From Ponzi to Madoff
The year was 1920.The country was the United States of America. The man's name was Charles Ponzi.
Ponzi told people to stop depositing money in a savings account.Instead,they should give it to him to save
for them.Ponzi promised to pay them more than the bank.For example,a savings account might pay you$5
a year for every $100 you deposit.Ponzi,however,would pay you $40 a year for every $ 100 you gave
him to hold.Many people thought this was a good plan.They began to give their money to Ponzi.
How could Ponzi make so much money for people?This is what he did with the money people gave him:
He used some of that money to pay other people who gave him money.However,he also kept a lot of the
money for himself. Soon he had $ 250 million.This was a kind of theft,and it was against the law. The
people who gave him their money didn't think anything was wrong. Ponzi paid them every month,just like a
bank.Ponzi continued this way of working for two years.Then one day,he didn'thave enough money to pay
all the people.They discovered his crime,and he went to prison for fraud.
Ninety years later,people began to hear about a businessman in New York named Bernard Madoff.
People said he gave good advice about money.They said when they gave him their money,he paid them a lot
more than the bank.Madoff helped hospitals,schools,and individuals earn money.Over a period of 40
years,people gave him$170 billion.However,no one investigated what he did with the money.The people
who gave Madoff their money also didn't think anything was wrong because he paid them every month.
One day,Madoff didn't have enough money to pay all the people he needed to pay. That's when people
discovered how Madoff worked:He was taking money from some people to pay other people,just the way
Charles Fonzi did.However,this time,instead of losing millions of dollars,people lost billions.
Madoff was accused of fraud,and the United States government officials arrested him.He didn't have to
go on trial because he said he was guilty.In 2009,a judge sentenced him to 150 years in prison.Bernard
Madoff's crime was even bigger than Ponzi'5.It was the biggest fraud in history.The lesson of this story is
clear:When something seems too good to be true,it probably is!Why didn't Madoff have to go on trial?
A:The officials couldn'tfind any evidence against him.
B:He had friends in the government who helped him.
C:He admitted he was guilty.
D:He returned all the illegal money.答案：C解析：从文章第一段倒数第三句话“Ponzi, however, would pay you $40 a year for every$100 you gave him to hold.”可知答案为C。
从文章第二段第二句话“He used some of that money to pay other people”可知答案为B。
从文章第二段第三句话“he also kept a lot of the money for himself”和第五句话“This was a kind of theft, and it was against the law.”可知答案为C。
从文章第三段第五句话“Over a period of 40 years”可知答案为A。
从文章第五段第二句话“He didn' t have to go on trial because he said he was guilty.”可 知答案为C。 -

Passage Four
Equal pay for equal work is a phrase used by the American women who feel that they are looked down upon by the society. They say it is not right for women to be paid less than men for the same work.
People who hold the opposite opinion(mainly men)have an answer to this. They say that men have more responsibility than women; a married man is expected to earn money to support his family and to make important decisions, and therefore it is right for men to be paid more. There are some people who hold even stronger opinion than this and are against married women working at all. When wives go out to work, they say, the home and children are given no attention to. If women are encouraged by equal pay to take full-time job, they will be unable to do the things they are supposed to. Women are best at making a comfortable home and bringing up children. They will have to give up their present position in society.
"This is exactly what they want to give up, "the women who disagree say. "They want to escape from the limited place which society expects them to fill, and to have freedom to choose between a job and home life, or a mixture of the two. Women have the right of equal pay and equal opportunities."
These women have expressed their opinions forcefully by using the famous saying, "All men are created equal." They point out that the meaning of this sentence is "all human beings are created equal."
48. The women use the phrase "equal pay for equal work" to demand that______.
A. women's work shouldn't be harder than men's
B. men should be paid less than women
C. people doing harder work should earn more
D. men and women should be paid the same amount of money for the same work
