If you live in the United States , the law says you can’t have a full—time job until you are 16 years old . At 14 or 15 ,you can work part—time after school or on weekends ,and during summer you can work 40 hours each week .Does all that mean that if you are under 14 ,you can’t earn ( 赚 ) your own money ? Of course not ! Kids who are between the ages of 10 and 13 can 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 Rissa 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 ( 技术 ) 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 .

Which of your hands do you use most ? Very few of us use both of our hands well. Most of us are right-handed. Only about five people out of a hundred are left-handed. New-born babies can take things with either of their hands, but in about two years they like to use their right hands. Scientists don’t know why this happens. They have studied it. They think our animal ancestors(祖先) are right-handed. This may not be true. Monkeys are our closest relations in the animal world. Scientists have found that monkeys like to use one of their hands more than the other—but it can be either hand. There are as many right-handed ones. Next time you visit the zoo, watch the monkeys carefully. You’ll see that some of them will swing(摆动)from their right hands and others will use their left hands. But most human beings(人类) use their right hands better and this makes life difficult for the left-handed ones. We live in a right-handed world.
