讀寫任務（共1小題，滿分25分）

閱讀下面的短文，然后按照要求寫一篇150詞左右的英語短文。

In modern society, more and more people have great pressure in their work. They have to work day and night. Some of them suffer from too much work. And some are even killed by overwork.

Which is more important, health or wealth? Some people think that wealth is more important than health. In their opinion, money is everything. “I would rather be the slave of money than the slave of people.” This is what they appreciate most. In order to earn more money, some of them spend most of the time working, running the rest of their life for wealth.

As a matter of fact, health is more important than wealth because health is the foundation of wealth. Without health, you can hardly imagine where the wealth comes from. Even if you are wealthy, how can you enjoy your wealth when you gave lost your health? In other words, wealth is based on health and wealth serves health. However, we cannot ignore wealth. Without money, we can do nothing.

Answer 1

Possible version:

                         Health or Wealth?

    The passage mainly tells us about the relationship between people’s health and wealth and discusses which is more important and how to deal with them correctly.  (27 w)

Nowadays, quite a lot of people think money is everything, so they work day and night, trying to gain, at the cost of their health, as much money as possible.

But what is the use of wealth without health?

In my opinion, we should pay more attention to our health because it’s the base of our lives. So important is it that we should not ignore it at all. If we’re in poor health, how can we work hard for wealth and enjoy wealth?

To be healthy, we mean to be both physically and mentally healthy, the latter of which, I believe, is more valuable. In short, life will never come back once we lose it. Therefore, we should try to protect and respect it with our action: try to be healthy.   (132 w)
