     Scientists and experts have proved the uniqueness of finger-prints and discovered that no exactly similar pattern is passed on from parents to children, though nobody knows why this is the case.

    The ridge (隆起) structure on a person's fingers does not change with growth and is not affected by surface injuries. Burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced in time by new one, which bears a reproduction of the original pattern.    Some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own finger-prints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take.

     Finger-prints can be made very easily with printer's ink. They can be recorded easily.        Because of the simplicity and economy of this system, finger-prints have often been used as a method of solving criminal case. A suspected man may deny a charge but this may be in vain.      When a suspect leaves finger-prints behind at the scene of a crime, they are difficult to detect with the naked eye.

        Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible if a print of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained.

A. Special techniques are used to "develop" them.

B. A fingerprint is an impression of the friction ridges of all part of the finger.

C. It is only when the inner skin is injured that the arrangement will be destroyed.

D. With special methods, identification can be achieved successfully within a short time.

E. This is called a latent print.

F. His finger-prints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accident.

Teenagers learn by taking on more and more responsibility gradually. For many parents, this involves giving their children a limited amount of control over financial decisions. 

If you give your teen some pocket money regularly, take the time to teach them how to manage their money.   1  Consider providing extra income opportunities to help them learn that money is something you earn, not something you can get for nothing.

2   Discuss with them such issues as what the car can be used for, who is responsible for gas and maintenance, and who can actually drive the car. Show them how auto insurance works.

Get them involved with your day-to-day personal finance decisions, such as grocery shopping.   3  Show them how to comparison shop, pointing out how much money you save through comparing prices and using coupons. Let them sit with you while you pay the bills, so they can see how much all the monthly expenses add up to.

Encourage teens to save their money toward a major purchase. Besides, you can offer to reward them for their savings. 4 

 You might even consider showing them your bills when you pay them. Too often, young adults who get their first credit card consider it as free money and find themselves in debt very quickly. Make them understand that the $50 they charge today costs a lot more if they don’t pay it off quickly.

A.Another effective tool is to get them involved in the car buying process.

B.It’s easier to spend money than to earn it.

C.Finally, it is important to show teens how credit cards work

D.Establish an agreement on what the pocket money covers.

E. This is a great way to teach them the relationship between building a savings account and the positive rewards that follow.

F. Without money, you can’t do anything.

G. Have them help you with the grocery list.
