At present some people think that money is everything. They say that you can do everything if you have money. You can live in a beautiful house, keep a luxurious ear and have all sorts of delicious food.

I don't think so. Indeed, money can buy a lot of things we need. But there are many, many wonderful things in the world that cannot be bough/; with money.

For example, knowledge cannot be bought with money. One cannot be rich in knowledge unless he studies hard. Time cannot be bought with money, either. Who can buy even a second with money?

There are still many other things that cannot be bought with money: health,life, happiness,friendship, love and so on. Just think, if a person hasn't these things at all, is the money still useful?

Now, do you think money is everything?

近来，有些人认为钱就是一切，他们说，要是有了钱，你就可以做任何事情，你可以住舒适的房子，坐豪华的轿车，吃可口的饭菜。

我不这么认为。的确，钱可以买到我们需要的许多东西，但是，世界上还有许多美丽的东西用钱是买不到的。

例如，知识是买不来的，一个人要想获得丰富的知识，只有通过艰苦的学习。时间用钱也是买不来的，谁能用钱买来哪怕一秒钟的时间呢?

还有很多东西是钱买不到的，比如健康、生命、快乐、友谊、爱情等等，试想，一个人要是连这些东西都没有，那光有钱又有什么用呢?

现在，你还认为钱就是一切吗?
