Can money buy happiness? Different people have different opinions. Some think yes, while others hold the opposite. It is true that with enough money one can buy all the things one wants, and live a life of comfort and security. However, it is equally true that lack of money causes great distress. It is a common view that "money is the root of all evil." The pursuit of money drives many people to cheat and steal. In some places there is nothing that cannot be bought with money, resulting in corrupt societies where everybody is miserable. So, money does not necessarily mean happiness. It all depends on how it is used. If we make honest and sensible use of money, it can be a stepping-stone to happiness l Although money cannot buy happiness, it can make happiness possible if it is employed sensibly.

【参考译文】

金钱能买到幸福吗?不同的人有不同的看法。有些人认为是的，而另一些人则持相反观点。的确，有了足够的钱，人们就能买到自己想要的东西，过着舒适而安全的生活。然而，同样的事实是，钱的缺乏会造成巨大的痛苦。人们普遍认为“金钱是万恶之源”，对金钱的追求驱使许多人去欺骗和偷窃。在有些地方，没有什么东西是用钱买不到的，导致了腐败的社会，每个人都很痛苦。所以，金钱并不一定意味着幸福。这完全取决于它是如何使用的。如果我们诚实而明智地使用金钱，它可以成为幸福的垫脚石。虽然金钱买不到幸福，但如果明智地使用它，它就能使幸福成为可能。

Are You Happy

Two year ago, Chinese biggest TV Channel played an interview which brought great response to the audience. The interview is about a journalist asked a worker that if he felt happy, the worker didnt react what the question is, he answered that he his name is not happy. The interview became hot, everyone was taking about it, "Are you happy" has become a greeting when people meet, they made fun of it. The reason why the interview becomes so popular is that people lack of sense of happiness today, they find a way to make fun of happiness. As the development of technology, people live in a fast-pace lifestyle, the pressure from work is so heavy that people focus too much on work, they dont have time to relax, many people bring the work issues to home, keeping busy all the time. We should find the balance between work and family life, try to enjoy life.

你幸福吗

两年以前，中国最大的电视频道播放了一条采访片子，引起了观众的巨大反应。采访是关于一位记者问一位农民工“你幸福吗?”，农民工没反应过来，他说他不叫幸福。这条采访片子很热门，大家都在谈论，“你幸福吗”成为了人们见面时的问候语，成为了一个玩笑。这条采访片子红的原因在于人们对幸福感的缺失， 他们找到了开玩笑的方式。随着科技的发展，人们生活节奏变得很快，工作的压力太大以至于工作投入过多，他们没有时间去放松，很多人把工作事情带回家，一直 工作。我们应该找到工作和家庭生活的平衡点，多享受生活。

Work and Happiness

Happiness is dependent upon work. Sometimes we complain that we have too much work, but we fail to realize that it’s our work that keep us moving on and helps us to become a better man. Last summer I visited my friends in a small village. It was obvious that working has become an indispensable part of their daily lives. They all went to the field to plant the crops. The sun was shinning above them and they looked quite happiness about their work. On their face there were such smiles as I had never seen before.

Work provide us with happiness. Work is more than a necessity for human beings. If we have no work to do, we will waste our precious time. That’s pity. We will lose everything in the end. Work helps us to realize the importance of life, then we will appreciate it more. Everybody who live in this society could not live without working. If we spend every day idly, we will find life is boring.

幸福建立在工作之上。有时候我们抱怨我们有太多的工作要做，却忽略了工作可以让人不断进步，从而成为一个更好的人。上个暑假我去一个小村庄拜访了我的朋 友。显而易见，工作已经成为了他们不可缺的一部分。他们全都到地里面种庄稼。太阳当空照，他们看起来对自己的工作很是满意。对人类来说，工作不仅仅是种必 需品。如果我们没有工作，那么，时间就会白白浪费掉。真真是可惜。最后，我们会失去所有的东西。工作帮助人们意识到生活的重要性，让我们更加珍惜。每个生 活在社会中的人都必须工作，免得就不能生存下去。如果每天都无所事事，那么，我们会发现生活很无趣。

It is an oft repeated axiom that money cannot buy happiness. While this is certainly true, poverty will not buy Happiness either. Some people become very wealthy, yet struggle to enjoy their lives. On the other hand, others manage to go through life with very few money problems simply because they are able to make the most of what they have.Ideally you should try to combine both prosperity and Happiness. To do this I recommend the following steps:

1. Learn to Value Simplicity The aim of life should not be to accumulate as many possessions and as much wealth as possible. We should learn to be content with what we have and appreciate the benefits of simplicity. For example, if we clear out our unnecessary clutter we will achieve a greater feeling of space and freedom.

