How much pocket money do you get from your parents every week? What do you often do with your money?
We asked three British middle school students for their opinions(意见)on pocket money.
Ruth: I get 5 pounds from my parents every week. I usually save 1.5 pounds and spend the rest. Generally(通常),the two things I like to buy with my pocket money are sports suits and shoes. And I don't usually talk about pocket money with my friends at school. It's important not to show off(炫耀)what you have.
Maya: I get 2 pounds from my mum and 2 pounds from my dad every week. I try to save some and buy some things for my families. This year,I bought my mum a music box on Mother's Day and it cost me 9.5 pounds. I also often spend my pocket money on CDs. I like the idea of having my own(自己的)money to spend.
Jimmy: My mum gives me 9 pounds a week. She says I can either spend it at the school dining hall or she will make me a packed(打包好的)lunch(and then I can spend the 9 pounds on the things I want). I like sports shoes. If I don't have enough money for something I want to buy,my mum might give me 1 more pound. Sometimes,I have to do some housework to make more money. I know some parents can't give their kids much pocket money. So I try not to talk about my pocket money at school.

你每周从父母那里得到多少零花钱?你经常用这些钱做什么?
我们询问了三位英国中学生关于零花钱的看法。
露丝:我每周从父母那里得到5英镑。我通常存1.5英镑,花剩下的钱。一般来说,我喜欢用零花钱买的两样东西是运动服和鞋子。而且我通常在学校不会和朋友们谈论零花钱。重要的是不要炫耀自己拥有的东西。
玛雅:我每周从妈妈那里得到2英镑,从爸爸那里也得到2英镑。我试着存一些钱,然后给家人买一些东西。今年母亲节,我给妈妈买了一个音乐盒,花了我9.5英镑。我也经常把零花钱花在光盘上。我喜欢用自己的钱买东西的这种感觉。
吉米:我妈妈每周给我9英镑。她说我可以把钱花在学校食堂,或者她会给我做一份打包好的午餐(这样我就可以把这9英镑花在我想要的东西上)。我喜欢运动鞋。如果我没有足够的钱买我想要的东西,我妈妈可能会再给我1英镑。有时候,我得做一些家务来赚更多的钱。我知道有些父母不能给他们的孩子很多零花钱。所以我尽量不在学校谈论我的零花钱。
