What do you do with money? Do you spend it or save it? Do you get pocket money from your
parents or do you work to earn money?
Pocket money
Most teenagers in Britain receive pocket money from their parents. They might have to do
chores to get their pocket money, helping at home with tasks like cleaning, cooking, washing up,
taking out the rubbish and ironing.
Different families give different amounts and the average for eight-to-fifteen-year-old
teenagers in the UK is about ￡6 (53 yuan) a week. A report found that many children save at least
a quarter of their weekly pocket money and that more boys than girls save their money.
Part-time work
A part-time job is an option for teenagers who don’t have pocket money or who want to earn
extra money. About 15 percent of teenagers have a job. Only children over 13 can work but there
are some exceptions, for example, for actors. Popular part-time jobs for teens include babysitting,
delivering newspapers, shop work and restaurant or café work.
There are strict government laws about children working. They can work a maximum of two
hours a day on a school day but not during school hours. At weekends and during school holidays,
they can work longer hours. As for wages, the national minimum wage for under-18s is around ￡4
per hour and it increases every year. Its minimum wage is higher if you are older.
Banks
In Britain, some children and teenagers have a bank account. There is no legal ( 法定的) age
limit at which you can open a bank account, but a bank manager can decide whether to allow a
child or young person to open an account. Parents can put pocket money directly into their child’s
bank account.
So, many teenagers are getting experience of working part-time, dealing with banks and
deciding whether to save or spend their money. These are all steps towards becoming a financially
independent adult and earning and looking after your own money.
21. What do we know about the pocket money children in Britain receive?
A. 8- to 15-year-olds get about £6 a month as their pocket money.
B. Many children save over 25 percent of their pocket money.
C. Girls prefer to save more pocket money than boys.
D. Pocket money can only be earned at home.
22. What did we learn about children doing part-time jobs in Britain?
A. Children working part-time should be above 15 years old.
B. Children should work no more than two hours each day.
C. Those under-18s can earn at least £4 per hour.
D. Children are not allowed to work during school hours.
23. What is required for a teenager to open a bank account?
A. Reaching the age of 13. B. A bank manager’s permission.
C. A parent’s permission. D. Having a minimum amount of money.
B
I grew up in a three-bedroom brick house in the Park Hill section of North Little Rock, Ark.
It was a sweet, ordinary little home but reminded me of so much love.
I’ve always felt I was raised by a beautiful fairy. My mom, Nellie, was soft-spoken and had
an extraordinary smile. My father, Maurice, was a train conductor and his declining health was the
most defining aspect of my childhood. When I was 8, the doctors told us that Dad had a severe
heart condition and we needed to care for him. I developed magical thinking, which was vital to my
later acting. I’d say to myself that if I did this and that, my daddy would live.
After high school, I attended Hendrix College in Arkansas. When I was a freshman, they cast
me in a school’s big play. At the end, one of the drama professors said, “You don’t really belong
here. You belong in New York. They’d know what to do with you.” He gave me a list of schools.
He pointed to the Neighborhood Playhouse and said it was small but Sandy Meisner, the man who
ran it was great. I auditioned (试镜) and a month later, I was accepted. Mom and I started crying.
After moving to New York, my big break came six years later, in 1977. I took a meeting
about a movie called “Goin’ South,” with Jack Nicholson. After the audition, they said I wasn’t
quite right. Back in reception, I wanted to apologize for being stubborn. Jack was standing there.
He said, “Are you waiting to see me?” I told him I was but I didn’t have a script. He gave me one
and told me I’d have 10 minutes with him the next day. I made it to a screen test in L. A ．Later, I
was in Jack’s office and asked if someone could approve my hotel expenses. Jack was smoking a
cigar. He said, “Don’t worry about it, kid. You’ re on the payroll.”
Today, my husband, actor Ted Danson, and I spend most of our time in Ojai, Calif. I also
love the wildness of the mountains. I still own my childhood home in Arkansas. I haven’t been able
to part with it. Emotionally, the love from our parents is still there.
24．What motivated the author to develop her ability to acting?
A．Her father’s serious disease. B．Her family’s poor housing.
C．Her mother’s gift for acting. D．Her confidence in learning subjects.
25．What can be inferred from paragraph 3?
A．Her mother refused her to become an actress.
B．Her performance was common in high school.
C．She was declined by manager Sandy Meisner.
D．She was highly praised by the drama professor.
26．How did Jack feel to the author’s performance in the screen test?
A．Indifferent. B．Critic. C．Impressive. D．Neutral.
27．Why does the author mention her childhood home in the last paragraph?
A．To show her gratitude to her beloved parents.
B．To stress the beautiful scenery of her hometown.
C．To prove the excellent environment she lives.
D．To attract more people to enjoy the mountains.
C
Facebook's recent admission that social media may be making its users feel bad in some cases
is a significant milestone. So far, the technology industry hardly has talked about the disadvantages
of their products.
Academic research in a Facebook blog post in December documented that when people spend
a lot of time passively consuming information, they feel worse. For example, clicking or liking too
many links and posts can have a negative effect on mental health. Some researchers also believe
that reading rosy stories about others leads to negative comparisons about one's life and that being
online too much reduces in-person socializing. Social media may well be making many of us
unhappy, jealous and anti-social. Although Facebook said that, as a result of the assessments, it
would make some changes to its platform. It also emphasized some of the benefits of using the
social network. It explained that “sharing messages, posts and comments with close friends and
recalling about past interactions” can make people feel better. “The research and other academic
literature suggest that it’s how you use social media that matters when it comes to your well-being,”
Facebook said.
But that approach doesn’t seem to be an effective solution for those who can’t remain aloof
from such platforms. The Pew Research Center estimates that 24 percent of teens go online “almost
constantly”. It is becoming a matter of addiction.
We need to be aware of what we are up against. Remember when we would just pick up the
phone and call someone rather than email them and create greater misunderstandings. This may be
an old-fashioned choice, but the right one. And maybe we should just turn away from our screens
sometimes and meet our friends and family in person.
28. Why is Facebook’s recognition considered as a milestone?
A. Facebook has come to admit their products' negative effects.
B. The recognition has drawn a wide public attention.
C. The technology industry has made progress in mass production.
D. The technology industry has never brought bad feelings to users.
29. What may cause Facebook’s users to feel bad according to the passage?
A. Socializing in person.
B. Reading others’ rosy stories.
C. Liking your friends’ links and posts.
D. Sharing messages with close friends.
