The moment Dana stood up from her seat, the crowd at the airport rushed forward. The

passengers had been waiting for a couple of hours for an airline employee to open the door leading to the plane outside. And no one was in a good mood. While the crowd was moving, an old man got trapped in the middle of the rush. He fell down without being able to break his fall. His head hit the concrete floor. Blood flooded from his forehead. He appeared to be unconscious. Everyone rushed past him, except for Dana. She called for help.

A minute later, a young airline employee showed up. Hardly looking at the old man, she told Dana to get aboard her plane. She said the old man would be okay, and walked away.

Dana screamed for help. An airport supervisor (管理人员) appeared. He also told Dana to get on the plane. Dana said that she was not moving until an ambulance arrived. The supervisor said her plane would leave without her. Dana said that she didn’t care.

An ambulance and two nurses finally arrived. The nurses said that the man would be okay, but he would need some treatment. They put him into the ambulance and drove off.

On her way out to the plane, which was still refueling, Dana saw the employee who had firstly ignored the old man. The employee said, “You’re lucky the plane didn't leave without you.”

“The plane?” Dana asked. “Who cares about the plane? How could you be so cold? That was an old man; he could have been your grandfather! How would you like it if everyone just stepped over your grandfather and went on their way?” 1. Why did the crowd rush forward?

Are you good with money? I learned to be careful with it during my childhood. My father would give me some pocket money and tell me it should last for a whole week. So, I learned I had to save some if I didn’t want to run out of cash quickly. No surprise there: my dad was an accountant!

It’s never too early to become money savvy. That’s what British personal finances expert

Martin Lewis thinks. He is part of a successful campaign to include financial education on the school lessons in England. It will be planted in maths and citizenship education. This includes children from 5 to 16 years old. Lewis says: “We eagerly need to break the cycle of financial illiteracy(无知) in the UK” Lewis has made millions from his website which advises people to be saving and refuses any suggestion that he is tight. The expert says in an interview with the English newspaper the Daily Express: “the better you are with your cash, the better your life can be. People think I am telling them to stop spending money but I am simply telling them to spend it wisely.” The British say ‘take care of the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves’. It means you have to watch your daily expenses and not just the big purchases in your life such as houses.

Being careful with money pays off. Banks in Britain recently found themselves having to make up for a large number of people who were persuaded to part with their cash and buy

insurance policies (保单)they didn’t need. Many wasted their money on investments(投资) which were not for them. Few have the patience to read the small print.

What was the writer’s father?

A. A boss. B. A banker. C. An expert. D. An accountant.

7. The underlined words “money savvy” in Paragraph 2 refers to ________________. A. a person who is crazy about money B. a person who is good with money C. a person who is careless with money

D. a person who has nothing to do with money

8. What’s Martin Lewis’ attitude towards becoming money savvy? A. It’s no good. B. It is never too late. C. The earlier, the better. D. It’s not helpful.

9. What do we know about Martin Lewis from Paragraph 2?

A. Martin Lewis is a maths teacher good at financial education. B. Martin Lewis is a successful personal finances expert.

C. Martin Lewis is an expert making his fortune in interviews.
