      EAT YOUR VEGETABLES.Wash your hands. Always say  “please” and “thank you”. We are full of advice for our children, but when it comes to money, we often have little to say. As a result, our children may grow up with clean hands and good manners, but without any idea how to manage their money.

      Here are some basics that will help guide them their entire lives：

      Show them the future. If your 13-year-old girl were to save $1.000,invest(投資)it at 8% and add $100 every month, by the time she’s 65,she would have $980,983!

      Be careful of credit(信用).Credit cards can help you buy necessary things and build a credit history, but they must be used responsibly, which means paying off your debt in time. Explain to your children that when you buy something using a credit card, you can easily end up paying two or three times what you would have paid if you used cash.

      Teach patience. Suppose your child wants a new bicycle that costs $150.Rather than paying the cash, give him some regular pocket money and explain that by putting aside,say,$15 each week, he will be able to buy it for himself in only ten weeks.

      Provide incentive. Tell your children the importance of saving.  “For every dollar he or she agrees to save and invest rather than spend, you agree to add another dollar to the pot,” says Cathy Pareto, expert in money planning.

      Explain your values. Values and money are deeply intertwined, says Eilleen Gallo,co-author of The Financially Intelligent Parent. When your child demands that you buy something, explain why you really don’t want to buy it.” You might say, ‘I’d rather save that money for your education,’” advises Gallo. Every time you spend or don’t spend money, you have a chance to share your values.

67.The writer gives some basics to help          in a proper way.

        A. parents teach their children how to deal with money

       B. children follow their parents ’instructions

       C. children manage their money

       D. parents save their money

68.The writer thinks that, if a child wants to buy something, his parents should          .

       A. give him some regular pocket money

       B. encourage him to put money away for it

       C. explain to him the importance of investment

       D. tell him to save some money by using a credit card

69.The underlined word “incentive” in paragraph 6 means           .

       A. honor                  B. praise                   C. excitement           D. encouragement
70.What leads the writer to write this article?

       A. Parents want to know how to educate their children.

  B. He wants to share his good ideas about money matters.

       C. He thinks money management the most important for children.

       D. Parents care Little about their children’s management of money.

Coupons to spend
“How did you spend your coupons?”
On their first day back to school, many students in Hangzhou greeted each other this way.
The coupons referred to the 100 yuan coupons each student received form the city government before the Spring Festival holidays. Over 260,000 primary school and middle school students were given coupons. They could use them in local stores and supermarkets, or to see movies and buy books.
The same coupons have also been given to low income families in Hangzhou. Other cities, including Chengdu and Nanjing, also gave coupons to their citizens. More cities are expected to follow their lead.
Why are local governments doing this?
These programmes are all part of a broader effort in China to increase domestic demand in the face of the global financial crisis.
The crisis has seriously affected China’s exports and investments (投資). Many factories in southern cities have been closed down. Some companies are laying off workers or reducing their pay. The stock market and real estate market have been falling.
In a time of financial crisis, people usually respond by saving money. They are uncertain about the future and are afraid that more difficult times may be ahead. Now many people are choosing not to spend money carelessly. Major chain stores have seen a sharp slowdown in sales, analysts say.
But spending keeps an economy healthy. If people don’t spend, there will be too many products in the market. Then shops will stop buying products from factories. When factories receive no orders, they close down. The workers there accordingly lose their jobs. Also, if people don’t spend, the service industry suffers. The total result is that the whole economy breaks down.
Issuing coupons is a practical and effective way to increase domestic demand in the current situation, said Jiang Zengwei, vice-minister of China’s Ministry of Commerce. Hangzhou reported a rise in customers in local markets during Spring Festival holiday.
However, issuing coupons is only a temporary measure. To increase consumers’ confidence, the government needs to establish a sound secure social system in the long term. When people don’t have to worry about education, health care and their pension, they will be more willing to spend instead of saving.
【小題1】Why are local governments issuing coupons?

A．To increase domestic demand in the face of the global financial crisis.
B．To enable students to use them in local stores and supermarkets, or to see movies and buy books independently.
C．To help those low income families in the global financial crisis.
D．To show the government’s ability to solve economic problems
【小題2】What is NOT the influence that the global financial crisis has brought us?
A．China’s exports and investments have been seriously affected.
B．People begin to spend money without a second thought.
C．Workers are faced with losing jobs and the reduction of the salaries.
D．The active stock market and real estate market have gone.
【小題3】What can be inferred from the passage?
A．Issuing coupons is a practical and effective way to increase domestic demand in a long term.
B．The total result of saving money is that the whole economy breaks down.
C．The government may carry out new policies to encourage citizens to be willing to spend in the near future.
D．After issuing the coupons, the local markets have seen a rise in customers during Spring Festival holiday.
【小題4】If the government is to print a slogan on the coupons to restore consumers’ confidence, what might be used to promote the idea?
A．Spend now, save later.
B．Spend money like there’s no tomorrow; come on!
C．Spend money like it’s going out of style; let’s do it!
D．Big spender, wise spender.

Today，we are told，children don’t spend enough time in the fresh air．Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV—they seem to be living in a virtual world．They have lost touch with nature．

But now 400 organizations in the UK，from playgroups to the National Health Service，are encouraging children to have some“wild time”．They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside．Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city，they can go on adventures in the garden or the park．

Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad．They need to be shown what to do and where to go．Andy Simpson from National Health Service says，“We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development，independence and creativity，by giving wild time a go”．

    So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now，it seems that going back to basics and experiencing“nature’s playground”is what modern children need．David Bond from Project Wild Thing says，“We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine，freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted”．

This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe，like me，it’s made you think about sticking on your boots，getting outdoors and reliving your childhood．There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!

A．Wild time for children    B．Benefits of wild time
