Last year, I was speaking at a gathering of wealthy male investors. The organizers posted the 1 of a survey showing that only a small percentage of wealthy men believed their wives spent too much.
'What?' 2 one participant. 'Those guys have to be lying.'
There is no reliable 3 of who spends more among the rich: men or women. Both will say the other is the 4 spender.
A recent survey by Wilmington Trust, Campden Research and Relative Solutions proves the 5 . The companies polled 40 women (I know, that is more like a show of hands than 'survey'), each with a net worth of $25 million or more.
About half the respondents(受调查者) inherited(.继承) their 6 , a quarter 7 it from their husbands and the other quarter earned it 8 . That is roughly in line with other surveys of 9 women and the source of their money. One interesting note: among the self-made women, 90% got their money from owning a business, rather than 10 a salary.
As for 11 , almost all the women (90%) described their spending habits as 'below their means.' The report on the survey said that is 'possibly 12 they do not view their extreme wealth as defining their success.
'Women tend not to spend as much as 13 and splash(泼洒得使到处是) their names all over the place,' said one woman in the survey, describing her spending as conservative and he lifestyle as 'below the radar.'
Many women also worried about wealth having 14 effects on their children and didn't want to spend lavishly(挥霍) to 15 a bad example.
At the same time, 70% of the women said they 'buy nice things when 16 .' And 93.5% of the women said they were responsible for making 17 on major purchases, which 18 that they do a lot of the big spending.
Of course, for truly major purchases a house in Aspen, Colo., a Gulfstream, a Feadship the couple probably makes the decision 19 .
But what about other 20 ? Do you think men or women do most of the high-end spending?

最佳答案
(答案→)1-20 ACBBC BCDAB CDDCB ABCBA 解析:本文用调查的结果,说明只有很小一部分富翁认为自己的太太花钱太多。完成本题要结合现实生活中男女不同花钱习惯。1. A组织者公布了一项调查的结果(results),而不是原因(reasons),次数(times),方向(directions)。2. C有钱,但不显摆没人相信,故一位与会人士大叫道(shout):什么?那些家伙肯定在说谎。哭叫(cried),叹息(sighed),大笑(laughed),都不足以说明他的惊讶。3. B目前还没有可靠的方法(measure)来评断富人堆里谁花钱更多:是男性还是女性。数据(data),分离(division),新闻(news)就更不行了。4. B双方都会说对方是个较大的(bigger)花钱者。就两类人没法最大的(biggest),较少的(smaller)不符合常识,较坏的(worse)就更没道理了。5. C由Wilmington Trust、Campden Research和Relative Solution最近联手进行的一项调查证明了上述观点(point)。物质(matter),信息(message),(报道report)显得不伦不类。6. B约有一半的被调查者的财产(money)是继承而来,全文都说的是钱,而不是精神(spirit),习惯(habit),成本(cost)。7. C四分之一得(got)自丈夫,剩下的四分之一是自己赚的。根本不是买来的(bought),更不是抢来的(robbed),后面才说的是自己挣来的(earned)。8. D剩下的四分之一是自己(是多个受调查者当然用themselves)赚的,而不能用它自己(itself),她自己(herself),我们自己(themselves)。9. A这与我们对富有(wealthy)女性及其财富来源的调查基本相符。全是对有钱人的调查,而不是穷人(poor),普通人(ordinary),和诚实的人(honest)。10. B 90%是自己当老板开公司赚的,而不是靠挣(earning)工资得来的。不可能是开(making)工资,带走(taking)工资,花(spending)工资就更不对了。11. C至于支出(spending),几乎所有女性(90%)都说自己的支出习惯是量入为出。前文说的是挣钱,这儿是说花钱,而不是买(buying),浪费(wasting),节约(saving)。12. D调查报告中说,这可能是因为(because)她们并不认为自己的极大财富就是成功的全部意义所在。当……时候(when),如果(if),是否(whether),明显不适合这儿的语意。13. D女性往往没有男性(men)花钱多,也不会四处宣扬自己。全文都是那男女相比,并不是女的和女的(women),年轻人(youth),还有成年人(adults)比。14. C很多女性也担心财富会对孩子造成不良(bad)影响,而不是严肃的(serious),好的(good),各种各样的(various)影响。15. B所以不希望乱花钱,以免给孩子树立(set an example是固定短语)坏榜样。送(send),做(do),给(give)都不和an example搭配构成这个意思的短语。16. A与此同时,70%的女性说,她们会在必要的(necessary)时候买好东西,而不是比较不合理的可能的(possible)时候,高兴的(pleased)时候,焦急的(anxious)时候。17. B有93.5%的女性说,买大件的主意(即是决定decisions)都是由她们定,计划(plans),指定(appointments),建议(suggestions)都没用这个更合理,因为是花钱购置东西,是一个行动的结果。18. C这暗示(implies)她们经常花钱买大件。并没有直接这样说,故不是注意到(notices),强调说(stresses),打算(intends)之意。19. B当然,对于真正的大件──比如在科罗拉多州买座房子,一架湾流(Gulfstream)私人飞机,一艘Feadship游艇,夫妇两人可能会一起(together)作决定,根本不是远处(away),也一样(as well),出去(out)之意。20. A不过买其他东西(要买的东西就是purchases)的时候呢?你认为男性还是女性的高端花销更多?影响(effects),不同(differences),例子(examples)统统不符合逻辑。
