During her junior year of high school,Diane Ray's teacher handed her a worksheet and instructed the 17-year-old to map out her future financial life.Ray pretended to buy a car,rent an apartment,and apply for a credit card.Then,she and her classmates played the"stock market game",investing the hypothetical earnings from their hypothetical jobs in the market in the disastrous fall of 2008."Our pretend investments crashed,"Ray says,still frightened."We got to know how it felt to lose money."

That pain of earning and losing money is a feeling that public schools increasingly want to teach.Forty states now offer some type of financial instruction at the high-school level,teaching students how to balance checkbooks and buy stock in math and social-studies classes.Though it's too early to measure the full influence of the Great Recession,the interest in personal-finance classes has risen since 2007 when bank failures started to occur regularly.Now,many states including Missouri,Utah,and Tennessee require teenagers to take financial classes to graduate from high school.School districts such as Chicago are encouraging money-management classes for kids as young as primary school,and about 300 colleges or universities now offer online personal-finance classes for incoming students."These classes really say,'This is how you live independently,'"says Ted Beck,president of National Endowment for Financial Education.

Rather than teach investment methods or financial skills,these courses offer a back-to-the-basics approach to handling money:Don't spend what you don't have.Put part of your monthly salary into a savings account,and invest in the stock market for the long-term rather than short-term gains.For Ray,this means dividing her earnings from her part-time job at a fast-food restaurant into separate envelopes for paying bills,spending and saving."Money is so hard to make but so easy to spend,"she says one weekday after school."That is the big takeaway."

Teaching kids about the value of cash certainly is one of the programs'goals,but teachers also want students to think hard about their finances long term.It's easy for teenagers to get annoyed about gas prices because many of them drive cars.But the hard part is urging them to put off the instant satisfaction of buying a new T-shirt or an iPod."Investing and retirement aren't things teenagers are thinking about.For them,the future is this weekend,"says Gayle Whitefield,a business and marketing teacher at Uth’s Riverton High School.

That’s a big goal for these classes:preventing kids from making the same financial missteps their parents did when it comes to saving,spending,and debt.Though the personal savings rate has increased up to 4.2 percent,that’s still a far distance from 1982,when Americans saved 11.2 percent of their incomes.“It’s hard for schools to reach strict money-management skills when teenagers go home and watch their parents increase credit-card debt.It’s like telling your kids not to smoke and then lighting up a cigarette in front of them,”Beck says.

Even with these challenges,students such as Ray say learning about money in school is worthwhile.After Ray finished her financial class,she opened up a savings account at her local bank and started to think more about how she and her family would pay for college.“She just has a better understanding of money and how it affects the world,”says her mother,Darleen-and that’s sown to the details of how money is spent from daily expenses to various taxes.All of this talk of money can make Ray worry,she says,but luckily,she feels prepared to face it.

During her junior year of high school,Diane Ray's teacher handed her a worksheet and instructed the 17-year-old to map out her future financial life.Ray pretended to buy a car,rent an apartment,and apply for a credit card.Then,she and her classmates played the"stock market game",investing the hypothetical earnings from their hypothetical jobs in the market in the disastrous fall of 2008."Our pretend investments crashed,"Ray says,still frightened."We got to know how it felt to lose money."

That pain of earning and losing money is a feeling that public schools increasingly want to teach.Forty states now offer some type of financial instruction at the high-school level,teaching students how to balance checkbooks and buy stock in math and social-studies classes.Though it's too early to measure the full influence of the Great Recession,the interest in personal-finance classes has risen since 2007 when bank failures started to occur regularly.Now,many states including Missouri,Utah,and Tennessee require teenagers to take financial classes to graduate from high school.School districts such as Chicago are encouraging money-management classes for kids as young as primary school,and about 300 colleges or universities now offer online personal-finance classes for incoming students."These classes really say,'This is how you live independently,'"says Ted Beck,president of National Endowment for Financial Education.

Rather than teach investment methods or financial skills,these courses offer a back-to-the-basics approach to handling money:Don't spend what you don't have.Put part of your monthly salary into a savings account,and invest in the stock market for the long-term rather than short-term gains.For Ray,this means dividing her earnings from her part-time job at a fast-food restaurant into separate envelopes for paying bills,spending and saving."Money is so hard to make but so easy to spend,"she says one weekday after school."That is the big takeaway."

Global warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about$125 billion in economic losses each year,according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum,an organization led by Annan,the former United Nations secretary general.

