When your children become teenagers, it’s time to start considering an after-school job.
1., so why shouldn’t our children? When your child has a job, he/she is responsible for getting to work on time and doing his/her job correctly. An after-school job is a good way to teach your teenager about responsibility.
By allowing your teenagers to have an after-school job you allow them to learn about money management. 2., they will have to manage how much money they can spend. They will realize that they can’t spend every dollar they make if they want to reach their goal.
You are probably saying, “Teens will get into trouble whether they have a job or not.”
3.. Depending on the distance from work to home, you could allow your children some extra time to get home after work. This will ensure that they don’t feel rushed but can still get home on time.
It’s a good idea to show your teenagers that hard work is what it takes to finish everything in their lives. 4.. What will they expect when they are out on their own if they have never had to work hard for what they want?
5.. All teenagers, no matter what their parents’ financial situation is, should have a job. They will need the experience before they do get out in the real world.
A. If they are saving up for their first car
B. When they refuse to have an after-school job
C. It is a good idea for all teenagers to have an after-school job
D. Most of adults in the U.S. had a job during their teenage years
E. They can’t learn the meaning of hard work if everything is handed to them
F. Having an after-school job will help your teenagers know their direction
G. But it is less likely that your children will get into trouble if they are working five evenings a week.
In early autumn I applied for admission to college. I wanted to go nowhere but to Cornell University, but my mother fought strongly against it. When she saw me studying a photograph of my father on the sports ground of Cornell, she tore it up.
“You can’t say it’s not a great university, just because Papa went there.”
“That’s not it at all. And it is a top university.” She was still holding the pieces in her hand. “But we can’t afford to send you to college.”
“I wouldn’t dream of asking you for money. Do you want me to get a job to help support you and Papa? Things aren’t that bad, are they?”
“No,” she said. “I don’t expect you to help support us.”
Father borrowed money form his rich cousins to start a small jewellery shop, His chief customers were his old college friends. To get new customers, my mother had to help. She picked up a long-forgotten membership in the local league of women, so that she could get to know more people. Whether those people would turn into customers was another question. I knew that my Parents had to wait for quite a long time before their small investment (投资) could show returns. What’s more, they had not wanted enough to be rich and successful ；Otherwise they could not possibly have managed their lives so badly.
I was torn between the desire to help them and change their lives, and the determination not to repeat their mistakes. I had a strong belief in my power to go what I wanted. After months of hard study I won a full college scholarship（奖学金）.My father could hardly contain his pride in me, and my mother eventually gave in before my success.

Grandma, almost ninety years old, sat weakly on the park bench. She didn’t move. She just sat with her head down staring(凝视)at her hands. When I sat down beside her, she didn’t even notice me. I wondered if she was OK. So I asked her if she was OK. She raised her head, looked at me and said with a smile,” Yes, I’m fine .Thank you for asking me.”“I didn’t mean to disturb you, Grandma, but you were just sitting here staring at your hands and I wanted to make sure you were OK,”I expained to her.
“Have you ever looked at your hands?” She asked “I mean really looking at your hands.” I slowly opened my hands and stared down at them. And then I turned them over. No, I guess I had never really looked at my hands as I tried to figure out the point my grandma was making. Grandma smiled and told me the following story, “My hands put food in my mouth and clothes on my back. They tied my shoes and pulled on my boots. They held my husband and wiped my tears when he went off to war. They were uneasy when I tried to hold my newborn son. Decorated with my wedding band, they showed the world that I was married and loved someone special. They wrote my letters to him and shook when I buried my parents. They held my children and grandchildren and comforted my neighbors. They covered my face ,combed(梳) my hair and washed the rest of my body. These hands are the mark of where I’ve been and the ruggedness (崎岖)of life.”
I never look at my hands the same again. When my hands are hurt or when I touch the faces of my children and my husband, I think of my grandma. I know I can also create a bright future using my hands.
