English Year 4 Comprehension – Part 5

Practice 5

Read the letter below carefully and answer the questions that follow.

Dear Irfan,
Thank you for your previous letter which I received a few days ago. You asked about
the importance of spending wisely in your letter. Well, one of the importance is we can use
the money during emergencies. Besides that, we should learn the value of money from a
young age so we will be responsible adults in the future. Finally, it is better for us to only
spend on things that we really need. This is to prevent us from being in a situation whereby
we need to borrow from others. That would be really embarrassing!
I hope you spend your money wisely as the saying goes ‘a penny saved is a penny
earned’. I hope to hear from you soon. Take care.
From,
Katrina
