My pocket money
I have many ways to earn my pocket money. If I'm good at home, I get $2 from my dad. If I study well, I get $5 reward (奖励).
I also earn my pocket money by doing chores. I get a dime (一角硬币) for cleaning the table and a quarter (两角五分硬币) for washing dishes. If I throw out the trash, I get a nickel (五分硬币). Sometimes, my mom and dad ask me to do chores byraising the money. But I'm too lazy, so I say, "No thanks, I don't need anymore money right now."
I like to save (存) money, but I also enjoy spending it. I use my pocket money to buy presents for dad, mom, friends, teachers and myself.
