　　金钱能买到幸福吗？

　　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 one's satisfaction with one's 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 shouldn't 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。
