2 . Money Matters

Parents should help their children understand money.     1    . So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things, candy or toys, for example.

● The basic function of money

Begin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services. It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have.If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收银员).    2    . When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more complex ways of using money.

● Money lessons

Approach money lessons with openness and honesty.     3    . If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money, explain, “You have enough toy trucks for now.” Or, if the request is for many different things, say, “You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.”

●     4    

Begin at the grocery store. Pick out two similar brands of a product—a kind of name-brand butter and a generic (无商标消费品),for example. You can show your child how to make choices between different brands of a product so that you can save money.     5    . If he chooses the cheaper brand, allow him to make another purchase with the money saved. Later, you may explain how the more expensive choice leaves less money for other purchases.

A．Wise decisions

B．The value of money

C．Permit the child to choose between them

D．Tell your child why he can—or cannot—have certain things

E．Ask yourself what things that cost money are most important to you

F．Talk about how the money bought the thing after you leave the toy store

G．The best time to teach a child something about money is when he shows an interest

8 . If you’ll be taking vacation time in the coming year and plan on flying, here are some useful tips for buying a cheap ticket.

When to buy

If you’re going to buy tickets for domestic (国内的) flights, check prices on Tuesday afternoons. This is an old tip but still useful because most U. S. carriers continue to release sales on Tuesday morning, and competitors quickly drop their fares to match the better deals.

When to fly

Weekdays continue to be generally cheaper times to fly than weekends for most flights. In the U. S. , the cheapest days are typically Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday. A good itinerary (旅行计划) for the expensive U. S. spring break travel period is scheduled from Tuesday to Saturday; it will save you money (in most cases).

Where to fly

We continue to see good deals to Boston and Denver and more and more nice prices to Chicago, Seattle and Washington, D. C. . As for Europe, there have been surprising deals throughout the fall and those will continue into the winter.

Direct flights vs connecting flights

Compare the price of direct flights with that of connecting flights. Sometimes adding a stop to your route will save you money, and it might be enough to endure the extra long flying day. An example: San Francisco to Raleigh: $553 for a direct flight, $362 with one stop.

You'd better think twice about the direct flight for San Francisco to Raleigh.

Compare, compare, compare

Stifle the impulse to go to your favorite airline site to purchase tickets without doing any comparison. Example: Let’s say you want to fly from New York to London and figure your favorite U. S. legacy carrier will get you there for the best price—$554 for a round trip.

However, the comparison site also shows a cheaper flight from the same legacy carrier ($521). See what you're missing when you fail to do comparison?

A．Those who usually choose first class for their flights.

B．Those who want to find suggestions on where to fly.

C．Those who are travelling during the spring break.

D．Those who are looking for the best airline ticket prices.
