Money matters（金錢問題）英語作文
WHAT is the hottest topic at your school? In Hangzhou Yongjin Middle School, it’s money.
The school ran an activity called “making a living” recently. About 800 Junior 1 and Junior 2 students were divided into 112 teams. They went out to make money by selling things.
What did they choose to sell? Some sold newspapers; some chose bottled water; some sold environmentally friendly shopping bags and bamboo baskets.
A difficult start
Hu Qi’s team decided to sell educational (教育性的) books in front of the Children Activity Center. They thought parents would like to buy books for their children. But unfortunately, they came across urban management officers (城管). The officers asked them to leave.
“We played hide-and-seek (捉迷藏) with the officers for the whole morning” said Hu. “Finally we gave up and moved to other place.”
Wang Yongyi and her team sold ice cream in a square. They didn’t meet any officers. But few people were interested in what they were selling.
The team then put up a board saying the money was to help the “Project Hope” for country kids. It worked. More people came to their stall (小攤). A foreigner even gave them 100 yuan. “He didn’t want any change. He said he wanted to help the children,” said Wang. “We were touched.”
They gave the 100 yuan to the “Project Hope” office later that day.
Meng Zhaoxiang and his team were luckier. They sold all their cakes in four hours, spending 39.5 yuan and getting back 80 yuan. They made 40.5 yuan.
“It was not easy to make the money,” said Meng. “Some people just looked. Others just tasted but didn’t buy.”
Now I know how hard it is for our parents to earn the money we need to lead happy lives.”
