It’s a simple calculus, kids and money: From birth until college graduation, children consume dollars like they’re chicken nuggets.
For those of us who aren’t independently wealthy, that puts【C1】______pressure on the family pocketbook. The financial demands of raising a child require that money you【C2】______might use to prepare for retirement, or to save for a nicer house, a sportier car or a happier vacation, must be【C3】______for Lego sets and pediatrician visits and school uniforms and Christmas toys and a college savings【C4】______and a minivan and a trip to Disneyland...
I’m not saying this to【C5】______kids. I have two of my own, and money is nothing in【C6】______to the happiness they bring me and my wife. Yet happiness does not negate the fact【C7】______the moment a child arrives—and, actually, months before the arrival— your role as an adult changes in dramatic,【C8】______ways.
And so does your family’s financial life.
Not only are you now on the【C9】______for tens of thousands of dollars in costs over the next two decades, you also have a new【C10】______to teach your children about money so that they grow into adults who are at【C11】______in the financial world and who have a healthy relationship with money. You, the parent, are the first and most【C12】______link in that learning process.
【C13】______, the aim isn’t to mold children who only care about financial riches. It’s to raise children who grow into adults【C14】______are financially aware and who are comfortable 【C15】______the various aspects of money— whether spending, saving, investing or giving back.
Maybe your child does【C16】______financial riches. Maybe not. But the true【C17】______of your success in this endeavor is that your child, as an adult, never【C18】______to understand the basics of personal finance. That will【C19】______a far greater legacy than any【C20】______you might one day leave behind. [br] 【C2】
选项
A、therefore
B、besides
C、otherwise
D、however
答案
C
解析
语义衔接题。本句中you…might use to prepare for retirement,or to save…是定语从句,修饰先行词money,因此这笔钱的用途包括退休后的生活费用、存起来买栋心仪的房子等,而有了孩子之后,这些就都不能实现了,因此C)otherwise“不然的话,否则”,表示前后两种不同的情况,符合句意。A)therefore“因此”表示因果关系;B)besides“此外”表示递进关系;D)however“然而”表示转折关系。
