Chen Jie, 14, from Ningbo, Zhejiang is a lucky girl. She got 3600 yuan as gift money this Spring Festival. However, her grandmother took away all the money and put it in a bank account.
Many students experienced the same thing as Chen. They got their gift money, only to immediately have it taken away.
Xiong Shengyue, 14, from Nanjing, doesn"t agree with the practice. "I think the money should be the children"s, " she said. " We should take care of it by ourselves."
It is not that simple, said Chu Chaohui, a researcher at national Institute of Education Sciences.
Giving gift money is used to show social status (地位)and develop relationships, he told Beijing Legal Evening News. Gift money has lost its traditional meaning of good will and has "little to do with the children". What"s more, children don"t earn the money through work. So he thought that parents should still play a big part in dealing with the money.
But Yan Honglan, a mother of a 14-year-old boy in Beijing, has let her son be responsible (承担责任的)for his gift money since the age of 8. "I want to develop his financial(理财) skills, " Yan said.
She also added:"No matter how you deal with the money, the most important thing is to make the children feel they"re respected(尊重) and trusted.
Chen supported Yan"s idea. She said that though she knew her grandmother wouldn"t waste her gift money, she would feel happier if she could at least know how the money is spent.
"It would make me feel a little bit more grown-up," she said.

Car accidents happen everywhere every day and are the main cause of injury in the United States. In order to control the increasing(增长) accidents, many states have passed tough laws. Also, car manufacturers(制造商) have been trying to make safer cars to save lives.
However, as there are more and more cars and drivers on the road, these safety measure (安全措施)are not enough to stop the increasing car accidents. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (管理部门)reports that a car accident happens every 10 seconds in the United States.
Car accidents may be caused by different reasons. Some accidents are caused by driver’s tiredness and illness or drunk driving. Some may be caused by speeding or running a red light. When this happens, by the time the driver realizes what has happened, it is usually too late. As for ages, young drivers usually have enough experience while elderly drivers of react slowly. Mechanical defects (机械毛病)such as a broken brake(刹车) are another cause of car accidents. Poor road and weather conditions can also be a cause.
Talking about different causes of car accidents can help us know what precautions(预防措施) to take beforehand. We should tell our friends or family members not to drive in poor health or after drinking wine. We should tell teenager drivers to be careful with road and weather conditions and let elderly friends understand their driving limitation(局限性)。Besides, we should have our car checked regularly(规律地). The most important thing for us to remember, however, is that we should always follow the traffic rules.

Both the young and the old may feel lonely. A three-year-old child will feel lonely when it is left alone, and an old man over eighty years old is often afraid to live alone, too.
Some people feel lonely because they may not have enough time to make friends. Not only the quiet, shy people may feel lonely. Some people are active and outgoing, but they are sometimes afraid to talk and make friends with others. They always try to hold other people away from them. They may seem to have lots of friends, but inside they are hurting.
Are you lonely? If your answer is “yes”, you may need to work hard enough! Here are some tips to think about:

Live in the real world! The world on the Internet is not a real world and it is very different from the real life. The students asleep in class are mostly those who often surf the net through the night. As a result, they’ll get lost in the real world.
Don’t wait for someone to phone, or write, or email you, you call them. And if they seem too busy, it doesn’t mean you are not welcome. Try another time!
