What do you do to get pocket money from your parents?In western countries, many children do housework to get pocket money. They usually start to do this at the age of 10.
Some students have to do homework and study for tests. They don't have a lot office time in the weekend. They often do housework on Sunday. Young children only dohousework. So they don't get much money. But that's all right. Many of them only want to buy sweets. And sweets are cheap!They wash up after dinner andthe family cat or dog.
When they get older, children want to buy more and more things. They want things that are dearer than sweets. Then they have to work. They often wash the car, cut the grass, walk the dogs or cook meals. Some jobs are good for children to learn new things. they can learn how to cook. Of course, their parents help them at first.
Will it matter if you don't take your breakfast?A short time ago, some scientists gave some people a test in the United States. They chose people of different ages, from 12to 83. These scientists gave them all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes no breakfast. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfast.
The results(结果)show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than the person who has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he or she will learn faster and listen more carefully.
The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain(增加)weight instead of losing it.
You will lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.

When I was young, I didn't like to clean my teeth. I often find many excuses(借口)to go to bed wbrushing my teeth.
One day, I read a story about the tooth fairy(牙仙). It is said that if a child puts a fallen(落下来的)tooth under the pillow(枕头), the tooth fairy will take it away and lmoney when the child falls asleep at night. I asked my mum, "Is there really a tooth fairy, Mum?" "Maybe there is, "my mum smiled and answered. "But your teeth are terrible. The tooth fairy won't like them. "
A few days later, one of my teeth fell out. Just like my mother said, it was very terrible. It was yellow with a black hin it. I rushed into the bathroom to brush it and use a toothpick to pick it carefully. After that, I put it under my pillow.
The next day, I woke up early and checked my pillow g. The terrible tooth was m!One yuan with a piece of paper was under my pillow!It said:" You should protect your teeth more carefully. If you give me a terrible tooth like that a, I won't like it. "

I always work at night, because there is too much traffic during the day. I live twenty miles outside London and I go to work at 5:30 in the afternoon.

And then the policeman came. They thought I was a thief. Luckily, the woman came downstairs. She had gone to sleep and forgotten about me and the puppy!
