W: (12) Now you’ve seen this table of figures about the pocket money children in Britain get?
M: Yes. I thought it was quite interesting, but I don’t quite understand the column entitled "Change." Can you explain what it means?
W: Well, (13)I think it means the change from the year before. I’m not a mathematician, but I assume the rise from 72p to 90p is a rise of 25%.
M: Oh, yes, I see. And the inflation rate is there for comparison.
W: Yes. (14) Why do you think the rise in pocket money is often higher than inflation?
M: I am sorry I’ve no idea. Perhaps parents in Britain are too generous.
W: Perhaps they are. But it looks as if children were a lot better off in 2001 than they were in 2002. That’s strange, isn’t it? And they seem to have been better off in 2003 than they are now. I wonder why that is.
M: Yes, I don’t understand that at all.
W: Anyway, if you had children, how much pocket money would you give them?
M: I don’t know. I think I’ll probably give them £ 2 a week.
W: Would you? And what would you expect them to do with it?
M: (15) Well, out of that, they have to buy some small personal things, but I wouldn’t expect them to save to buy their own socks, for example.
W: Yes, by the way, do most children in your country get pocket money?
M: Yeah, they do.
12. What is the table of figures about?
13. What does the column entitled "Change" mean according to the woman?
