What's a day in your life like today? You go to school and do your homework, right? At home you probably do a few simple chores, like washing the dishes or making your bed. You might complain about not having enough free time to relax.
In the past, children of your age probably had a little more to complain about. Throughout much of history, many didn't go to school because they had to help all day at home or on the farm. Their parents taught them what they knew, but very few adults（成年人）could read or write. The Aztec people, who lived from 1200 to 1473 in present-day Mexico, were special. The Aztecs believed that education, or learning, was important. Every child went to school, although boys and girls learned different things.
In the nineteenth century, many people began moving into cities to find jobs . In cities there was no longer a need to have children work on the farm. So instead they began working in factories. In England many children worked long hours six days a week. And they earned（挣）as little as a penny a day-that's less than fifty cents in today' money! Children started working from a very young age, sometimes at only five or six years old. They gave all of their money to their parents to help pay for the family's needs.
Today most children go to school. Sometimes teenagers work part-time jobs to earn money. But many use that money for enjoyment, not to help their families. Think about it! Even if（即使） you work and go to school, you still have time to relax or hang out with your friends. Next to your peers（同龄人）from the past, you have it pretty easy!
54. The underlined word "they" in paragraph 2 refers to______________.
A. teachers B. children C. The Aztec people D. parents
55. According to the passage, what did children do with the money they made?
A. They bought anything they liked. B. They paid for their school's needs.
C. They helped to support their families. D. They did something to make themselves happy.
56. What can we infer（推断）from the last paragraph?
A. Today teenagers should have more to complain about.
B. Today teenagers should love their lives and complain less.
C. Today teenagers should often have a good time with their friends.
D. Today teenagers should use that money they earned to help their families.
57. The passage mainly tells us that_____________________.
A. Children's lives have changed with the development of society.
B. For the Aztec people, boys and girls learned different things at school.
C. Many children in England earned much money in the nineteenth century.
D. People were poor so they couldn't send their children to school in the past.
