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 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(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.

him early in the day, while he is taking a shower or having breakfast, the time of the call shows the matter
is very important and requires attention at once. If someone receives a call after 11:00 pm, he thinks it is
a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.
In social life, time plays a very important part. In the USA, guests will feel they are not highly
regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is only three or four days before the party date. But it is not
true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment
too early because plans that are made for a date more than a week away will be forgotten. The meaning
of time is different in different parts of the world. Therefore, misunderstandings appear between people
from different cultures that treat time differently. Being on time is thought of highly in American life. If
people are not on time, they may be regarded as impolite. In the USA, keeping business companies
waiting for an hour is too impolite. A person is expected to say sorry when he is 5 minutes late. lf he is
less than 5 minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the
sentence.
