  As we grow up, we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs.These are influenced by society, our family, the education we receive and so on.Once this value system is set up, it's not easy to change later in life.Financial experts say that every one also has their own belief of how to manage their money.According to our different values, experts put us in three categories.They are:the ant, the cricket and the snail.

  The ant-works first

  Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don't care about enjoying the moment.They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire.The ant loves to save but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks(股票)with low risk.

  The cricket(蟋蟀)-fun first

  The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn't think too much about the future.They even borrow money when they really want something.Many young people now belong to this group.These people have little savings.When they get old, they might have problems.They should learn to save and buy insurance(保险).

  The snail(蜗牛)-lives under pressure

  The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves.They take big long-term loans(贷款)from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses.They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure they can afford it.This can cause problems in the future.They should plan more carefully.

  Well, Mrs Evans, I've done my best to look after David. I've tidied his room up every day, got him a meal together whenever he needed one and made sure he's always had a clean shirt to put on. It's not been easy, with two of my own to worry about, as well. David's had the best of attention, I must say. But now because I asked him to give up bringing that American friend to his home he has got quite miserable (可怜的) and unfriendly. He comes in at all hours and his behavior-it's quite hard to put up with-and it's all because of this friend. I'm sure he's a bad influence (影响). You see, David's a visitor and doesn't fully understand our ways.

  He used to study most evenings. He's got through quite a bit of work. He did up his room quite nicely, with bookshelves and large posters. He'd ask Mr Smith and me up for a drink and cheer us up with songs from his country. He's very good at the guitar, you know.

  I don't want to appear as if I'm running after him but it's about time we made it up. I'm sure he's upset because I told him off (责怪他). It might be a good idea to take him out for a meal, perhaps even with his friend. I don't know whether it will do any good but we can try. I'm glad I've had this little chat with you, Mrs Evans, and I'll let you know how I get on.

2.Mrs Smith believes that David is not the cause of the quarrel but that the main cause is ________.

[  ]

[  ]
