    Parents do need to teach their kids financial responsibility and that money is earned.Still,many child-development experts agree that tying a child's allowance to chores can be a slippery slope.Here's why.

    Susie Walton,master instructor at Peace in Your Home advises to keep chores and allowances totally separate. "Allowance is one thing.When it comes to chores,life skills,responsibilities-that's a whole different thing." says Walton.

    Walton says, "When kids aren't doing a chore,you don't say, 'Well,there goes your allowance.' You're going to sit them down and ask what's going on. 'We are a team.We are a family.We've got to have them done.' "

    Besides,by paying children for chores with an allowance,you'll also be sending the message that work isn't worth doing unless they're getting paid for it.

    There are times when it would make sense to pay kids for chores.Most financial and child-development experts agree that it's a fine idea to pay children money for extra jobs that are outside their normal set of chores,such as washing windows,washing the car or helping to clean out the garage-especially if the child is saving for a big item. This may even develop an entrepreneurial（企业家的）spirit to think outside of the box to earn money.

    For parents who are concerned that their children won't learn the value of a dollar if the allowance isn't tied to household chores,note that there are still plenty of money management skills to be learned from a straight allowance. Depending on the age,kids can be made responsible for paying for their own toys or snacks.Some parents even require that kids set aside a percentage of their allowance toward savings.

    "I really like having my own money," says Kevin,9. "It's up to me if I want to buy the cheap toy now,or save and get the better toy." And that's a good lesson to learn at 9 years old.

    No matter which allowance route you take in parenthood,kids will feel empowered by being able to handle their own money.

    1.According to Susie Walton,parents should________.

    A. teach kids the value of work

    B. pay kids allowances after they finish chores

    C. separate chores from allowances completely

    D. tell kids to take responsibility for earning money

    2.Which of the following would most financial and child-development experts agree with?

    A. A kid's allowance should be tied to all the chores.

    B. Kids can be paid allowances for their extra jobs that are outside their normal set of chores.

    C. Kids should be paid allowances to develop their entrepreneurial spirits.

    D. Kids should be taught to think outside of the box.

    3.What does the author think of Kevin's action?

    A. He approved of what Kevin said.

    B. He didn't give any opinion about Kevin's action.

    C. He thought it proper for a boy of 9 to buy cheap toys.

    D. He worried about Kevin's action.

    4.What's the main idea of the text?

    A. Parents should not give kids allowances.

    B. Whether kids should do chores at home.

    C. Whether kids should keep allowances for later use.

    D. Whether parents should pay kids for chores.

    12．In the United States，30 percent of the people have a"weight problem"．To many people the cause is obvious（明显的）：They eat too much．But scientific evidence does little to support this idea．Going back to America of 1910，we find that people were thinner than today，yet they ate more food．In those days people worked harder physically，walked more，used machines much less，and didn't watch television．
    Several modern studies，moreover，have shown that fatter people don't eat more on average than thinner people．A 1979 study of 3，545 London office workers shows that fat people eat less than slim（苗条的）people．
    Studies also show that slim people are more active than fat people．A study by a research group at Stanford University found the following interesting facts：The more the man ran，the greater loss of the body fat．The more they ran，the greater increase in food intake．
    Thus，those who ran the most ate the most，yet lost the greatest amount of body fat．

    32．Nowadays many Americans have the problem thatC．
    A．they are too slim
    B．they work too hard
    C．they are too fat
    D．they lose too much body fat
    33．According to the passage，how many people in 900 Americans have a"weight problem"？D
    A.150．B.300．C.600．D.270．
    34．Is there any scientific evidence to support the idea that eating too much is the cause of a"weight problem"？C
    A．Yes，there is plenty of evidence．
    B．Of course，there is some evidence to support this．
    C．There is hardly any scientific evidence to support this．
    D．We are not sure．
    35．The Americans in 1910A．
    A．ate more food and had more physical activities
    B．ate less food but had more physical activities
    C．ate less food and had less physical activities
    D．had more problems．

    I like eating fruit and vegetables what are of great benefit to our healthy. Not only do they prevent us from falling into ill, but they help us lose weight. I used to hate vegetables, but follow the doctor’s advice, I gradually kicked the bad habit. Just as an old saying going, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away”. However, there are still many child disliking fruit and vegetables. On contrary, influenced by this or that kind of advertisement, many were crazy about junk food. Consequently, they become weaker and weaker instead of getting strong. In my opinion, we must take action to change them.

    Life's greatest joys and its greatest sorrows often come from the relationships we have developed with others.

    In our world today,it seems that most people struggle for happiness through pleasant physical surroundings and economic security.These are great,but if there is conflict in human relations,these things do not bring happiness. Think about the last time you were having an argument or a disagreement with one of your co-workers,your boss, your friend,or a family member.Was it easy or difficult to focus on your priorities（优秀考虑的事）?Even though you might have been having some success m many areas of your life,did you find yourself still feeling some discomfort due to the stress in that particular relationship?On the contrary,you may know people who are happy in great poverty and with physical stress if they have meaningful,pleasant relations with people around them.

    Consider the most relationship that you have ever had with any individual（个人）.To some degree it probably is or was marked by absolute honesty,deep levels of trust,respect for that person's skills,knowledge,or abilities,open communication,acceptance of differing views,and little concern for images（形象）.

    In effort to make the relationships we currently have the best that they can be,remember that persuasion usually cannot take place unless there is some sort of close,meaningful connection between the two people involved.The result will be a relationship of respect and progression.

    Many of us have difficulty in accepting the faults and weaknesses of others; co-workers,work leaders,family members,or members of our social or religious groups.Our tendency to demand perfection of others can cause us to lose sight that we,ourselves,are less than perfect.Undoubtedly,there are differences among us.Some of us are even cruel and unpleasant.Others may have cultural differences that are blocks that affect us.But learning to look for the similarities instead of those things that set us apart,bearing differences,and seeing the best in others rather than the worst will lead to relationships of deep respect and lasting value.

    1.Paragraph 2 was written in order to .

    A. raise a new problem B. list some arguments

    C. introduce the main idea D. analyze the back ground

    2.In order to have good relationships with a person,we should .

    A. try to persuade him to accept our ideas B. help him gain some knowledge

    C. show our honesty and trust him D. improve our own capabilities

    3.People cannot accept others' shortcomings mainly because .

    A. they attached too much importance to others' words

    B. they can't have a trustworthy relationship

    C. they refuse to admit the cultural differences

    D. they have higher demands on other people

    4.What's the best title for the passage?

    A. A Good Understanding of Relationships

    B. Build Lasting Relationships with Others

    C. Deep Respect Leads to Good Relationships

    D. Discomfort Caused by Bad Relationships
