How do you explain economics in plain English? The Federal Reserve Bank of New York has been answering the question with an even more【C1】______tool: comic books. And it’s been doing that for【C2】______.
The New York Fed has published comics about money and finance for【C3】______readers more interested in【C4】______since 1950s, according to Edward Steinberg, a former Fed employee who【C5】______several of the comic books【C6】______online today. In the latest ten years, Steinberg supervised a small team of writers and editors that produced the Fed’s print publications and educational【C7】______years, such as the comic books.
Distributed free of charge to teachers, the comics were mostly【C8】______high school students, whom Steinberg felt weren’t learning enough about the economy and personal finance,【C9】______some of the more advanced titles, such as The Story of Monetary Policy, have been taught in several college classrooms.
It’s no【C10】______that the comic books offer highly simplified opinions on the country’s complex financial systems, but they go out of their way to【C11】______dumbing down the content. Most of the booklets are more than 20 pages, and they’re packed with【C12】______and details that could【C13】______a teenager on a first read: The Story of the Federal Reserve System from 1999 starts off slow by comparing and contrasting the Fed with local neighborhood banks, but it soon【C14】______into specific information about monetary policy, open market operations, government securities, and reserve requirements. With guest【C15】______from Uncle Sam and a walking, talking bank, A Penny Saved offers a crash course in saving before touching【C16】______the advantages and disadvantages of【C17】______in the stock market, real estate, and fine art.
But the【C18】______part of the series might be the fact that Steinberg doesn’t even like comics. "【C19】______the work that I did at the Fed, I don’t have an interest in comic books," Steinberg says over email. "It was appropriate,【C20】______, that I had a job writing comic books, because everybody can try to earn his living through humor."
【C19】
选项
A、Other than
B、In addition to
C、On Account of
D、Prior to
答案
A
解析
上文提到Steinberg曾指导和出版漫画书,可知空格后the work(作品)指的是他当时所创作的漫画书。结合后半句I don’t have an interest in comic books,可判断他因为认可自己的工作才接受自己的作品。A项other than意为“除了”,代入后可表明他除了自己在联邦储备银行出版的漫画书,对其他的漫画书根本不感兴趣。符合语义。
