2 If you were given 1,000 yuan, how much money would you put in each jar Give your reasons.
I will put half of the money in the Saving jar, 200 yuan in the Investing jar, 200 yuan in the Spending jar and 100 yuan in the Giving jar. I must save a lot of money for my future, including the money for my future education. I need to invest in myself, such as buying online courses and going to the gym. Besides, I need money to buy books, pay telephone bills and so on. I also intend to show my concern for those in need, so I will put aside some money to give others when it is needed.

Writing a reflection
Read the story and answer the questions.
There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence.
The first day, the boy hammered so many nails into the fence that his father had to give him a whole new bag. Over the next few weeks, as he learnt to control his anger, he hammered fewer and fewer nails into the fence each day. He had learnt that it was easier to hold his temper than to hammer nails into the fence. Finally, the day came when the boy didn’t lose his temper all day, not even once. He told his father, who said that now the boy should pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper.
The days passed by and the boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone. The father took his son and led him to the fence. He said, “You’ve done well, son, but look at all the holes in the fence! That fence will never be the same. When you say something in anger, it leaves a hole in someone’s heart, just like your nails have left holes in the fence. It doesn’t matter how many times you say sorry. The hole is still there.”

2 What message do you think the story conveys
Controlling one’s temper.
As far as I’m concerned, you can control your temper so long as you try. What’s more, the words you say in anger will definitely hurt others’ feelings, no matter what you do after that to make up for your mistake.
Writing a reflection
Read the story and answer the questions.
1　What aspect of self-management is the passage about
2　What message do you think the story conveys
The passage is about how to control one’s own temper.
Make notes about the story.
Summary of the story:
My thoughts:
Conclusion:
Now write your reflection.
One possible version:
Once there was a boy with a bad temper. His dad told him to hammer a nail into the fence every time he lost his temper. The boy learnt to control his temper because it was easier than hammering the nails into the fence. Then his dad asked him to pull one nail out every time he was able to hold his temper. When the boy pulled out all the nails, his dad showed him the holes in the fence, telling him his anger had left “scars” that would never heal, like the holes in the fence.
According to the story, it is important to learn how to control your temper so that you do not do or say anything that will hurt other people. So how can we control our temper First, we can talk to someone we trust about how we feel. This is a good way of letting our anger out without hurting others. Second, we can go outdoors and play team sports with our friends, because physical exercise provides an effective way to calm down. Third, we can shift our attention to other things such as reading a book or watching a film. Focusing on something else helps us to forget our anger.
If we keep calm and stay optimistic, we can take control over our temper, which will benefit us throughout life.
