读书笔记三百字 BEIJING (News Agency) — Children in China today spend five times more money than their parents did when they were young.
So what are all these children buying? The list is long: iPads, cell phones and jeans are typical items that children “have to” buy. And they will do anything to get them. They ask their parents over and over until they buy them.
But parents also need to take the blame(责备) for spending so much money. They want their children to have the best things. They end up competing with other parents over whether their children have the latest products.
So it’s no wonder children find it hard to learn the importance of saving money rather than spending it all the time.
And it’s hard to save when companies use advertising (打广告)and clever slogans (口号) to encourage young people to buy their products. They even encourage children to keep asking their parents for something until they get it.
Today, you don’t even need to have money in order to buy something. Banks give out credit cards and loans (贷款) all the time, so people are saving less and less. We are used to carrying lots of money around. And if you don’t have much, you can always borrow some.
But this hasn’t always been the case. When our grandparents were young, there was very little money and everyone had to save hard for things they bought. They only bought things they needed, not things they just wanted.
The older generation made the wise expression, “Money doesn’t grow on trees. ” This is as true now as it was 50 years ago. They give money a great deal of value. And we all have a lot to learn from them.

When you set a foot outside of your door to drop litter, go to a social event or go for a walk, thoughts like "I hope I don't see anyone I know" or " please don't talk to me" may run through your mind. I've also said such things to myself. Sometimes the last thing you want to do is to talk with someone, especially someone new.
Why do we go out of our ways to avoid people? Do we think meeting new people is a waste of time? Or are we just lazy, thinking that meeting someone new really is a trouble?
Communication is the key to life. We have been told that many times. Take the past ge
nerations, like our parents, for example. They seem to take full advantage of that whole "communication" idea because they grew up talking face to face while Generation Y grew up staring at screens. We spend hours of our days sitting on Facebook. We send messages to our friends and think about all of the things we want to say to certain people.
Nowadays, we are so caught up in our little circle of friends—our comfort zone. We love it that they laugh at our jokes, understand our feelings and can read our minds. Most importantly, they know when we want to be alone. They just get us.
Holding a conversation with someone new means agreeing with things that you don't actually believe and being someone you think they want you to be—it is, as I said before, a trouble. It takes so much energy, and at some point, it is too tiring.
But meeting new people is important. Life is too short, so meet all the people you can meet, and make every effort to go out and laugh. Remember, every "hello" leads to a smile—and a smile is worth a lot.
4.What do we learn about the author?
A. He likes to be alone.
B. He feels stressed out lately.
C. He's active in attending social events.
