英語四級(jí)命題作文：財(cái)富與幸福

Wealth and Happiness
　　Everybody wants to get wealthy. Today, making money or becoming wealthy symbolizes a person's success and capability. Many people try to make money at all costs. They claim that wealth can bring everything they want.
　　In my opinion, people cannot do anything without money, but money is not everything. What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life. If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, then money is a good thing to you. With it, you can do much more for the benefit of people and your country, and it will bring you happiness as well. If you want money to buy large apartments and luxury cars to keep up with others, or to pursue your materialistic enjoyment, you'll never get the true happiness and even lose some happiness you once owned.
　　In a word, money is a double-edged sword for happiness. You should have enough money spent for more people, only then can money be the source of your happiness.              (170 words)