The report,to be released Friday,analyzed data and existing studies of health,disaster,population and economic trends.It found that human-influenced climate change was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition and heat-related health problems.

But even before its release,the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk,who questioned its methods and conclusions.

Along with the deaths,the report said that the lives of 325 million people,primarily in poor countries,were being seriously affected by climate change.It projected that the number would double by 2030.

Roger Pielke Jr.,a political scientist at the University of Colorado,Boulder,who studies disaster trends,said the Forum's report was"a methodological embarrassment"because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable regions.Dr.Pielke said that“climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost attention.”But the report,he said,"will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed."

However,Soren Andreasen,a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report,defended it,saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates.He said the report was aimed at world leaders,who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.

In a press release describing the report,Mr.Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability to climate hazards while still curbing the emissions of the heat-trapping gases.More than 90%of the human and economic losses from climate change are occurring in poor countries,according to the report.

What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?

  • A. Global temperatures affect the rate of economic development
  • B. Rates of death from illnesses have risen due to global warming
  • C. Malnutrition has caused serious health problems in poor countries
  • D. onomic trends have to do with population and natural disasters

I hear many parents saying that their teenage children are rebellion.I wish it were so.At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents.You should be learning to stand on your own two feet.But take a good look at the present rebellion.It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they degree with their parents.Instead of striking out bravely on their own,most of them are trying to seize at one another’s hands for safety.

They say they want to dress as they please.But they all wear the same clothes.They set off in new directions in music.But somehow reason for thinking or acting in thus-and-such a way is that the crowd is doing it.They have come out of their cocoon—into a larger cocoon.

It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way.Industry has firmly opened up a teenage market.These days every teenager can learn from newspapers and TV what a teenager should have and be.And many of today’s parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children.All this adds up to great difficulty for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.

But the difficulty is worth getting over.The path is worth following.You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party.You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records.You may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with your classmates.Well,go to it.Find yourself.Be yourself.Popularity will come—with the people who respect you for who you are.That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.

The writer’s purpose in writing this passage is to tell(  ).

  • A. readers how to be popular in the world
  • B. parents how to control and guide their children
  • C. teenagers how to learn to decide things for themselves
  • D. people how to understand and respect each other

But the difficulty is worth getting over.The path is worth following.You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party.You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records.You may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with your classmates.Well,go to it.Find yourself.Be yourself.Popularity will come—with the people who respect you for who you are.That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.

What can be inferred from the last paragraph?(  )

  • A. Teenagers should follow the popularity wave
  • B. Teenagers can follow their hearts and do whatever they want to
  • C. Following the popularity wave is necessary
  • D. The real popularity mainly relies on the social development

I hear many parents saying that their teenage children are rebellion.I wish it were so.At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents.You should be learning to stand on your own two feet.But take a good look at the present rebellion.It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they degree with their parents.Instead of striking out bravely on their own,most of them are trying to seize at one another’s hands for safety.

Today,only 4 million people live and work on farms in the United States,but they produce more than enough food for 200 million Americans.They are able to do this because modern agriculture depends more on up-to-date machinery and scientific methods than it does on old-fashioned knowledge and human labor.

These days,one man or woman spending an afternoon in an air-conditioned,stereo-equipped tractor can do the work that years ago would have required hundreds of hours of back-breaking drudgery.

As a result of the modernization of agriculture,the farm of today looks a lot like a factory.When the farmer's hens lay their eggs,conveyor belts carry the eggs off to be sorted and packed.If the farmer keeps pigs,those pigs will not be wallowing in the mud,but lying around in sanitary pens.And the farmer is likely to be found studying a computer print-out of long-range weather conditions.Why isn’t the farmer milking cows in the barn?The answer is easy:A machine is doing it.

This reliance on modern technology has its problems for farmers.The tractors that plow their fields,the combines that reap and thresh the grain,and the silos that store the grain for winter feeding are all very expensive.For example,a single tractor can cost as much as$50,000.Without this equipment,farmers could not run their farms profitably,but,to pay for it,farmers must take out large bank loans.A single bad season could put them deeply in debt.And,when the machinery wears out or becomes obsolete,the farmers must replace it with newer,more expensive models.Still,most farmers are willing to put up with these difficulties because their machines have freed them from the heavy labor and hard life that farmers had to endure in the past.

In the United States there are fewer farmers,because(  ).

  • A. modern agriculture provides enough food
  • B. many farmers have moved to cities
  • C. there are more well-equipped tractors
  • D. many farms are turned into factories
