七选五训练
(2015·山东济南市5月针对性训练)
For some people,the w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )armest memories from childhood come from being read a great story.__1__ It develops children's language skills and increases their ability to succeed in school and,later,work.
A new report ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )by the American Academy of Pediatrics says reading aloud is so important that parents should start as soon as their children are born and continue to read aloud even after their children can read by themselves.They say parents should also point to and talk about pictures in books for infants(婴幼儿).__2__
The company Scholastic ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) is a major U.S.publisher of children's books.Every two years,Scholastic publishes a report on American reading attitudes and habits.The 2015 report says only 31 percent of children in the U.S.read a book for fun almost every day.
__3__ One is simp ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ly to have books in the home.Elizabeth Lyttleton,the mother of three,is lucky.Her mother once wrote and illustrated children's books,so the family always have plenty to read.She says all her children learn from books but in different ways.__4__ Researchers from the Scholastic company found that 80%of children surveyed of all ages say they love being read to.And children ages 6 to 11 whose parents do not read to them anymore say they miss it.
__5__ Of all the six t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o 17 year olds in the Scholastic study,more than 90%said their favorite books are the ones they chose for themselves.
A.The Scholastic repor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t also suggests permitting children to choose their own books.
B.Scholastic also ide ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ntifies some ways to develop a love of reading in a child.
C.A book does not have to be serious to be good for kids.
D.For young children,parents should ask questions about the book.
E.Do children still read for fun
F.Another way to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) develop a reading habit in children is to read to them.
G.But reading to children does more than create warm memories.
文章大意:作者主要介绍父母们给孩子读书的好处,帮助孩子养成良好的读书习惯,喜欢读书,让孩子受益一生。
1.G 根据空前后与G中的关键词 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )warm memories,reading,being read,children,childhood等可知答案。 But是关键提示词,首句意思是:对于很多人来说,童年最温暖的回忆(the warmest memory)就是有人给读故事(being read a great story)。选项G的“warm memories”对应空格前的“the warmest memory”;“reading to children”对应空格前的“being read a great story”和空格后的“it”。并且,选项G中的“more than”对应空格后的“It develops children's language skills(开发孩子的语言能力)and increases their ability to succeed in school, and later, work(并且增强孩子的学习能力和日后的职场能力)”。说明给孩子读故事的好处,不只是空格前的一句,还有空格后的两大好处,故选G。
2.D 根据空前后与D中的关键词: ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )parents,questions,children,book,questions等。根据第二段的“start as soon as their children are born”和“infants(婴儿)”等词可以看出。本段讲的是要尽早开始培养阅读兴趣。D选项提到了“young children(幼儿)”一词,可以与本段的上文形成照应。而且,选项D的“ask questions”与上文的“point to”和“talk about”都是给幼儿读书时可以用到的方法,是并列关系。可知答案选D。
3.B 根据空前后与B中的关键词ways ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ),love for reading等判断。 空格后的“One”是重点提示词。根据对本段结构的分析,后文有方法之一“One”,所以就会有方法之二。而3题位于本段开头,所以极有可能是总起本段。选项B中的“some ways”就能起到总起全段的作用。而且选项B的“develop a love of reading in a child”(开发孩子对阅读的热爱之情)在意思上也能统帅后文,都是讲的培养孩子阅读热情的方法。故答案选B。
4.F 根据空前后与F中的关 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )键词another,one,read to them,being read等。3空格后的“One”是重要提示词。3空格后“One”一句是说方法之一是“to have books in the home”(家里有书)。那么下文就应该会有方法之二。在结构上形成对应上的只有F选项,因为F选项有“Another”一词。而且,F选项的“to develop a reading habit in children”在意思上顺承前一句,且能领起下一句,照应下句的“they love being read to”。可知答案选F。
5.A 根据空前后与A中的关键词:cho ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ose,own,themselves等。空格后的一句说“their favorite books are the ones they chose for themselves”(孩子们最喜欢的书是他们自己选择的那些书),说的是自主选择对于培养阅读兴趣的重要性。选项A中的“choose their own books”正好对应空格后的“chose”。空格后的一句是对于选项A的进一步阐释。而且,选项A中的“The Scholastic report”对应上文的“Scholastic”。由此可知答案选A。

