Cooking 
One great way to save money is to learn to cook for yourself． Beyond that， cooking at home also helps you control your diet for better health． If you start doing this at an early age， you will not have to depend on your parents too much．
Keeping Promises： 
Promises are a matter of honesty and should be made with care． We must learn from an early age that our word must be followed up by action． When it isn't， others will quickly lose trust in us and not respect us．
Accepting Rejection （拒绝） 
Though you must． be careful not to break your word， others' promises aren't always kept． Learn about it early， and you won't be hurt easily． Also， not every job application or desired （渴望的） friendship will work out， so remember that there are more fish in the sea．
Lifelong Learning

Do you know what you'd like to be when you grow up？ It takes most people many years to find this out． For the young artist Alexandra Nechita， it never really seemed to be a question． From the day she began drawing at the age of two， she was an artist．
Alexandra Nechita was born in Romania in 1985and moved to California when she was still a baby． As a little child， she loved colouring in her colouring books． Her parents hoped she could spend more time playing with other children， so they took away her colouring books． Alexandra began drawing her own pictures and colouring them in．
By the time Alexandra was seven years old， she had begun painting with oil paints． When Alexandra took a local art class， her teacher was amazed at the young artist's unusual style of painting． Alexandra's work was similar in some ways to the paintings by famous artists like Picasso． These artists did not use a realistic style of painting． They allowed their imaginations to play an important part in their work． The interesting thing was that little Alexandra had never seen the work of these artists． People called her "Little Picasso"． This was a great honour， but Alexandra's style of painting was all her own．
Alexandra's first public show was held at a Los Angeles public library when she was only eight years old． People were amazed at how young Alexandra was， but mostly they loved her imaginative artwork． It did not take long for Alexandra and her work to become famous． She appeared on television programs and in newspapers and magazines all over the world． The sale of a single piece can earn the young artist thousands of dollars． But that is not why Alexandra creates artwork． She just cannot imagine doing anything else that would bring her such joy and satisfaction．

Hundreds of years ago， no dandelions （蒲公英） grew in North America． Then people came from Europe．They had dandelion seeds on their clothes． The seeds fell from their clothes onto the ground． Since then， dandelions have spread all over．
Most people believe that dandelions are weeds． They do not want them in their gardens． But some people think that dandelion flowers are pretty． And others think that dandelions taste good． They cook dandelion leaves or put them into a fresh salad． The leaves must be picked before the flowers come out or they will not taste good． Some people make dandelion flowers into wine．
Dandelions do not die easily． If the winter is not very cold， their leaves may stay green．
When the spring arrives， their flowers come out． Each night their bright yellow flowers close up． When the sun shines the next day， they open up again． Dandelion flowers are very unusual． They do not have to get pollen （花粉） from another dandelion flower in order to form seeds． So after several days， the yellow flower turns white and soft． A tiny brown seed forms at the bottom of each white petal （花瓣）． When the wind blows， the petals float away．
