【要点综述】
年轻时就要学会省钱，这是重要的一课。所有好的习惯都开始于青年时代……新时代的青年人如何花钱、省钱、存钱是值得我们思考的问题。
1．A 由语境可知，省钱应该是每一个人都需要的技能。
2．D have a good sense of“对……有明确的意识”。句意为：很多人，包括成年人，对为了长远打算而省钱都没有明确的意识。这里强调的是认识上的问题，所以不能用knowledge。
3．C 第一段告诉我们，早点接受省钱的教育是很好的，而“我”恰恰在小时候就上了这样的课，自然是很幸运了。foolish意为“愚蠢的，傻的”；fundamental意为“基本的，主要的”；grateful意为“感激的”。 专题三 │ 新题预测
4．B 这里表示范围，意思是“在我赚的钱中”，所以要用of。
5．B build up在此表示“逐渐积累(资金等)”。句意为：要确保储蓄而不挥霍是增长财富的好方法。divide up意为“分配”；keep up意为“保持，维持”；make up意为“弥补，编造”。
6．D grow意为“增加，增长”。既然花掉了所有的钱，钱就不可能增多。
7．B realize意为“意识到”，符合语境。recognize意为“认出”；research意为“研究，调查”；doubt意为“怀疑”。
8．C should意为“应该”，在这里表示按情理推出的较大的可能性，符合语境。may意为“可能，也许”，表示不太肯定的推测。 专题三 │ 新题预测
9．A 由语境知“it will grow”是“you should also save some”的结果，所以用so that引导结果状语从句。in case意为“以防万一”；in that意为“因为，由于”；but for意为“要不是”。
10．A not only…but also是并列连词，可以省略also。
11．A 由下文的“with expenses such as food and rent”可以看出，大学的费用应该是比较昂贵的。
12．C hold onto意为“紧紧抓住”，在这里引申为：不花掉，积攒。句意为：如果你能把少年时期赚的钱积攒一些的话，那么你上大学、买房子就轻松多了。hold out意为“伸出，维持”；hold up意为“阻挡，使停顿”；hold back意为“抑制，退缩”。
专题三 │ 新题预测
13．B 很显然，这里是从反面论证从小学会节约的好处：如果你到30岁还没有积蓄，那你将不得不努力了。所以要选struggle“奋斗，努力”。survive意为“幸存”；tolerate意为“忍耐”；die意为“死亡”。
14．D 很显然，后一个分句解释的是“Later in life it can be hard to start saving”的原因，所以选since表示“因为，由于”。
15．A pay the bills指支付生活中的各种账单，符合语境。pay the taxes意为“交税”；pay attention意为“注意”；pay consequences意为“承担后果”。
16．C come from意为“来自”。这里要表达的意思是：这些钱来自你节省下来的钱。 专题三 │ 新题预测
17．D secure意为“安心的，无虑的”。文章最后一句有暗示。句意为：钱可以帮你过一种安心的生活。由上一句话可以排除A。simple意为“简朴的”；miserable意为“凄惨的”，都不符合语境。
18．B 这样就可以做一些自己喜欢的事情了。allow意为“允许，准许”。
19．A 这里承接上一段的两个方面进一步阐述早点开始攒钱的好处，所以应该选择in addition，意为“另外，除……之外”。
20．B 语境为：此外，从早些时候开始攒钱还意味着你可以无忧地按你想要的生活方式生活。consult意为“咨询，商量”；rest意为“休息”；think意为“思考”。 专题导读 专题三 │专题导读
议论文是高考完形填空题中较难的一种文体，它一般由三个要素组成：论点、论据、结论。要做好议论文型完形填空，最重要的是抓住作者的论点。不同的议论文论点的提出方式往往不同，大体有以下三种情况：
1. 开门见山地提出论点。有些议论文在文章的一开始就提出论点，然后再通过具体的论据去说明论点，论据有时候既有正面的论据，也有反面的论据，最后总结全文。
