根据下列内容，回答211-215题。 A house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy．Very few people have enough money of their own to buy a house，so they have to borrow money from a bank．Borrowing moneyfrom a bank to buy a house is called“take a mortgage”．The bank usually lends money or gives a me．gage for twenty—five years．Houses are so expensive that many people nowadays have to borrow as much as$50，000．In other words，they will have a$50，000 mortgage． How can you get a mortgage? When you find a house you like．you go to a bank．The bank will research you financial history and decide if they think you are a good risk．They will want to know what kind of job you have，what kind of salary you make and how long you have had the job． They will a]so want to know how much money you have．In addition．the banks will require a down payment．Depending Oil which state you live in，the bank may require as much as 30%of the price of the house as a down payment．The bank will then lend you the rest of the money to buy the house.Many people are never able to buy a house because they can not save enough money for the down payment． What does a house mean in the United States．? __________A.It is a dream which many people can hardly realize B.It is so expensive that many people can not really buy them C.It is the most important property that many people try to buy D.It doesn’t belong to people if they can not borrow morley from the bank
Years ago,a cigarette commercial asked if you were smoking more,but enjoying it less．That describes the way many of us live today．We are doing more,but enjoying it less．And when that doesn't work,we get the problem．In our extremely hurried search for satisfaction,we try stuffing still more into our days,never realizing that we are taking the wrong approach. The truth is simple;so simple it is hard to believe．Satisfaction lies with less,not with more．Yet,we pursue the myth that this thing,or that activity,will somehow provide the satisfaction we so desperately seek. Arthur Lindman,in his very effective book,"The Harried Leisure Class,"described the uselessness of pursuing more．His research focused on what people did with their leisure time．He found that as income rose,people bought more things to occupy their leisure time．But,ironically,the more things they bought,the less they valued any one of them．Carried to an extreme,he predicted massive boredom in the midst of tremendous variety．That was more than twenty years ago,and his prediction seems more accurate every year. Lindman of course,is not the first to discover this．The writer of Ecclesiastes expressed the same thought thousands of years ago．It is better,he wrote,to have less,but enjoy it more. If you would like to enjoy life more,I challenge you to experiment with me．How could you simplify your life?What could you drop?What could you do without?What could you stop pursuing?What few things could you concentrate on? The more I learn,the more I realize that fullness of life does not depend on things．The more I give up,the more I seem to gain．But words will never convince you．You must try it for yourself．Lindman wrote his book__.A.ten years ago B.twenty years ago C.more than twenty years ago D.thousands of years ago
