　　Passage 1 (选自大纲样题)

　　Teaching Children to Spend Pocket Money Wisely(选自Unit 6，Text A)

　　① School-going children need pocket money for food, stationery and bus fares.　　Parents give pocket money to their children in different ways. Some give a lump　　sum at the beginning of a month or a week. Others prefer to give pocket money on　　a daily basis. 26 On the other hand, the children's spending habits may affect　　how pocket money is given.

　　② Pocket money given on a daily basis is sometimes termed as "food money".　　Children usually use the pocket money to buy food during recess(休息) and also at　　lunch hour if they have school activities in the afternoon. They learn how to　　manage small sums of money. 27 Some parents choose this method of allocating　　pocket money in order to prevent their children from overspending, hoping that　　in time they can be trusted with larger sums of money.

　　③ Giving pocket money on a daily basis places responsibilities of budgeting on　　the parents, instead of the child. The child may spend every single cent of the　　daily pocket money by overindulging in junk food as they know they will get　　another sum of money the next day. This results in children being shortsighted　　in their spending. The thought of saving money never crossed their minds. 28　　Others spend more than they are given. They borrow from their siblings or their　　classmates when they feel like indulging themselves. Then they may ask for money　　to pay off their debts. This habit of borrowing causes them to depend on others　　to solve their problems. In such instances, the purpose of rationing is　defeated.

　　④ Children need to learn how to budget their money. The key to doing this is to　　differentiate between needs and wants. 29 This habit, when inculcated since　　young, stands them in good stead when they start working and earning their own　　money. It enables them to resist the temptation of "buy now and pay later"　　schemes.　　Formation of any habit starts at a tender age. There is no better way to teach　children to manage money than to start with their pocket t money. They need to　　learn the importance of budgeting right from kindergarten days. 30 When children　　learn to spend within their means, they are able to manage their finances well　later in their lives.

　　A. It is a good idea to start with daily pocket money and move on to monthly　pocket money.

　　B. The way in which pocket money is given affects how money is spent or saved.

　　C. Buy the necessary first, and indulge ourselves only if there is money left.

　　D. As the money is limited, they have to control their spending.

　　E. Parents who earn daily wages may also opt for this due to financial　constraints.

　　F. They may develop the mentality(心态，意识) that money is meant to be spent.

　　27 Some parents choose this method of allocating pocket money in order to　　prevent their children from　overspending,…空格前提到孩子如何花手中有限的钱，后面提到一些父母使用这种方法来控制孩子的过度消费，可知应选D。注意D中的limited和空格前的small呼应，control和空格后的prevent呼应，体现了内容的一致性。

　　lives.空格前指出从幼儿园时就要学会规划零花钱的重要性，后面的内容指出从小养成理财习惯有益于未来个人的财务管理，空格中应该就是这种方法-从每天的零花钱开始攒起，慢慢到每月的零花钱。

　　A.　Technology is making the end of traditional newspaper unavoidable.

　　B. And　instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you.

　　C. Despite　technological advances, it could take decades to replace newsprint with　computer screens.

　　D. But resistance to computer newspapers may be stronger from　within　journalism.
