What do you usually do to get pocket money from your parents? In western countries, many children do chores to get pocket money. They usually start to do this at 10 years old.
School students have to do homework and study for tests. They don’t have a lot of free time in the week. They often do chores at the weekend.
Young kids only do easy chores. So they don’t get much money. But that’s all right. Many of them only want to buy candy. And candy is cheap! They help wash up after dinner and feed the family cat or dog.
When they get older, kids want to buy more and more things. They want things that are more expensive than candy. Then they have to work harder! They often wash the family car, cut the grass, walk the dog and cook dinner.
Some jobs are a good way for kids to learn new things. For example, they can learn to use a lawnmower(割草机) or how to cook. Of course, their parents help them at first.

Now I know that we black people are much more likely to have high blood pressure and diabetes (糖尿病) than white people. And they often lead to heart attacks and other untreated diseases. For example, black people are three to four times more likely than white people to have high blood pressure and twice as likely as the white population to die of a stroke (中风).
New research has found out the surprisingly high levels of salt in many of black people’s favorite meals. I stopped putting extra salt in my food at the table long ago and I try to cut down on the salt. I use in cooking. The suggested daily level of salt for adults is 6 grams. It is easy to see that if you try not to eat too many processed (加工过的) foods and use salt in your cooking within the limit, you won’t reach more than the daily level.
The research showed how much salt there is in some foods that we buy from restaurants and takeaways. An average salad with rice and peas has 6.2 grams of salt. This is more salt than you are supposed to eat for the whole day.
A researcher talked about the importance of home cooking rather than take-outs. At home, he pointed out, not only can you hold control of the salt bottle, but also you can create tasty food which is low on salt. The researcher later provided curry goat and rice and peas. They were low on salt, but completely delicious.
I do not suppose Jamaicans are going to stop buying takeaways soon. But if you suffer from high blood pressure, it is probably better not to buy them often.
小题1:The underlined word “they” in Paragraph 1 refers to _______.| A．white people | B．black people | | C．untreated diseases | D．high blood pressure and diabetes |
小题2:What has the new research found out according to Paragraph 2?| A．Black people take in too much salt. | | B．Black people’s meals are very special. | | C．Processed foods have too much salt in them. | | D．6 grams of salt per day is enough for an adult. |
小题3:What would the writer probably suggest black people do?| A．Order no salad in a restaurant. | B．Take in no salt for several days. | | C．Stop cooking their favorite meals. | D．Eat less takeaways. |
小题4:The researcher provided curry goat and rice and peas in order to _______.| A．thank those who came to his home for his research | | B．let people know that eating less salt makes one healthier | | C．show that tasty food with less salt can be made at home | | D．prove the less salt the food has the more delicious it is |
小题5:What would be the best title for this passage?| A．Watch the salt | B．Take care, black people | | C．Say no to takeaways | D．Say no to high blood pressure |
