【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了琼斯一家每月制定预算，以及他们的儿子蒂米在购买足球鞋过程中学会关于金钱和责任的重要一课的故事。
41. to make 根据“the Jones family sit down at the kitchen table ... a budget”可知，此处表示坐在桌子旁的目的是制定预算，用动词不定式“to make”作目的状语。故填 to make。
42. well 根据“managing their money”可知，此处需要用副词修饰动词“managing”，“good”的副词形式是“well”，表示“好地”。故填 well。
43. for “save for a rainy day”为固定搭配，表示“存钱以备不时之需”，介词“for”表示“为了”。故填 for。
44. a 根据“player in the school football team”可知，此处表示泛指一名队员，“player”以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词“a”修饰。故填 a。
45. kinds 根据“many different”可知，此处表示多种不同的种类，“kind”是可数名词，要用复数形式“kinds”。故填 kinds。
46. to find 根据“needs”可知，此处表示“需要做某事”，用“need to do sth.”结构，“find”的动词不定式是“to find”。故填 to find。
47. looking 此处“After”是介词，后接动名词作宾语，“look”的动名词形式是“looking”。故填 looking。
48. suitable 根据“pair”可知，此处需要一个形容词修饰名词“pair”，“suit”的形容词形式是“suitable”，表示“合适的”。故填 suitable。
49. needs 根据“Timmy's”可知，此处表示蒂米的需要，“need”作为“需要”讲时是可数名词，要用复数形式“needs”。故填 needs。
50. and 根据“money ... responsibility”可知，此处表示金钱和责任两个方面，用连词“and”连接。故填 and。
