25、stantly shocked at how little talented people earn.I heard the other day that less than 5 percent of Americans earn more than $100,000 a year.A business consultant who specializes in the medical trade was telling me how many doctors and dentists struggle financially.It was this business consultant w

26、ho gave me the phrase,“They are one skill away from great wealth.”There is an old saying that goes,“Job means just over broke(破产) ”.And unfortunately,I would say that the saying applies to millions of people.Because school does not think financial intelligence is intelligence,most workers “live with

27、in their means”.They work and they pay the bills.Instead I recommend to young people to seek work for what they will learn,more than what they will earn. When I ask the classes I teach,“How many of you can cook a better hamburger than McDonalds?” almost all the students raise their hands.I then ask,

28、“So if 7most of you can cook a better hamburger,how come McDonalds makes more money than you?”The answer is obvious:McDonalds is excellent at business systems.The reason that so many talented people are poor is because they focus on building a better hamburger and know little or nothing about busine

29、ss systems.The world is filled with talented poor people.They focus on perfecting their skills at building a better hamburger rather than the skills of selling and delivering the hamburger.1.The author mentions the mechanic in the first paragraph to show that .

33、d they pay the bills.”可知,画线句子表达的意思是用自己赚的钱维持生计。3.A 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段中的“The reason that so many talented people are poor is because they focus on building a better hamburger and know little or nothing about business systems.”可知,有才能的人仍然很穷的原因是他们没有考虑商业体系,也就是他们缺乏理财方面的知识或智慧。4.D 推理判断题。通读整篇文章,根据文章第一段最后一句以及最后一段的

34、陈述可知,作者的写作意图是为了告诉我们为什么那么多有才能的人都很穷。EOnce when I was facing a decision that involved high risk, I went to a friend.
