The methods of practicing economy (实行节俭) are very simple. 1______ That is the first rule. A part
should always be set apart for the future. The person who spends more than he earns, is a fool.
The next rule is to pay necessary money. 2______ The person who spends more than he earns tends to
get cheated; and if he often does so, he will easily get dishonest.
Another method of economy is, to keep a regular account of all that you earn. An orderly man will know
beforehand what he requires, and will be provided with the necessary means for getting it. Thus his budget
will be balanced. 3______
It is difficult to fix the limits of economy. Bacon says that if a man would live well within his income, he
ought not to spend more than one half, and save the rest. This is perhaps too exact. He himself didn't follow
his own advice. That depends on circumstances.
Wherever there is a large family, the more money that is put to one side and saved, the better. Economy
is necessary to the rich, as well as to the comparatively poor man. 4______ If he spends all that he earns, he
can help nobody. He cannot properly educate his children, nor put them in the way of starting fairly in the
business of life?
Saved money, however little, will serve to dry up many a tear; will avoid many sorrows and heart burnings, which otherwise might damage us. 5______

B. Spend less than you earn.
C. Without economy, a man cannot be generous.
D. And his expense will be kept within his income.
E. You can not expect anyone help you economically.
