    Are you good with money? Do you get pocket money from your parents or do you work to make money? Read on to find out about British teenagers and their money!

    Pocket money

    Most teenagers in Britain receive pocket money from their parents. They might have to do some housework to get pocket money, including cleaning, cooking, washing dishes and so on.

    Part-time work

    A part-time job is a choice for teenagers who don't have pocket money or who want to get extra money. About 15% teenagers have a job. Only children over the age of 13 can work. Popular part-time jobs for teens include babysitting, delivering (递送) newspapers, restaurant work and shop work. Children in Britain can work two hours a day at the most on a school day but not during school hours. During weekends and school holidays, they can work longer hours.

    Bank accounts (账户)

    Some children and teenagers have a bank account. There is no age limit at which you can open a bank account, but a bank manager can decide whether to open an account for a child or a young person. Parents can put pocket money directly into their child's bank account. Most banks have a prepaid bank card designed for young people.

    Mobile apps

    Many companies have made mobile apps for children, including GoHenry, Osper and Gimi. Parents can add money to their children's accounts and check to see how the money is spent. Children can choose to save their money or spend it using a card. The apps suggest that kids from 8 to 13 can use the cards.

    So, many teenagers are getting experience working part-time, dealing with banks and deciding whether to save or spend their money. These are all steps towards becoming a financially independent (经济独立的) person and making and looking after your own money.

Subject:"Museums of the World" Travel Plan

"Museums of the World" Travel Plan

Here's the travel plan for some unusual museums on our "Museums of the World" tour. 

I'll send you the full journey next week.

The Museum of Bad Art (MOBA) (Boston, USA) shows what it is called as "art too bad to be ignored(忽略)". The museum hopes to bring the worst of art to the people around the world.

We'll see some really ugly paintings.

The Hair Museum (Avanos,Turkey) is in a cave in Cappadocia, in Central Anatolia. It contains 16,000 samples of people's hair. You'll be offered a chance to add your own hair to the collection.

The Washington Banana Museum (Auburn, Washington, USA)collects more than 17, 000 objects. We'll learn all sorts of interesting things, such as the fact that bananas were introduced to the USA in 1878 in the same exhibition as Alexander Graham Bell's telephone, the banana is now the best selling fruit in the USA.

The Science Museum (London, the UK)is interesting for people of all ages. It's free to enter and open from 10 a.m.to 6 p.m.You can talk and even operate machines there. You can do a lot of physics experiments in the Launchpad. You can also learn about what machines were like in the past on the fourth and fifth floors. 

请阅读下面短文,根据所提供的信息,回答5个问题, 要求所写答案语法正确、语义完整切题。

Children in the United States think that the long summer vacation can be a great time to learn or to do something new. The long summer vacation is always from the beginning of June to the end of August. That means young children can spend more time relaxing. Some like to do some reading or drawing at home. Some spend time outdoor activities, hanging out(闲逛) with friends, playing sports or just enjoying nature.

It is also a great time for families to travel to see interesting places for a few days or weeks. Families sometimes go to big cities to see famous buildings or places, but usually they like to find quiet places such as beaches or mountain areas.

It is also fun to go to a camp. During the summer vacation, there are many camps for school children, such as horse- riding camps, computer camps, science camps and music camps. Most children enjoy joining different camps every summer. They can make new friends and have a lot of fun.

There are also some kids spending their time in doing voluntary work— work for free. Kids will clean or paint schools, sing for the old people or read to children. Parents would like their children to do voluntary work because most of them think it is a good way for children to show their kindness.
