2、ng Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes) Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions attached to the passage.

One was highly educated and intelligent; he had a Ph.D. and completed four years of undergraduate
4、 work in less than two years. He then went on to Stanford University, the University of Chicago, and Northwestern University to do his advanced studies, all on full financial scholarships. The other father never finished the eighth grade. Both men were successful in their careers, working hard all t
5、heir lives. Both earned substantial incomes. Yet one struggled financially all his life. The other would become one of the richest men in Hawaii. One died leaving tens of millions of dollars to his family, charities and his church. The other left bills to be paid. They had very different points of v
6、iew about the subject of money. For example, one dad would say, “The love of money is the root of all evil.“ The other, “The lack of money is the root of all evil.“ The contrast in their points of view, particularly where money was concerned, was so extreme that I grew curious and intrigued. I began
7、 to start thinking for long periods of time about what each was saying. One of the reasons the rich get richer, the poor get poorer, and the middle class struggles in debt is because the subject of money is taught at home, not in school. Most of us learn about money from our parents. So what can poo
8、r parents tell their child about money? They simply say “Stay in school and study hard.“ The child may graduate with excellent grades but with a poor persons financial programming and mind-set. It was learned while the child was young. Money is not taught in schools. Schools focus on scholastic and
9、professional skills, but not on financial skills. This explains how smart bankers, doctors and accountants who earned excellent grades in school may still struggle financially all of their lives. Although both dads worked hard, I noticed that one dad had a habit of putting his brain to sleep when it
10、 came to money matters, and the other had a habit of exercising his brain. The long-term result was that one dad grew stronger financially and the other grew weaker. It is not much different from a person who goes to the gym to exercise on a regular basis versus someone who sits on the couch watchin
11、g television. Proper physical exercise increases your chances for health, and proper mental exercise increases your chances for wealth. Laziness decreases both health and wealth. My two dads had opposing attitudes in thought. One dad thought that the rich should pay more in taxes to take care of tho
12、se less fortunate. The other said, “Taxes punish those who produce and reward those who dont produce.“ One dad recommended, “Study hard so you can find a good company to work for.“ The other recommended, “Study hard so you can find a good company to buy.“ One dad said, “The reason Im not rich is bec
13、ause I have you kids.“ The other said, “The reason I must be rich is because I have you kids.“ One encouraged talking about money and business at the dinner table. The other forbade the subject of money to be discussed over a meal. One said, “When it comes to money, play it safe, dont take risks.“ T
14、he other said, “Learn to manage risk.“ One believed, “Our home is our largest investment and our greatest asset.“ The other believed, “My house is a liability, and if your house is your largest investment, youre in trouble.“ Both dads paid their bills on time, yet one paid his bills first while the
15、other paid his bills last. One dad believed in a company or the government taking care of you and your needs. He was always concerned about pay raises, retirement plans, medical benefits, sick leave, vacation days and other perks. The idea of job protection for life and job benefits seemed more impo
16、rtant, at times, than the job. He would often say, “Ive worked hard for the government, and Im entitled to these benefits.“ The other believed in total financial self-reliance. He spoke out against the “entitlement“ mentality and how it was creating weak and financially needy people. He was emphatic
17、 about being financially competent. One dad straggled to save a few dollars. The other simply created investments. One dad taught me how to write an impressive resume so I could find a good job. The other taught me how to write strong business and financial plans so I could create jobs. Being a prod
18、uct of two strong dads allowed me the luxury of observing the effects different thoughts have on ones life. I noticed that people really do shape their life through their thoughts. For example, my poor dad always said, “Ill never be rich.“ And that prophesy became reality. My rich dad, on the other
19、hand, always referred to himself as rich. He would say things like, “Im a rich man, and rich people dont do this.“ Even when he was flat broke after a major financial setback, he continued to refer to himself as a rich man. He would cover himself by saying, “There is a difference between being poor
20、and being broke. Broke is temporary, and poor is eternal.“ My poor dad would also say, Tm not interested in money,“ or “Money doesnt matter.“ My rich dad always said, “Money is power.“ The power of our thoughts may never be measured or appreciated, but it became obvious to me as a young boy to be aw
21、are of my thoughts and how I expressed myself. I noticed that my poor dad was poor not because of the amount of money he earned, which was significant, but because of his thoughts and actions. As a young boy, having two fathers, I became acutely aware of being careful which thoughts I chose to adopt
22、 as my own. Whom should I listen tomy rich dad or my poor dad? Although both men had tremendous respect for education and learning, they disagreed in what they thought was important to learn. One wanted me to study hard, earn a degree and get a good job to work for money. He wanted me to study to be
23、come a professional, an attorney or an accountant or to go to business school for my MBA. The other encouraged me to study to be rich, to understand how money works and to learn how to have it work for me. “I dont work for money!“ were words he would repeat over and over, “Money works for me!“ At th
24、e age of 9, I decided to listen to and learn from my rich dad about money. In doing so, I chose not to listen to my poor dad, even though he was the one with all the college degrees. A Lesson From Robert Frost Robert Frost is my favorite poet. Although I love many of his poems, my favorite is The Ro
