Before Louis the Eleventh became king, he used to visiting a peasant where garden produced excellent fruit. After he takes office, the peasant brought him as a present a very large apple which had grown in his garden. The king, remembering the pleasant times that he had spent under the old man’s roof, gave him a thousand of crowns(25便士). The lord of the village, heard of this, thought that if one who gave a common apple received so large a reward, one giving a really valuable present would receive a much large reward. He, however, offered a splendid horse. The king accepted it and thinking of a big apple, said, “This cost me a lot of money; I now give to you in return for your horse.”

Every boy and every girl expects their parents to give them more pocket money. Why do their parents just give them a certain amount? __1.__
The amount of money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish differs from family to family. __2.__ Some children get weekly pocket money. Others get monthly pocket money.
First of all, children are expected to make a choice between spending and saving. Then parents should make the children understand what is expected to pay for with the money. At first, some young children may spend all of the money soon after they receive it. Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until it is the right time. __3._
In order to encourage their children to do some housework, some parents give pocket money if the children help around the home. Some experts think it not wise to pay the children for doing that. _4.__
Pocket money can give children a chance to experience the three things they can do with the money. They can spend it by giving it to a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. _5.__ Saving helps children understand that costly goals require sacrifice. Saving can also open the door to future saving and investing for children.
A. One main purpose is to let kids learn how to manage their own money.
B. Some children are good at managing their pocket money.
C. Because helping at home is a normal part of family life.
D. By doing so, these children will learn that spending must be done with a budget.
E. Learning how to make money is very important for every child.
F. They can save it for future use.
G. Timing is another consideration.
With petroleum reserve（石油储量）decreasing, the search is on to replace gas with a cleaner, greener alternative. Though much eco-talk has centered on biofuels from corn and soybeans, the biofuel that looks more likely to replace petroleum comes from a most unlikely source: algae（藻类）.
Algae, like corn, soybeans, and other crops, grow via photosynthesis（光合作用）and can be processed into fuel oil. However, they yield 30 times more energy than land crops such as soybeans, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Many algae species also can grow in saltwater and polluted water—while corn and soy require arable(适于耕种的) land and fresh water that will be in short supply as the world’s population balloons.
“If you replaced all the diesel（柴油）in the U.S. with soy biodiesel, it would take half the land mass of the U.S. to grow those soybeans,” says Matt Caspari, chief executive of Aurora Biofuels, a Berkeley, Calif-based private firm that specializes in algae oil technology. On the other hand, the Energy Department says that if algae fuel replaced all the petroleum fuel in the United States, it would require only l5, 000 square miles, which is a few thousand miles larger than Maryland (12,407 squaree miles), the 42nd state in land area.
Another advantages: Because algae can be grown just about anywhere in a closed space, they’re being tested at several power plants across the nation as a carbon absorber. Smokestack emissions（烟囱排放物）can be pumped directly into the ponds, feeding the algae while keeping greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere.
Although processing technology for algae fuel—also known as “oilgae” in some environmentalist circles —is improving, it’s still years away from reaching your local gas pump. “It’s just a question of cost, because no large-scale facilities have been built yet,” Caspari says.