If you feel happiness is directly related to material possessions, you are making a mistake. Happiness can be gained just through being content with a small amount of possessions. Our inner wealth is not just about what we have, but what we are content to live without.

2. Do Not Be Attached to Your Money Does it pain you to spend your own money - even if it is for something useful? Even someone like Bill Gates can feel uncomfortable spending his billions; it is said he used to always travel economy class because he didn’t see the need to spend more money on first class. The problem with this, however, is that if we are always reluctant to spend money we miss the whole point of earning it.

A good attitude is to see money as a circular flow - that is, spending money enables more to come into our lives. It is not like a big dam where we just try to hold onto it all. We need to let the money out by spending on useful and necessary things. It is no good having a stockpile of water unless we use it to generate power; similarly it is no use accumulating large savings if we we feel miserable spending it.

3. Minimize Money Worries We will be happiest if we can make money a small part of our lives, and think about money issues as little as possible. To be able to do this we need to avoid creating situations of debt as getting out of debt can be difficult and stressful. Learn to live within your means by avoiding impulsive overspending. If you do need to go into debt, plan ahead and find a loan which is clear and manageable to repay.

Try to avoid complicated and risky investment plans; these give you the potential to gain more, but you will also have the potential to lose a lot more. Good financial planning should be simple and well balanced; this means your nerves will not be affected by worrying about the outcome of your investment. It is better to invest and save in something secure so you can forget about it and not worry endlessly.

4. Avoid Jealousy No matter how much money you have, do you still envy people who have more? A recent survey asked people whether they would prefer to have a salary above the national average. Alternatively, they could choose to have a higher salary, but this higher salary would be lower than the average. A surprising amount of people chose to have a lower salary as long as it meant they were relatively better off than the rest of the population.

To me this makes no sense. If other people become wealthier than you, that is no reason to be unhappy. If other people are prosperous that is good; don’t feel miserable just because you cannot keep up with the Joneses.

5. Don’t Live to Work. Do you find yourself working overtime in the evenings and at the weekend? If you spend all your time working, you will have no opportunity to spend your earnings. Don’t feel guilty for turning extra work down; it is important to give leisure time as high a priority as work. It is good if we can gain satisfaction from work, but if we only spend time working then our life lacks a proper balance.

6. Understand Why Are Some People Always Poor I’m sure most people will have good friends who always seems to have money concerns. No matter what happens they always seem to be short of money and they frequently share tales of financial woe. The lack of money makes them unhappy, but they don’t know how to change the situation. Giving them money doesn’t solve the problem because they continue to make bad financial decisions.

Part of the problem lies in their mindset. It is easy to become accustomed to being poor and then half expecting the poverty to continue. With this mindset, it becomes difficult to attract money into our lives and easy to develop feelings of self pity and regret. However, while we might be unfortunate it won’t do anything to resolve the situation. The secret is to try and change our habits and approach to money. Also, be wary about trying to convert others to better financial habits - it is almost guaranteed to fail.

7. Ignorance is Not Bliss Another attitude to money is to try and avoid thinking about it. We ignore the true extent of our debts, spending and leaving unpaid bills. We frequently miss out on moving to better financial deals and make late payments which harm our credit rating. By ignoring money like this, we merely create more serious problems for the future.

Also, when we put off dealing with financial problems we carry the problem in the back of our mind. We can get no peace of mind because we permanently have a long list of things to deal with. It is better in these circumstances to promptly deal with things like paying bills and sorting out your accounts - then we can forget about them.

8. Develop A New Perspective The following are some money related questions you should ask yourself:

Am I happy with my financial situation? Would more money make my life better? Do I always have financial problems hanging over my head? Is money the most important thing in my life? Is the pursuit of money making me miserable? Would I sacrifice principles to make more money? Even just answering these questions honestly may encourage a new perspective towards money.

[生活中的幸福英文作文及翻译

《摆渡人》是刚读完的一本英国小说。

内容讲述，一个父母离异性格内向的小女孩，独自一人坐火车去见自己的父亲，火车在通过一个隧道时失事，小女孩醒来时发现自己是这场事故的唯一幸存者。她走出隧道口，和远山坡上一直望着她的小男孩一起跨越这个荒原。

事实上，小女孩是这场事故唯一的遇难者，和小男孩相遇的是她的灵魂。

小男孩就是灵魂的摆渡者，将刚刚去世的人的灵魂从荒原摆渡到另一个世界，否则逝者的灵魂将被荒原上的魔鬼吃掉从而进入地狱加入魔鬼的群体。

故事情节颇惊心动魄，在跨越荒原的日子里，小男孩一直保护小女孩两人相依为命，产生了爱情。当小女孩跨越荒原成功摆渡到另一个世界时，因留恋小男孩而找到了回到荒原的办法再次与其相见。