[3]“Triple filter "
[4]“That's ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )right," Socrates continued.“Before you talk to me about my friend, it might be a good idea to take a moment and filter what you're going to say. The first filter is Truth. Have you made absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true "

[9]“No, not really."
[10] “We ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ll," concluded Socrates,“ if what you want to tell me is neither true nor good nor even useful, why tell it to me at all "

Directions: R ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ead the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
For decades, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a small percentage of homeowners have been installing solar panels (嵌板) on their rooftops. Those panels collect solar energy and change it into electricity. Until recently, the panels were too expensive for average homeowners, and their designs were anything but appealing. Thanks to new advances, however, solar panels for homes are becoming cheaper and less awkward, causing more homeowners to consider installing them.
Last fall furniture ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )seller IKEA began selling solar panels in its U.K. stores. Of course, home improvement stores such as Home Depot have been selling panels for a while. But the initiative by IKEA is seen as a way to bring the Do It Yourself solar option to the masses. While shopping for inexpensive furniture, shoppers could add a box or two of solar panels to their carts. IKEA is partnering with a company that handles installation and servicing of the panels, making the switch to solar easy for customers. If all goes well, IKEA plans to begin selling the panels in other countries soon.
SolTech, a Swedish ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) tech company, offers a solar-power solution that is much more pleasing to the eye than traditional solar panels. Instead of flat panels, SolTech offers a glass tile (瓦片) solution that goes well with existing tiled roof designs. The see-through tiles have a silver-gray color to them, and their shape fits traditional tiled roof designs. SolTech currently offers the solar systems that heat the home’s air or water and one solar PV system that produces electricity.
New Energy Tec ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hnologies, Inc. is developing a solar application that won’t be installed on rooftops. Instead, the first-of-its-kind SolarWindowTM technology enables see-through windows to produce electricity in the way of showering their glass surfaces with the company’s patent-pending (专利申请中的) electricity-producing coatings. Amazingly, SolarWindowTM can produce electricity in low-light conditions and can even turn indoor light into electricity! This product holds great promise for commercial buildings since about 60 percent of a commercial building’s surface is covered with windows.
(Note: Answer the ques ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)
78. Solar panels on homeowners’ rooftops work by __________.

[1]A new study has f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ound evidence of aggressive behaVior in children who drink four or more servings of soft drinks every day.
[2]The mothers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of 3,000 five-year-olds took part in the study.They were asked to keep a record of how many servings of soft drinks their children drank over a two-month period and keep records of how they behaved.The researchers found that 43 percent of the boys and girls drank at least one daily serving of soda.Four percent of the youngsters had four or more sodas to drink every day.
[3]Children who drank ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the most soda were more than two times likely to show signs of aggression.“For the children who consumed four or more soft drinks per day,we see an association between aggressive behaviors, attention problems and withdrawn behaviors.”Shakira Suglia says.The aggressive behaviors included destroying possessions belonging to others,taking part in fights and physically attacking people.
[4]Shakira says ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the researchers identified the link after they considered the factors like the child’s age and sex.They also considered ,such as whether the boys and girls were eating sweets or given fruit drinks on a normal day.In addition,the researchers examined parenting styles and other social conditions that might be taking place in the home.
[5]It is not quite ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) clear why young children who drink a lot of soda have behavior pmblems.However,a substance oftell found in soft drinks is caffeine,which helps to make people feel energetic.Doctor Suglia suggests that caffeine could be causing the children to be more aggressive.

A great number of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) people can get injured or even killed resulting from a human stampede (踩踏).The bad thing is that a peaceful group of people can quickly turn into a crazy panicked crowd. __1__ If you are in a crowd, the most important thing is to make yourself familiar with your surroundings and mentally notice the exits. No matter where you are make sure you always know how to get out. __2__ If you are in a crowd of moving people, wet or uneven ground can be slippery or dangerous, causing you to fall.
Be aware of th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e general atmosphere of the event, as panic situations can often be expected. When in danger, a few seconds can make all the difference. If you find yourself in the middle of a moving crowd, do not fight against the pressure, do not stand still or sit down. __3__ Take advantage of any space that may open up and try to move sideways to the crowd movement where the flow is weaker.
__4__—It gives you movement and protects your chest.
If you fall, get up qu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ickly. If you fall and cannot get up, keep moving by crawling in the same direction of the crowd, or if that is not possible, then cover your head with your arms and curl (蜷缩)up. __5__ Sometimes, finding a right posture can save your life.
A.Make yourself aware of the type of ground you are standing on.
B.Do not lie on your ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )stomach or back, as this dangerously exposes your lungs.

