听力原文:
W: Now youve seen this table of figures about the pocket money children in Britain get?
M: Yes. I thought it was quite interesting, but I dont quite understand the column entitled change. Can you explain what it means?
W: Well, I think it means the change from the year before. I am not a mathematician, but I assume the rise from 70p to 90p is a rise of 25 percent.
M: Oh yes, I see. And the inflation rate is there for comparison.
W: Yes. why do you think the rise in pocket money is often higher than inflation?
M: I am sorry Ive no idea. Perhaps parents in Britain are too generous.
W: Perhaps they are. But it looks as if children were not better off in 2001 than they were in 2002. Thats strange, isnt it? And they seem to have been better off in 2003 than they are now. I wonder why that is.
