During her junior year of high school, Candice Backus’s teacher handed her a sheet and instructed the 17-year-old to map out her future financial life. Backus pretended to buy a car, rent an apartment, and apply for a credit card. Then, she and her classmates played the "stock market game, " investing the hypothetical(假设的)earnings from their hypothetical jobs in the market in the fateful fall of 2008. "Our pretend investments crashed , "Backus says, still horrified. " We felt what actual shareholders were feeling. "
That pain of earning and losing money is a feeling that public school increasingly want to teach. Forty states now offer some types of financial instruction at the elementary or high-school level, including lessons in balancing checkbooks(支票本)and buying stock in math and social-studies classes. The interest in personal-finance classes has risen since 2007 when bank failures became a regular occurrence.
Rather than teach investment strategies, these courses offer a basic approach to handling money: Don’t spent what you don’t have. Put part of your monthly salary into a saving account, and invest in the stock market for the long-term rather than short-term gains. For Backus, this means dividing her earnings from her part-time job at a fast-food restaurant into separate envelopes for paying bills, spending, and saving. " Money is so hard to make but so easy to spend, "she says one weekday after school.
After Backus finished her financial classes, she opened up a savings account at her local bank and started to think more about how she and her family would pay for college. "She just has a better understanding of money and how it affects the world ," says her mother, Darleen. All of this talk of money can make Backus worry, she says, but luckily, she feels prepared to face it.
The author’s attitude toward financial classes in public school is______.
选项
A、positive
B、critical
C、objective
D、worried
答案
A
解析
观点态度题。这篇文章虽然没有具体哪句话直接点明作者的态度,但是在字里行间说的都是学校上理财课的优点,比如第一段Backus感受到投资失败的心痛,第二段学校教学生们感受投资带来的情绪波动,第三段学校教学生基本的理财观念,第四段Backus妈妈对这个课表示赞赏。所以答案应该为A。