[1]Born in 1949, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Diana Nyad took an early interest in swimming as a sport and was a Florida State High School swimming champion. Like many young athletes, she had Olympic dreams, but a serious illness kept her from competing in the Games. The disappointment didn’t stop her from going forward. Instead, she became interested in marathon swimming. A brilliant athlete, she was well—conditioned for spending long periods of time in the water. As a long—distance swimmer, she would compete against herself and the obstacles presented by distance, danger, cold, and exhaustion.
[2]For ten years ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Nyad devoted herself to becoming one of the world’s best long—distance swimmers. In 1970, she swam a ten—mile marathon in Lake Ontario, setting the women’s record for the course. In 1972 she set another record by swimming 102.5 miles from an island in the Bahamas to the coast of Florida. Then she broke a third record when swimming around Manhattan Island in 1975.
[3]Nyad attemp ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ted to swim the distance between Florida and Cuba in 1978. Though the span of water is less than 100 miles wide, it is rough and dangerous. After battling the water for two days, she had to give up for the sake of her own health and safety. Even so, she impressed the world with her courage and strong desire to succeed. For Nyad her strength of purpose was just as important as reaching Cuba. That is how she defined success. It didn’t matter that her swim came up short; she believed she had touched the other shore.

Some people are ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )happy to believe in ESP (超感官知觉) while others are firm disbelievers.
Parapsychologists ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) (灵学专家), who lend a certain seriousness to the subject, have 41 four types of ESP: One type called clairvoyance describes the act of being able to obtain knowledge of a person or event without the use of the normal senses; Another type, telepathy, is the 42 by which a person is able to read another person’s thoughts without the use of any of the normal senses; Still another type, psychogenesis, is the ability to 43 a physical object just by thinking about it; The last type, precognition, is the term applied when somebody is able to foresee 44 events.
Over the years the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re have been many ESP experiments conducted by serious scientists in serious institutions. Joseph Banks Rhine, a botanist at Duke University published a famous book in 1934 called " Extra-Sensory Perception" in which he claimed to have overwhelming(压倒的)evidence of ESP. However, other scientists have been unable to repeat his results exactly in the same way, which has resulted in the book 45 much of its original reliability.
The Granzfield ex ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )periments are considered to have been the most 46 examined ESP experiments. The experimenters had their eyes covered and ears blocked while a "sender" attempted to transmit messages. Later the experimenters would compare the messages received to the 47 messages sent out. There was a great deal of excitement and interest at the time but the research failed to produce 48 results.
Human beings are ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) 49 to the supernatural phenomena. ESP will always continue to fascinate human beings. Some of the most successful films in recent years have fuelled interest among the younger generations who are starting to ask the same questions and to look for explanations for the same phenomena as their parents and grandparents before them. Who knows One day we might just find these answers because one thing is certain, “The truth is out there!"

[ 1 ] Willia ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )m Butler Yeats, a most famous Irish writer, was born in Dublin on June 13, 1865. His childhood lacked the harmony (和睦) that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered "little of childhood but its pain". In fact, he inherited (继承) excellent taste in art from his family — both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama and poetry.
[ 2 ] Yeats had strong faith in coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at the beginning. He didn't lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.
[ 3 ] Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats's poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.
[ 4 ] He had not enjoyed a major public life since winning the Nobel Prize in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. ______________, he would probably now be valued as a minor (不重要的) poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between the ages of 50 and 75. After Yeats's Death in 1939, W. H. Auden wrote, among others, the following lines:
Earth, receive an honored guest:
William Yeats is laid to rest.
Let the Irish vessel (船) lie
Emptied of its poetry.

The research, cond ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ucted by St. George University, shows that different parents have different approaches to these problems. __3__ For example, those parents who yell at their children for their untidiness, but later clean the room for them, have fewer chances of changing their children's behavior. On the contrary, those who let teenagers experience the thrills of their actions can do better. __4__ Parents should talk to their children but at the same time they should lend an ear to what they have to say. __5__ It is only by listening to and understanding each other that problems between parents and children can be settled.
A.On the one hand, parents go mad over messy rooms.

