In 2009 a group of parents in Lymington started sharing worries about their children's money-management skills. Pocket money was now stored in a building society rather than a piggy bank (储蓄罐); household shopping was done online; the children rarely saw their parents handling cash. They were spending online, too. Money had become intangible. How, then, were children to learn its value?

The answer they came up with was GoHenry, an app now available in America as well as Britain. It is designed to help young people learn good spending habits through real-world money activities. Parents sign up with their own bank accounts and pay a monthly fee of £2.99 or $3.99 for each child aged six or over. Adults and children download separate versions. Parents can schedule pocket money and set chores. When those are marked as done, the child is paid the agreed amount. Parents can see what the child has bought and where. And they can choose where the card can be used: in shops, online or at ATMs.

Children get cards printed with their name. They can put money in savings pots, view their spending and balances, and set savings targets. "They could decide to save ten dollars for a friend's birthday in four weeks' time, or set a goal at 12 to have $2,000 to buy a car at age 18," says Dean Brauer, one of GoHenry's founders. "The app tells them how much to save each week to meet their goal."

A big benefit of such apps is that they inspire family conversations about money. According to the latest research, more than half of British parents find the subject hard to discuss with their children. And yet most agree that children's attitudes to money are formed in their early years.

Some GoHenry customers are wealthy parents who worry that their children will grow up with little knowledge of money. Others have slim incomes but regard the app as a preparation for their child's future. Some say that they have been in debt and want their children to avoid that mistake when they grow up; others that the app is cost-effective because their children learn to plan spending. Even though young people no longer touch and hold money, they can still be taught to handle it well.

In recent years, science fiction (科幻小说) has become more and more popular in China, especially after the sci-fi writer Liu Cixin won the Hugo Award in 2015.  {#blank#}1{#/blank#} It has been popular all over the world. 

In an interview, Liu said that science fiction would open our minds to everything in the future. " {#blank#}2{#/blank#} And it opens up a new world to them, " he added. 

According to Liu, young readers should read different books in order to find out what they are truly interested in. Liu once said, "I've read a lot of works of Leo Tolstoy and Arthur Charles Clarke. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} "

The Chinese sci-fi film The Wandering Earth was a real hit in 2019. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Liu said the success mainly came from the hard work of the movie's team. "As the first Chinese sci-fi movie, I must say that it's very exciting and encouraging, " he said. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} He believed that there would be different kinds of Chinese sci-fi movies in the future.

Pan Yuzhen,77, comes from Taijiang County, Guizhou Province. She is an inheritor(继承人) of Miao embroidery(刺绣).

"The girls in my hometown can embroider at an early age. When I was five years old, I learned embroidery from my mother and sister. Miao embroidery skills are not easy to learn, but I have learned all embroidery methods," Pan said. At first, Pan embroidered for her own use, but as she grew older and married, her skills were put to use for her family, creating beautiful embroidered clothes.

 In 1999, Zhang went to Beijing to join her mother. At that time, Pan had a store in a market. Here, she met a lot of foreign friends who were attracted by her embroidery skills and encouraged her to expand her business abroad." They advised me to go to foreign countries and sell cultural and creative products. Then I went to the US to do business connected with Miao embroidery," Pan said.

 In 2016, Pan's career took a huge leap forward as she worked with a famous clothing brand(品牌) in China. With the help of the brand, Pan went to the UK to take part in different fashion shows. Now Pan is well— known. Pan hopes more young people can inherit Miao embroidery skills.

David, a 15-year-old boy from England, lives in Shanghai with his parents now. He is very healthy. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}, he had some bad habits in the past. He liked to stay up late and he usually played computer games on the {#blank#}2{#/blank#} at night. In the morning, he got up late and didn't eat breakfast. For lunch and dinner, he ate junk food. He liked eating candies very much and he {#blank#}3{#/blank#} ate them every day. And he hardly ever exercised. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} his parents asked him to do sports, he never listened.

Last year, David often felt tired. His parents were worried about his {#blank#}5{#/blank#}, so they took him to the hospital. The doctor told David that he was in poor health (健康欠佳). Then David decided to do something. "I'll try to spend {#blank#}6{#/blank#} time on the computer," he said. "I'll try to eat healthy food. And I'll get up early and exercise at least {#blank#}7{#/blank#} a week. Besides, I will do the housework with my parents {#blank#}8{#/blank#}."

Museums are active centers of learning. In a science museum, people can learn about nature and technology as well as physics and chemistry. Visiting museums is a good choice to spend a holiday for people of all ages. But there're some rules when visiting museums. Take an art museum, for example.

Keep quiet. You can talk, but keep the voice down and be polite to those around you. You should turn off your phone or put it on silent. Sounds from your phone may disturb (打扰) others. If a call must be made, you should go outside to make it. 

Ask before taking photos. Some museums welcome visitors to photograph or videotape works of art. However, please be careful with the sign "no photography" which means taking photos is not allowed for that work or exhibition. If you take photos without permission, you will be in trouble. Maybe you will be punished. 

Do not touch works of art! Your touch may not seem like much, but even the slightest (最轻的) touch can damage the surface of a painting, discolor stone, and even rust metal. Keep a safe distance between you and each work of art. This helps to avoid accidental touching.

Never bring food or drinks into the museum. It's no good eating or drinking there. The art in the museum will provide plenty of food for thought as well as a dinner for the eyes!

Running and pushing are not allowed in the museum. Proper museum behavior is necessary to avoid accidentally hitting or damaging works of art.

Remember: ____. If you obey them, you will surely enjoy yourself in the museum.
