Agree
1.It is good for Henry Adams
because it can change his life from
a poor man to a rich man.

1.It will get him into trouble
because other people may think the

2.He will get lost in the vain glory
(虚荣心)taken by the bank note.
3.He will become greedy,selfish
and indifferent after enjoying the
comfortable life and the
convenience given by the bank note
