Accordingly, some businesses begin to accommodate such a luxurious demand by advertising products, such as a Spring Fest

7、ival dinner, at ridiculous prices. To worsen the problem, this behavior is evoking more admiration instead of disgust.From my point of view, we are in a prime time to curb the problem from deteriorating.

For instance, most individuals realize the importance of hea

10、lth only when they get diseases, while in ordinary days they seldom cherish health. Another example would be those corrupted officials who fear losing any opportunity to make a fortune yet forgetting their own advantages. Napoleons failure is a more serious lesson in this case, because he refused to

11、 remain content of ruling such a strong country like France but craved for the whole world.As a Chinese saying goes, people can be happy if they constantly feel content.

13、rand mansions. Moreover, he is exempt from any work since he thinks his money can never be exhausted.In fact, the huge inheritance does not do him any good, but tends to undermine his vigor and passion for life. There are two reasons for this. The first and perhaps most important is that the essence

14、 of life, to most individuals, is that one struggles for independent survival. But this man is furnished with material abundance and life becomes meaningless and disoriented. The other reason is very serious from a practical point of view. A lot of people who inherit great wealth indulge in alcohol

15、and smoking, sometimes even drug addiction. It owes to their lack of holistic outlook of life and that may destroy them physically and mentally.Therefore, people should be aware that the best gift to children is not money, but an independent personality.

19、wareness of filial duty, which had taken an indispensable position in traditional Chinese values for thousands of years.However, as the society grows more benefit-oriented, the once unbroken bond between parents and children is fundamentally shaken and begins to collapse.From my point of view, the t

20、rend goes quite against the genuine and original purpose of our pursuit of wealth and welfare, that is, to shape a rich life both materially and mentally. Thinking of the love we received from our parents when swaggering babies, we must realize that repaying parents with a happy life with financial and psychological support is not only a duty that should not be shrugged off, but a key element to achieve a harmonious society.【知识模块】 短文写作
