美国某网站的论坛就 “How Would You Spend 100,000 Dollars?” 为主题进行调查。下文是一些网友的回复，阅读下面的短文，以约30个词概括上述网友的观点。
If you got 100,000 dollars by chance，how would you spend it? Here are some answers of our readers：
Elizabeth Stahl：I would donate it to an arts program for young boys and girls．The decrease in the creative arts programs such as music，art and drama in the schools have left many young artists out in the cold i
n academics．Much like sports，art in any form can and does make a difference in
young people’s lives．
Marjorie C．：Although I agree with Elizabeth Stahl 100％，I’d give my money to each of my children to ensure the very best of education for my two granddaughters.
Clark：With one hundred thousand dollars…1 would distribute it among those whom I know that are in need and ask that they in turn then share half of what they’ve received with others that they personally know are in need．
Carol Wilson：First, I would take care of all my debts and gain good credit again，and then I would spend the rest on a new car．After all is said and done，take a nice long vacation．

第二节 读写任务 (共1小题,满分25分)
阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
The Power of Appreciation
Lilly was a French Canadian girl who grew up in the farming community. When she was 16, she had to drop school. With English as her second language and poor education, the future didn’t look bright for Lilly.
Lilly’s father told Lilly to find a job. One day, Lilly saw a sign at a big company. Cautiously, she knocked on her very first door. In her broken English, Lilly told the office manager she was interested in the secretarial position. The manage decided to give her a chance. He directed her to type a single letter, and then left. It was 11: 40 a. m. Lilly thought everyone would be leaving for lunch, when she could slip away in the crowd. But she knew she should attempt the letter.
On her first try, Lilly got through one line of five words and made four mistakes. On her second attempt, she completed a full paragraph, but still made many mistakes. She looked at the clock:11:55——five minutes to freedom. Just then, the manager walked in. He came directly over to Lilly, read the letter and said, “Lilly, you’re doing excellent work!”
With those simple words of encouragement, her desire to escape disappeared and her confidence began to grow. Lilly thought, “Well, if he think it’s good, then it must be good. I think I’ll stay!” Lilly did stay——all because someone had given a shy and uncertain girl the gift of self-confidence when she knocked on the door.
