三、 阅读理解

18. A full-time nanny is employed by the parents to provide high quality childcare for their

children and to undertake all tasks related to the providing of that care. Nannies provide

childcare in the family’s private home.

Full-time nannies with parents meet the physical, social, emotional and intellectual needs of

the children. They typically do the children’s laundry, keep the children’s areas neat and clean,

and prepare meals and snacks for the children. Depending on the age of the child and the

family’s needs, the nanny may be responsible for bathing the child, transporting the child to

activities and assisting the child with homework.

Since nannies work in the private home and serve as caretakers, and educators, nannies

must be trustworthy. Nannies are often hired so that parents can fulfill their personal and

professional tasks. For this reason, nannies must be dependable and reliable.

Full-time nannies work on average 40 to 60 hours per week and may live with the family as

live-in nannies. For parents who hire a live-in nanny, at minimum they should provide a separate

bedroom and bathroom and all meals and snacks. One of the benefits of nanny care is that the

parents set the nannies weekly schedule. Nannies are typically required to have some

scheduling flexibility.

Nanny employers must pay what is commonly referred to as the nanny tax, which includes

social security taxes and medicare taxes, total about 7. 65% of the nanny’s wages. The other

federal tax is referred to as FUTA. It is the Federal Unemployment Tax. State unemployment

taxes may also apply and vary from state to state.

In addition to nanny employer taxes the nanny is responsible for her share of the FICA taxes.

Nannies are responsible for paying their own income tax payments, however many employers

agree to manage the payments for them.

Typical nanny benefits include 2 weeks of paid vacation, paid sick days and paid personal

days and full contributions to health insurance. Nanny employers may also wish to contribute to

a retirement savings plan for their nanny.

A. She should do all the tasks connected with childcare.

should provide a separate bedroom and bathroom and all meals and snacks.”可知，全职保姆至少需要一个单独的卧室和浴室，还有所有的食物和点心，也就是说她们必须要有独立的私人空间，故B项正确。

19. The way in which people in Latin America spend their money changes from country to

country. It obviously depends on the economy (经济). It’s not sensible to compare economies

such as those of Argentina, Colombia or Mexico. As they are not the same, consumers spend

their money in different ways. There are many articles online about consumption habits in Latin

America that show statistics; however, many of them just refer to the crisis (危机) and how bad

the economy is.

In Argentina for example, due to the fact that there aren’t many ways to get a loan (贷款)

and because of their cost, Argentineans prefer to buy cars. They invest their money in electrical

appliances. They also spend a good part of their salaries on leisure: going out to dinner, to the

movies or to the theater.

In Colombia, “plata”, which is an informal word for money, is used to buy houses. It doesn’t

matter if you already have one, you can always buy a second one and rent it. Cars are also a very

attractive option to spend money on; however, the most important thing is a house. Some

people also spend their money on education: bachelor’s degrees, master’s programs, doctorates

and so on. Recently, some Colombian people have decided to spend their money on something

else: surgery (手术). The most common ones are to improve their nose, to lose some weight and

also to gain weight in specific areas.

Mexican people spend their money on houses and education as well, and some on cars

after that. Nonetheless, it’s also important to mention fun and going out for dinner. Some

people say that they spend lots of money in restaurants.

However, be aware that those are just some general consumption habits in Latin America;

it doesn’t mean that people there only spend their money on those things.

12. What is the purpose of the article?

A. To show how the economy influences consumption habits.

B. To explore consumption habits in Latin America.

C. To present the changes in people’s consumption habits.

D. To analyze why Latin American countries spend money in different ways.

13. Why do the Argentineans prefer to buy cars?

A. Because cars show their social status.

B. Because they are inexpensive.

C. Because houses are too expensive for them.

D. Because it is convenient to travel by car in Argentina.

14. What does the underlined phrase “doctorates” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. One of the highest degrees earned in a university.

B. The money you pay for being taught.

C. A teacher of the highest rank in a university department.

D. The main subject that a student studies at college or university.

15. What can be concluded from the article?

A. Colombia is the most educated country in Latin America.

B. Colombian people prefer to spend money on cars rather than on houses.

C. Mexican people spend more time eating out than they spend eating at home.

D. People in Mexico and Colombia attach a lot of importance to education.
