If you had billions of dollars, would you donate almost all of it to charity? Well, that’s what Mark Zuckerburg, CEO and founder of Facebook, just said he would do.

Zuckerburg and his wife Priscilla Chan promised to give 90% of their Facebook shares to society. Right now that is about ＄45 billion, and they plan to donate the money to things like science and education.

Many billionaires have done similar things. Bill Gates, creator of Microsoft, made The Giving Pledge, an activity in which billionaires promise donate more than half of their wealth to charities. This started in 2010, and now 139 people from 15 countries joined it.

But giving back and helping others isn’t just for big billionaires. People like Zuckerberg, and Gates may have more to give, but people with less are doing it, too.

Especially around the holidays, people want to do their part and give back to people who are less lucky than them. Schools may have food collections where people bring a few food items*, and together they can make a big donation to places like homeless people’s homes.

People also host special events like concerts of runs to be creative while raising money. Regular people donate whatever they can to US charities like the United Way and the American Red Cross.

Then these charities are able to help US communities in different ways like education, health and improving the lives of the poor. These individual* donations come together to make a big difference.

Everybody in this world is different from one another. But do you know that understanding differences can help you better manage your money?

As we grow up, we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs. These are influenced by society, our family, the education we receive and so on. Once this value system is set up, it's not easy to change later in life.

Financial experts say that everyone also has their own belief of how to manage their finances. This is part of our value system and it has a great impact on the way we look after our money.

According to our different values, experts put us in three categories. They are: the ant, the cricket and the snail(蜗牛).

The ant－works first

Just like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people don't care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire. The ant loves to save but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks with low risk.

The cricket－fun first

The cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesn't think too much about the future. They even borrow money when they really want something. Many young people now belong to this group. These people have little savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance.

The snail－lives under pressure

The snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big long－term loans from the bank in order to buy things such as luxury houses. They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure whether they can afford it. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully.

1.What is the meaning of value system in this passage?

A. Belief of how to manage our finances.

B. The way we look after our money.

C. Something will not change later in life.

D. A set of our own values or beliefs.

2.The ant refers to people who ________.

A. Work very hard in summer in order to store food for winter.

B. Could make more money if they worked harder

C. Save money they earn for their later life when they get old and retire

D. Only care about enjoying the moment by working very hard

3.The crickets borrow money because _________.

A. They would like to enjoy everything now

B. They are young

C. They think they have no future

D. They want to buy insurance

4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the last paragraph?

A. The snails enjoy life because they have luxury houses.

B. The snails live under pressure and they may have problems in the future.

C. The snails will take more loans if they realize that they can afford it.

D. The snails take big long-term loans because the interest for the long-term loans is low.

5.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?

A. To make fun of the three kinds of foolish people.

B. To make us understand the differences and manage our money better.

C. To make us understand we should spend our own money.

D. To state that we are the same as animals.