专题三 │专题导读
2. 导入式提出论点。有些议论文会先通过叙述生活中的一件具体的事情或描述生活中的现象，然后根据事情或现象所反映的问题提出自己的论点，再用具体的论据去说明自己的论点。
3. 最后提出论点。有些议论文一开始作者仅仅是列举生活中的现象，而不表明自己的观点，而是通过对具体现象的分析，自然得出一种结论，这种结论往往就是作者的论点。对于纯议论形式的完形填空，要在掌握全文主旨的情况下，抓住每段的首句，即主旨句。抓住了每段的主旨句也就是把握了文章的脉络，理解文意就容易了。

1．B 他给他们讲述了他爷爷——一位银行家，在20世纪30年代失去了一切但没有忘记他最重视的东西的故事。本句中but后面的lose sight of暗示本空应填lost。
2．A 首先要弄清本句的主句是：he loaded his family into the car and…由此可知设空处引导定语从句，再根据句意可知此处用表示时间的关系副词when。
3．C 根据上文________(lost)all in the 1930s可知本空答案应为penniless(身无分文)。 专题三 │真题典例
4．D 爷爷用车把全家人带到加拿大。take带走；fetch去取；allow允许；expect期望。由题意可知，本题答案应为D项。
5．D 空后的句子There are more important things in life than money为设空处的同位语，而该句应该是爷爷的一种“信念”，不是“希望”、“诺言”和“建议”，故答案为D项。
6．A 根据首段最后一词及第二段整段内容可知本题答案为A。
7．B 本句改为：Mr.Guyer downsized from a more expensive and comfortable one to a … house后可知答案为B项。Guyer先生原来住的房子价格不菲，而且住起来非常舒适，而现在却住在一所小房子里。 专题三 │真题典例
8．D 由于生活条件变得很差，故Guyer先生担心孩子们会感到不舒服。surprised感到奇怪的；annoyed感到烦恼的；disappointed感到失望的；worried担心的。
9．C 使他感到奇怪的是，他们并没有感到不舒服。相反，他们的反应与他们的曾祖父一样。instead用来表示与前面提到的事情相反。
10．B 从下文可知，孩子们并没有因生活条件变得糟糕而感到不舒服，他们关心的是这所房子里的一家人有多温暖、他们的心有多贴近。care about关心，担心；talk about谈论；write about写关于……的内容；hear about听说。
11．A 根据句意可知，孩子们关心的是全家人心灵之间的贴近度(有多么贴近)，much表程度，符合句意。 专题三 │真题典例
12．D through hard times意为“度过艰难时期”。
13．C 讲故事的专家说这种现象反映了(人们)对讲故事越来越感兴趣，这一点从不断增加地对各种事件及节日故事的讲述上得到了印证。interest兴趣；argument争辩；skill技巧，技能；anxiety焦虑，担忧。
14．A 根据句意可知，此处指一项对65个家庭所做的研究。study研究；design设计；committee委员会；staff全体职工，全体人员。故A项符合句意。
15．B 阅读全文可知通过父母给孩子讲故事再让孩子复述这些故事这一过程，孩子们减少了生气和焦虑。 专题三 │真题典例
16．D (讲故事的)技巧是用孩子们能够倾听的方式来讲(故事)。根据句意可知D项正确。
17．C 根据句意可知此处表示“倾听”，故B项不正确。perform履行，完成，演出；question询问，质疑，均不符合句意，故选C。
18．C that begins 意为“是那样开始的”。由后面叙述提示可知答案。
19．A 根据上句可知，所讲的故事应该符合孩子们的需要而不是“活动(activities)”、“判断(judgments)”或“习惯(habits)”。
20．B 根据句子结构可知，此处应是一个宾语从句引导词，且从句中动词take缺少宾语，所以用what既作宾语从句的引导词又在从句中作宾语。 专题三 │ 新题预测
