When I began to move to Auckland to study the law, my mother was a little worried about the uncertainty of living in a place that was so different from India, where we lived. She worried about the shortage of jobs and the cultural differences that I would face.
I came to New Zealand in July 2013. I found the people were very nice and supportive. Soon after I arrived, I realized the importance of getting a part time job to make a living.
Deciding to do this on my own, I spent a whole day going from door to door for a job. However, I received a little or no reply. This became my daily activity after college for a few weeks.
One afternoon, I walked into a building to ask if there were any job chances. The people there were very surprised, and advised me not to continue my job search in that way. As I was about to leave, a secretary in the building came up to me and encouraged me to stay confident. He then offered to take me to the Royal Oak area to search for a job.
Along the way, I realized I had run out of copies of my resume (簡歷). The man stopped at his friend‟s office to make me 15 extra copies. He also gave me tips on dressing and speaking. I handed out my resume and went home. The following day, I received a call from a store in Royal Oak offering me a job.
It seemed that the world always gives back to you when you need it. And this time, it was a complete stranger who turned out to be a real blessing (祝福).

Soap is more popular in liquid form than in bars in the UK – but there are good reasons to stick with the old traditional way of keeping clean, says Gareth Rubin.
According to market research company Mintel, 87% of
Britons usually buy liquid soap, compared to only 13% who buy bars of it. And solid soap is losing the popularity. But why do some people still prefer traditional solid soap?
1.It’s what they’ve always known.
Some people are just traditionalists. According to Mark Constantine, he thinks it’s always lovely when we’re using something that’s been about for 3, 000 years. Solid soap has got a huge history and they’re very beautiful.
2.Solid soap is more pleasant.
Smelling a plastic bottle doesn’t feel very comfortable, while you can get bars of different textures and smells – some bars have sea salt, nuts, fruits or flowers in them for a bit of a surprise. Others come in beautiful or even funny shapes and sizes. You can tie attractive bars of soap up in silk ribbons (絲帶) and present them as a gift to a loved one – the effect isn’t quite the same when you do this with a liquid soap.
3.Less packaging (包裝) is better for the planet.
All those bottles has to come from somewhere and go somewhere. Recycling can only do so much, whereas typically a bar of soap comes in a little paper wrapper and that’s it. If you care about the environment, you can even buy bars of soap without paper around them. “And about 60% of the cost of a bottle of soap goes on the packaging and the pump (泵頭).” says Constantine.
4.The bottles are a little bit difficult.
You can hold a bar of soap in one hand and it works. With the bottles you first have to use both hands to unlock the pump, and shut your eyes to the liquid slowly dropping the sticky thing onto your bathroom floor. When the bar of soap runs down, you can still use it until it is no more, but with the liquid soap it is a difficult task to get the last drop out of the bottom.
1.According to market research company Mintel, ______.
A.solid soap is as popular as liquid soap
B.more people refuse to buy liquid soap
C.solid soap is becoming less popular
D.solid soap is better for the planet
2.Compared to solid soap, liquid soap ______.
A.has less packaging
B.has a much longer history
C.is more pleasant in smells
D.has less funny shapes and sizes
3.What can you infer from the passage?
A.Liquid soap is not worth the price according to Constantine.
B.A bottle of liquid soap cannot be a present for a friend.
C.More people will buy solid soap without silk ribbons.
D.It’s impossible to use up the liquid soap in a bottle.
4.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.People’s preference to soap is changing.
B.Liquid soap is still liked by many Britons.
C.The advantages and disadvantages of solid soap.
D.The reasons why some people still prefer solid soap.

Many children first learn the value of money by receiving an allowance (pocket money). The purpose is to let children learn from experiences at an age when financial (財務的) mistakes are not very costly.
How much money that parents give to their children to spend as they wish is quite different from family to family. Timing is another consideration. Some children get a weekly allowance. Others get a monthly allowance.
In any case, parents should make clear what, if anything, the child is expected to pay for with the money. At first, young children may spend all of their allowance soon after they receive it. If they do this, they will learn the hard way that spending must be done within a budget (預算). Parents are usually advised not to offer more money until the next allowance. The object is to show young people that a budget requires a choice between spending and saving. Older children may be responsible enough to save money for larger costs, like clothing or electronics.
Many people who have written on the subject of allowances say it is not a good idea to pay your children for work around the home. These jobs are a normal part of family life. Paying children to do other work around the house, however, can be useful. It can even provide an understanding of how a business works.
Allowances give children a chance to experience the three things they do with money. They can share it in the form of gifts or giving a good cause. They can spend it by buying things they want. Or they can save it.
Saving helps children understand that costly goals sometimes need to give up something. You have to cut costs and plan for the future. Requiring children to save part of their allowances can also open the door to future saving and investing. Many banks offer services to help children and teenagers learn about personal finance. A saving account (賬戶) is an excellent way to learn about the power of compound interest (復利息).
Compounding works by paying interest. So, for example, one dollar invested at two percent interest for two years will get two percent of one dollar and two cents, and so on. That may not seem like a lot, but over time it adds up.
1.Parents give their children allowance in order to ______.
A.let them make more money
B.pay for the housework they do
C.let them learn the value of money
D.help children manage family finance
2.What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A.The time to give allowance.
B.The way to spend allowance.
C.How much allowance given to children.
D.Considerations taken to give allowances.
3.Why are parents advised to offer children allowances as planned?
A.To have children save money for larger costs.
B.To give them more allowances next time.
C.To help children learn to make a budget.
D.To let children make fewer mistakes.
4.What does the writer try to tell us?
A.The ways of limiting allowances.
B.The advice on a better family budget.
C.Offering allowance to children properly.
D.Teaching children to use allowances wisely.
