Recently, a professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. [26] From the way they spend their money, they often see what they really value in life.
He says our relation with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. [27] But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carded out in the money world, there is something less real about it.
People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life? In his book, the professor uncovered an important need in modem society: to bring back the idea that [28] money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.
选项
A、To test the strength of friendship.
B、To bring friends even closer.
C、To know more people who are in need.
D、To make your friends feel they are helpful.
答案
A
解析
推断题。原文提到,你也许认为你和某人拥有美妙的友谊,或者伯你认为你们是好朋友。其实只有当你向他借钱时你才会真正地了解他。故可推断,此处提到的向朋友借钱的目的是为了测试友谊,故A为正确答案。
