In today's world, many people seem to be hungry for money. Money does have this most useful effect(影响) on the poor. But even if a person has already got plenty of money, he or she can't have everything.

If money were everything, all millionaires (百万富翁) would have real love,true friendship, good health and a long life. However, this is not always correct.Since the beginning of time no three words have ever invited more pleasure than "I love you". But can love be bought? I'm afraid not. Love means to give, not to take.To every person, health and a long life are probably the best things. Well, can health and a long life be bought with money? The answer is "no".

Of all the longest living people in the world, few of them are millionaires. True friendship can't be bought, either. In a word, where money is dreamed too much, it can cause brothers to quarrel, marriage to end, loves to hate, and strangers to fight.No matter how much money you have, it is still not enough to make a happy person if you have no one to love with, no one to cry for.

Do you have the courage to stand up and tell someone if your mother is doing something dangerous?

A clever girl from New York, Anna, just nine years old, did that thing two weeks ago. The girl's mother, Diana, had been drinking heavily before driving home from the bank with Anna. Anna gave a note to a bank clerk secretly asking for help. And she was afraid and refused to get into her mother's car.

The girl waited with the bank clerk at the door of the bank, and called her father for a ride home. After her mother got into the car alone, the bank clerk called the police.

“The little girl was very smart and did the right thing.” Police Lt. Nick Loussia said. “She tried to get her mother helped, and she refused to get back in the car with her mother because her mother had been drinking.” Anna said, “I hope my mother is safe. Drunk driving is too dangerous.”

It was great that the girl could take a stand to protect herself and her mother. Thanks to her brave action, her mother finally got the help she needed.
