W: (12)Now you’ve seen this table of figures about the pocket money children in Britain get?
M: Yes. I thought it was quite interesting, but I don’t quite understand the column entitled "Change". Can you explain what it means?
W: Well, I think it means the change from the year before. I am not a mathematician, but I assume the rise from 72p to 90p is a rise of 25 percent
M: Oh, yes. I see. And the inflation rate is there for comparison.
W: Yes.(13)Why do you think the rise in pocket money is often higher than inflation?
M: (14)I am sorry I’ve no idea Perhaps parents in Britain are too generous.
W: Perhaps they are. But it looks as if children were not better off in 2001 than they were in 2002. That’s strange, isn’t it? And they seem to have been better off in 2003 than they are now. I wonder why that is.
M: Yes. I don’t understand that at all.
W: Anyway, if you had children, how much pocket money would you give them?
M: I don’t know. I think I’ll probably give them 2 pounds a week.
W: Would you? And what would you expect them to do with it?
M: Well,(15)out of that, they’d have to buy some small personal things, but I wouldn’t expect them to save to buy their own socks, for example.
W: Yes. By the way, do most children in your country get pocket money?
M: Yeah, they do.
12. What is the table of figures about?
13. What do we learn from the conversation about British children’s pocket money?
14. Why does the man think the rise in pocket money is often higher than inflation?
15. Supposing the man had children, what would he expect them to do with their pocket money?
选项
A、Save up for their future education.
B、Pay for small personal things.
C、Buy their own shoes and socks.
D、Make donations when necessary.
答案
B
解析
当女士问男士期望孩子们用零花钱干什么的时候,他回答说他们可以用这些钱买点小的私人物品。因此答案为B。A“为将来的学业存起来”和D“必要的时候捐款”原文未提及;C“给他们自己买鞋和袜子”为强干扰项,这实际上与原文说的“不指望他们存钱给自己买袜子”相悖。
