These two academics use an array of behavioral research to show that the most rewarding ways to spend money can be counterintuitive. Fantasies of great wealth often involve visions of fancy cars and extravagant homes. Yet satisfaction with these material purchases wears off fairly quickly what was once exciting and new becomes old-hat; regret creeps in. It is far better to spend money on experiences, say Ms Dumn and Mr Norton, like interesting trips, unique meals or even going to the cinema. These purchases often become more valuable with time-as stories or memories-particularly if they involve feeling more connected to others.
This slim volume is packed with tips to help wage slaves as well as lottery winners get the most "happiness bang for your buck." It seems most people would be better off if they could shorten their commutes to work, spend more time with friends and family and less of it watching television (something the average American spends a whopping two months a year doing, and is hardly jollier for it).Buying gifts or giving to charity is often more pleasurable than purchasing things for oneself, and luxuries are most enjoyable when they are consumed sparingly. This is apparently the reason MacDonald&39;s restricts the availability of its popular McRib - a marketing trick that has turned the pork sandwich into an object of obsession.
Readers of “Happy Money” are clearly a privileged lot, anxious about fulfillment, not hunger.Money may not quite buy happiness, but people in wealthier countries are generally happier than those in poor ones. Yet the link between feeling good and spending money on others can be seen among rich and poor people around the world, and scarcity enhances the pleasure of most things for most people. Not everyone will agree with the authors’ policy ideas, which range from mandating more holiday time to reducing tax incentives for American homebuyers. But most people will come away from this book believing it was money well spent.
According to Dumn and Norton,which of the following is the most rewarding purchase？
A.A big house
B.A special tour
C.A stylish car
D.A rich meal
Macrib is mentioned in paragraph 3 to show that______ .A.consumers are sometimes irrational
B.popularity usually comes after quality
C.marketing tricks are after effective
D.rarity generally increases pleasure
According to the last paragraph,Happy Money______ .A.has left much room for readers’criticism
B.may prove to be a worthwhile purchase
C.has predicted a wider income gap in the us
D.may give its readers a sense of achievement
This text mainly discusses how to______ .A.balance feeling good and spending money
B.spend large sums of money won in lotteries
C.obtain lasting satisfaction from money spent
D.become more reasonable in spending on luxuries
The author’s attitude toward Americans’ watching TV is______ .A.critical
B.supportive
C.sympathetic
D.ambiguous

Section B – TWO questions ONLY to be attempted
A local government housing department (LGHD) has funds which it is proposing to spend on the upgrading of air conditioning systems in its housing inventory.
It is intended that the upgrading should enhance the quality of living for the occupants of the houses.
Preferred contractors will be identifi ed to carry out the work involved in the upgrading of the air conditioning systems, with each contractor being responsible for upgrading of the systems in a proportion of the houses. Contractors will also be required to provide a maintenance and operational advice service during the fi rst two years of operation of the upgraded systems.
Prior to a decision to implement the proposal, LGHD has decided that it should carry out a value for money (VFM) audit.
You have been given the task of preparing a report for LGHD, to help ensure that it can make an informed decision concerning the proposal.
Required:
Prepare a detailed analysis which will form. the basis for the preparation of the fi nal report. The analysis should include a clear explanation of the meaning and relevance of each of (i) to (iii) below:
(i) Value for Money (VFM) audit (including references to the roles of principal and agent). (6 marks)
(ii) Economy, effi ciency and effectiveness as part of the VFM audit. (6 marks)
(iii) The extent (if any) to which each of intangibility, heterogeneity, simultaneity and perishability may be seen to relate to the decision concerning the proposal, and any problems that may occur. (8 marks)
Note: Your analysis should incorporate specifi c references to examples relating to the upgrading proposal.

W: No, I'm not sure I'm going to.
M: There's not much time left. The deadline's May 1. That is just two weeks from now. Are you short of cash.
W: No, I'm Okay.
M: You'd better hurry up if you want a dorm room next September. There aren't enough rooms for every one, and first-year students have priority.
W: Well, I've been thinking about living off campus.
M: Have you any idea how much that would cost？ There is the rent, utilities, and you'd probably need a car.
W: I know it would be more expensive. I think I can handle it though. The dorm is just so noisy that I can't get anything done. Maybe my grades would be better if I had some peace and quiet in a place of my own.
M: You should study in the library the way I do. Think of the money you'd save.
W: I've got to think it over some more. There's still two weeks left in April.

？？？？Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
Apopularly-held view has it that “opportunity to learn” is the key to educational success -i.e.the more time children spend on a subject, the better they do at it. According to the recent study there seems little correlation between time spent on a subject and performance of pupils in tests. Young Austrians spend exceptionally long hours on math and science lessons; for them it pays off in higher test scores. But so do New Zealand&39;s teenagers and they do not do any better than, say Norwegians, who spend an unusually short time on lessons in both subjects. Next and of particular interest to cash-strapped governments there appears to be little evidence to support the argument, often heard from teachers&39; unions, that the main cause of educational under achievement is under funding. Low-spending countries such as South Korea and the Czech Republic are at the top. High-spenders such as America and Denmark do much worse. Obviously there are dozens of reasons other than spending why one country does well, another badly, but the success of the low–spending Czechs and Koreans does show that spending more on schools is not aprerequisite（前提） for improving standards.
Another article of faith among the teaching profession that children are bound to do better in small classes is also being undermined by educational research. The study found that France, America and Britain, where children are usually taught in classes of twenty-odd, do significant1y worse than East Asian countries where almost twice as many pupils are crammed into each class. Again, there may be social reason why some countries can cope better with large classes than others. All the same, the comparis on refutes the argument that larger is necessarily worse, Further, the study even cast some doubt over the cultural explanation for the greater success o fEast Asia: that there is some hard-to-define Asian culture, connected with parental authority and a strong social value on education, which makes children more eager to learn and easier to teach. Those who make this argument say it would of course be impossible to replicate such oriental magic in the West.
Yet the results of the study suggest that this is, to put it mildly, exaggerated. If “culture” makes English children so poor at math, then why have they done so well at science (not far behind the Japanese and South Koreans)？Any why do English pupils do well at science and badly at math, while in France it is the other way around ？A less mystical, more mundane explanation suggests it self English school: teach science well and math badly; French schools teach math better than science; East Asia schools teach both subjects well.
The passage is mainly concerned with ___.？？
？？A.establishing a relationship between culture and education
B.exposing educational myths
C.introduction educational philosophies
D.comparing education philosophies
All of the following are common-held beliefs about education EXCEPT___.
A.time spent on a subject correlates with academic success
B.educational achievements correlate with the money spent

A.Austrian teenagers do better than New Zealands teenagers
B.Low-spending will lead to good school performance.
C.Students in large classes will do better than students in small class.
D.Asian culture makes students eager to learn and easy to teach.
The fact that English pupils do well at science and badly at math while in France it is the other way around is attributable to ___.A.cultural values
B.teaching methods
C.class size
D.money spent
Which of the following countries does worse in science？A.Japan.
