It’s a simple calculus, kids and money: From birth until college graduation, children consume dollars like they’re chicken nuggets.
For those of us who aren’t independently wealthy, that puts【C1】______pressure on the family pocketbook. The financial demands of raising a child require that money you【C2】______might use to prepare for retirement, or to save for a nicer house, a sportier car or a happier vacation, must be【C3】______for Lego sets and pediatrician visits and school uniforms and Christmas toys and a college savings【C4】______and a minivan and a trip to Disneyland...
I’m not saying this to【C5】______kids. I have two of my own, and money is nothing in【C6】______to the happiness they bring me and my wife. Yet happiness does not negate the fact【C7】______the moment a child arrives—and, actually, months before the arrival— your role as an adult changes in dramatic,【C8】______ways.
And so does your family’s financial life.
Not only are you now on the【C9】______for tens of thousands of dollars in costs over the next two decades, you also have a new【C10】______to teach your children about money so that they grow into adults who are at【C11】______in the financial world and who have a healthy relationship with money. You, the parent, are the first and most【C12】______link in that learning process.
【C13】______, the aim isn’t to mold children who only care about financial riches. It’s to raise children who grow into adults【C14】______are financially aware and who are comfortable 【C15】______the various aspects of money— whether spending, saving, investing or giving back.
Maybe your child does【C16】______financial riches. Maybe not. But the true【C17】______of your success in this endeavor is that your child, as an adult, never【C18】______to understand the basics of personal finance. That will【C19】______a far greater legacy than any【C20】______you might one day leave behind.
【C3】
选项
A、committed
B、embarked
C、replaced
D、substituted
答案
B
解析
动词辨析题。承接上题,此处说明那些钱现在要用在孩子们身上,如买乐高玩具、带孩子看病等。此处要能与空格后的for搭配,因此答案为B)embarked“上船或者飞机;着手,从事”,在此用其比喻义,把养孩子的这些花费比作一段旅程,不断有新的目标(花钱的理由)出现。A)committed常用于be committed to“致力于”;C)replaced常用于replace…with…“用……代替……”,不符合搭配;D)substituted常用于substitute…for…表示“用……代替……”,颠倒了替代双方的关系。
