It's helpful to know how much money we usually spend on different things. Then，if we also know how much money we will have，we can decide (决定) which things we should buy now and which things we can go without.

### 五、阅读理解
了解我们通常在不同事物上花费多少钱是有帮助的。然后，如果我们也知道自己将会有多少钱，我们就可以决定现在应该买哪些东西，以及哪些东西我们可以不买。
以下是一名学生在学年期间的每周预算。
这名学生每周只有50美元可花，所以他必须在一些东西上少花钱，或者完全不买这些东西。如果他想节省公交费，他可以步行去上学。如果他不买任何糖果，他每周可以节省5美元。或者，如果他不喝软饮料，他可以节省3美元。如果他自带午餐，他可以在午餐上省钱。他可以通过向朋友借书或买二手书来节省买科学书籍的钱。他不必去看电影或去食品店。
不同的人需要或想要不同的东西，所以他们的预算也不同。女孩的爱好可能和男孩的不一样。他们需要根据自己的需求制定不同的预算。
对我们大多数人来说，每周预算只有一点帮助。我们真的需要有每月预算，甚至每年预算。这是因为我们可能每月或每年只支付一些东西的费用。例如，衣服、课本、假期等等都不是每周的费用。它们是每月或每年的费用。
