解答 GDFAB
26．G 上下文语境．根据文章第一段中的"Kids aren't born knowing how to be responsible．They must be taught．"可知，孩子不是天生就知道如何负责任的．我们应该教给他们如何负责任．因此，下文提出了一些父母能做的用来培养负责任孩子的一些事情．答案选G．
27．D 上下文语境．根据Assign daily chores部分可知，给孩子们安排日常的家务劳动是一种培养孩子具有责任感的很好的方式．答案选D．
28．F上下文语境．根据Teach kids how to be responsible with money部分中的"Kids who aren't taught to be careful with money grow up to make bad financial decisions that can end in debt and poverty．"可知，那些没有被教会如何细心处理金钱的孩子，长大后会做出很差的财务方面的决定，以至于债务缠身，导致贫穷．因此，在早期孩子们就应该学会关于如何管理金钱的基本知识．答案选F．
29．A上下文语境．根据Use logical consequences部分中的"Sometimes the consequences that follow their actions are enough to teach them to be more responsible for themselves and their things．"可知，有时候，他们的行为所导致的后果已经足够教会他们对自己和所做的事情负责的了．因此，没有必要再用孩子们所做的坏事惩罚他们了．答案选A．
30．B上下文语境．根据该段的小标题Model responsible behavior可知，提到的是model即模范的作用．再接合"Don't just tell children how to behave responsibly，show them．可知，不要仅仅只告诉孩子们如何表现负责任，要做给他们看，也就是孩子们会从父母的行为以及价值观中学习，答案选B．
