I used to walk around the store with my parents constantly begging for something. I remember the sight of all
the colorful bags of chips and candy that I asked my parents to buy for me. I cannot remember a time when I didn't be
for something at the store.
When I was about twelve years old, my dad always 1 my begging and told me with a frustrated(使人挫败
的) face, “You can waste all the money as you want when you have a job.” I listened, but I never really heard the 2
he was trying to get across to me. Since I wanted so many things and my parents were not going to buy them for me, I
decided to make money as a 3 myself. I remember the feeling of getting new money in my pocket, then
throwing it out within the next week.
A few years later, I was a freshman in high school and did not feel like looking for a new job. One day, I saw
people handing out flyers(传单) at school. I wasn't 4 at first because I thought I was fine making money by
babysitting. But once I 5 thought about the money I could make, I applied to work as a lifeguard advertised on
the flyer.
After a few months' training, I could finally start the job. But the more money I made, the less I wanted to spend.

I started saving up. I finally realized that money meant so much more to me because I was the one 7 for it. Now,
I have 5,000 dollars in my bank account, and I limit myself to what I buy. My life has permanently(持久地) been
influenced because I know the 8 of money. It is more than what I can spend.

Waste happens everywhere. On April 25, I went back to the classroom to get my pencil box I had
left there. But I found the lights in the classroom were still on. It just wastes too much electricity

Ⅳ.阅读填表格
When people hear the word stress, they usually think of something bad. But stress can have several benefits(益
处) for the body and mind. To begin with, people may feel stressed when there is something important to do. For
example, some students are stressed before a big test. The stress might make them feel nervous, but it also makes
them focused. This type of stress can help people work efficiently(高效地) to meet their goals.
Another way stress benefits us is by keeping us healthy. Scientists who study stress learnt a little stress can make
the immune system(免疫系统) stronger. When your body learnt to respond(反应) to some stress, it's able to protect
you better from illness.
The final way that stress benefits us is by helping us respond to the dangerous things. If you see a car coming
around the corner too fast, you might experience stress. This stress sends a message to warn your brain of danger,
allowing your body to respond quickly. You may not be able to jump out of the car's way soon enough if there isn't
the stress.
However, one coin has two sides. Too much stress does harm to our bodies and minds. For example, when you
are so worried about something that you have a headache or even can't sleep at night, you cannot pay enough
attention during a test or in your study. The bad feeling in your mind can make you angry, sad or scared, and even can
give you a stomachache or a headache.
The best way to fight the stress is to have a balanced life. Make sure you get enough sleep and eat properly.
Have some regular exercise. You should take some time for fun. Get advice from your parents, teachers and friends.
Soon after that, you'll probably get away from your stress.