Everyone needs a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )break, and vacations are not meant for serious study. __36__ The Spring Festival is coming up so this is the perfect time to discuss some great English language literature to take on a long train journey.
Before getting into ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the recommendations, you need to determine your English reading comprehension level. If you’re at the beginner level, there are two options: reading a children’s book or reading a book that you’ve read in Chinese translation. __37__ If you’re at the intermediate level, popular books like pop fiction, mysteries and thrillers are good options. For advanced readers, classic works of literature or modern prize winners (Nobel, Pulitzer) are good options.
__38__ When I pi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ck up a book I like, even though the first few chapters are really hard to get through, I would try to get accustomed to the language the author uses.

A. If you pick a book ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )which is so challenging, it will be too stressful.
B. The most importa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nt thing is to pick a book that you’re really interested in.

We lived in a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )very quiet neighborhood. One evening I heard a loud crash in the street. Earlier that evening my wife had asked me to go to the store to get some soft drinks. It seemed like this would be a good time to let my teenager daughter Holly practice her driving.
At dinne ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r my son talked about how much he liked my truck. I enjoyed having it, but I said, “Guy, my heart is not set on that truck. I like it but it is just metal and won’t last forever. Never set your heart on anything that won’t last.”
After he ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )aring the loud noise, the whole family ran outside. My son shouted, “Dad! Dad, Holly crashed your truck.”
My heart sank and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )my mind was flooded with conflicting thoughts. Was anyone hurt Who else was involved As I ran to the door, I heard a voice in my heart say, “Here is a chance to show Holly what you really love. She’ll never forget it.”
The accident ha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d occurred in my own driveway. Holly had crashed my truck into our other vehicle, the family van (搬运车). In her inexperience, she had confused the brakes and the gas pedal. Holly was unhurt physically, but when I reached her, she was crying and saying, “Oh, Dad, I’m sorry. I know how much you love this truck.” I held her in my arms as she cried.
Later that week a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )friend stopped by and asked what had happened to my truck. I told her the story. Her eyes moistened(湿润) and she said, “That happened to me when I was a girl. I borrowed my dad’s car and ran into a log that had fallen across the road. I ruined the car. When I got home my Dad knocked me to the ground and began to kick me.” Over 40 years later, she still felt the pain of that night. It was a deep wound on her soul.
I remember ho ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )w sad Holly was the night and how I comforted her. One day, when Holly thinks back on her life, I want her to know that I love her a thousand times more than any piece of property. I repaired the van, but the dent (凹痕) in my truck is still there today. Every day it reminds me of what really matters in my life.

Culture Shock
Culture shock ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) refers to the anxiety and feelings (of surprise, uncertainty, confusion, etc.) felt when people have to operate within a different and unknown cultural or social environment, such as a foreign country.
Generally speaking, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )we could say that there are four stages of culture shock. The first stage is called “the honeymoon”. In this stage, you are excited about living in a different place. 16
The next ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )stage is “the hostility(敌意)stage”. In this stage, you begin to notice not everything is as good as you originally thought it was. 17 Moreover, people don’t treat you like a guest anymore.
Then you co ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )me to the third stage called “recovery”. In this stage, you start to feel more positive. 18 The whole situation starts to become more favorable and you begin to learn to adapt yourself to it.
The last ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) stage of culture shock is called “adjustment”. In this stage, you have reached a point where you actually feel good. 19 The things that originally made you feel uncomfortable or strange are now things that you understand. Now you have adjusted to the new culture and you feel comfortable.
Not all individuals vi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )siting another country will experience all these four stages. 20 It also occurs within cultures as individuals move from place to place or from one setting to another (e.g., from high school to college).
A. You feel that ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) friends should help each other to deal with culture shock.
B. And you try to d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )evelop comprehension of everything you don’t understand.
C. In addition, culture shock is not limited to the overseas visitor.
D. You become tired of many things about the new culture.
E. You have learned enough to understand the new culture.
F. You begin to understand you need to travel a lot.
G. And everythin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g seems to be marvelous and everybody seems to be so nice to you.

