3．C

4．D【导语】本文主要就孩子们是否应使用信用卡这一话题展开讨论，有人赞同，有人反对。1．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Whenwewalkoutofthestorewithourgroceriesorpetfoodorwhatever,it’salmostasthoughmoneyhasnotchangedhands,painless,easy.”可推出作者在第2段中提到了她的经历，主要是想说明信用卡给孩子们留下了什么样的印象。故选B。2．词义猜测题。根据“MykidswatchcloselyasIswipethecardthroughtheregister.”可知孩子们近距离看着，结合“toswipeitthroughthemachinethemselves”可推出他们急于自己在机器里刷卡，itching与eager意思相近，可互换。故选A。3．观点态度题。根据“Ramsey,however,disagrees.‘Throwingteensintoapoolof(credit)sharksisasurewaytoguaranteealife-timeofheartache,’hesaid.”可知Ramsey对青少年使用信用卡的态度是强烈反对。故选C。4．推理判断题。根据Pinto的话“Yes,therehastobeteachinggoingonandithastostartwhenthey’reyounger.You’renotgoingtogetridofcreditcards.Theyareheretostay.Youhavetohavethem.Youcan’tfightprogress.”可知他认为孩子们要从小学习使用信用卡，不要抗拒进步，由此推出他极可能同意“学习使用信用卡是很实用的”这个观点。故选D。5．D
