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(投资)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.

举一反三
Glen, a teacher, realized this was a 38 moment about the importance of making people feel _39 . He asked his class to imagine they were about to _40 and to write a note "telling someone how and why you _ 41 him or her."
Sandy, who had a 42_ relationship with her mother, decided to write her _43 . Her letter read: "We"ve had some 44_ times and I haven"t always been a very good _ 45 , but I know I"m lucky to have you in my life. You"re the _ 46_ person I"ve ever known.And even when I disagree with you, I never _ 47 _you love me and want what"s best for me.Thanks for not 48 up me.”
When her mom read the note, she cried and hugged Sandy 49 but said little.
The next morning, Sandy found a 50 on her mirror: "Dearest Sandy, I want you to know being your mother is, by far, the most important thing in my life. 51_ I got your note , I thought I had lost your love and 52 . I felt like such a failure.I intended to 53 it all last night.Your note saved my 54 .”
Be careful not to underestimate(低估) the 55 of expressed appreciation. It won"t always save a life, but it will always make someone"s life better.

Colours are really made by reflected(反射)light. We see colour because most of the things reflect light. Something is red, for it reflects most of the red light. In the same way, if something is green, it reflects most of the green light. If something reflects all light, it is white. If it doesn‘t reflect any light, it is black.
Some of the light is reflected and some is taken in(吸收)and turned into(变成)heat(热能).The darker the colour is, the less light is reflected, the more light is taken in. So dark-coloured(深色的)clothes are warmer in the sun than light-coloured clothes.
小题1:When something reflects light, we can_______.
A.see its colour | B.see its heat | C.not see its colour | D.see nothing |
A.dark-clolured clothes | B.red-coloured clothes |

A.The author doesn’t has a knowledge of colour. |
B.The author shows off his knowledge of colour. |
C.To ask the readers to answer this question. |
D.To draw the readers’ interest in reading this passage. |
A. A travel book B.A history book
C. A popular science magazine C, An entertainment newspaper.
小题5:What’s the best title(题目)of this passage(短文)?
A.Dark colour | B.Colour | C.Heat | D.Clothes |
While the subjects—usually students—sleep, special machines record their brain waves and eye movements as well as the body movements that signal the end of a dream. Surprisingly, all subjects sleep soundly.
Observers report that a person usually fidgets(烦躁不安) before a dream. Once the dream has started, his body relaxes and his eyes become more active, as if the curtain had gone up on a show. As soon as the machine shows that the dream is over, a buzzer wakens the sleeper. He sits up, records his dream, and goes back to sleep—perhaps to dream some more.
Researchers have found that if the dreamer is wakened immediately after his dream, he can usually recall the entire dream. If he is allowed to sleep even five more minutes, his memory of the dream will have disappeared.
小题1:According to the passage, researchers at the University of Chicago are studying ____.
A.contents of dreams | B.dreamers while they dream |
C.the meaning of dreams | D.the progress of sleeping |
A.everyone dreams every night |
B.dreams are easily remembered |
C.dreams are likely to be frightening |
D.One person dreams only one dream a night |
A.the depth of sleep |
B.the subjects’ brain waves and eye movements |
C.how many dreams a person has |
D.what a sleeper dreams during his sleep |
A.was of most interest to him |
B.occurred immediately after he went to sleep |
C.occurred just before he woke up |
D.was the longest one to him |
reason could be that men’s hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age.
The latest study of the effects of ageing on the heart has found that women’s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.
“We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,” said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK.
“Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,” said Goldspink. “This is part of the ageing process.”
What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman’s heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one’s.
“This gender difference might just explain why women live longer than men,” said Goldspink. They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease. “The team has yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart,” said Goldspink.
The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise. Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age.
小题1:The text mainly talks about ________.
A.men’s heart cells | B.women’s ageing process |
C.the gender difference | D.hearts and long life |
A.women have more cells than men when they are born |
B.women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beat |
C.the female heart loses few of the cells with age |
D.women never lose their pumping power with age |
A.the reason why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart has been found out |
B.scientists are on the way to finding out why the male heart loses more of the cells |
C.the team has done something to prevent the male from suffering the greater loss |
D.women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20 |
