1、#*2017 北京中考北京中考 C Buying Is Doing? How important is shopping to you? How much time do you spend buying things? And how much time do you spend organizing these things in your home? In the future, how much time will you spend in movie theaters, at amusement parks, at shopping malls, or at convenience
2、stores? When you add it all up, you will probably see you spend a lot of your life consuming(消费)things. Consuming products is not necessarily bad. However, if we spend too much time doing it, we should look at it carefully. Imagine that you have a week off from school. You dont have to go to class.
3、However, in this week, you cannot spend any money - no shopping, no movies, no eating out. How would you spend your time? What things would bring you happiness? Perhaps you would take a walk with your best friend. Perhaps you would help a child read. Or you might spend time with your family. When we
4、 look back, it is likely that non-consuming experiences like these will be our most important memories. Why? Non-consuming activities are active, not passive. They dont come in a package. You make the experience yourself. For example, each person who reads to a child will have a different experience
5、. The experience changes with the reader, the child, and the book. Similarly, when you have a conversation with a friend, you are actively creating an experience. The conversation that you have with your friend cannot be experienced or recreated by anyone else. However, if you watch a movie with a f
6、riend, you will each have a package experience. It requires no action and little interaction between the two of you. The environment we live in encourages us to have packaged experiences. We feel that we must consume because we believe that buying is doing. However, we can start a personal revolutio
7、n ( 变革) against consumerism. How? By consuming less. We can ask ourselves what experiences bring us the greatest satisfaction. Then we can organize our lives so that we have more of those kinds of experiences. 49. If consuming products takes too much time, we should _.A. spend less money B. think ab

9、periences will be our most important memories 51. What is the writers main purpose in writing this passage?A. To introduce some ways of enjoying our spare time.B. To encourage people to have more active experiences.C. To explain reasons behind peoples shopping behavior.D. To share his personal exper
10、ience in consuming products.#*D篇篇 Say youre sitting around with some friends playing video games and someone mentions a game that happens to be one of your favorites. “Oh, that games easy.

11、 wanting to argue with them, you go along with the crowd. You have just experienced what is commonly referred to as peer pressure(同伴压力), also called peer influence. You will adopt a certain type of behavior, dress, or attitude in order to be accepted as part of a group of your “peers”. As a teen, yo
12、u are likely to have experienced the effect of peer pressure in a number of different areas. We are all influenced by our peers at any age. For teens, as school and other activities take you away from home, you may spend more time with your friends than with your family. As you become more independe
13、nt, your peers naturally play a greater role in your life. According to Dr. Casey from Cornell University, teens are very quick and accurate in making decisions on their own and in situations where they have time to think. However, when they make decisions in the heat of the moment or in social situ
14、ations, their decisions are often influenced by factors like peers. In a recent study, teen volunteers played a video driving game, either alone or with friends watching. The researchers discovered that the number of risks teens took more than doubled when their friends were watching, compared with
15、when they played alone. This shows that teens may find it more difficult to control risky behavior when their friends are around, or in situations where they are extremely angry. Just as people can influence us to make unwise choices, they can also influence us to make good ones. A teen might join i
16、n a volunteer project because his or her friends are doing it, or get good grades because his or her friends think getting good grades is important. In fact, friends often encourage each other to study, or try out for sports. While we are always influenced by those around us, the decision to act or
17、not is up to us. So when it comes to decision making, the choice is up to you. 52.
