Save Money by Understanding Why You Spend It
To save money, you simply need to spend less than you earn. It is easy to say, but why is' it so difficult to do？ To answer this question, you need to study the factors that keep you spending all the time.
Easy access to credit
For most people, this is the biggest reason for overspending. People can easily get a credit card, simply by filling out a short form. in a bank or jumping on their website. They can borrow money from banks to go shopping, even buy cars or houses. When you aren't physically handing someone money or a check for a purchase, you will feel you are spending free money or you aren't spending money at all. Try using cash to get your spending under control.
Misusing credit cards
A credit card is an interest free short-term loan. When used as planned, this can be a powerful financial tool. The problem is when you begin to let the balance continue from month to month. If you make a $200 purchase on your credit card and find out that at the end of the month you can't afford to repay the full amount, this is when the high interest rates on the cards really begin to hurt you. That is no way of saving money.
Giving in to temptation
We all need to enjoy life, but don't waste your financial future for a few guilty pleasures today if they aren't in your budget. When you know that you can't afford an activity, don't give in. Instead, invite your friends over for a home dinner party, game night, or some other activities where you can still enjoy time together, but without breaking your budget.

Why do people shrink？
Did you ever see the movie Honey，I shrunk the kids？ It’s about a wacky dad（who’s also a scientist）wh0 accidentally shrinks his kids with his homemade miniaturizing invention．0ops! ____（1）．
For older people，shrinking isn’t that dramatic or sudden at all． It takes place over years and may add up to only one inch or so off of their adult height（maybe a 1ittle more，maybe less）， and this kind of shrinking can’t be magically reversed，although there are things that can be done to stop it or slow it down．_____（2）．
There are a flew reasons．As people get older，they generally lose some muscle and flat from their bodies as part of the natural aging process．Gravity （the force that keeps your feet on the ground） take hold，and the bones in the spine，called vertebrae，may break down or degenerate，and start to collapse into one another_____ （3）．But perhaps the most common reason why some older people shrink is because
of osteoporosis．
0steoporosis occurs when too much spongy bone tissue（which is found inside of most bones）is broken down and not enough new bone material is made．______（4）． Bones become smaller and weaker and can easily break if someone with osteoporosis is injured． Older people—especially women，who generally have smaller and lighter bones to begin with--are more likely to develop osteoporosis．As years go by，a person with osteoporosis shrinks a little bit．
Did you know that every day you do a shrinking act？ You aren’t as tall at the end of the day as you are at the beginning．That’s because as the day goes on，water in the disks of the spine gets compressed（squeezed）due to gravity，making you just a tiny bit shorter．Don’t worry，though．_____（5）
A．They end up pressing closer together，which makes a person lose a little height and become shorter．
B．0rice you get a good night’s rest，your body recovers，and the next morning，you’re standing tall again． C．0ver time．bone is said to be lost because it’s not being replaced．
D．Luckily，there are things that people cab do to prevent shrinking．
E．The kids spend the rest of the movie as tiny people who are barely Visible while trying to get back to their normal size．
F．But why does shrinking happen at all ？
