9.If you live in the United States,the law says you can't have a full-time job until you are 16years old.At 14or 15,you can work part-time after school or on weekends,and during summer you can work 40hours each week.Does all that mean that if you are younger than 14,you can't earn (赚) your own money?Of course not!Kids who are between the ages of 10and 13can earn money by doing lots of things.Valerie,11,told us that she made money by cleaning up other people's yards.Lena,13,makes money by knitting (织) dog sweaters and selling them to her neighbors,and Reisa said she had started taking art classes and showing her work to people.People have asked her to draw pictures for them and they pay her for them.Jasmine,13,writes articles for different magazines!
Earning is learning.By working to earn your own money,you are learning the skills you will need to succeed in life.These skills can include things like getting along with others,using technology and using your time.Some people think that asking for money is a lot easier than earning it,however,when you make your own money,you don't have to depend on someone else.The five dollars that you earn will probably make you feel a lot better in your hand than the twenty dollars you ask for.

分析 【文章大意】如果你生活在美国,法律规定直到你16岁你才能有一个全职工作.在14或15岁,你可以在课后或周末做兼职的工作,并在夏季可以每周工作40小时.这意味着,如果你超过14岁,你不能赚得自己的钱?当然不.孩子们在10到13岁之间可以做事情,赚许多钱.同时列举了几个孩子的挣钱过程,通过打工挣自己的钱,你正在学习的技巧,你需要成功的生活.这些技能包括可以帮助你与他人相处,使用技术和利用你的时间.有些人认为要钱比赚钱更容易;但是,当你自己赚钱的时候,你不需要依赖别人.哪怕你赚5美元也比向别人要20美元的感觉要好得多.
解答 46.A.细节理解题.根据文章第一段:If you live in the United States,the law(法律) says you can't have a full-time job until you are 16 years old.可知句意:如果你住在美国,法律规定你要16岁后才能有全职工作.所以此题孩子在17岁的时候可以有全职工作.故选A
47.D.推理判断题.根据文章第一段:At 14 or 15,you can work part-time after school or on weekends,and during summer vacations you can work 40 hours each week.可知句意:14、15岁时,你可以在放学后或是周末做兼职工作,暑假期间,你可以每周工作40个小时.由此可推断出,15岁时不能在上学期间工作.故选D
48.B.推理判断题.根据文章第二段:Reisa said she had started taking art classes and showing her works to people.People have asked her draw pictures for them and they pay her for them.可知句意:Reisa 说她已经开始上美术课,把她的作品给人们看.人们已经叫她给他们画画,并且付钱给她.可知Lisa是通过替别人画画来赚钱.故选B
49.D.细节理解题.根据文章第三段:By working to earn your own money,you are learning the skills you need to succeed in life.These skills can include things like getting along with others,using technology(技术) and using your time.可知句意:通过工作自己赚钱,你会学到你生活中成功需要的技能.这些技能包括与人相处、使用技术和利用自己的时间.由此可知美国小孩赚钱时不用与人相处是错误的.故选D
50.C.细节理解题.根据文章第三段:Earning is learning.By working to earn your own money,you are learning the skills you will need to succeed in life.可知如果孩子试着自己赚钱,孩子会学到一些所需要的技能.可知应选C
