【正文】 at are they used for? Some people may know about them. There are two kinds of taxes. One of the most important taxes is inetaxes which a person pays according to the amount of his ine. Whatever he is, he must pay tax if ine is more than a certain amount. This is called a “direct” tax, because it is paid in money directly to the government. Another tax is paid on goods. When they are brought into a country, such a tax is paid as part of the price of these goods if they are later sold in shops. We call it “indirect” tax, because it is paid indirectly through the shopkeeper. People usually plain about having to pay taxes, but they forget that the money is spent on what they need. On one hand, we need policemen and soldiers to protect us from danger. Meanwhile, we also need schools and teachers for our children. On the other hand, we need officials and workers to serve us. Above all, we need money to develop our nation. Taxes, therefore, cannot be avoided. We have no real cause to plain when we are asked to supply money to be spent for the good of ourselves and for our fellowcitizens.

But how should we spend it?First of all, we can put it in the bank to form a good habit of saving money. When we really need money, we can take it out. Secondly, we can buy some books on science or art, which can bring us more knowledge. Or, if we are interested in stamp collecting, music, or sports, we can spend our pocket money on it.We school students may make different choices on our pocket money. But never waste it just eating or playing puter games. That’s all.
