【正确答案】 A
【答案解析】[解析] “afford”意思为“买得起”，最符合上下文的语意。全句意思为“你应该只买你真正需要并买得起的东西”。其他选项的意思与本句话不相符合。
【正确答案】 C
【答案解析】[解析] 本题的重点有两个：词义和用法。A项用法不正确，不能用“to promote someone to do sth.”的句型；B项与原句正相反；C和D项都是“影响”的意思，其区别在于“affect”通常引起负面结果，而“influence”通常引起正面结果。
【正确答案】 B

【答案解析】[解析] 本题的重点为同义词用法区别。A项“give”有不花钱白送的意思，不符合上下文的概念；B项的正确表达法为“provide someone with sth. ”，由于后面没有介词“with”，所以此选项错误；D项“making”在此处意思讲不通。
