Question

In today’s world many people seem to be hungry for money. Some of them even have lost their lives for it. Money does have a great effect on the poor, but if a person has a rich life, a lot more money doesn’t mean more happiness.

If money were everything, all millionaires(百萬富翁)would have true love, real friendship, health and a long life. However, this is not always true.

Nothing else is more pleasant than the three words “I love you”, but can love be bought? I’m afraid not. Love means “give”, not “ take”. Health and a long life are precious(寶貴的)things for every person. Well, can health and a long life be bought with money? The answer is “No”. Of all the people who live longest in the world, few of them are millionaires. Real friendship can’t be bought, either.

In a word, where money is worshiped, money can cause brothers to quarrel, lovers to hate, strangers to fight and so on. No matter how much money you have, it is still not enough to make you a happy person if you have no one to laugh with and no one to cry for.

【解析】

試題分析：短文大意：在當(dāng)今世界一些人為了錢甚至失去了他們的生命。錢對(duì)窮人的影響很大，但對(duì)于一個(gè)富裕的人來說，更多的錢并不意味著更多的幸福。錢重要但不是最重要的。而真正的愛情，真正的友誼，健康和長(zhǎng)壽才是重要的。
