Audrey is a Chinese-American student. She has found many value(价值观)differences between Chinese and Americans.
About money
(1) Americans would like to spend more than they have, so many of them are always in debt(欠债)．Chinese usually spend less than they have, so many of them always have money left in the bank.
(2) American kids love to make money by themselves. Chinese kids always ask their parents for money.
(3) American parents think it is not useful to send their children to an expensive university. Chinese parents would do anything to send their children to good universities and that might make them very poor sometimes.

Most children don't enjoy doing housework. They like playing computer games instead of cleaning the rooms. But in Australia, Jim and Robert's mother, Mrs. Black, has good and proper methods to get their children to do housework.
Here is an example.
“Mom, have you worked out next week's housework? Let Jim and me choose the cards. I can't wait. It's fun!”
When Robert shouted out, his mother had already put all the cards on their big table. On the cards, there are some words like these, “sweep the floor, clean your bedroom, help mom cook, wash vegetables, make beds, feed the fish, cut the wood, clean the bathroom” and many others. Jim and Robert chose two cards for each day from Monday to Friday. Then they would hang them on the weekday task board. Jim likes to clean the bathroom best, so he picked up the card “clean the bathroom” first. Robert loves to make the bed so he picked up his favorite card. Jim again picked up “wash vegetables” and Robert chose “feed the fish”. Soon the two boys were happy to take away all the cards.
To help the children do housework, their mother thought hard and thought up this idea. Of course, their parents did the housework on the weekends and left Jim and Robert two days free. From the passage we know that most children like ________.
| A．doing housework | B．playing computer games |
| C．playing cards | D．doing housework |
Jim and Robert chose ________ card for the weekdays from Monday to Friday.
| A．two | B．four | C．eight | D．ten |
Jim likes ________ best．
| A．cleaning the bathroom | B．making the bed |
| C．feeding the fish | D．sweeping the floor |
The underlined phrase “thought up ” probably means “________”.
| A．looked at | B．gave up |
| C．came up with | D．believed in |
Who did the housework on the weekends?
| A．Jim | B．Robert |
| C．The parents | D．The whole family |
