1. Discuss the good deed of returning lost money. Before you listen, discuss these questions in pairs.
1. What do people have to buy in order to lead a good life?
In order to have a good life, people should be able to buy food, clothes, a place to live, and medical care.
2. What can people not buy with money?
The old saying that "You can't buy love" is certainly true. Money will not make people love you in a real way, nor will it build a happy family and strong friendships.
3. Is money the basis of a happy life? Why or why not?
Money is not the basis of a happy life, as many people are able to find joy in simple things of life, such as nature, their work, and their families. On the other hand, it can be quite hard to live without money, so realistically speaking, having enough money to meet the daily needs can help a person pay more attention to things that bring joy.
