In tough economic times, consumers see prices going up while their salaries stay the
same. They're looking at their old spending habits for anything that's not a necessity. Brent
Boyle is the author of the 2009 book Spending Less and Living More. In the Sotomayor
family, father Robert has given up his gym membership. "Why pay over $600 per year and
then drive to the gym?" Instead, Robert walks more places and rides his bicycle to work.
The family still owns two cars, but they traded in their gas-hungry SUV for a two-year-old
economy car. "A new car loses about half of its value in the first two or three years," says
Robert. So instead of paying $22,000 for a brand-new car, they paid $14,000 for a car that
The family is also cutting back on the little things. Robert's wife Lilia is making coffee
at home every morning rather than spending over $3 on the mocha lattes she used to buy.
That five-day-a-week habit was costing around $750 per year!
According to Boyle, most families can find ways to save if they're willing to give up a
few of life's luxuries. Buying ordinary blue jeans for $20 can save $80 or more compared to
the price of designer jeans. Renting videos and watching them at home only costs a few
dollars, but a family of four can easily spend $30 at the movie theater. And one of the
easiest luxuries to cut out? Everything you drink that isn't water. "People don't really need
all the soda, flavored vitamin waters, and fruit juices that they're drinking," says Boyle. "It's
kind of like pouring money down the drain."
In the past, Robert Sotomayor _____ to the gym.
The Sotomayor family's economy car cost _____ dollars less than a new car.
In the past, Lilia Sotomayor bought mocha lattes _____.
Boyle states that _____ dollars can be saved by buying ordinary blue jeans.
Brent Boyle recommends that people drink _____.
46- 50 為題組 Retirement Age
For many people, the reward for getting older has always been retirement. Sure---old
age comes with poorer health and eyesight, but if it means the end of work, many people
actually look forward to it. The situation may be changing, however, and retiring at the age
of 60 or 65 with a comfortable pension to live on may be a thing of the past.
In developed countries such as Japan, Germany, and the United Kingdom, people are
living longer, fewer babies are being born, and immigration does not significantly affect

population numbers. All of these facts mean that as time goes on, there will be fewer people
working and more retirees. Since all pension plans, whether government-run or private,
depend on workers to pay for the benefits received by retirees, this changing balance points
to one thing---a lack of money for future retirees.
Now, however, some experts are saying that this lack of money may not be as serious as
they once thought. Since people in the near future are expected to live longer and be
healthier than previous generations, they'll probably act more youthful, too. That means
The U.K. is considering raising its official retirement age from 60 for women and 65 for
men to 70 years old. In the U.S., the plan is to gradually raise the retirement age from 65 to
68, and a similar gradual change may take place in Germany. In the case of Japan, experts
once predicted that in the year 2020, there would be 518 retirees for every thousand
working adults. With people working longer, that number would drop to a more
manageable 417 retirees per thousand workers.
In Japan, the number of retirees compared to working people in the year 2020 will

(A) there will be smaller populations in developed countries.

(A) Many people look forward to their retirement.
(B) In the U.S., the plan is to gradually raise the retirement age from 65 to 68.
(C) The lack of money for future retirees may not be as serious as people once believed.
(D) in the year 2020, there would be 518 retirees for every thousand working adults.

Bodies and Minds in Yoga: a response to Yoga Body A new book has just come out into the crowded yoga marketplace: Yoga Body by Mark Singleton.

Instead this is a book that seeks to question some of the assumptions underlying
