Eat your vegetables. Wash your hands. Always say "please" and "thank you". We are full of advice for our children.1.As a result, our children may grow up with clean hands and good manners, but without any idea how to manage their money.

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 it at 8% and add $100 every month, by the time she's 65, she would have $980,983!

Be careful of credit. Credit cards can help you buy necessary things and build a credit history, but they must be used responsibly. 2. 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.

3.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 a week, he will be able to buy it for himself in only ten weeks.

Explain your values. 4.When your child demands that you buy something, explain way you really don't went to buy it. You might say, "I'd rather save that money for your education" 5.

A. Every time you spend or don't spend money, you have a chance to share your values.

B. Provide encouragement.

C. That means paying off your debt in time.

D. Teach patience.

E. Values and money interact.

F. But when it comes to money, we often have little to say.

G. Tell your children the importance of saving.

The United States has always been a country of many cultures. Before Europeans came to North America, many groups of Native Americans lived here. Different Native American groups had different cultures. The first Europeans in the United States were from England and Holland, but immigrants came from all European countries. Many people also immigrated from Asia and Africa. Sadly, many Africans were brought to the United States as slaves. Many immigrants come from Latin America too. Today, the United States has people from more cultures than ever.

In the 19th century, people spoke of the United States as a “melting pot.” People thought that all immigrates should forget their native cultures and languages and become English-speaking Americans. They felt that people should assimilate-join American culture. However, not everyone wanted to assimilate completely. Many people tried to keep parts of their cultures, such as foods, customs, and languages. However, their children often forgot their parents’ or grandparents’ language. But most Americans, even those whose families have been here a long time, can tell the countries their relatives came from. And of course, new immigrants take great pride in their curare and language.

For all of these reasons, melting pot is no longer a good way to describe the United States. Instead, people now call the United States a “salad bowl.” They say salad bowl because in a salad, you can still see all of the individual parts (lettuce, tomato, and so on), but all the different parts mixed together and begin to take on the flavor of one another.

1.Who are not mentioned as immigrants to America?

A. Europeans B. Asians

C. Australians D. Latin Americans

2.The underlined word “assimilate” in paragraph 2 means .

A. delight B. accept

C. challenge D. reject

3.Why is a “salad bowl” a better way to call the United States instead of a “melting pot”?

A. Immigrants love to eat salads instead of hot pot

B. Immigrants take pride in their culture and language

C. Immigrants join American culture only partially

D. Immigrants remain independent completely

4.What would be the best title for the passage?

A. America and Immigrants

B. Different Groups, Different Cultures

C. America – A Salad Bowl

D. America – A Great Country

11.The past fifty years or so have seen the gradual disappearing of animals from this earth,fishes from the sea,trees and plants from the land.
Many factors result in this unpleasant phenomenon.Among them,hunting is the main factor that endangers wild life.Some people kill wild life for sport.They take pleasure in collecting heads and hides.Yet others specialize in commercial hunting like killing whales.
Apart from this,the rapidly growing human population threatens wild life on land,too.Towns expand and roads have to be built,so forests are burnt and trees are chopped down.It seems that man needs every inch of land within his reach,so he moves on to the natural habitat of wild life.Tigers,lions and leopards slowly die off without the food and shelter that the forests provide.
In addition,rapid urbanization means industrial expansion.Very often,poisonous chemicals,industrial wastes and oil are dumped into the rivers and seas.Fish and birds are threatened.
Man depends greatly on animals for survival.He needs their flesh,hides and furs.Thus,man cannot do without wild life; or he himself would become extinct.The public should be made aware that it would be better to shoot the animals with a camera than with a gun.In this way,they can preserve and help wild life to continue living rather than to remove all signs of it.
Man must learn to farm the sea as he does the land.He should control the amount and the frequency of his catch.He should allow fish to breed and multiply before netting them.Man also needs to build forest reserves,and to pass laws prohibiting the killing of animals,especially those that are already rare.To keep the present animal kingdom,the least that man can do is to clean the seas and rivers and to prevent pollution.
The cycle of nature is such that it forms a vicious circle.The pesticides(殺蟲劑) that we spray on crops can kill the birds and animals that feed on them.When man eats these poisoned animals,he himself can die.We must therefore test the chemicals to be used before they are sprayed or it might mean the death of man!

13.The author's purpose in writing the passage is toD.
A.explain how important wild life is to human beings.
B.call people's attention to serious problem of pollution.
C.explain relationship between wild life and human being
D.call people's attention to the protection of wild life
14.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?C
A.The growing human population threatens wild life because people take land from animals
B.Some people devote themselves to killing animals for money.
C.People can preserve and help wild life to continue living by shooting the animals with a camera.
D.Fishes are threatened by poisonous chemicals,industrial wastes and oil.
15.The last paragraph is mainly aboutA.
A.the importance of wild life to human beings
B.how the circle of nature is formed
C.how animals are gradually disappearing form the earth
D.how to solve the problem of pollution.
