Learning to save money when you’re young is an important lesson. All good lessons and habits begin early, and saving is a skill that everyone needs. Many people-adults included-do not have a good sense of saving for the long run.   

I have been lucky to learn this lesson early because I have had a grass. cutting business since I was 10 years old. Of the money I make I spend about 10 percent and save the other 90.   

Making sure you save and don't spend too much is a good way to build up wealth.   I have put my earnings in a bank. Many teens I know spend all the money they earn so it never has a chance to grow. Young people should realize that their teenage years are a great time to begin saving.   

At high school many parents pay for almost everything, so your expenses can be small.  If you have a lob, you should have fun with some of the money. But you should also save some so that it will grow. Then you can begin planning for your future. When you spend money, you not only lose that money, but also lose the interest you could have earned by saving it.   

After high school, college is expensive and then “real” life begins, with expenses such as food and rent. If you can hold onto a good percentage of the money you earn as a teen, going to college and buying a house will be much easier.                              ,  the more money you’ll save and the easier it will be. If you are in your thirties without any savings, you will always have to struggle.   

Later in life it can be hard to start saving because general cots of living are more expensive and you may only have enough to pay your bills. If you want to buy fl house and have a family, you need money to start with, which comes from saving.   

Many say money cannot make you happy, and this is true. But money can help you to lead a secure life.   

Saving early will mean you will have to work for fewer years when you are older. It will also allow you to spend time doing the things that you want to d0.   

In addition to this, it will mean you can live the way you want to without worrying.

[1] Each of us has to be able to think scientifically, and to understand some science. Every day we face decisions that depend on science. Even for decisions that don' t depend on specific scientific facts, science remains the proven set of best methods for acquiring accurate information about the world.

[2] Decisions made by policy - makers in government or business fundamentally affect the well - being of everyone, and most of them know no more about science than does the rest of the general public. Yet they must decide what to do about global warming, expensive space programs, and applications of biotechnology. It' s the nonscientists, not scientists, who have the last word on whether we can drink safe milk. To make such decisions wisely, me decision makers have to be drawn from a scientifically educated public.

[3] As voters, we all bear the final responsibility for those decisions, because we are the ones who decide which candidates will succeed. We need enough sense about science to select the decision makers who will _______________ when faced with scientific questions.

[4] Even if science had nothing to do with the lives of ordinary people, a strong scientific enterprise is extremely important to our society. That requires lots of young people to become excited enough by science that they make a definite decision to become professional scientists. This requires, to some extent, the support and understanding of the general public.

[5] Scientists are not always able to communicate their findings in an easy - to - under- stand manner. Although the scientists should do a better job of explaining their discovery the general public have to expend some energy in making an attempt to understand what they have discovered. Familiarity with the non - official language of science, knowledge of some of the basic principles, and confidence in our ability to fit the new findings into our ever expanding scientific knowledge are valuable qualities of an informed citizen.

As Paige watched the other kids playing football in her local park she longed to join in. But at nearly nine stone (1stone equals 6.35 kilograms), the 11-year-old was too big to enjoy her favorite sport, she was well on her way to being another overweight member of her family. Mandy, her mum was 17th 10 lb and Anne, her grandma 15th 10 lb.  

Mandy, 39, and Anne, 67, both have a sweet tooth and share a love of all things stodgy. Recent figures show that two-thirds of kids will be dangerously fat by 2050, and overweight kids often become obese adults and live shorter lives as they are at higher risk of everything from heart disease to cancer and type-2 diabetes. Mandy says she knew things had to change for her and her family. Mandy’s mum Anne had an even greater motivation for wanting to slim down. Last autumn Paige went along to the Slimming World to keep her mum and grand ma company. In the first week on the Slimming World eating plan, Mandy lost a whopping 9.5lb. Mandy asked Paige to join in. They believed the Free2Go plan is balanced and nutritious and doesn’t deprive Paige of anything.  

Supporting and encouraging each other the whole time, Anne, Mandy and Paige all whittled away their waistlines. Mandy says: “My back problems have cleared up.” Anne has also noticed a real difference in her health. She says: “I feel like I’ve got my old energy back.” Paige is almost as delighted with her new wardrobe as she is about her foot balling skills. Mandy adds: “I’m just so proud of Paige.

BEIJING, Fek  13 ― Never has China's economic growth attracted so much global attention. The shock waves from the financial crisis (危机) that started in the United States have spread across the entire world, sending developed nations, including Japan and those of Europe, into serious recession(衰退). The world is now holding out hope that China, with its massive potential, will serve as the engine to fuel global economic growth.

But China's real economic growth slowed sharply to 6.8 percent in the October-December quarter. For China, this rate of economic expansion must be as disappointing as negative growth is for Japan. Beijing has set an official goal of achieving a minimum annual growth rate of 8 percent -- a pace it regards as important to ensuring job security.

The Chinese government is apparently confident the nation will achieve the minimum growth target of 8 percent in 2009. At the World Economic Forum's annual meeting of political and business leaders in Davos, Switzerland, Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao stressed the Chinese economy began to show signs of recovery late last year.

Last week, however, the International Monetary Fund predicted that China's economic growth in 2009 will be 6.7 percent. China's economic outlook is likely to keep both hope and anxiety for the time being.

           China's impressive economic growth has been fueled by swelling exports and massive investment (投资)in equipment to produce goods for overseas. But the US, Japanese and European economies, which have absorbed the bulk(数量) of China's exports, are expected to shrink simultaneous(同时)in 2009, for the first time since the end of World War II. For the first time since it started serious efforts to turn itself into a market economy in the 1990s, China is facing the challenge of maintaining healthy economic growth without depending on external demand.

           Expansion of domestic (国内的) demand holds a key to China's success in tackling this challenge. Consumer spending accounts for only 35 percent of China's gross (总的)) domestic product. The ratio(比率) is considerably lower than the 70 percent for the United States and the nearly 60 percent for Japan. That is because the middle class - the group that should lead consumer spending - is still relatively small in China, where the benefits of the nation's strong economic growth in recent years have mostly eluded rural villages and low-income earners.

 

56. According to the report, in the last quarter of 2008, China's real economic growth was at least ______less than planned annual growth rate.

A. 6.7%       .     B.6.8%         C.1.3%           D. 1.2%

57. Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. The financial crisis has had bad effects on many countries including China.

B. China's economic growth has been depending on exports.

C. If China intends to keep the same economic growth, it must increase goods for overseas.

D. Consumer spending in China is much lower than that of the US.

58. The underlined word in the last paragraph probably means____.

A. benefited           B. avoided       C. influenced        D. missed

59. What's the best title of the passage?

A. Economic change, the only hope for china.

B. China has attracted much global attention.

C. China, the engine to fuel global economic growth.

D. The financial crisis has influenced China's economy.
