From Monday to Friday most people are busy working or studying, but in the evenings and weekends they are free and  31 themselves. Some watch television or go to the cinema, others take part in sports. This is decided by their own   32  .

There are many different ways to spend our free time.

Almost everyone has some kind of   33  : it may be something from collecting stamps to ____34___ model planes. Some hobbies are very   35 , but others don’t cost anything at all. Some collections are worth(值得…的)  36 of money, others are valuable(有價值的) only to their owners.

I know a man who has a coin collection worth several   37  dollars. A short time ago he bought a rare(罕見的)fifty-cent piece which   38  him $250! He was very happy about this collection and thought the price was all right. On the other hand, my youngest brother collects match boxes. He has almost 600 of them, but I wonder(懷疑) if they are worth any money. However,  39  my brother they are quite valuable.

 40  makes him happier than to find a new match box for his collection.

If you live in the United States, the law says you can’t have a full-time job until you are 16 years old. At 14 or 15, you can work part-time after school or on weekends, and during summer you can work 40 hours each week. Does all that mean that if you are younger than 14, you can’t earn （賺） your own money? Of course not! Kids who are between the ages of 10 and 13 can earn money by doing lots of things.

Valerie, 11, told us that she made money by cleaning up other people’s yards. Lena, 13, makes money by knitting （織）dog sweaters and selling them to her neighbors, and Reisa said she had started taking art classes and showing her work to people. People have asked her to draw pictures for them and they pay her for them. Jasmine, 13, writes articles for different magazines!

Earning is learning. By working to earn your own money, you are learning the skills you will need to succeed in life. These skills can include things like getting along with others, using technology （技術）and using your time. Some people think that asking for money is a lot easier than earning it; however, when you make your own money, you don’t have to depend on someone else. The five dollars that you earn will probably make you feel a lot better in your hand than the twenty dollars you ask for.
