17、d a 30-year, fixed-rate home loan of $ 100,000 with an annual interest rate of 7.5 percent. Because the loan extends for such a lengthy period, the mortgage(抵押) company calculates a monthly payment that ensures it will get most of its interest back first. Thus in the beginning months, Waynes princip

18、al paymentthe amount he pays toward his actual loanincreases extremely slowly.Payment NumberTotal MonthlyPaymentPrincipal Portion ofPaymentInterest Portion ofPaymentCurrent Balance1$699.21$ 74.21$ 625.00$99,925.792$699.21 $74.68$624.54$99,854.11359$699.21$690.56$8.66$694.87360$699.21$694.87$4.34$0.0

19、0 Lets analyze Waynes early payments. Imagine that on December 15 the Mauritanian Mortgage Corporation gives Wayne $100,000, and on January 15 his initial payment is due. Throughout this first month, interest accumulates on the entire $ 100,000. On a yearly interest rate of 7.5%, Waynes monthly rate

20、 is 0.625% or 7.5%divided by 12. Multiplying $100,000 by 0.625% yields $625, the portion of Waynes first monthly payment that is interest. So Wayne now owes $ 99,925.79 ( $100,625$699.21). His February interest payment will be 0.625% of $ 99,925.79.By the time Wayne makes his last few payments, his

21、monthly interest payment has decreased considerably. His balance following his 359th payment is $ 694.87, and 0.625% of that is about $ 4.34, his final interest payment. What was the total amount of interest Wayne paid? Multiplying 360 months by $699.21 equals $ 251,715.60, and subtracting $100,000(

22、the loan amount) leaves $151,715.60over 1.5 times what he actually borrowed!36. This passage is mainly concerned with_. A. Derek Wayne B. the Mauritanian Mortgage Corporation C. how interest payments on a loan change D. calculating the number of payments Wayne made37. The monthly interest rate on Wa

23、ynes loan was_. A. 7.5% B. 6.5% C. 0.625% D. $62538. The table in the passage helps the readers see_. A. Waynes down payment before he took out the loan B. Waynes first and last payments C. how much his interest payments increased D. at what point the interest and principal payments were just about

24、equal.BSome people believe that international sport creates goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: that international contests encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatre

25、d. There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sport encourages international brotherhood. Not only was the Olympics the scene of a tragic incident involving the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by

26、lesser incidents caused principally by minor national contests. One country received its second-place medals with visible indignation after the hockey final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the losers objecting to the final decisions. They were convinced that one of their

27、 goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents victory was unfair. Their manager was in a rage when he said: “This wasnt hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished.” The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension

28、(禁賽) of the team for at least three years.The American basketball team announced that they would not yield first place to Russia, after a disputable end to their contest. The game had ended in disturbance. It was thought at first that the United States had won by a single point, but it was announced

29、 that there were three seconds still to play. A Russian player then threw the ball from one end of the court to the other, and another player popped it into the basket. It was the first time the U.S.A. had ever lost an Olympic basketball match. An appeal jury debated the matter for four and a half h

30、ours before announcing that the result would stand. The American players then voted not to receive the silver medals.Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game. The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or in n

31、on-national teams, might be too much to hope for. But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that encourages aggressive patriotism.39. According to the author, recent Olympic Games have _.A. created goodwill between the nationsB. bred only false national prideC. barely sho

32、wed any international friendshipD. led to more and more misunderstanding and hatred40. What did the manager mean by saying “Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished”? A. His team would no longer take part in international games. B. Hockey and the Federation are both ruined by the

33、unfair decisions. C. There should be no more hockey matches organized by the Federation. D. The International Hockey Federation should be ended.41. What conclusion can be drawn from the passage? A. The organization of the Olympic Games must be improved. B. Athletes should compete as individuals in t

34、he Olympic Games. C. Sport should be played competitively rather than for the love of the game. D. International contests can lead to misunderstanding between nations.CTui Na and Your Emotional HealthIn Traditional Chinese Medicine the body, mind and spirit cannot be divided and so the unique whole-

49、Christmas," said Clorinda, with the mournful sigh of seventeen years.Aunt Emmy smiled. Aunt Emmy was sixty, and spent the hours she didn't spend in a bed, on a sofa or in a wheel chair; but Aunt Emmy was never heard to sigh."The gifts which money can purchase are not the only

50、 ones we can give," said Aunt Emmy gently, "nor the best, either.""Oh, I know it's nicer to give something of your own work," agreed Clorinda, "but materials for fancy work cost too. That kind of gift is just as much out of the question for me as any other.&quo

51、t;"That was not what I meant," said Aunt Emmy."What did you mean, then?" asked Clorinda, looking puzzled.Aunt Emmy smiled."Suppose you think out my meaning for yourself," she said. "That would be better than if I explained it. Besides, I don'

52、;t think I could explain it. Take the beautiful line of a beautiful poem to help you in your thinking out: 'The gift without the giver is bare.'""I'd put it the other way and say, 'The giver without the gift is bare,'" said Clorinda, with a grimace.

53、"That is my predicament exactly. Well, I hope by next Christmas I'll not be quite bankrupt. I'm going into Mr. Callender's store down at Murraybridge in February. He has offered me the place, you know.""Won't your aunt miss you terribly?" said Aunt Emmy grave

54、ly.Clorinda flushed. There was a note in Aunt Emmy's voice that disturbed her."I think she would rather have your companionship than a part of your salary, Clorinda," said Aunt Emmy. "But of course you must decide for yourself, dear. " “"Well, I must say b

55、ye-bye and run home. " Clorinda lived just across the road from Aunt Emmy in a tiny white house behind some huge willows. But Aunt Mary lived there too-the only relative Clorinda had, for Aunt Emmy wasn't really her aunt at all. Clorinda had always lived with Aunt Mary ever since she c

56、ould remember.Clorinda puzzled over Aunt Emmy's meaning for four days and part of three nights. Then all at once it came to her. Or if it wasn't Aunt Emmy's meaning it was a very good meaning in itself, and it grew clearer and expanded in meaning during the days that followed, altho

57、ugh at first Clorinda shrank a little from some of the conclusions to which it led her."On Christmas Day, Clorinda went over to Aunt Emmy's. It was a faded brown Christmas after all, for the snow had not come. But Clorinda did not mind; there was such joy in her heart that she thought it the most delightful Christmas Day that ever dawned.She put the queer cornery arm
