There are many things we need to know, but we do not learn them at school. For example, if we want to use our money wisely, we need to shop carefully. We need to know how to compare(比较) the prices of the things in different shops. We also need to know how to make the best choice when we shop.
Knowing how to make such choices is a life skill, and we need to practice it in our daily life.
