Money Matters

Parents should help their children understand money. 【1】 So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example.

1. The basic function of money

Begin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services. It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have. If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收銀員). 【2】 When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more ways of using money.

2. Money lessons

Approach money lessons with openness and honesty. 【3】 If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, explain, “You have to make a choice between this and that toy.”

3. 【4】

Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands of a product –a name-brand butter and a generic(無商標產品), for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money. 【5】 If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved. Later, you may explain how more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases.

A. Wise decision

B. The value of money

C. Permit the child to choose between them.

D. Tell your child why he can –or cannot –have certain things.

E. Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to you.

F. Talk about how the money bought the thing after you leave the toy store.

G. The best time to teach a child anything about money is when he shows an interest.

試題分析：文章給父母提了一些建議，介紹如何讓孩子理財，什么時候最合適。

【1】G考查上下文串聯(lián)和句意理解。根據下文when your child shows an interest可知最好的教孩子關于錢的事情的時候是他感興趣的時候，G正確。

【2】F考查上下文串聯(lián)和句意理解。根據前文If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收銀員)，可知當大一點以后讓他自己討論怎么用錢來買東西，推斷在出了商店后討論怎么買東西，F正確。

【3】D考查上下文串聯(lián)和句意理解。根據文中If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, explain, “You have to make a choice between this and that toy.”可知對孩子的要求說不，告訴孩子哪些能有或什么時候那些不能有，D正確。

【4】A考查上下文串聯(lián)和句意理解。文章下一段討論了如何在很多商品中作好的選擇，明智的決定，A正確。

【5】C考查上下文串聯(lián)和句意理解。根據前文You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money可知有多種東西讓他們去選，要允許孩子在其中選擇，C正確。
