    All students would agree that weekend homework should be abolished(取消). Five days of school a week is 4 for them. They have a lot of interests. With homework to do on Saturday and Sunday, when can they find 5 to help their parents do the housework, go and see a football or basketball game or a good film, join in family recreation , or just have a(n) 6 at home ? Because of these other activities, the homework isn't done until 7 evening. So their weekend homework is usually done in such a hurry that , on Monday, teachers are s8 because students know nothing about the 9. If there isn't any weekend homework for the students to do, they will be happy to go to school on Monday 10 having a good rest. And they will do better at school.

Have you seen any scarecrows (稻草人)? In the countryside of our country, some villagers like to set up some scarecrows in the fields in order to prevent birds from harming their crops. They think that this can play a role in driving away birds. In fact, not only farmers love to use scarecrows, but also some airports have installed scarecrows in such a developed technology today, which plays a very good role in driving away birds. Some people will say that birds are not fools, and they will come back to eat after a long time. So do the birds really feel scared? Can scarecrows really play a role in driving away birds? Not very — unless you're willing to put some extra(额外)effort into them.

While traditional scarecrows who couldn't move do work against "pest birds" (eg. crows and blackbirds), the effect is almost always temporary (暂时的). Over time, the birds get used to scarecrows who couldn't move and reuse their destructive (破坏性的)habits.

However, a few tricks can up your scarecrow's game. Researchers have learned that those with realistic facial features(特征)and brightly colored clothes are better at driving away birds. Also, moving a scarecrow around every few days often helps. According to several studies, flailing(大幅波动) scarecrows get the very best results.

Parents and children often face the challenges of money. Common topics include setting pocket money, learning to save, and deciding to buy expensive things. The goal of most parents is to teach their kids how to deal with money wisely.The goal of most kids is getting money to spend.How can families achieve these goals?

The Tidier family in Denver found the best way to teach about money was to let their kids make some money. Their son, Ryan, 17, has been watering in the garden since he was 8. He owned his own tools with the help of his parents. Now he has saved $7,800.Besides, he bought a bike and a wonderful sound system. And he is going to buy a car next year.

Money skills are an important part of becoming a successful adult. David Brady manages a company towards children and young adults."They shouldn't be always thinking of spending money," Brady warns. Instead, they should understand basic rules for making money, saving money, and managing money.

That knowledge is greatly needed. Over the past ten years, most Americans aged 18 to 24borrowed nearly $3,000 on credit card( 信用卡). Among high school seniors, four out of five have never taken a class about money.

Giselle Lopez, of New York City, learned the hard way. So far, she has owed(欠) $2,000 on her first credit card. Her parents refused to pay,so Giselle got a job. Then she paid the money off slowly by herself. "Now every time I use money, I know that it comes from my own pocket," Giselle says. "That gives me a sense of responsibility for my actions." Different kids will have different style s when it comes to money. Teaching them how to use money doesn't have to mean setting strict rules. When children like Ryan and Giselle have their own money to consider, they can learn to set those rules themselves.
