I think that money is essential to life and we cannot do without money. But even though money is necessary to life, it can’t buy happiness. Happiness is not something that can be measured by money. It is a state of mind. One can have plenty of money, with which he can buy whatever he wants, and at the same time he is not happy because he is never satisfied or he is troubled by various kinds of problems. Therefore, although money is necessary for a happy life, it can’t buy happiness.
Q:
1.金钱很重要,但金钱绝不是一切.有许多东西是我们用金钱买不到的.金钱值多少钱?健康,
真爱,智慧,它们又值多少?我敢打赌没有人能说得出来,因为它们是无价的.多少钱也无法买
到时间,健康,真爱和智慧.这样,你还会认为金钱就是一切吗?
Money is something. But money is not everything. There are many precious things that we can’t buy with money. How much does time cost?And how much is health? True love? Wisdom? I bet no one knows. They are priceless. Money can buy none of them. So would you still think that money is everything?
2.Money can buy a position, but can you buy respect? Money can buy blood, but can you buy life? Money can buy companions, but can you buy friends? Money can buy sex, but can you but love? If money can buy happiness, can you tell me why we can not buy them?
3.钱,一个所有人都在追求的东西。过去人们常说:有了钱就等于有了一切。
但是有了钱真的就可以得到一切吗?我并不这样想。钱确实很重要,可是钱并不是万能的。我们可以设想一下,如果我们被放在一个荒岛上,没有食物,没有交通,没有通讯,没有人群,没有一切。在此时此刻你还需要支票吗?
Money is pursued by everyone. In the past people always said that if you have money, you have everything. But is it true? I don't think so. Money is important, but not omnipotent. We can imagine: we are trapped in a desolate island. No food, no
transportation, no communication, no people, nothing is there. In this moment,do you think you really need a check ?
4. There is an old saying goes that “Time is gold and it is difficult for one to use gold to get time”.It’s absolutely right.Time goes by without our noticing.Yesterday had become histroy,it’s beyond redemption. Time and tide wait for no man. How can money buy youth and the young age?
一寸光阴一寸金,寸金难买寸光阴。这句话讲得好。时光总在你不经意的时侯悄悄滑过。昨天,已成为历史,成为过去,你想挽回,是不可能的。岁月催人老,难道金钱能买回青春,能买回年轻吗?
Happiness lies in private, and wealth is nothing to do.
此外,如果一个人一心追求财富并沉溺于奢侈的生活,他就会失去理智、误入岐途。例如, 甚至还有一些政府官员利用他们的职位向求助者索贿。显然,如果我们不能正确对待财富的话,它也可能给我们带来灾难。依我看, 无论如何我们也不能把财富和幸福等同起来。我还认为人们永远也不应该只依仗财富去获得幸福。
Besides, a person may lose his reason and go astray if he intends only to seek wealth and indulges himself in leading a luxurious life. For example,there are some government officials who take advantage of their positions to take bribes from the people turning to th em forhelp. Obviously, wealth may bring us disasters if we don’t take a proper attitude to it.In my opinion, on no account can we equate happiness with wealth. I also believe that one should never reckon only on wealth to achieve happiness.
