早上好各位来宾,老师,各位朋友。
讲话的标题,我要谈论金钱和安康。
现在你看,我们有一个社会,人们只集中在以赚钱归还房屋按揭贷款,信用卡,节假日等大片,其中大局部没有注意他们的安康逐渐下降。
对于他们的钱远远比安康更为重要。
它说:
“金钱是万恶之源。
”我同意了。
因此,现在是时候了,我们看我们的安康和自己的身体了!
谢谢您!

不同的人对于金钱持有不同的态度。
比方说,有些有钱人花钱很吝啬,而有些那么很慷慨。
有些人缺钱用但不沉迷于追求财富,而有些人那么把金钱视为一切。
在我看来,金钱对于我们是必需的,但金钱不是我们的全部。
Foronething,moneyisnecessaryforallofus.Inmodernsociety,moneyisoneoftoolsformeasurethevalueandcanbeusedtoexchangematerials.Allmaterialsweneedforourbasicexistenceisallaboutmoney.Withoutmoney,ourexistencewillbethreatenedandwecannotfindourwaytolive.Therefore,allofusneedtoearnmoneytoaffordusandourfamilybasicneeds,suchasfood,clothesandhouse.
一方面,金钱对我们来说是必需的。
在现代社会,金钱是衡量价值的工具之一,并且可以用来交换物质资料。
我们生存所必需的所有物质资料都和金钱有关。
没有金钱,我们的生存就会受到威胁,我们就没法生活。
因此,我们所有人都需要学会赚钱来提供根本的生活需求,比方食物,衣服和房子。
Foranother,moneyisnotallforus.Thoughmoneycanbeusedtoexchangeourbasicneeds,itisnotalmighty.Forexample,wecannotusemoneytobuyarealloveorabilitywithmoney.Hence,justasthesayinggoes,“moneyisgoodservantbutabadmaster”.Wecannotbecontrolledbymoneysothatwewillnotbeapatheticslaveofmoney.
另一方面,金钱不是我们的全部。
虽然金钱可以用来交换我们的根本需求,但它不是万能的。
比方说,我们用金钱买不到一段真挚的,买不到真正的能力。
因此,正如俗话所说:
“人要支配钱,不要叫钱支配人”。
我们不能被金钱所控制,这样我们才不会沦为金钱的奴隶。
Inshort,weneedmoneybutweshouldnotregardmoneyasouronlypurpose.Onlyholdthisattitudecanweuseourmoneyproperly.
简言之,我们需要金钱,但是我们不能够把金钱当做一切事情的目的。
只有持有这种态度,我们才能适当地使用金钱。
比方说,我们用金钱买不到一段真挚的爱,买不到真正的能力。
