If you live in the United States, the law says you can't have a full?time job until you are 16 years old. At 14 or 15, you can work part-time after school or on weekends, and during summer you can work 40 hours each week. Does all that mean that if you are younger than 14, you can't earn(赚) your own money? Of course not! Kids who are between the ages of 10 and 13 can earn money by doing lots of things.
Valerie, 11, told us that she made money by cleaning up other people's yards. Lena, 13, makes money by knitting(织) dog sweaters and selling them to her neighbors, and Riesa said she had started taking art classes and showing her work to people. People have asked her to draw pictures for them and they pay her for them. Jasmine, 13, writes articles for different magazines!
Earning is learning. By working to earn your own money, you are learning the skills you will need to succeed in life. These skills can include things like getting along with others, using technology(技术) and using your time. Some people think that asking for money is a lot easier than earning it; however, when you make your own money, you don't have to depend on someone else. The five dollars that you earn will probably make you feel a lot better in your hand than the twenty dollars you ask for.
1.Kids can have full?time jobs at the age of ________ in the USA.
A. 17 B. 14
C. 13 D. 10
2.According to the passage, which of the following is Not True?
A. You are learning how to succeed by working in your teens.
B. Kids are encouraged to live independently in the USA.
C. Earning one's money is better than asking for money from others.
D. Kids don't need to get along with others when making money.
3.From the passage we know that ________.
A. parents won't let their children earn their own money
B. it's hard for kids under 14 years old to earn money in the USA
C. kids can learn skills if they try to earn money on their own
D. if kids try to earn money, they won't have enough time to study

Being in a negative space is harmful to our overall well-being.Let's give up some of the most common negative thoughts many of us repeat to ourselves.
●1.
Even if you find yourself lacking in something,there's no need to keep repeating it to yourself.The human brain is an unbelievable thing.Be inspired by Dr.Jill Bolte Taylor,who took eight years to recover from her illness and has since then written a best-selling book about her experience and appeared on Oprah.
●No one cares about me.
To accurately say that your family and friends don't care about you would be a very rare situation.Maybe you're being too negative and overlooking the gestures of love they show you.They don't even have to be big gestures,but it's the little things they did for you that count.2.Start showing people you care,so they can show you back in kind.
●I really dislike this person.
If you dislike a person,focusing on his had qualities is not going to make things better.You need to know that he is human too,which means he makes mistakes.3.Focus on his good qualities,and repeat them to yourself.
●Why is he better off?.
4.There's always going to be someone who is younger,prettier,smarter,or richer than you.Remember,there are people who are also worse off than you and what they don't have is your whole package.5.
