It is time for students to sell such things as chocolate bars and greeting cards to raise money for their school, class or club. It is inevitable that they will knock on your door and you will easily hand ever your cash for overpriced items that you really do not want. That is okay, though, because there are many reasons why children should be allowed to raise money for their schools and clubs.
Fundraising(自筹资金) is a great way to help children learn social skills. It is not easy to go up to a complete stranger and ask them for their money. They have to nicely ask for help, show the interested buyer what they have to offer and explain how it will help them in school. If someone refuses to buy an item, that child has to take the failure in stride(从容处理), and that is a learning lesson as well.
Students can learn how to deal with money by fundraising. Of course, it might seem safer for us to take charge of our children’s earnings from their fundraising before it is turned in to the school. However, by making them keep track of it, count it, and make sure everyone pays the right amount, they are learning an important lesson. Dealing with money is important to know about when they are older.
Fundraising helps improve their schools. It is the child’s school. They have to learn there and grow there. Why not let them help in making it a better place? When one of our local schools lacked funding for sports, the students and parents joined hands to raise that money needed. When they succeeded, they felt they accomplished something important.
Fundraising allows for more life experiences for the child. Most fundraising is done for individual classes and clubs. The raised money is used towards things like parties, trips. The children receive the rewards for their hard work at raising the money. Without fundraising, these field trips and special school memories would be missed.
In a word, fundraising helps children a lot in many ways.

     Powerbocking is enough to realize anyone's dreams of super powers:jump six feet in the air and run at
25 miles an hour or more.But,instead of costing six million dollars,you can get a pair of "powerbocks"for
just a couple of hundred.
     Mankind seems to have a strong desire to get off the ground.In the late 1890's stilt walking(踩高跷)
attracted  Europe,with Sylvain Dornon walking from Paris to Moscow on stilts in 58 days.
     The inventor of the Powerbock,German engineer Alexander Boeck,studied the movements of
kangaroos in order to develop his original design.And the Powerbock allows humans to extend their own
Achilles tendon(跟腱)to come close to the length and power of those in animals like kangaroos.As a
result,exercising using the stilts reduces wear and tear on feet and knees while still giving the body enough
exercise.
     Powerbocking is considered as a form of exercise.You'll burn calories five times faster than jogging and
it employs 95% of the body's muscles.It's also an extraordinarily easy form of extreme sport to take up -it
only takes about 30 minutes to master the basics.
     For a start,you'll instantly add 18 inches to your height.And then you'll be capable of the most
extraordinary skills of athleticism.Flipping(翻)backwards 20 times in 20 seconds to set a Guinness World
Record,for example,or leaping over cars.Acquiring them_is an awful lot of fun.It's not surprising that
Powerbocking has been turning up everywhere-on talent shows,commercials and even as part of the
closing ceremony at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.
     But,he warned-if you're interested in taking up this sport,you need to know that no one can agree what
it should be called.The equipment is sometimes referred to as power stilts,jumping stilts,kangaroo boots
and many more.But there seems to be general agreement that the sport ought to be named
"Powerbocking"in honor of its inventor,Herr Boeck.
1. What do we know about Powerbocking from the passage?
A. It is difficult to learn.
B. It doesn't cost much money.
C. It is a kind of ordinary sport.
D. It was invented in the late 1890's
2. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Powerbocking can help people lose weight.
B. Power stilts and kangaroo boots are two different things.
C. Alexander Boeck is good at stilt walking
D. The invention of the Powerbock was inspired by stilt walking.
3. What does the underlined word "them"in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A. Leaptover cars.
B. Talent shows and commercials.
C. Guinness World Records.
D. Extraordinary skills of athleticism.
3. People think the sport should be called "Powerbocking"because _____.
A. it should have a regular name
B. they want to honor its inventor
C. the name has a long history
D. the name sounds most interesting
