VI. 阅读理解（AD每小题1分，BCE每小题2分，共40分）

(A)

“Red envelope’’fever（红包热） has swept the country these years. Money can be sent through electronic（电子的）payments(支付). Children can get more money than before. But everyone needs to understand something about money: where it comes from, how to save it and how to spend it better. Too many parents don’t spend time in teaching their children about money, and as a result, many of those children don’t know how to deal with(处理)  money when they grow up.

    When should parents begin teaching their children about money? Experts（专家） agree that it’s never too early. The more children learn about money, the more wisely(明智地)  they will be able to deal with money as they grow older. At first, parents can teach kids how to count money. Next, parents can teach kids how to save money. For example, a kid wants a new bicycle. Parents can teach them to save part of their lucky money for that bike, while kids still keep some money for ice cream and movies. In this way, they will begin to understand the meaning of saving.

    Also it’s never too early to teach children different ways to make money besides snatching(抢) red envelops. For example, they can wash cars, clean gardens, look after babies and so on. Sit down with children and talk with them about some ways they could make money. You’ll be surprised and glad at the effort they will begin making.

Teach children about money when they’re young and their future will be brighter.

Yesterday my grandfather told me about his early days. When he left school at the age of 20, he found a job in a post office. He worked hard in the post office. Soon he had more money than his friends because of his hard work. It seemed that his future would be bright.
    When he was 25 years old, however, he began to dislike his job. He wanted a more exciting one, so he left the post office. Two months later he found a new job in a big company(公司) . Workers in this company usually traveled a lot. At first he really enjoyed traveling. But after a year, he began to hate it. He had to move around and he was always in a car or on a train. The worst thing was that he couldn’t make any new friends. Even so, his boss(老板)  was not satisfied （满意的）with him. Two years later , he left the company.
     He was poor at that time so he sold his house. He had to do a part-time job in a book shop. He was surprised to find that he loved it! He made new friends every day and he enjoyed reading books. Three years later, he married(娶)  the shop owner's daughter. Soon they had their first child. In the next ten years, they had another three children and four more book shops! He became very rich indeed.
    “Life is wonderful,” he told me. “The most important thing is that you should always try your best. Never give up!”
