(FREE) within the union. In 2002, the (NATION) currencies were
(PLACE) with a single currency, the Euro. In the 21st century the
(ENLARGE) of the EU eastward welcomed 10 former Communist countries. The EU describes
(IT) as a family of democratic European countries , (COMMIT) to
working together for peace and
(PROSPER). It promotes the integration of Europe through: a common currency the freedom of
(MOVE) between member states. trading markets (WITH) borders a common foreign policy
The institutions of the EU form the framework of
(COOPERATE) between the 28
member states. The European Commission engages in the day-today work of (RUN) the EU. It is the
(LEGISLATION) body of the union. Its commissioners are appointed by the Council of Ministers , in

Giving children money is a common form of
(MOTIVATE) used by parents with high
(EXPECT) to make their children work harder for exams. Some youngsters receive
(PAY) as high as €100 for each A grade they get at their final exams. But should such rewards be based on exam

(RECOGNIZE) of a child's efforts , (REGARD) of the results?

(ABLE) . Imagine , for example , a family with one child who is

related rewards for the second child are clear; with little chance of obtaining higher grades , the withholding of promised
(FINANCE) rewards would only (STRONG) the child's feeling of (FAIL).

(PSYCHOLOGY) believe that parents should rely on their own
(JUDGE) in such matters. They say that if parents feel that money will motivate
their child , then they should not be condemned for operating a system of cash payouts.