Directions: Read ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information fromthe passage.
Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.
Food makes us feel ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )good, but some people eat when they aren’t really hungry and eat to simply feel good. This kind of eating habit is called emotional eating, which does not affect adults but also young children. It isn’t a good thing.
A child’s eating h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )abits can develop right from childhood. As we know, a baby cries out if he doesn’t get milk at the usual time of the day. However, sometimes parents immediately stick a bottle in a child’s mouth without trying to find out if the child is really hungry. In fact, children may cry for other reasons. Even as children grow up and start going to school, parents sometimes give them a chocolate bar if they become really unhappy. As the children further grow up, they may become used to having a snack whenever they’re upset or low.
Therefore, they ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )’d like to eat an emotional snack when they have the feeling of unhappiness and boredom. Even when they don’t get high grades, aren’t popular at school or made fun of by others, they will want something to eat. After having the snack, they feel a lot better.
Emotional eati ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng in young children is a thing that needs to be taken seriously. To protect your children from emotional eating, you should satisfy your child’s emotional needs in the best possible way. This includes spending time with your child every day, taking an interest in his school work, helping your child study, providing a health environment without tension at home, etc. Don’t make the child lose face by scolding him. Develop confidence in your child. Make your child eat enough once in a while. Reward him for his achievements.
All this will help yo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ur little one develop a healthy eating habit. And always remember love and care is the key to help you child out of trouble and grow up happily.

People who drink a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )little, exercise, quit smoking and eat five servings of fruit and vegetables each day live on average 14 years longer than people who adopt none of these behaviors, researchers said on Tuesday. A collection of evidence has shown that these things contribute to healthier and longer lives, but the new study actually qualified their mixed effect, the British team said.
“These results may ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) provide further support for the idea that even small differences in lifestyle may make a big difference to health, ” the researchers wrote in the journal PLOS Medicine.
Between 1993 and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )1997 the researchers questioned 20,000 healthy British men and woman about their lifestyles.They also tested every participant’s blood to measure vitamin C intake, an indicator(指标)of how much fruit and vegetables people ate.
Then they assigned t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he participants aged 45-79 a score of between 0 and 4,giving one point for each of the healthy behaviors. After allowing for age and other factors that could affect the likelihood of dying, the researchers found people with a score of 0 four times as likely to die.
The researchers, w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ho tracked deaths among the participants until 2006,also said a person with a health score of 0 had the same risk of dying as someone with score of 4 who was 14 years older.

The best amount of sleep is about seven and a half to eight hours. Spending either less than six or more than nine hours in sleeping puts your health at risk.
[2] A popular solu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tion to a lack of sleep at night is to take a “power nap” during the day, but does this work
[3] Generally speak ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing, it can be beneficial. Research shows that a nap in the middle of the day—even a brief one as Short as five or 10minutes—can clear your mind and leave you with increased energy and improved productivity.
[4] But here a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )re some things you need to know to do it correctly. To start with, every time you doze off (打瞌睡) during the day does not count as a “power nap”. The best time to take a power nap is in the mid-afternoon, when your energy level tends to decrease.
[5] But how l ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ong should a power nap be Ideally, it should be kept to between 10 and 30 minutes. Nodding off for five minutes does not really provide established sleep. If you, however, go into the deeper stage you will wake up feeling weak.
[6] However, refreshi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng as it might be, if you get adequate sleep at night, taking a power nap isn’t such a wise choice. The reason is that sleeping during the day can interfere with your body’s biorhythms. The brain gets used to going to bed and getting up at roughly the same time each day, and you don’t want to disturb this routine.
[7] One more thing to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )keep in mind is that a power nap should never be used as a replacement for a good night’s sleep. A power nap during the day is not like a tablet which will definitely work. An hour’s sleep before midnight is worth a couple of hours’ sleep after midnight.

Directions: Read th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
Many children ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance(津贴).The purpose is to let children learn from experience at an age when financial mistakes are not very costly.
The amount of mo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ney that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs 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 chil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )dren 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.Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance.The object is to show young people that a budget demands choices between spending and saving.Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs,like clothing or electronics.
Allowances give c ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hildren a chance to experience the things they can do with money.They can share it in the form of gifts or giving to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want.Or they can save and maybe even invest it.
Saving helps child ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ren understand that costly goals require sacrifice:you have to cut costs and plan for the future.Requiring children to save part of their allowance can also open the door to future saving and investing.Many banks offer services to help children and teenagers learn about personal finance.A savings account is an excellent way to learn about the power of compound interest(利息).That may not seem like a lot.But over time it adds up.
(Note: Answer the q ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )uestions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS.)
