131. Only people who earn a lot of money are successful?
Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Only people who earn a lot of money are
successful. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
『分析』
不能同意。Only是修饰词。
确实，往往成功的一个表象是金钱的多少。
钱不是衡量成功的的标准。黑社会分子(members of criminal syndicate)、一些黑心的商人
(evil-minded businessman)。
有些职业收入远不如其他行业，比如，我国的教师，护士。
成功的定义更应该基于社会贡献：甘地(Gandhi)就身无分文(without a cash in his pocket)；特蕾莎修女
(Mother Theresa )也是好例子。
『范文』
China is host to over one billion people. While the majority of China's population is not rich; in fact, it is a very
small percentage of people who hold the status of being wealthy. Does this mean that the vast majority of Chinese
people are unsuccessful? The answer to this is irrefutably "no".
There are many measures of success, and money is one of them. However, money is far from the main
measure of success. To prove this point, one need only consider the possibility that a man could be wealthy beyond
belief, but not consider himself successful. Perhaps he inherited his money, and has done nothing of value in his
life. Perhaps he earned the money through ill means. Whatever the situation, it is more than possible that a rich man
could be considered unsuccessful, either by himself, or by others.
Many people believe that the main measure of success is happiness, rather than material goods. Without
happiness, even a person with money, status and children would not be successful. However, a low paid
schoolteacher might think he/she was very successful if he/she succeeded in getting children to learn their material
well. Or perhaps a housewife, who makes no money of her own, would feel successful if she raised a healthy,
well-adjusted child and kept her home looking wonderful.
It is also important to look at the difference between self-perceived success and one's success in the eyes of
another person. Perhaps the outside world views a man as unsuccessful if he does not have a lot of money, but he
views himself as very successful because of his achievements in life. Whose opinion is more important? I believe
that if one thinks he/she is successful, then he/she is, no matter what other people say.
In conclusion, money is not the only measure of success. Anyone can be successful, whether they are rich or
poor. What matters is how one views himself/herself; if one is proud of one's achievements in life, and feels that
he/she has lived a fulfilling life, then he/she is successful.
