    Most likely, you aren’t the family breadwinner. But doing a small job or getting a weekly allowance(零花钱) would put some money in your pocket. For kids and grown-ups alike, money is easy to spend. If you aren’t careful, it can be going in no time.
    Being responsible with your money is an important skill to learn — and the sooner you start the better. Whether you are tracking your spending or saving for something special, creating a budget can help you deal with your expenses and plan for the future. All you need are paper and a pencil — and some self-control.
    First, take a look at our sample monthly budget. Then, use a separate sheet of paper to plan your own. In the first two columns(栏), list your sources of income and how much you expect to earn from them. In the third and fourth columns, list what you expect to spend your money on and the amount.
    The left-hand total should be more than or equal to the right-hand total. If it is, you have an effective budget.
    Budgets are not complex, but sticking to them can be tough. When planning your budget, be realistic about your expenses. If you know that you drop $18 at a movie, don’t write $12 in that space simply because you wish you were spending less.
    If you are eyeing a big purchase, such as a $150 skateboard, spend less and save more until you have the total amount. No matter how attractive it may be, avoid spending your savings. One day, you will thank yourself!

    WILD WEATHERMAN
    Name: Sam Champion
    Hot job: TV Weatherman
    Where: WABC-TV, New York City
    When you were a child, did you plan to forecast wind, rain, and snow on TV?
    I wanted to be a foreign journalist．I took courses in weather science at Eastern Kentucky University, but I majored in broadcasting news．
    How did you finally become a weatherman?
    My first job in the early 80’s was at the local TV station in Paducah, Kentucky．I did everything from turning on the lights in the morning to writing and delivering morning news．I put together weather forecasts, and became interested in them．
    Back then, how did you forecast weather?
    Independent companies collected computer information that showed, for example, how a single weather system might split into snow or snow mixed with rain．The information was often opposite and the job of a weatherman was to study the information and make the best educated guess about the storm．
    Has weather forecasting changed much with new technology?
    Advanced computers, satellites, and Doppler radar （sound waves used to track storms） have made forecasting more exact．But we still know very little about how weather is shaped．So far, we just have theories．
    Any advice for children who’d like to become weather scientists?
    To me, weather is the most exciting field in the world．There are still so many more questions about weather than answers．After all, if we can’t foresee floods or hurricanes, how safe a society are we? Weather forecasting is wide open for scientists who love to solve puzzling problems．The next generation of meteorologists （weather scientists） will unlock many of Earth’s weather secrets．So get a general knowledge of Earth science, and study meteorology （weather science） in college．
    Thanks, Sam．                                
    1．Judging from the writing style, the text is ________．
    A．a diary   B．an interview     C．a news story     D．an announcement
    2．As a child, ABC-TV’s Sam Champion wanted to be a ________．
    A．space scientist  B．weatherman     C．news reporter   D．meteorologist
    3．Present weather forecasting technology ________．
    A．has made weather report more exact than ever            
    B．is still not perfect
    C．hasn’t changed much in the last 50 years                           
    D．both A and B
    4．The study of weather science is called ________．
