题目内容
16.Every month,Julia and her cousins would go for the big family meal at their grandparents'house.They would always wait excitedly for the moment their grandfather would give them a few coins.Then all the children would buy sweets.The grandparents,aunts,uncles,and parents realized that,behaving like this,the children would never learn to manage their money.So they proposed a special test,the children would have to show what they could manage to get with those few coins over the course of a year.Some of the children thought that they would save their money,but Ruben and Nico,the two smallest kids,paid no attention,and they continued spending it all on sweets.Every time,they would show off their sweets in front of the other children,laughing and making fun of (取笑) their cousins.They made Clara and Joe so angry that these two could no longer stand to keep saving their money.They joined Ruben and Nico in spending whatever they had on sweets.
Monty was a clever boy,and he decided to start managing his money by exchanging it:buying and selling things,or betting (打赌) it with other children,in card games.Soon he had surprised the whole family.He had saved a lot of money for little hard work.The way he was going,he would end up almost a rich man.However,Monty was not being very careful,and he hadn't a single coin left,after putting a losing bet on a horse race.
Poor Julia had a wonderful secret plan.When she was to complete the second year of her plan,Julia surprised everyone with a violin and a lot of money.They were hearing her play.She did it really well.Everyone knew that Julia loved the violin,even though the family couldn't afford to pay for her to have lessons.So Julia had got to know a poor violinist who played in the park,and she offered him all the coins her grandfather had given her if he taught her how to play.Although it wasn't much money,on seeing Julia's excitement,the violinist agreed,and he taught her happily for months.Julia showed so much interest that after a year the violinist lent her a violin,so they could play together in the park.They were so successful that gradually she got her own violin.
From then on,the whole family helped her,and she became a very famous violinist.And she would always tell people how it was possible,with just a few coins well spent,to make your wildest dreams a reality.
