Dear Dr. Arthur,

I have a question for you. I make some money by doing chores at home. I sweep the floor, clean the room and walk the dog every day and I also take out the rubbish on Mondays, Wednesdays and Sundays. I think I do too much because I also take part in some activities after school and I have to do my homework every night.

I can get only $20 a week. And the amount I get is barely enough (勉强够) to go to the movies and buy popcorn(爆米花).

I want more money. I know nay parents are going to say "No", but, it's not fair. I am 14, so I can't get a job yet. But I really need more money to spend time with my friends. I don't know how to make them understand me. Could you please help me?

Should teenagers be allowed to have part-time jobs? We did a survey among two hundred people. According to the result, 78% say yes, and 22% say no. We choose some reasons as follows.

Agree	Disagree
Jobs prepare teenagers for later life. Many college graduates look forward to a satisfying job. But almost all job interviewers say they want someone with experience, It's difficult for you to get a job with no work experience. —Linda, Beijing	It is the time to study. If teenagers start working, they won't have time to study. They might keep on working to achieve someone else's dreams, not theirs. They are too young to decide for their future. —Alice, Wuhan
Jobs teach responsibility. Teenagers at 14 and older should be allowed to have part-time jobs. They teach responsibility and how to work as a team. What's more, teens who earn money at a young age can learn how to manage personal finances. —Bill, Hefei	Kids should pay more attention to their education. According to the survey, students who work more than 15 hours per week might lose interest in school and their grades may drop. This means kids might not enter university if they work part-time for a long time —Mike, Shanghai

I'm going to help the Forest Centre build new hiking paths in the mountains. It's going to be terrific-I'll spend the whole summer living in the tent and breathing the clean mountain air. I'm going to sleep under the stars. It'll be a nice spot, and I'll be able to do something good at the same time.

Medical experts say most Americans do not get enough sleep. They say more Americans need to take a nap-that is to rest for a short period in the middle of the day. They give people advice to sleep lightly before continuing with other activities. The experts say naps might improve health byreducingpressure(压力).

Some European and Latin American companies have supported(支持) the idea of napping for many year. They ask people to leave work go home and have a nap before returning. In the United States, some companies let workers rest simply in their offices. They believe this can help workers make fewer mistakes and also increase(增加)the amount of work that a person can do.

Sleep experts say it is likely that sleepy people make more mistakes at work than at other times. They say people should not carry out important tasks when they feel sleepy. And they say the best thing to do is to take a nap. About twenty minutes of rest is all you need. Experts say this provides extra energy and can increase your effectiveness(效率) until the end of the day. But experts say that a nap should last no more than twenty to thirty minutes. A longer nap will put the body into a deep sleep and waking up will be difficult.
