　　I have been surprised each time my child has come home from school with a message saying his teacher wanted to see me.

　　I know my son seems very naughty: he cannot concentrate(聚精会神)on reading, he makes silly mistakes in his homework or often fails his exams.

　　Whenever such things happen, his teacher shouts,“Ask your parents to come here.”And then I have to go with my tail between my legs to find out what’s going on with my son and to listen to the teacher scold(责备)him.

　　I really feel sorry for my son’s mistakes and usually feel personally responsible(负责任).

　　But I cannot help feeling angry with him after a meeting with the teacher.

　　Gradually, I have realized that anger will do him no good, and that actually he needs my help.

　　On the one hand, I am greatly thankful to his teachers for their hard work and sense of responsibility.

　　On the other hand, I think that to educate our little emperors(皇帝), there needs to be more understanding and co-operation(配合) between teachers and parents.

Learning to save money when you're young is an important lesson. All good lessons arid 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 time the money has to grow. If you are in your thirties without any savings, you will always have to struggle. The earlier you begin saving, the easier it is to create a nest egg.  

Later in life it can be hard to start saving because general costs of living are more expensive and you may only have enough to pay your bills. If you want to buy a 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 do.

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

　　World top-ranked badminton player Lin Dan said last Friday that he was a better player than Taufik Hidayat in the year of 2006 despite losing the Asian Games single title to the Indonesian Olympic champion.

　　“I have ranked No.1 in the world for two straight years and I think people can easily come to a conclusion on who is a better player for the whole year,” said Lin Dan, also known as Super Dan in the badminton world because of his marvelous performance in the sport.

　　Hidayat beat Lin 21-15, 22-20 to give Indonesia its second gold medal in Doha on December 9, retaining his Asian Games singles title and avenging(报仇) two losses to the badminton world champion.

　　“It’s no problem, we’re close friends,” said Hidayat. “The media fabricated it.”

　　Lin said last Friday in Beijing that he and Hidayat remain friends despite all the rumors.
