Financial Education-Awareness Dilemma

When it comes to financial education, the majority of today's youth will regard it as a necessity for certain specific people who want to make their career in the financial world. 1. Actually, elementary financial education is a must for all, as money transaction is an essential part of our day-to-day life.

Suppose you have $100 in a saving account that pays simple interest at the rate of 2%per year. lf you leave the money in the account, how much will you have accumulated after 5 years: more than $102, exactly $102, or less than $102? The test might look simple, but only half of the people surveyed gave the correct answer.

2.The explanation goes as follows: People with low levels of financial literacy suffer from that lack of knowledge at every stage of their lives. Researchers on this subject say people with a high degree of financial literacy are more likely to plan for their retirement. 3.

On the contrary, people who have a lower degree of financial literacy tend to borrow more, accumulate less wealth, and pay more in fees related financial products. They are less likely to invest, more likely to experience difficulty with debt, and less likely to know the terms of their mortgages and other loans. Thus, the cost of this financial ignorance is very high. 4.

What　 is the solution? 5. Like reading and math, financial education must become part of the core curriculum in our schools. Likewise, parents should engage in regular, constructive conversations about money matters. This will give their kids a solid foundation for financial well-being, which will keep on giving returns throughout the course of their lives.

A. Financial education must start early.

B. However, they miss an important point.

C. Why does each of us have to face a financial challenge?

D. Why does financial literacy matter so much in our society'?

E. Rich people are generally better educated on financial management.

F. Besides, these people have more than double the wealth of people who don’t.

G. For example, they frequently make late credit card payments, overspend their credit limit, etc.

Over the years, the term Wall Street has come to represent the world of high finance, but it’s also just a street! And before that, it was actually a wall--hence the name.

The wall used to protect New Yorkers from attacks by Native American Indians. But eventually, the English knocked the wall down. There are a number of important landmarks on Wall Street. Here are a few of them.

TRINITY CHURCH

Trinity Church is located at the intersection of Wall Street and Broadway. The original church was destroyed in the Great New York City fire of 1776. The current church was built in 1846. These days, Trinity Church has several choirs, and offers free classical and contemporary music concerts.

FEDERAL HALL NATIONAL MEMORIAL

Federal Hall was built in 1700 as New York’s City Hall. Later, it became the first capitol building of the United States of America. It was the place where George Washington was inaugurated as the first president of the United States in 1789, and it is also where the United States Bill of Rights was drafted. These days, the building is run by the National Park Service as a museum commemorating the historic events.

THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE

The New York Stock Exchange is a neo-classical building located at 11 Wall Street. It is the world’s largest stock exchange by market capitalization of its listed companies. You can visit the building and watch from the third floor as traders buy and sell shares from companies around the world.

BANKERS TRUST COMPANY BUILDING

At 14 Wall Street you can find the Bankers Trust Company Building. It’s a 227-metre skyscraper that occupies an entire block. The building was originally the headquarters of Bankers Trust. These days, it serves as the American headquarters of Deutsche Bank.

1.How did Wall Street acquire its name?

A.Local New Yorkers named it after a certain man.

B.Some Native American Indians gave it the name.

C.The street got its name due to the original architecture there.

D.The English adopted the name in memory of the original wall.

2.Among the important landmarks, which used to stage certain political events?

A.Trinity Church.

B.Federal Hall National Memorial.

C.The New York Stock Exchange.

D.Bankers Trust Company Building.

Greece’s finance minister says his country’s financial situation is “terribly urgent” and the crisis could come to a head in a couple of weeks. Yanis Varoufakis gave the warning after eurozone finance ministers met in Brussels to discuss the final €7.2bn tranche(援助资金) of Greece’s €240bn EU/IMF bailout(紧急援助).
Ministers said Greece had made “progress” but more work was needed.
The Greek government is struggling to meet its payment obligations（责任）.Earlier, Greece began the transfer of €750m (£544m, $834m) in debt interest to the International Monetary Fund - a day ahead of a payment deadline.
“The liquidity（资产流动性） issue is a terribly urgent issue. It’s common knowledge, let’s not beat around the bush,” Mr Varoufakis told reporters in Brussels. “From the perspective of timing, we are talking about the next couple of weeks.”
Greece has until the end of June to reach a reform deal with its international creditors. Its finances are running so low that it has had to ask public bodies for help. The crisis has raised the prospect that Greece might default（违约） on its debts and leave the euro.
In a statement, the eurozone finance ministers said they “welcomed the progress that has been achieved so far” in the negotiations,” but added: “We acknowledged that more time and effort are needed to bridge the gaps on the remaining open issues.” Eurogroup chairman Jeroen Dijsselbloem said there had to be a full deal on the bailout（紧急财务援助） before Greece received any further payments. “There are time constraints(限制；约束) and liquidity constraints and hopefully we will reach an agreement before time runs out and before money runs out.” he said.
There had been fears that Greece would default on its IMF debt repayment due on Tuesday. However, a Greek finance ministry official was quoted as saying that the order for repayment had been executed（实施） on Monday. Almost €1bn has been handed over to the IMF in interest payments since the start of May.
It is unclear how the government came up with the funds, but the mayor of Greece’s second city Thessaloniki revealed last week that he had handed over cash reserves in response to an appeal for money.
1.What is Yanis Varoufakis?
A. He is Greece’s finance minister.
B. He is an expert in the eurozone.
C. An official of the International Monetary Fund.
D. He is Eurogroup chairman.
2.Which of the following could be the worst result if Greece defaulted on its debts?
A. The International Monetary Fund would cancel the debt of Greece.
B. The EU would help Greece rebuild its financial system.
C. Greece might have to leave the eurozone.
D. The eurozone would accept Greece.
3.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?
A. The EU Get Challenged.
B. The International Monetary Fund Reform.
C. The EU Face Economic Crisis.
D. Greece Two Weeks from Cash Crisis
4.What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?
A. People fear that the International Monetary Fund can’t pay Greece for debt repayment.
B. Greece succeeded in paying interest payments to the IMF.
C. It is unclear how the government came up with the funds.
D. The mayor of Greece’s third city handed over cash reserves in response to an appeal for money.
