Ⅳ. Read the passage and complete the following tasks.
Many teenagers dream of buying something special, like a new laptop or a trip to their favourite city. But most don't know how to turn these dreams into reality. 14-year-old Lily, however, found a simple way to manage her pocket money and make her dream come true.
Lily wanted to buy a professional drawing tablet for her art class, which cost 300 yuan. Instead of spending her spare money on snacks and stickers, she decided to make a plan. First, she took three old tins and labelled them: "Savings", "Daily Expenses" and "Dream Fund". Every time she got pocket money, she divided it into the tins carefully. She also made a simple budget to track her spending and rated her progress every Sunday.
At first, it was hard to stick to the plan. Sometimes she wanted to buy a new pen, but she reminded herself of her goal. "It's exactly what I need to do to make my dream happen," she told herself. After three months, Lily opened her "Dream Fund" tin and found she had saved enough money! She was so proud of herself, and she learned that managing money isn't just about saving—it's about being patient and making smart choices.
Task 1 Choose the correct answers.

A.Her parents gave her the tins as a gift.
B.She wanted to separate her money for different goals.
C.Tins were cheaper than piggy banks.
D.She didn't have a bank account.
Task 2 Complete the mind map.
