2、uipped to deal with difficulties posed by the “real world” when they grow up and they also believe the privileged children of wealthy families are less fit to deal with these difficulties.The implications and veracity of this argument seem self-evident,but in fact require closer examination.The popu

3、lar wisdom is that children of poorer families learn early on the value of a buck ,and are thus naturally better suited to stretching money when times get tough in adulthood. Inversely, the children of wealthy families,thoseborn with a silver spoon in their mouths,are believed to be completely ignor

4、ant of the tentimes erroneously expecting the same situation in adulthood.They are believed to be prone to overspending and financial irresponsibility. This belief,though logical,overlooks one key point which is,of course,education.The basis of this argument is,of course,knowing the value of money ,

5、and the idea that children of the poor know this,and those of the wealthy do not.Who though,is in a better positionto teach their children the value of money,someone skilled in earning and keeping it,the wealthy parent,or someone who can not seem to acquire it,the poor parent? Both wealthy and poor

6、children are equally likely to acquire an education in money,whether it is formal,or in the school of hard knocks.

8、oth.It hurts to look at a paycheck and see how much of it was taken out for income tax. That money could have paid some important bills. It is easy to dream of doing away with the income tax and keeping all that money for ourselves.If there were no income tax, however, the government would have a lo

9、t less to spend. The money we send to Washington seems to fall into a black hole and disappear. Actually, though, many people depend on it. The money pays the salaries of government employees, who provide services from drug control to highway building. It supports our military defense. Also, much of

10、 the money is returned to people in the form. of student loans, veterans benefits, and payments to farmers, for example. The government has been working to cut its budget lately. With every cut, someone complains loudly.So if the income tax were eliminated, other taxes would have to make up for it.

11、Paying those other taxes would also hurt. Sales taxes fall most heavily on poor people. Taxes on manufacturers only result in higher prices to consumers.Income taxes are not fun to pay. But doing without them would be worse. In my opinion, income taxes should be made as fair as possible. Then we eac

12、h must bite the bullet and do our share.3. Nowadays there is more and more TV advertisement, and there is a lot of misinformation in some of these advertisements.

Recently, there are people who are of the opinion that public has the right to know the correct information of the advertisements and government also should

14、restrict the contents of these advertisements. Personally I agree with this opinion for the following reasons.In the first instance, consumers have the right to know the correct information before deciding on whether to buy them. Advertisements are highly information that helps people to make choice

15、 before they go to buy what they need. If the advertisement exaggerates the products it also will persuade people into buying things, which they dont really want.Secondly, any misleading advertisements will lead to the marketing tricks, causing chaos in the market. Too many misleading advertisements

16、 are barrio to distinguishing between decent products or products of bad quality. His bread in truth is made with soy flour, while he advertises it as white bread. These misleading information causes illegal competition.Last but not least, government should stipulate laws in consumers interests. Acc

17、ording to the laws, advertisements must be truthful. If the advertisements mislead consumers, government can impose great fine on them to set a lesson.In general, the role of advertisements is inevitable and undeniable. A good advertisement can be a bridge between business and consumers and helps ke

18、ep business moving. So we need correct information and government also needs to restrict the contents of advertisements. Let misinformation of advertisements be far away from us.4. Most people have dreams of one day becoming rich. But does the average person have the ability to make a lot of money?

19、Think about this question. Then write about 250 words describing your thoughts.When lack of money prevents us from having something we want very much, it is tempting to dream of being rich. It is hard to keep in mind that Americans are already wealthy compared with people in many other parts of the

20、world. Our modern conveniences would have been the envy of kings in times past. Just the same, most people would like a larger. Whether most people are capable of making a lot of money is another question.People in average circumstances can often get ahead through education, hard work, and careful m

21、oney management. But getting ahead is not the same as actually becoming rich.Only a small percentage of Americans could be called truly wealthy. Some people joined this group from ordinary beginnings. Usually they have done it by carefully riding some major development in the economy on its way up.

22、In the past, great fortunes have been made in oil, steel, and railroads. Recently, some people have made millions in computers and real estate.Usually, though, it takes money to make money.

23、al breakthrough. Most people are not born into wealthy families, either. In America it certainly is possible to become more prosperous. But unless someone wins the lottery, real wealth is not very likely to come along.5. Surveys show that more people get the news by watching television than by readi

24、ng the newspaper. Think about whether TV news shows are adequate as a persons only source of news. Write an essay of about 250 words that details your thoughts.Television news shows are dramatic and interesting. Watching them is pleasant and does not require the effort of reading. If television did

25、not cover the news, some people would know nothing about what is going on in the world.However, television newscasters cover only the events that they have time for, and they prefer stories that include some dramatic pictures. Viewers are quickly bored with reporters who sit and talk into the camera

26、. As a result, a complicated story is often cut short.Newspapers and magazines do a better job of explaining complex events. They can include details, and a person with a special interest can take the time to read them. Others can stick to the headlines.Reading allows more freedom of choice than tel

27、evision. The TV audience cannot decide which stories to watch. In broadcasting, one size fits all. However, a person who reads newspapers and magazines can choose to spend time on business, sports, health, or the school board election, depending on special interests.Television provides a useful glan

30、ial and personal advantages.

32、hey all depended on the same farm or business.Usually these arrangements do help solve financial and practical problems. Everyone has a roof over his or her head.
