Every boy and every girl expects their parents to give them more pocket money. One main purpose is to let kids learn how to manage their own money. The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. Timing is another consideration. Some children get weekly pocket money.
First of all, children are expected to make a choice between spending and saving. Then parents should make the children understand what is expected to pay for with the money. At first, some young children may spend all of the money soon after they receive it By doing so, these children will learn that spending must be done with a budget.
In order to encourage their children to do some housework, some parents give pocket money if the children help around the home. They believe helping at home is a normal part of family life.
Pocket money can give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with the money. They can spend it by buying things they want. They can save it for future use. Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice. Saving can also open the door to future saving and investing for children.
A. Others get monthly pocket money.
B. They can spend it by giving it to a good cause.
C. Why do their parents just give them a certain amount?
D. Some children are not good at managing their pocket money.
E. Learning how to get money is very important for every child.
F. Some experts think it not wise to pay the children for doing that.
G. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the right time.

【答案】C;A;G;F;B
【解析】本文主要讲述了孩子得到零花钱后的正确处理方法。
(1)根据下句:一个主要的目的就是让孩子想法自己挣钱。由此可知上句应该是一个问句,“问什么父母之给孩子一定数量多的前?”所以答案是C。
(2)根据上句:一些孩子得到每周的零花钱。与之相对应的是:另一些孩子得到每月的零花钱。some...others...,一些...另一些...。所以答案是A。
(3)根据上句:年轻的孩子在收到钱不久就会花完所有的钱。可知父母不能提供给他们更多的钱,直到合适的时候。所以答案是G。
(4)根据上文:为了鼓励孩子做家务,只要他们在家帮忙,一些父母给零花钱。根据下句:他们认为在家做家务是家庭生活的一部分。此处的they应该指的是“Some experts",说明很多人认为给钱让孩子做家务是错误的,因为在家里帮忙是孩子家庭生活的一部分。所以答案是F。
(5)根据上句:零花钱可以让孩子们有机会体验三件事。再根据后面的:他们可以花钱买他们想要的东西。他们可以保存供日后使用。由此可知B. They can spend it by giving it to a good cause. (他们可以给它一个很好的原因花钱。)符合题意。所以答案是B。

【题目】I grew up in a troubled home in the 1970s, on the outskirts of downtown Orlando, Florida. Not far away, a three-story house attracted my eyes.

It was nothing like the one I lived in with my mother, a small dark place with rules about befriending others. “Don’t. Never, ever talk to anyone,” my mother said.

One day, in sixth grade, a black-haired woman was introduced to our class: Mrs. Reese. Reese explained that she was starting Spanish Club. She invited anyone interested in learning Spanish language and culture to stay after school.

I could not take my eyes off her bracelets(手镯) and shining rings. The bell rang, and to my shock, no one went up to Mrs. Reese. I was under strict orders to go straight home. But that day, I stayed. I asked Mrs. Reese when the club started.

“We could begin right now if you like,” she said with a smile. I felt beautiful. That day I learned that the house of my dreams was her house. I learned how to answer questions about my age and my favorite food in Spanish. And I learned, “Do you want to come over tomorrow for cooking lessons?”

I wanted to say “Yes”, but Mom’s words held me back.

I begged my mother all summer and into fall, well after Spanish Club had dissolved. I wept at night sometimes, so worried that Mrs. Reese and her family would move away.

At some point, I managed to wear my mother down and one Saturday afternoon. I rode out to Mrs. Reese’s house.

The details of that afternoon are marked in my mind: We had tea. She painted my toenails red. We made a garlicky picadillo. We spoke in Spanish. In Spanish, my voice was loud and romantic. This is the real me! I remember thinking.

My mother never permitted me another visit to Mrs. Reese’s house. But four decades later, I still remember that day and the life she showed me, proof of a possible future.

3The author went to Mrs. Reese’s house ________.

We make decisions every dayWhen it comes to making decisions, choosing the right one can at times be stressful, especially if the decision must be made quickly. Indecision often weighs us down, but there are some useful tips for making quick decisions more easily.
Sometimes the key to making a quick decision comes down to planning ahead of time for just such an occasion. We all know we're going to come to an important decision-making point sooner or later, so having a plan already in hand can put our mind at ease when that time comes.
Overcome fear.While it may seem difficult to overcome the fear of making the wrong choice, many experts agree that we shouldn't be afraid to make the wrong decision, even if it seems important. The vast majority of wrong decisions can be corrected, while delaying decisions can often lead to more problems.
Write down all the advantages and disadvantages of your decision. Even if you don't have all the information, writing down all the pros and cons(优缺点) is a good starting point for figuring out what to do. In cases where there simply isn't enough time to write things down, make a mental list in your mind. Thinking of the pros and cons can help you organize your thoughts.
Determine criteria. Remember that every decision you make should come with a certain list of criteria.But once you know the requirements you're looking for, making a decision will become easier. Look for the choice that satisfies the list you've made, and once that choice is found, you should move ahead with it.
A. Have a plan.
B. The list may be short or quite long.
C. Communicate your decision with others.
D. And this can always lead to a clear answer.
E. So cut out any options that you know you will not choose.
F. Often, one thing that keeps us from making decisions is fear.
G. Some can be very important while others are not serious in the long run.
