二、阅读理解
When l2-year-old Helen received a lot of money on her birthday，she knew exactly what she wanted to buy：a pair of LuluLemon trousers that her mom wouldn’t buy because they were too expensive．
“We went to the store together，”Helen’s mom，Kate remembers，“but she gave up．When it was her own money，she felt they were too expensive，after all．’’
That story well explains why kids should have some money of their own not for lunch or movies．But for the things that they dream of．Because they don’t really understand what it means to pay$100 for a pair of trousers untilit’s their$100．
“Kids get excited about receiving money because it gives them the chance to decide what to buy。”says Lana，a manager of the Yonge and Eglinton CIBC in Toronto．“Kids are more interested in money，which means there is a need for parents to teach them．’’
If kids are given some money a week or a month it will do them good，because they will learn how to use money．But Lana has other suggestions：
Help them plan．“If there’s a big-ticket item your child wants，”says Lana，“help him plan how long it will take him to save enough money for that，and how much he should save each week．’’
Help them earn．Tell kids the ways they can make their money，for instance，they can help do the housework． ·

三、任务型阅读(2011·义乌)
请你阅读下面一篇短文，完成信息记录表。
A different way of learning is widely used in our English study．
Before class，we make study plans first．Then we look up the new words，listen to the recording and read the text．When we meet problems we can’t solve by ourselves，we always write them down in our notebooks．
In class，we sit in groups to discuss the problems freely．The teacher always offers help when we need．After discussion，it’s time for us to give a report to the class．We also make conversations in pairs and practice a lot．It’s really good for our listening and speaking．
After class，we have less homework now so we can go to the library to read English books，magazines and newspapers．We can also surf the Internet for useful information．
In flword，we enjoy the new way we’re studying．

五、One possible version：
Recently，our school has done a survey of students’English reading situation，but the results are not pleasing．On the one hand，students aren’t very interested in reading．And they can find little time to read because they have too much homework．
On the other hand，they can’t read in right ways．Besides，there are not enough suitable materials for them to read．
In my opinion，we are supposed to spend more time in reading．We need to practice reading every day．As for teachers，I hope，they can give us less homework．What’s more，they had better teach us how to read and provide more suitable materials
for us．
