24、Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance (pocket money)． The purpose isto let children learn from experiences at an age when financial (财务的) mistakes are not very costly．

How much money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish is quite different from family to family． Timing is another consideration． Some children get a weekly allowance． Others get a monthly allowance．

In any case， parents should make clear what， if anything， the child is expected to pay for with the money． At first， young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it． If they do this， they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget (预算)． Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance． The object is to show young people that a budget requires a choice between spending and saving． Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs， like clothing or electronics．

Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your children for work around the home． These jobs are a normal part of family life． Paying children to do other work around the house， however， can be useful． It can even provide an understanding of how a business works．

Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they do with money． They can share it in the form of gifts or giving a good cause． They can spend it by buying things they want． Or they can save it．

Saving helps children understand that costly goals sometimes need to give up something． You have to cut costs and plan for the future． Requiring children to save part of their allowances can also open the door to future saving and investing． Many banks offer services to help children and teenagers learn about personal finance． A saving account (账户) is an excellent way to learn about the power of compound interest (复利息)．

Compounding works by paying interest． So， for example， one dollar invested at two percent interest for two years will get two percent of one dollar and two cents， and so on． That may not seem like a lot， but over time it adds up．

【1】Parents give their children allowance in order to ______．

A. let them make more money

B. pay for the housework they do

C. let them learn the value of money

D. help children manage family finance

【2】What is the second paragraph mainly about?

A. The time to give allowance．

B. The way to spend allowance．

C. How much allowance given to children．

D. Considerations taken to give allowances．

【3】Why are parents advised to offer children allowances as planned?

A. To have children save money for larger costs．

B. To give them more allowances next time．

C. To help children learn to make a budget．

D. To let children make fewer mistakes．

【4】What does the writer try to tell us?

A. The ways of limiting allowances．

B. The advice on a better family budget．

C. Offering allowance to children properly．

D. Teaching children to use allowances wisely．

25、阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

Do you have the experience of taking music lessons against your wishes? Perhaps you have complained about it because you thought it took you much playtime． But now you’d better thank your parents for their time and money spent on your musical training． A recent study suggests music lessons can make children have better memories than their peers (同龄人).

The Canadian study showed that after one year of musical training, children did better on a memory test than those who didn’t take music lessons.

The researchers made the children aged between 4 and 6 into two groups — one group of children took music lessons outside school, and the other didn’t take any musical training． In one year, they took four tests in different times． The results showed brain development changes at least every four months.

The children taking music lessons not only did better in musical listening but also made faster progress in other ways, such as reading, writing, math and IQ.

26、   Stephen Hawking was born in Oxford, England on 8th January, 1942. He went to school in St Albans — a small city near London. Although he did well, he was never top of his class. After leaving school, Hawking went first to Oxford University where he studied physics, then he went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology. As he himself admits(承认), he didnˈt work hard. He was a very lazy student, and did very little work. However, he still got good marks.

It was at the age of 20 that Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him. He started to bump (撞上)into things. When he visited his family at Christmas time, his mother was so worried that she made him see a doctor. Hawking was sent to hospital for tests. Finally, the result came back. Hawking had motor neural disease, an incurable illness which would make him unable to speak, breathe or move without the help of a machine. Doctors said they had no way to help him. He would die before he was 23.

At first, Hawking became very sad. After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way. As he later write, “Before my illness was diagnosed(诊断), I had been very bored with life. There had not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile things I could do.” Hawking married, found a job at Cambridge University, and had three children. He also went on to do some of the most important scientific research.

Today, Hawking still works at Cambridge University as a professor. He strongly believes that his story shows that nobody, however bad their situation(处境) is, should lose hope. “Life is not fair,” he once said. “You just have to do the best you can in your own situation.”

Ge Xuezheng, a g 【2】 student of Arabic from Shanghai International Studies University, had already started to prepare documents before the ceremony. He said he often has to work till late night and sleep in the office, but he fully understands the importance of his job. “Being a volunteer at the Import Expo will be an important experience for me to s 【3】my country and get used to interational occasions," Ge, who has been offered a job at China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said. Priyanka Shakya, a senior student from Nepal who studies textile engineering at Shanghai's Donghua University, is a【4】 volunteer. Shakya, who speaks fluent Chinese and has been active in volunteer work in Shanghai, said the volunteer work has helped her make new Chinese friends and feels the country's development  t【5】 those events.
