托福写作范文之钱与朋友

　　托福写作考试中有这样的一道考题，如何看待钱与朋友?在我们生活中钱与朋友的例子比比皆是，那么在托福写作中应该如何写呢?

　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Two people can become good friends even if one of them has more money than the other.

　　Generally, I disagree with statements that two persons cannot be friends if one is richer than the other. From many TV plays and movies, we always can see that after long time of crucifixion, a poor boy and a rich girl eventually become friends. However, these fairy-tale stories only have chance to appear in fairy tale. In the reality , this will never happen because rich people and poor people have different goals of lives and different life styles.

　　To begin with, poor people and rich people have different goals of living. Even from the beginning of their lives, they undertake the different missions. Since poor people were born, their goal of living has never changed, which is leading a decent life, such as buying a spacious apartment, a nice car and having a happy family . However, rich people’ s goal of living is to continue their parents’ business. For example, poor people will talk about housing loan, but when rich people sit together, they will talk about buying which building just taken shape. So we can imagine when rich people and poor people discuss the houses, it is self-defeating for rich people and embarrassing for poor people.

　　Secondly, rich people and poor people have different ways of living. On this point, poor people will definitely repel rich people because poor people feel less confident. For example, when they finish their jobs, what poor people only can do every day is to go back homes and stay with their families, while rich people can have different choices to relax themselves. For instance, rich people can go to the golf courts to enjoy the fresh air and indulge themselves into pleasure of getting closer to the nature. Poor people can only sit in front of TV to see the soap operas.

　　Admittedly, exceptions do exist in some special aspects. Basketball player serve as good examples. In NBA, about 50 percent of players were born in slums. However, when they finally own tons of money, they still are contacting with their friends who were not rich at all. Allen Iverson is a NBA player, but he always holds the parties with his friends in slums.

　　All in all, in most cases, people with huge difference in their economic conditions cannot be friends.
