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】________. 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."
【C2】
选项
A、fortnights
B、decades
C、centuries
D、months
答案
B
解析
下一段提到该银行从20世纪50年代开始就出版漫画书,可见这一做法持续了数十年。用B项decades“数十年”。A项fortnights“两周”、C项centuries“世纪”和D项months“月”都与下一句话提到的时间段不符。
