       British teenagers cost their parents an average (平均) of￡9,000 a year. Where does their money come
from? And what do they like to spend it on? Let's see what the two boys said.
       Emil, 15, lives with his parents, two brothers and one sister.
       Income (收入): Every week I get￡30 from my parents. I usually spend it going out with my friends.
       Expenditure (花費): I have two phones. My parents pay for one — it's￡25 a month — and I pay for the
other. If I need clothes, and I really need them, my mum will give me the money. I pay ￡6 for my hair cut.
       Tom, another boy, 17, lives with his parents. They give some extra (額外的) money when he has used up
the money he gets from a part-time job.
       Income: I've got a part-time job. I do two evenings a week and on Sundays. My monthly wage (工資) is
about￡220. If I have used up my wages, I ask for a bit of money. If I ask my dad, he gives me the money and
then I have to pay him back at the end of the month, but my mum just gives me the money and says, "All right.
Have a good time!"
       Expenditure: I usually save up my pay for the things I want. If I need a little bit of extra money, I'll ask for
it as a present. But if I want anything else that costs more, I will spend some of my wages on it. My dad pays
￡25 for my monthly phone calls. I think he pays for it because he wants me to be able to keep in touch with
them.
