Usually, you are allowed to pay part of it. Let’s say you pay $ 10 the first month. Now the credit card company begins to get money from you. They charge extra money,called interest(利息), on whatever part of the money you didn't pay.Now the $ 35 you still have on your bill begins to grow. Even if you don't buy anything more, by the time you get your bill the following month, you will have more than 35 to need paying back. And every day, interest keeps adding up. 3But the good news is that a credit card is convenient. 4 . Besides, the credit card companies also offer extra services. For example, if something you bought online with your card stops working in a short time, the company may give your money back.5 . They spend more money than they can afford to pay back. Knowing how to use credit wisely will be necessary and help you to be a smart shopper.A. It is sometimes the only way to pay when you shop over the Internet.B. So actually those jeans will end up costing you more than $45.C. Using a credit card is a way of borrowing money to buy things.D. Some people get themselves in trouble with credit cards.E. If you pay the whole 45 dollars back right away, it won't cost you anything.。
