Answer 1

One possible version:

  In modern times, more and more parents devote their energy to their career due to fierce competition, thus caring less about their children. Many of them choose to reward their children with money for the progress they have made in their studies.

However, I don’t think this is a practical and proper way. Firstly, if the children are always rewarded with money when they get high marks, their attention will focus on money instead of the pleasure of studying. Some of them will stop working hard as soon as they get what they want. Secondly, too much money will spoil the children, for they are too young to make good use of the money. I think a hug and a kiss will work better for children than money.