当然，结局也没有让读者失望，二人一起从荒原逆行回到了人间，达到了圆满。

这个故事听起来似乎和平常我们看过的穿越剧，灵异电影相似。但当你仔细品读时，字里行间透露出我们对自己人生态度的思考。

对于死亡 ：

若人死了真有灵魂的摆渡者，那么死亡或许没那么可怕，只是离开了一个现实宇宙能看见的世界到达另一个颠沛流离的世界罢了，在那里有逝去的亲人，活着的人早晚有一天也会到来，死亡只是一个空间的跨越罢了。

曾经我读过一篇文章，是一个年岁很大的老者写的，他说若万事抱着一颗好奇的心去对待，或许就能消除恐惧。有人问老者害怕死亡吗?他说曾经很怕，因为他难以想象一个人走在死亡边缘那一刻什么感受。后来他不怕了，他很好奇那一刻的到来，他会是实践者，他要知道答案。

在我的读书生涯里，也有同学的父亲或母亲离世了，伤痛的他们我们无从安慰。一个人在接受亲人的离开时会有种崩溃的感觉。若他们能将亲人的离开看做是空间的跨越，或许心灵的伤痛会有所减轻。

以前在书上看到过这样一句话，我们每个人都来自墙上的一幅画中，只是从静态的平面跨越到动态的立体空间，如果有的人离开了，TA只是回到了那副画里而已。 当我看到这句话的时候，突然觉得特别轻松，因为那一刻开始我觉得世界没有可怕的事情，一切都是我们的心态所为，如果连死亡都不怕了，世界还有更可怕的事情吗?

看过一个访谈节目，专家说这世界有太多永远解不开的秘密。比如，人死了到底有没有灵魂，到底有没有另一个世界的存在，这没有人能亲自实践过再回头告诉世人答案。所以，大可像那位老者一样保持好奇心，亦或相信还有另一个世界的存在。

对于执念：

每个人都是自己心灵的摆渡人，善恶都由自己摆渡，你选择做什么性质的人，行动和意念的支配都由你。消极的情绪，萎靡的状态，自私，凶恶，冲动，没自信等等负面的标签你可以往身上贴，最后形成一个糟糕的人这也是你自己造成的。我们有权摆渡自己的心灵，完美自信，积极向上，友善，宽容，高情商做到这些并不难，关键看你对生活的态度，你执念于什么，你将得到什么。

摆渡人的方向很广，你想要将自己的心灵摆渡到哪个河岸，你要做一个什么样的人，由你决定。

Nowadays, a lot of people in society think the more money they have the more happiness they will obtain. As a result, they will try their best to get money, even without considering the law.

现在，社会上有许多人认为，他们拥有的钱越多，他们能够得到的幸福就越多。因此他们想方设法去赚钱，甚至不顾及法律。

But in my view, the greatest happiness lies in ones satisfaction with ones surroundings. So long as we can look at things with a happy heart, we can be happy. It has nothing to do with a mount of money we have. Therefore, people shouldnt pay too much attention to their money. On the contrary, what they should do is to put their money to good use and try to have an optimistic outlook all the time.

但是，在我看来，最大的幸福在于人们对其周围环境的满意程度。只要我们拥有一个愉悦的心情，我们就会幸福。我们是否幸福和我们有多少钱并没有关系。因此，人们不应该太看重钱，相反，他们应该做的是把他们的钱用在正确的途径上并保持一个乐观的态度。

I have a happy and happy family. Family members have "good girl" I. "Shopaholics" Mom and Dad "handyman". Now, let me make the next introduction!

In our clean home, "handyman" is indispensable, he is my father. Every day when I see something in my house is broken or something is dirty, my dad always comes forward. I remember once, my lamp is broken, I hurried to find dad, after my dad looked at me, immediately brought the tools, began to repair, with a sound bite Ling clang repair after the sound, my lamp repaired! I was just going to say thank you daddy, but Dad took the rag, wiped the lamp carefully, and asked me how? I see, which is used for the lamp, just like a new, I happily ran into her fathers arms, and said: "thank you dad!" Dad smiled happily.

Looking at a full wardrobe, big and small, brightly coloured clothes, and I think "shopaholics" mother shopping scene. One day at noon, I just finished lunch, my mother took me to Xidan without demur. I asked my mother, "Why are you in such a hurry?"" Mother said, "todays Xidan sale."." We ran to the third floor, bought 3 pieces of clothes, and then bought a basket of daily necessities, when I was like a deflated balloon, just want her mother to go home, my mother just went home unhappily.

