Unit 10 Money（A）(35分钟).阅读理解A(2017安徽合肥三模)Many years ago,when we were a young couple with two small children,aged 2 and 4,we were practically impecunious.My in-laws lived from hand to mouth,so we didnt expect any help from them.My parents lived a great distance away,and I was too ashamed to let them know about our situation.My husband was trying to earn a living with an old pick-up truck,carrying groceries for local shopkeepers,but it was constantly breaking down.It took almost all the money we had to have it fixed.The truck was also the only means of transportation for us.We lived in the countryside,and we always used the back door because the driveway led to it.One winter evening,I stepped outside to take a bag of trash to the barrel and almost tripped over something.It was nearly dark,and I had to bend down to see what it was.I could hardly believe my eyes.There sat a large basket loaded with food.It was heavy,so I called to my husband to carry into the house.Once inside,we discovered two loaves of bread,some butter,several cans of vegetables,a can of orange sauce,and a large turkey.There was so much that I cant remember it all,but it was everything we needed to fix a wonderful dinnereverything except potatoes.A little while later I remembered that I hadnt taken the trash to the barrel.By now it was dark,so I had to turn on the yard lightand thats when I spotted a small bag of potatoes sitting on the porch.That dinner was the best I can remember.We werent able to thank our donators,though,because we never found out who had been so generous in helping a struggling young family.Whoever it was,we are forever grateful.1.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “impecunious” in Paragraph

suddenly thought we didnt need any of the junk,and we abandoned all of those,saving $300.That got me thinking about all our pointless expenses in life.With a promise that wed stop if it was killing us,I convinced the family to take the leap into frugality(节俭).The rules were that we would buy nothing for 30 days except absolutely essentials.Our adventure began with a great start.By 9 a.m.,my wife,Ruth,had already made cakes from old strawberries and picked flowers I didnt even know we had in the garden.I cleared the car by hand for the first time for years.I read and returned the neighbors newspaper before he woke up.Total spending on the first day:$0.As days turned into weeks,we became so proficient(熟练的)at living frugally.We started riding our bikes to save gas.My childs finger painting was recycled as gift wrap for the homemade presents.We started to use an Internet application like Skype for free phone calls and ask neighbors with gardens for extra vegetables and herbs.In the end,we saved more than $2000 by not spending for a month.When we began,I imagined we would rush out the moment we were done and buy a lot of things in the supermarket,then maybe hit the

to.Your plan is a map that will guide you on this journey of change.1 When making your plan,be specific.Want to exercise more?Detail the time of day when you can take walks and how long youll

one behavior at a time.Replacing unhealthy behaviors with healthy ones requires time.3 To improve your success,focus on one goal or change at a time.As new healthy behaviors become a habit,try to add another goal that works toward time overall change.4 Accepting help and support from those who care about you and will listen to you strengthens your commitment.If you feel unable to meet your goals on your own,consider seeking help from a psychologist.Psychologists are uniquely trained to understand the connection between the mind and body,as well as the factors that promote behavior
