  幸福与金钱

  The picture above tries to arouse our consideration about the relationship between wealth and happiness. In the first picture, a man is standing at the summit of a mountain named high salary; in the second picture, a magnate is imprisoned in a diamond cage. It seems that after accumulating a large fortune, they are both left at a loss.

  The picture reflects a social trend that in today’s society fueled by money and power, many people tend to equate money with happiness. Under such circumstances, it’s of great importance to explore the relationship between wealth and happiness. In the first place, we are living in a world where the idea that one can lead a good life without money is an illusion. So, to correlate the wealth and happiness is justified in a sense. In the second place, the equation of the money and happiness is dangerous, because this notion may not only lead us to forget many elements necessary to constitute a happy life, such as love, friendship, health, family and so on, but may also result in bad habits, such as drug-taking and gambling.

  In my opinion, we should never base our happiness on money, and should understand the definition of happiness. Rather than identifying money and happiness, we should regard happiness as a process in which we conquer hardship, we share joy with our friend, we enjoy the progress we achieve after an arduous journey, and at last, we gain mental satisfaction that cannot be purchased. Accordingly, we should bear in mind that only when we know what happiness is can we not only get joy, but also have a better life.

  (Undoubtedly, this view is questionable, and it’s necessary to analyse the consequences if we establish this equation.)

  (Happiness is more than joy without striving. Rather than equating the happiness with money, we should enjoy the process in which we obtain success, even if there are many difficulties in the way. Only when we know what happiness is and how we can lead a good life can we not only get happiness, but also have a better life.)

  读书

  As is shown in the picture, a candle with a book in hand is beaming brightly. On the face of it, it is a common cartoon because all candles radiate light after ignited, but the caption in the picture reminds us that it’s the knowledge learned from the book that makes the candle smile and shine.

  Clearly, the purpose of the picture is to show us the importance and benefit of reading, and to call on us to read more books. Undoubtedly, via reading, we can not only learn what mankind has achieved, but can also be greatly inspired to develop and innovate on the basis of existing knowledge, not to mention the encouragement and enlightenment provided by books which can be our guide in life. However, in today’s society fueled by money and power, many people dismiss reading classics and literature as useless or outdated, and take the accumulating money as their primary objective of life. However, those people holding this opinion will unavoidably miss much enjoyment, and their development may be hindered by their lack of knowledge.

  In my opinion, a fulfilling life is based on extensive knowledge, and knowledge can be derived only when we are devoted to reading. So, what’s the most important is that teachers, parents and media should join their efforts to help children recognize the importance of reading. We should bear in mind that only when reading becomes a habit shared by all of us can we have a bright future, and can we have a fulfilling life.

  (The importance of reading can be proven in the academic field, where new discoveries depend on researchers’ knowledge reserve and reading extent. A prime example to support my point is Max Horkheimer, a famous sociologist and philosopher last century. It’s inconceivable that he could write Culture Industry, a classic in which he criticizes the capitalist culture, without reading extensively. So, it’s my view that reading is of the utmost importance for people’s development.)
