点评 完成七选五阅读时,我们可以从关联词上查找答案.由于英语的句段之间经常会运用关联词表示衔接和过渡,使文章逻辑更清楚和连贯,因此文章中和选项中表示各种逻辑关系的路标性信号词在选择答案时都是很重要的线索.在做题时可将这三个层面的线索很好地结合起来.

(48)D
A trip to the grocery store is a good time to explain price comparison,value and inflation.An ATM stop offers a chance to explain that money doesn't actually come from a machine.You can discuss both earned income,investment returns and even inheritance.Opening bills is a chance to talk about payment for services,credit card debt and interest rates.Children need to be taught about debt,specifically loans and credit cards.

•(37)E
Have you asked your high school or community college financial aid office about scholarships at your school?Many schools have a list of several scholarships right there.(38)D Check with community organizations,banks and credit unions,and large employers who may offer scholarship opportunities in your area.
•Find your"hook"
(39)A.Your unique characteristics can help your scholarship applications stand out.Pay special attention to awards that mention your best qualities,whether that's academic achievements,leadership,community service,or something less common.Think about why a donor wants to assist you in paying for your education.Most scholarship providers want to encourage a particular behavior.Companies may want to attract future employees.
•Develop a routine
Every scholarship is different in terms of when you can apply,what you need to turn in,when the winner is announced,and how the money is given to you.(40)B There isn't a single application or search engine that allows you to find and apply for everything.Visit the website for the Office of Student Financial Aid for lists of scholarship opportunities.Go through the lists to find the ones that match you best and keep track of when you can apply for them.

A.While you're searching,consider what makes you special as a student.
B.Typically,scholarship applications open in the late fall or early spring for the next school year's awards,but that also varies depending on the donors.
C.There is no doubt that college education is a necessary step to get yourselves prepared for the future.
D.Local awards can often be easier to get as the application pools are smaller and less
competitive.
E.Begin in your own backyard.
F.It's no secret that college is one of the biggest investments.
G.Believe in yourselves.
