【解析】

這是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了父母應(yīng)該教孩子認(rèn)識(shí)錢并正確花錢購(gòu)物。

【1】根據(jù)后一句“so you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example”可知，所以，當(dāng)你的孩子對(duì)買東西、糖果或玩具表現(xiàn)出興趣時(shí)，你可以開始談?wù)撳X。G項(xiàng)“教孩子關(guān)于錢的最好時(shí)機(jī)是他表現(xiàn)出興趣”與下文緊密銜接，G項(xiàng)中的“when he shows an interest”與后面的“when your child shows an interest”相呼應(yīng)，符合語境。故選G項(xiàng)。

【2】根據(jù)前一句“If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier.”可知，如果他想要一個(gè)玩具，把錢給他，讓他把錢交給收銀員。F項(xiàng)“離開玩具店后跟你的孩子說說用錢怎么買東西”與上文緊密銜接，F項(xiàng)中的“the toy store”與前面的“a toy”“the cashier”相呼應(yīng)，符合語境。故選F項(xiàng)。

【3】根據(jù)后兩句“If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, explain, “You have enough toy trucks for now.” Or, if the request is for many different things, say. “You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.””可知，如果你一定要拒絕孩子花錢的要求，解釋一下，“你現(xiàn)在有足夠的玩具卡車了”或者，如果這個(gè)要求是為了很多不同的事情，說，“你得在這個(gè)玩具和那個(gè)玩具之間做出選擇”。D項(xiàng)“告訴你自己什么東西對(duì)你來說最重要”與下文緊密銜接，符合語境。故選D項(xiàng)。

【4】空格處是該段的小標(biāo)題。根據(jù)該段第三句“You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money.”可知，你可以教你的孩子如何在不同品牌的產(chǎn)品之間做出選擇，這樣你就可以省錢了。A項(xiàng)“明智的選擇”概括了最后一段的中心內(nèi)容，適合做該段的小標(biāo)題。故選A項(xiàng)。

【5】根據(jù)后一句“If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved.”可知，如果他選擇更便宜的品牌，允許他用省下來的錢再買一個(gè)商品。C項(xiàng)“允許孩子為什么他能或不能擁有某些東西”與下文緊密銜接，C項(xiàng)中的“Permit the child”與后面的“allow him”相呼應(yīng)，符合語境。故選C項(xiàng)。
