题目解答
答案
解析
本题考查动词词义辨析及上下文语境理解。解题关键在于理解短文的核心内容——家长如何分配零花钱的方式及其目的。需要根据上下文逻辑,判断空格处应填入的动词,使句子意义完整且符合语境。
选项分析
A. locating
“定位”或“找到”与“零花钱”搭配不合逻辑,无法表达家长分配零花钱的方式。
B. giving
短文多次提到“给予零花钱”的不同方式(如“lump sum”或“daily basis”),此处需延续这一主题,“giving”最符合语境。
C. taking back
“拿回”与“防止孩子过度消费”无直接关联,且与前文“如何给予”主题矛盾。
D. regaining
“重新获得”与家长分配零花钱的行为无关,语义不符。
上下文验证
原文首句明确指出“Parents give pocket money to their children in different ways”,空格处需填入与“give”相关的动词。“giving”既呼应前文,又完整表达“选择这种分配方式”的逻辑。
