30、.语篇解读 这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了美国的金融师 Anne Kersten 通过开办家庭讲习班来帮助孩子学会明智地分享、储蓄和消费。 并以自己的女儿为例来说明孩子学会理财的重要性。49答案 a解析 考查冠词。此处表示泛指，形容词 financial 修饰可数名词 teacher，且 financial 的首字母的发音为辅音音素，所以用不定冠词 a。故填 a。50答案 designed解析 考查非谓语动词。句意为：Kersten 主办了两个讲习班，主要是为家庭而开办的。分析句子可知，workshops 与 design 在逻辑上是被动关系，所以用过去分词。故填 designed。51答案 th
31、at/which解析 考查定语从句的引导词。句意为：这两个都是以价值观为基础的金钱管理讲习班，为家长们提供如何明智地分享、储蓄和消费的工具和谈话要点。分析句子可知，workshops为先行词，在后面的定语从句中作主语，所以关系词为 that/which。故填 that/which。52答案 wisely解析 考查词性转换。wisely 为副词修饰动词 share，save，spend 。故填 wisely。53答案 or解析 考查连词。句意为：参加讲习班的孩子或者可以得到一个蓝色的小猪储蓄罐，或者可以得到一个现金缓存。either.or.或者或者，为固定短语。故填 or。54答案 were解析
32、 考查时态和主谓一致。句意为： 当她的两个女儿只有 4 岁和 5 岁的时候，她们每人都得到了一笔零用钱，用来学习如何分享、储蓄和消费。分析句子可知，when 引导的时间状语从句为一般过去时，主语为 her daughters，所以 be 动词用 were。故填 were。55答案 goals解析 考查名词复数。句意为：储蓄是很重要的，因为它有助于为长期目标做心理准备。goal 为可数名词，根据本句句意可知，目标不止一个，所以用 goals。故填 goals。56答案 studying解析 考查非谓语动词。句意为：在国外学习了一个学期后， Kersten 的大女儿去年从大学毕业。sb.spend时间 (in)doing sth.“某人花费时间做某事”为固定用法。故填studying。57答案 from解析 考查介词。graduate from 从毕业，为固定短语。故填 from。58答案 to help解析 考查非谓语动词。句意为：她用奖学金和存款来支付学费。分析句子可知，此处为动词不定式作目的状语。故填 to help。
