       If you live in the United States,the law says you can't have a full-time
job until you are 16 years old. At 14 or 15,you can work part-time after
school or on weekends,and during summer you can work 40 hours each
week. Does all that mean that if you are younger than 14, you can't earn
( 赚) your own money? Of course not!  Kids who are between the ages of
10 and 13 can earn   money by doing lots of things.
      Valerie ,11 ,told us that she made money by cleaning up other people's
yards. Lena,13,makes money by knitting( 织) dog sweaters and selling
them to her neighbors,and Reisa said she had started taking art classes
and showing her work to people. People have asked her todraw pictures
for them and they pay her for them. Jasmine,13,writes articles for different
magazines !
          Earning is leaming. By working to eam your own money,you are
learning the skills you will need to succeed in life. These skills can include
things likegetting along with others,using technology and using your time.
Some peoplethink that asking for money is a lot easier than eaming it;
however,when you make your own money,you don't have to depend on
someone else. The five dollars that you earn will probably make you feel
a lot better in your hand than the twenty dollars you ask for.

If you go into the forest with friends who are older than you are, stay with them. If you don't, you may get lost. If you get lost, this is what you should do.

　　Sit down and stay where you are. Don't try to find your friends--let them find you. You can help them to find you by staying in one place.

　　There is another way you can help your friends or other people to find you. Give them a signal(信号) by shouting three times. Stop. Then shout three times again. Any signal given three times is a call for help.

　　Keep up the shouting, always three times together. Then the people who hear you will know than you are not just making noise for fun(开玩笑). They will let you know that they have heard your signal. They will give two shouts. When a signal is given twice it is an answer to a call for help.

　　If you don't think you will be found before nights comes, get some branches(树枝). Try to put them together so that they make a little house. Cover up the holes with branches that have lots of leaves. Make yourself a soft bed with leaves and grass.

　　What should you do if you get hungry or need drinking water? You should leave your little branch house to look for a river. Don't just walk away. Make a trail(痕迹) for yourself so you find your way back. Do this by picking off small branches and dropping them as you walk.
