Teenagers make a fortune on Chinese New Year. Not only do they get red envelopes that
are stuffed with money, but they are too young to have to give any. During this time of year, stores everywhere have sales. They do this
in the hope that teenagers will
part with their new-found riches. A recent survey showed that teens like to spend money on music, DVDs, and video games most.
But this year, instead of spending your money on throwaway items, why not save it for something big like a vacation or a computer? A trip is a great way to meet new people, learn about different places or languages, and have fun. So, don't forget a camera! Besides, a trip is also a chance to discover new things about yourself and
enrich your life. A computer could be another good purchase. It plays an important role in daily life, and many teenagers have to share one with siblings. Red envelope money gives them a chance to change that by buying their own computer. However you spend your money this year, just make sure you
give it
some thought first.
青少年在農曆新年時都會發一筆財。他們不但得到塞滿錢的紅包,也因為年紀尚小而不必發紅包。在每年的這個時刻,各地的商店都有特賣活動。他們這麼做是希望青少年能花用他們剛獲得的財富。近期一份調查顯示,青少年最喜歡將錢花在音樂、DVD和電動遊戲上。
不過今年,與其把錢花在那些用過即丟的東西,何不把錢省下來用在度假或買電腦等大件物品上?一趟旅行是認識新朋友、學習不同的地方或語言、以及找樂子的絕佳方式。所以別忘了帶台相機!此外,出去旅行也能讓您有機會發現新的自己,並且豐富您的生活。買台電腦也不錯。它在日常生活中扮演著重要角色,況且很多青少年必須和兄弟姊妹共用一台電腦。壓歲錢給了他們一個機會,可以藉由買台自己的電腦來改變這一點。不論您今年怎麼花用您的壓歲錢,只要您先確實考慮過了就好。
