Learning to save money when you’re young is an important lesson.All good lessons and habits begin early,and saving is a skill that everyone needs.Many people—adults included—do not have a good sense of saving for the long run.I have been lucky to learn this lesson early because I have had a grasscutting business since I was 10 years old.Of the money I make I spend about 10 percent and save the other 90.
Making_sure_you_save_and_don’t_spend_too_much_is_a_good_way_to_build_up_wealth.I have put my earnings in a bank.Many teens I know spend all the money they earn so it never has a chance to grow.Young people should realize that their teenage years are a great time to begin saving.
At high school many parents pay for almost everything,so your expenses can be small.If you have a job,you should have fun with some of the money.But you should also save some so that it will grow.Then you can begin planning for your future.When you spend money,you not only lose that money,but also lose the interest you could have earned by saving it.
After high school,college is expensive and then“real” life begins,with expenses such as food and rent.If you can hold onto a good percentage of the money you earn as a teen,going to college and buying a house will be much easier.________ ,the more time the money has to grow.If you are in your thirties without any savings,you will always have to struggle.The earlier you begin saving,the easier it is to create a nest egg.
Later in life it can be hard to start saving because general costs of living are more expensive and you may only have enough to pay your bills.If you want to buy a house and have a family,you need money to start with,which comes from saving.
Many say money cannot make you happy,and this is true.But money can help you to lead a secure life.
Saving early will mean you will have to work for fewer years when you are older.It will also allow you to spend time doing the things that you want to do.
In addition to this,it will mean you can live the way you want to without worrying.

【題目】Anger and other strong emotions (情感) can probably cause deadly heart beats in certain weak people,the US researchers said on Monday.
Earlier studies have shown that earthquake,war or even the loss of a World Cup Soccer game can increase chances of death from sudden cardiac arrest,in which the heart stops passing blood.
“It’s certainly been shown in all different ways that when you put people under pressure,sudden death will increase,” said Dr.Rachel Lampert of Yale University in New Haven,Connecticut.
“Our study starts to look at how this really has an effect on the electrical system of the heart,” Lampert said.
She and her assistants studied 62 patients with heart disease and ICDs that can discover dangerous heart beats and send an electrical shock to bring a normal heart beat back.
Patients in the study took part in an exercise in which they told a recent angry period while Lampert’s team did a test called TWave Alternant that measures electrical instability(不穩(wěn)定性) in the heart.
Lampert said the team on purpose asked questions to get people to experience the angry period again.“We found in the lab that yes,anger did increase this electrical instability in these patients,” she said.
Next,they followed patients for three years to see which patients later had a cardiac arrest and needed a shock from their ICDs.“The people who had the highest anger were 10 times more likely than everyone else to have cardiac arrest,” she said.
Lampert said the study suggests that anger can be deadly,at least for people who are already weak /span>to this type of electrical disorder in the heart.
【1】From the passage we know cardiac arrest refers to ________.
A.someone who will be caught if he does something wrong
B.some place where you can show all your feelings
C.some disease that can kill people instantly
D.something used by patients in hospital
【2】The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refers to “________”.
A.feelings of anger and pressure
B.games
C.feelings of happiness
D.hunger
【3】What did Lampert use to measure electrical instability of patients’ heart?
A.ICD and TWave Alternant test.
B.ICD and Cardic arrest.
C.Cardiac arrest.
D.The passage doesn’t tell us.
【4】The passage is mainly about ________.
A.new findings for heart disease
B.that anger really can kill a person
C.a(chǎn) new test of measuring heart blood
D.a(chǎn) study showing danger of heart beats
