     In some Western countries, many children do chores to get pocket money (零花钱). They usually

     School students have to do homework and study for tests. They don't have much free time on
 weekdays. They often do chores on weekends.   
     Young kids only do easy chores. So they don't get much money. But that's enough. Many of them only 
 want to buy candy (糖果). And candy is cheap! They often help do the dishes, sweep the floor, or feed
 the pet cat or dog. 
     When they get older, they wart to buy more and more things. They want things that ate more expensive
 than candy. So they have to work harder! They often help their parents wash the family car, cut the grass,
 or cook meals.     
     Some jobs are a good way for kids to learn new things. For example, they can learn how rouse a lawn
 mower (割草机) or how to cook. Of course, their parents help them at first.
