Unit 5 The Value of Money
1
开篇页选取了弗朗西斯·培根的名言。这句话揭示了金钱的两重性:善用金钱,它可以为我们服务;当我们被金钱所迷惑,就会沦为它的奴隶。当今社会拜金主义现象依然存在,探讨对待金钱的正确态度,培养学生树立健康的金钱观,这便是本单元的主题意义所在。
Money is a good servant and a bad master.
— Francis Bacon
金钱是善仆,也是恶主。
——弗朗西斯·培根

The 45-year-old Chen was sweeping the floor at Taiyuan Railway Station early last Tuesday morning when she found a small plastic bag near a chair and discovered 100, 000 yuan inside. Chen was shocked but she was determined to return the money to its owner.

While working, Chen watched carefully for anyone who might have been the owner. She waited for over two hours, but having no luck, she went to the nearest police station to turn the money in. There, it was finally returned to its owner, Wang Zheng.

Wang thanked Chen repeatedly and apologised for the inconvenience, even offering her 5,000 yuan as a reward. To his surprise, however, Chen refused, believing that it would be wrong to accept money that she had not earned.
But what is even more surprising, perhaps, is that Chen's daughter, 16-year-old Liu Xia is currently seriously ill.
Chen had already spent the last of her savings on the ongoing treatments and has also taken out a large loan.
Fortunately, Ma Dongbao, who works at the police station, stepped in. Living in the same apartment building as Chen's family, Ma was well aware of Chen's difficulties. When Wang was told about Chen's situation, he decided to set up a fundraising website to pay for Liu's hospital bills.
Chen Liyan's example shows a different way of thinking about money. Money is important, but to people like Chen, it definitely isn't everything. And that's a great attitude to take.
