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

Money lessons

Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands of a product---a name-brand butter and a generic (无商标产品),for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money.小题5:    If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved.

Shoopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. ____小题1:____. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman immediately produces it and the business of trying it on takes place at once. _____小题2:____.
Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way.  小题3:  . She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look around”.    小题4:  . She will try on any number of things. The most important thing in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. They are always on the look-out for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail(挂衣杆) to another before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a painful process for husbands, but obviously an enjoyable one for wives.  小题5:  .
A.Her shopping is not often based on need.
B.Few men have patience with this treatment.
C.So most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.
D.He knows what he wants and his goal is to find it and buy it.
E. For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants.
F. She is “always open to persuasion”; indeed she even takes seriously what the saleswoman tells her.
G. Finally the deal is often completed in less than five minutes with hardly any chat and to everyone’s satisfaction.

阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。(请注意问题后的词数要求)
My name is Clara. I still remember that chilly December day, sitting in science class. I’d finished a worksheet early and picked up a TIME for Kids magazine. A piece of news caught my eye: NASA was holding an essay contest to name its Mars rover(火星探测器).Before I even knew anything else about it, a single word flooded my 11-year-old mind, Curiosity.
I couldn’t want for the bell to ring so I could get started on my essay. That afternoon, I raced home, sat down at the computer, and typed until my fingers ached. “Curiosity is an everlasting flame that burns in everyone’s mind...”
Five months later, my mom received a phone call, and immediately, a wide smile spread across her face.
On August 5,2012,at 10:31 p.m, the rover named Curiosity touched down safely on the surface of Mars, and I was honored to have a front-row seat in NASA.
Curiosity is such an important part of who I am. I have always been fascinated by the stars, the planets, the sky and the universe. I remember as a little girl, my grandmother and I would sit together in the backyard for hours. She’d tell me stories and point out the stars, Grandma lived in China, thousands of miles away from my home in Kansas, but the stars kept us together even when we were apart. They were always there, yet there was so much I didn’t know about them. That’s what I love so much about space.
People often ask me why we go to faraway places like Mares. My answer is simple because we’re curious. We human beings do not just hole up in one place. We are constantly wondering and trying to find out what’s over the hill and beyond the horizon.
小题1:How did Clara get the new about the essay contest?( no more than 10 words)
小题2:Why did Clara have a front-row seat in NASA?( no more than 10 words)
小题3:What does Clara remember about the time spent with Grandma?( no more than 15 words)
小题4:What does the underlined phrase “hole up”mean?(1 word)
小题5:In your opinion, why is curiosity important?( no more than 20 words)
