One day before I was on my way to home from school, I found a building on fire. Immediately I called the firefighters.

Several minute later, the firefighters arrived and tried his best to control the fire. With the help of the firefighters, a lot of people left the building safe. All of sudden a foreign woman came in a hurry to tell the firefighters everything. So they couldn¡¯t understand what she said. I went to the woman and asked her what was happened. She told me that her daughter was still in the building. I told the firefighters about it at once. They immediately run into the building and rescued the little girl.

Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance (pocket money). The purpose is to let the children learn from experiences at an early age when financial mistakes are not very costly.

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 a weekly allowance. Others get a monthly allowance.

In any case, parents should make clear what, if anything, the child is expected to pay for with the money. At first, young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance.

The object is to show young people that a budget demands a choice between spending and saving.Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs like clothing or electronics. Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your child for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life.

Paying children to do extra work around the house, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.

Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or giving to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it.

Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice. You have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their allowances can also open the door to future saving and investing. Many banks offer services to help children and teenagers learn about personal finance.

A savings account is an excellent way to learn about the power of compound interest.

Compounding works by paying interest on interest. So, for example, one dollar invested at two percent interest for two years will earn two cents in the first year. The second year, the money will earn two percent of one dollar and two cents, and so on. That may not seem like a lot. But over time it adds up.

A. how much the child should get each time

A. what children learn by handling allowances may be beneficial in the future

B. children can learn to set up their own business with their allowances

C. keeping allowances in the bank is the best choice for children

3.The underlined words ¡°compound interest¡± in the passage probably means ________.

A. increasing curiosity to learn how to make more money

B. stronger power to hold one¡¯s attention to saving money

C. money paid by the bank on your original money and the gain from it

D. the sum of money that you earn from keeping your money in the bank

4.What is the best title for the passage?

A. Be Generous to Pay Your Children.
