the advantages of saving money
 
everyone must work to live, but many people are fortunate enough to make more money than they immediately need. what should they do with this extra income? while it is tempting for people to spend it all on things they desire, i believe it is better to save at least a portion of the extra income for the future.
by saving money, people give themselves more security. they cannot predict the future; perhaps one day they will be jobless. at a time like this their savings can spare them a great deal of suffering and help to see them through the hard time. in addition, saving money allows people to build up a larger sum. they can then buy something more worthwhile than the small things they can but if they spend the money right away. for example, they may be able to buy a house with their savings. finally, he practice of saving helps people develop the habit of setting goals and planning for their future. in this way they are bound to lead more meaningful and successful lives.
most people would like to enjoy their money immediately. nobody likes to wait for the things that he wants. however, if we learn to save our money, we can gain more advantages in the future. we will lead more secure and, thus, happier lives. we will also be able to buy the things we truly want but cannot afford right now.

存钱的好处
 
每个人都必须工作以求生存,但是有许多人很幸运,能够赚得比他们立即需要的还要多的钱。他们应该如何处理这些额外的收入呢?尽管把钱全花在自己想买的东西上是很诱人的,但我认为最好至少把一部分的额外收入存起来,以备将来之需。
通过存钱,人们能获得更多的安全感。未来是无法预测的,或许有一天我们会失业。碰到像这样的情况,存款可以让我们免去许多痛苦,帮助我们渡过难关。此外,存钱可以使人积累较多的钱,可以用于买更有价值的东西,比马上把钱花掉所能买到的东西更有用。例如,我们可以用存款买房子。最后,存钱能帮助我们培养设定目标及为未来作计划的习惯。如此一来,我们一定会过着更有意义并且更成功的生活。
大部分的人会想要马上享用手边的钱。没有人想等到以后再买想要的东西。然而,如果我们学会存钱,未来可以获得更多的好处。我们将过着更有安全感而且更快乐的生活。我们也能购买我们真正想要但现在无法负担的东西。

老外用中式英语PK标准英语 在各个英语学习论坛上,经常可以看到有关chinglish(中式英语)的文章,但一般都是中国人写的。不过我看到一篇长文,也是有关chinglish的,但却是美国人写的,很有意思。这篇长文的标题是chinglish2english(从中式英语到标准英语),作者是浙江大学的美国外教chuckallanson,内容则是chuck在中国五年任教期间所听到、所看到的各种chinglish说法。    比如chuck第一次来中国,下飞机后,负责接待他的东北某大学英语系陈老师说:您刚到,我们吃点饭吧。我们要点chinesedumpling(饺子)和chinesebeancurd(豆腐),您看可以吗?chuck以前从未听说过这两种东西,但出于好奇,就说可以,结果饭菜端上来一看,原来就是ravioli(饺子,来自意大利语)和tofu(豆腐,来自日语)。chuck当时心里暗想,这两种东西,国际上早已经有通用的说法(ravioli和tofu),他们中国人为什么还要用那种生僻的说法呢?以后chuck跟陈先生混熟了,就问他,当初你为什么不说ravioli和tofu呢?陈先生听了大吃一惊,连忙解释说,我真的不知道这两个词,而且我们的《英汉词典》上也没有这两个词。  于是chuck开始意识到,中国的英语教师、英语课本、甚至英语词典肯定存在问题,否则不可能发生这种事情。在中国五年的任教期间,chuck收集了大量的chinglish说法,从中挑选出一组最常见的,编写了上面提到的那篇长文。下面就是这些chinglish说法,其中每行第一部分是汉语说法,第二部分是chinglish说法,第三部分则是英语的标准说法。  ①欢迎你到...②welcomeyouto...③welcometo...  ①永远记住你②rememberyouforever③alwaysrememberyou(没有人能活到forever)  ①祝你有个...②wishyouhavea...③iwishyoua...  ①给你②giveyou③hereyouare  ①很喜欢...②verylike...③like...verymuch  ①黄头发②yellowhair③blond/blonde(西方人没有yellowhair的说法)  ①厕所②wc③mensroom/womensroom/restroom  ①真遗憾②itsapity③thatstoobad/itsashame(itsapity说法太老)  ①裤子②trousers③pants/slacks/jeans  ①修理②mend③fix/repair  ①入口②wayin③entrance  ①出口②wayout③exit(wayout在口语中是crazy的意思)  ①勤奋②diligent③hardworking/studious/conscientious  ①应该②should③must/shall  ①火锅②chafingdish③hotpot  ①大厦②mansion③center/plaza  ①马马虎虎②so-so③average/fair/allright/nottoobad/ok(西方人很少使用so-so)  ①好吃②delicious③good/nice/tasty/appetizing(delicious在中国被滥用)  ①尽我最大努力②trymybest③try/strive(try的本意就是trymybest)  ①有名②famous③well-known/renowned/legendary/popular(famous在中国被滥用)  ①滑稽②humorous③funny/witty/amusing/entertaining  ①欺骗②tocheat③totrick/toplayajokeon/tocon/todeceive/toripoff  ①车门②thedoorofthecar③thecarsdoor  ①怎么拼?②howtospell?③howdoyouspell?  ①再见②bye-bye③bye/seeyou/seeyoulater/later(bye-bye有些孩子气)  ①玩②play③goto/do(play在中国被滥用)  ①面条②noodles③pasta(noodles有些孩子气)  ①据说②itissaid③iheard/iread/iwastold  ①等等②andsoon③etc.  ①直到现在②tillnow③recently/lately/thusfar  ①农民②peasant③farmer  ①宣传②propaganda③information
