众说纷纭话金钱

自从金钱诞生的那刻起，人们就对它评说纷纭，褒贬不一。从古至今，围绕着金钱，又上演了多少震撼人心的喜怒哀乐、悲欢离合、情仇杀伐的悲喜剧啊。因此，对于这样的话题，每一个人都应该是十分熟悉的，也是有话可说的。

Since the birth of money, people have different opinions on it. From ancient times to now, around money, how many shocking tragicomedes have been staged, such as anger, sorrow, separation and reunion, love and hatred. Therefore, for such a topic, everyone should be very familiar with it and have something to say.

但是，要想写好这一话题，而且要能够获得阅卷老师的青睐，那就非下一番工夫不可。从题目的材料和导语来看，话题的范围是非常宽泛而深刻的。材料中所引用的老百姓和哲人的论述，分别从两个极端形象生动地阐明了的金钱意义、作用以及弊端，而“无论”所领起的总括句，更是简洁深刻地阐明了金钱的历史作用和意义。不仅如此，材料和导语还联系人们的平常生活，让人们从历史的高度以及现实的层面去冷静思考、认真审视金钱的缘起、意义和作用。

However, if you want to write this topic well and get the favor of the teachers, you have to work hard. From the material and introduction of the topic, the scope of the topic is very broad and profound. The discussion of common people and philosophers quoted in the materials vividly illustrates the meaning, function and malpractice of money from two extremes respectively, and the general sentence led by "no matter" is more concise and profound to clarify the historical role and significance of money. Not only that, the materials and the introduction are also related to people's daily life, so that people can think calmly and carefully about the origin, significance and role of money from the historical and realistic level.

我们都知道，在古代，人们常常把“农”与“商”、“义”和“利”对立起来，古人把农比作“本”，把商比作“末”，意思是农业象树的根，商业像树的梢。狭隘地认为只有农业才能利国利民，而搞商业则是不务正业，有失根本。好像说农有理，谈商有罪。一谈到金钱，人们常常把“权”与“名”、“义”与“利”联系，认为一旦有权就必然谋利，一旦出名就一定重利。钱中没有“义”的成分，不含“义”的高贵，似乎有了钱就失了“义”。

We all know that in ancient times, people often opposed "agriculture" to "commerce", "righteousness" and "profit". The ancients compared agriculture to "origin" and commerce to "end", which means that agriculture is like the root of a tree and commerce is like the tip of a tree. The narrow view is that only agriculture can benefit the country and the people, while doing business is not doing business. It seems that agriculture is reasonable and commerce is guilty. When it comes to money, people often associate "power" with "name", "righteousness" and "profit". They think that once they have power, they will inevitably seek profit, and once they are famous, they will definitely make profit. There is no element of "righteousness" in money, and there is no nobleness of "righteousness". It seems that with money, there is no "righteousness".

今天，在改革开放的大潮中，我们更加清楚地看到了金钱的力量，也更进一步认识了金钱对于人们的负面影响。但是，我们切不可忽略了新时代所涌现出的数不胜数的与金钱有关高尚行动，如希望工程、爱心赞助、慈善捐款等等。我们要正确认识金钱的“品性”，切不能片面地认为“为富”就会“不仁”。要懂得金钱是物质，它不是人类的唯一需求，只有精神的东西才是人类永远追求的最高境界，要让金钱为我们所用，为人类造福。要了解金钱的历史，善于去发现、赞颂由金钱上演的感人故事。

Today, in the tide of reform and opening up, we have seen the power of money more clearly, and we have further understood the negative impact of money on people. However, we must not neglect the numerous noble actions related to money emerging in the new era, such as hope project, love sponsorship, charity donation, etc. If we want to understand the "character" of money correctly, we must not think that "being rich" will lead to "inhumanity". We should understand that money is material, it is not the only demand of human beings, only spiritual things are the highest realm that human beings will always pursue, and we should make money for our use and benefit. We should understand the history of money and be good at discovering and praising the touching stories staged by money.
