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."
【C20】
选项
A、so
B、while
C、then
D、though
答案
D
解析
斯坦伯格不喜欢漫画书,顺接此逻辑则应推测他不愿意从事与漫画相关的工作。但事实上斯坦伯格认为写漫画是合适的。可见他的工作与“他不喜好(创作)漫画”的事实不一致,空格处需要一个带转折意义的词。D项though“但是;虽然如此”符合语义和用法上的要求。A项so表示的是因果关系,不符合此处的逻辑要求。B项while表对比,需连接充当从句的句子。C项then意为“接着”,表示承接关系。
