Directions: Wealth brings happiness. (财富带来幸福). In this part, you are to write within 40

minutes a composition of about 200 words about the “The Relationship between Wealth and

Happiness”. You can agree or disagree, completely or partially1 to the above statement. But

whatever position you take, you should give sound supporting reasons. At the end of your

composition you are required to draw your own conclusion.

 

   财富一直是有些人所渴望的对象。确实,大多数人努力通过诚实的劳动来获取财富。他

的努力对造福社会有好处,同时也促进了他们财富的积累,因此也使他们更幸福。 

   毫无疑问,尤其是在现代社会里,财富带来幸福。各种现代化的家用电器、时装和娱乐层出不穹、日新月异。这一切使我们的生活更为舒适、丰富多彩。因此,没有金钱,我们就无法把羡慕变成现实。

   但是当财富脱离了幸福,就会产生各种例外。财富可以促使意志薄弱者养成恶习,如吸毒或赌博,并导致他们自身的毁灭。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。所有这些都会产生财富的负面效应,如果我们不能正确对待财富的话。

   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。

  Wealth has always been what some people long for. It is true that most of them try to acquire wealth by means of honest labour. Their efforts contribute to the welfare of the society and at the same time to the accumulation of their wealth, and hence to their happiness.

   There is no doubt that wealth brings happiness, especially in the modern society. Various kinds of up-to-date household appliances, latest fashions and recreations make their appearance with each passing day. All this makes our life more comfortable and colourful. Therefore, without money we cannot turn admiration2 into reality.

   But there are exceptions when wealth does not go hand in hand with happiness. Wealth may tempt3 weak-willed persons to be addicted4 to harmful habits, such as drug-taking and gambling5, and result in their own ruin. Besides, a person may lose his even some government officials who take advantage of their positions to take bribes6 from the people turning to them for help. All these will bring about the negative effect of wealth if we don’t take a proper attitude to it.

   In my opinion, on no account can we identify wealth with happiness. I also believe that one should never reckon only on wealth to achieve happiness .