Im a "good girl" at home". Every day after school, carefully finished homework, carefully checked, every day to help mom and dad do housework. In fact, this is not my instinct, I ah, the most care of people. I remember once my mother was ill, and it happened that my father was on duty. So I decided to take care of my mother. I made a tomato egg noodle for my mother first, and then gave it to her gently. My mother was moved, and I was happy too. After eating one mouthful, the mother stroked her head and said, "well, my daughter has grown up."!" At that time my heart. The second day, under my care, mothers disease has improved. When she meets people, she says Im a good kid, and Im embarrassed.

This is our family, a happy family.

I had a very happy day yesterday. In the morning I played computer games ， that was great! And in the afternoon I went jogging alone and I listened to music. I ate a great dinner at night and went to bed early.

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.

But there are exceptions when wealth does not go hand in hand with happiness. Wealth may tempt weak-willed persons to be addicted to harmful habits, such as drug-taking and gambling, and result in their own ruin. Besides, a person may lose his even some government officials who take advantage of their positions to take bribes 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 .

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。

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。

Can Money Buy Happiness？

范文：

Can money buy happiness? Various people have various answers. Some people think that money is the source of happiness. With money, one can buy whatever he enjoys. With money, one can do whatever he likes. So, in their minds, money can bring comfort, security, and so on. Money, as they think, is the source of happiness.

But there are still a lot of others who think that money is the root of all evil. Money drives people to steal, to rob, and to break the law. A lot of people became criminals just because they were in search of money. And in the Western countries, there is nothing that cant be bought by money. Many people lose their own lives when hunting it.

I think that money is essential to life and we cannot do without money. But even though money is necessary to life, it cant buy happiness. Happiness is not something that can be measured by money. It is a state of mind. One can have plenty of money, with which he can buy whatever he wants, and at the same time he is not happy because he is never satisfied or he is troubled by various kinds of problems. Therefore, although money is necessary for a happy life, it cant buy happiness.

[英语作文：金钱是幸福之本吗

态度与幸福

As is revealed in the cartoon, a boy is contemplating(认为) the true meaning of happiness. It is indeed a tough question for him: what is happiness? Making a huge sum of money, or winning true love, or keeping good health, or what? The picture is fairly thought-provoking(发人深省), which intends to convey to us this message: Due attention should be paid to the constant topic of human—happiness.

We can easily recognize the significance of attitude in terms of happiness. On the one hand, some have suffered a great deal but generally remain happy. Take the victims of Wen Chuan earthquake as an example, they lost their families and even something more precious, but they eventually stepped out of the pain to rebuild their home. On the other hand, people who have a relatively easy and comfortable life, and yet are essentially unhappy. Without a positive attitude or the determination to find the little happiness of life, you are destined to(注定) be grievous, no matter what kind of situation you are in.

Considering all the points discussed above, it is advisable that we highly value optimism and apply it in our studies and work. We are, therefore, supposed to take a rational attitude. Happiness is an attitude, not a condition, which lies in the unswerving efforts(坚持不懈的努力) to complete one’s life.

【精彩译文】

如图所示，一个男孩沉思着“幸福”的真正含义。这对他确实是很难回答，什么是幸福呢?挣大钱，赢得真爱，永葆健康，还是其它?这个图片令人沉思，它试图传递给我们这样一个信息：我们应该适当关注人类这个永恒的话题-幸福。

我们很容易就能认识到在“幸福”这个话题中“态度”的重要性。一种情况，一些人遭受了很多，但仍然很幸福。就拿汶川地震的受害者为例，他们失去了家园，甚至是更加宝贵的东西，但最终还是走出痛苦，重建了家园。而有些人过着相对惬意舒适的生活，但一点儿都不快乐。可见，如果你没有积极乐观的态度和寻找生活中小幸福的决心，不管你身处何境，都注定是悲伤的。

综上所述，我们应该重视乐观的态度并把它应用到我们的学习和工作中。因此，我们应该有一个合理的理念：幸福是一种态度，而不是一种条件，它的实现在于通过不断地努力让自己的人生更加完美。

导语：幸福的滋味是什么?有人说:“幸福的滋味是甜蜜的。”还有人说:“幸福的滋味是快乐的。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的有关幸福的英语名人名言，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

范文

Happiness is important in our life. In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it。

I will never forget one thing. Once, I had a bad mark at a math test. I was shy and afraid to meet my parents. But when I got back home late, my parents knew what happened, they said to me: “It doesn’t matter, my child. Remember we’ll be always beside you when you need help.
