Many children first learn the value of money by planning the use of an allowance (零用錢(qián)). The purpose of it is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly. The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend differs from one family to another. Timing is another consideration. Some children get a weekly allowance. Others get a monthly allowance.
In any case, parents should make it clear what their child expects to pay for with the money. At first, young children may spend all of their allowances soon after they receive them. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget (預(yù)算). Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance.
The object is to show young people that budgeting means making choices between spending and saving. Older children may be responsible (有責(zé)任感的) enough to save money for larger costs, like clothing or electronics. Sometimes paying children to do extra work around the house can be useful.
Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or use it to do good things; they can spend it by buying things they want; or they can save it. Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice (舍棄) — 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 finances.
For example, one dollar invested at two percent interest (利息) for two years will earn two cents in the first year. The second year, the money will earn two percent of one dollar and two cents, and so on. That may not seem like a lot. But over time it adds up.

Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer” and writing. In most cases individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter. “You’ve got to want to write,” I say to them, not want to be a writer.”
The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the US Coast Guard to become a freelance writer(自由撰稿者), I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me a room in a New York apartment building. It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.
After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t got a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for years, I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering. What if? I would keep putting my dream to the test-even though it meant living with uncertainly and fear of failure. This is the shadowland of hope, and any one with a dream must learn to live there.
1. The passage is meant to                 .
warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experience
advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer
show young people it’s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fame
encourage young people to pursue a writing career
2. What can be concluded from the passage?
Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.
A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on effort.
Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.
The chances for a writer to become successful are small
3. Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?
He wasn’t able to produce a single look.
He hadn’t seen a change for the better
He wasn’t able to have a rest for a whole year.
He found his dream would never come true.
4. “I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering. What if?” refers to “those               .”
who think too much of the dark side of life
who regret giving up their career halfway
who think a lot without making a decision
who are full of imagination even upon death
5. “Shadowland” in the last paragraph refers to              .
the wonderland one often dream about
the bright future that one is looking forward to
the state of uncertainty before one’s final goal is reached
a world that exists only in one’s imagination

A man was driving at 70 miles in a 40-mile-zone, when a police car came behind him with the flashers(警燈) on. As he pulled over and stopped, he could see a policeman getting out of his car. Right away the man started thinking of excuses to give, as this was not the first time, he had been in similar situations many times before.
As the policeman came to him, he said, “Hi, officer, I guess you caught me a little bit over the limit. I was in a rush to get home, to be with my wife and kids, you know my younger son wasn’t feeling too well, when I left home this morning.”
The policeman said, “Well, I guess so,” and started scribbling(速寫(xiě)) in his notebook. As minutes went by, he could see from the side view mirror, the policeman was still scribbling. The man was wondering why he hadn’t asked for his driver’s license so far.  A few moments later, the policeman came to his window and handed him a folded paper, and returned back to his car without saying a single word. The man started to wonder, how much this ticket is going to be as he began to unfold the paper. He was surprised it was not a ticket as he began to read:
“I had a daughter who was killed by a speeding car at the age of six, by a speeding driver like you. He got a fine (懲罰), a few months in prison, and was free, free to hug his two other daughters. I only had one, and now I have to wait until I get to heaven before I can hug her again. I have tried to forgive that man a thousand times, and I thought I had. Maybe I really did forgive him, but I have to do it again, even right now. So pray(為……祈禱) for me, and be careful when you drive again, my son is all I have left.”
The man was completely dumbfounded(目瞪口呆的) and could not move for the next few minutes. When finally he did, he drove slowly, even a few miles under the speed limit, praying for forgiveness.
52. Why did the policeman stop the man?
A. Because the man drove after drinking.
B. Because the man drove at a speed of 40 miles an hour.
C. Because the man drove over the speed limit
D. Because the man drove in a 40-mile-zone.
53. Which statement is TRUE according to the article?
A. It was the first time that the man had driven over the limit a little bit.
B. He was in a rush to get home because his son was not feeling well.
C. This story happened in the morning.
D. The policeman didn’t believe the excuse the man gave.
54. From what the policeman said in Paragraph 4 we know that ______.
A. he wanted to go to heaven to hug his daughter
B. he recognized the man who had driven the speeding car who killed his daughter
C. the man who had killed the policeman’s daughter was free to do anything in prison
D. the man who had killed the policeman’s daughter hugged his own daughters in prison
55. Why did the man at last drive slowly?
A. Because he was afraid to be fined again.
B. Because he heard his son was feeling well.
C. Because he was driving in a 40-mile-zone.
D. Because he got a good lesson from what the policeman had written.
