If you live in the United States,you can’t have a full-time job until you are 16 years old.At 14 or 15,you can have part-time jobs after school or on weekends,and during summer vacation you can work 40 hours each week.Does all that mean that if you are younger than 14,you can’t earn your own money?Of course not!Kids who are between 10 and 13,can earn money by doing lots of things.
Valarie,11,told us that she made money by cleaning up other people’s yards.Lena,13,made money by knitting dog sweaters and selling them to her neighbors.Reisa,12,started taking art classes and she also showed her work to people.Many people have asked her to draw pictures for them and they paid her for them.Jasmine,13,wrote articles for different magazines!
Earning is learning.By working to earn your own money,you can learn some skills.They can help you succeed in the future.These skills can include things like getting along with others,using technology and using your time.Some people think that asking for money is a lot easier than earning it.However,if you make your own money,you don’t have to depend on someone else.The five dollars that you earn will probably make you feel a lot happier than the twenty dollars you ask for.

Summary
1. When Sarah was a teenager, she used to fight over almost everything with her family.

Language points
他们正在为谁该打扫卫生而相互争吵。
They are fighting with each other over/about who should do the cleaning.
Language points

意为“为反对……而斗争”，后接表示人和国家的名词时，表示“同……作战”
“为（事业、自由、真理、权利等）而斗争”，其后多接抽象名词
“和……斗争/打斗”，后接表示人或国家的名词；也可接表示疾病等的名词
fight against
fight for
fight with
2. When Sarah was a teenager, she used to fight over almost everything with her family.
used to 过去常常

她过去经常唱这首歌，但是现在不唱了。

3. Ever since then, she has been a fan of American country music.
ever since then “从那时以来”，与现在完成时连用，动词必须是延续性动词。

从那时以来我就住在这儿。
4. …, but not about belonging to a group.
belong v. 属于；归于
不可直接接宾语，常和介词to连用，指(主权方面的)“属于”，也指“是(社团、家族、社会阶层的)一员”。
each other 和one another 同义，并无质上的区别, 一般情况下两者通用，只是one another所指的“互相；彼此”较each other更加笼统。试比较：
We both often help each other at school.
在学校我们两人经常互相帮助。
Teachers would encourage their students to help one another / each other in class.
课堂上老师们会鼓励学生之间互相帮助。

请提醒我明天给我母亲写信。
6. Sarah hasn’t been to Nashville yet, but it is her dream to go there one day.
It is one’s dream to + do sth. “做某事是某人的梦想”， it是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式to go there one day
