解答 16-20:F B G C A
16 F 從前面的句子Why do their parents just give them a certain amount:父母為什么給孩子零花錢?這一句應(yīng)該是回答.故F符合上下文.
17 B 根據(jù)后一句中的weekly可知父母給零花錢的時間也是一個值得考慮的問題. 可知答案是:B
18 G 根據(jù)本段children are expected to make a choice between spending and saving.可知本段內(nèi)容是關(guān)于如何花錢,指導孩子如何做出預(yù)算,在該花錢的時候花錢. 可知答案是:G
19 C 從前面的句子:some parents pay the children for doing that.可知做家務(wù)是自然的,專家不同意這樣做,答案是:C
20 A 根據(jù)下一句Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice.說明孩子可能把錢省下來預(yù)備未來的用途,故A符合上下文.
