he knows where to find my purse.
When I began reading When Money Talks, Listen!, I was overjoyed to find that Rich Ezzo isn’t money hungry either. He, too, is hungry for things far more important than money.
I absolutely love this e-book. Why did I wait a week to write the review ? simple. I wanted to see if the impact it had on me could keep up. After reading the last word of the e-book, I totally agreed with the subtitle(副标题)which promised to forever change the way we thought about money. I had so many thoughts running around my mind that I had to install a stop light to stop some while others made their way into the picture. I had a mental traffic jam, which only goes to show how slow the traffic usually is.
It has been a week and the impact is the same. I guarantee this is an e-book you’ll want to read. I urge you to visit the author’s website, MysterMoney. Com, and to download the e-book. You won’t
regret it.
小题1:What’s the purpose of the passage?

Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round". She is always open to persuasion: indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro often retracing her steps, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a tiresome process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

| A．his money | B．his hobbies | C．his need | D．his friends |

| B．Because she doesn’t know how to buy a dress. |
| C．Because she doesn’t know whether to buy it or not. |

| A．Most men have patience with trying it on while buying a jacket. |

“Oh, did you think it was your shirt? ” A small giggle（咯咯笑）escaped her 40 ．“That’s silly．”
“No, I knew it was Mommy’s shirt．” he said．
A(n) 41 expression crossed my daughter’s face．“Then why are you doing that?”
“Because your Mommy is a special person, and I like to 42 her．” he answered．
“Oh,” she happily replied, and then skipped out of the room．“I’m going to help my brother．”

We all try to do nice things for our family．Think about the last time when you cooked a meal or folded laundry． 50 did you feel about 51 your family in this way? Were you glad to do it 52 did you feel resentful that you were stuck with this mundane (平凡的) chore? 53 , none of us has a cheerful servant’s heart every day． 54 if we want our children willingly to reach out to others and show kindness and compassion, it is essential that they see us doing the 55 ．

This study examined whether self-reported pain is indeed higher when the events producing the pain are understood as intentionally caused by another person．For the study, the researchers told 40 volunteers that they were going to do a series of tasks, including color matching, number counting and discomfort assessment．This last task involved their receiving a brief electric shock to the wrist．They were told that a partner, sitting in another room, would choose which task they would do, and a computer screen helped them to know their partner’s choice．
In some cases, the volunteers were told their partner had chosen the pain tolerance test．In others, they were told the computers would select the pain tolerance test regardless of their partner’s choice．When volunteers thought that their partners were making the shocks on them on purpose, the feeling made the pain worse．As a matter of fact, they were the same．
This study provides evidence that the experience of pain changes depending upon how they think when people have been harmed．Specifically, the meaning of a harm — whether it was intended — influences the amount of pain it causes．So, although a broken toe may hurt, an intentionally broken toe should hurt more．
小题1:It can be concluded from the text that _______．
A．the feeling of pain varies from one person to another  |
| B．long-lasting pain damages people’s health |
| C．pain is greater if harm seems to be intentionally done |
| D．people suffer more from accidental pain |
| A．People can reduce pain by relaxing． |
| B．Researchers study how pain is caused． |
| C．Everyone should know the effect of pain． |
| D．People should think more about pain． |
| A．Volunteers． | B．Computers． |
| C．Shocks． | D．Pains． |
| A．Indifferent． | B．Sceptical． |
| C．Disapproving． | D．Approving． |
