Health is More Important-健康的重要性-高考

     There are many people who think that wealth is better than health. I used to think so until one day I read a story about Howard Hughes. He was an American billionaire who got anything he wanted. However, in the last twenty years of his life, his health began to deteriorate and he was miserable. He had the best doctors and nurses. However, he could still find no relief. I realized that health is worth all the money in the world. If you have millions of dollars but your health is poor, you will not be able to do what you want to do. So I would like to say don't hurt yourself trying to make money. Instead take care of your body and be happy with what you do have. Health is more important.

    很多人都认为财富宫比健康更重要。在读到Howard Hughes的故事之前，我也是这么认为的。Howard Hughes是美国的一个亿万富翁，能得到他想得到的任何东西。但是在他生命最后的二十年中，他的身体变得很糟糕，他很悲惨。他有最好的医生和护士，但仍得不到解脱。我意识到在这个世界上，好的身体抵得上所有的金钱。因为即使你有百万美元但身体糟糕，也不能做你想做的事情。因此我想说的是关心你的身体，对你所拥有的一切感到高兴，不要为挣钱损害你的身体。健康更重要。

      Which is more important, health or wealth? It is a hot topic among people. I can hardly answer this question. I didn't realize that health is more imporant until I saw a businessman's real life.

     A successful businessman, one of my father's friends, devoted himseff to his business. He works from morning to night every day. There is no weekends in his mind. He often says, "I must earn much money so that I can get what I want. "Lately, he is ill. Though he has a lot of money, he can do nothing but lie in the hospital's bed.
     So I think health is more important than wealth. People can do nothing if they are always in poor health, let alone happiness. No matter we are rich or not, we can not ignore the importance of health.

    健康和财富哪个更重要?这是人们常爱谈论的一个话题。我以前回答不出这个问题，但是现在从一个商人的真实生活中我意识到健康更重要。

    我父亲的一位朋友，一个成功的商人，全身心投入到他的工作中。每天从早工作到晚，在他心目中根本没有周末的概念。他经常说：“我必须多挣钱，这样就可以想干什么就干什么。”近来，他病倒了，除了躺在医院病床上，什么也不能做。
    所以，我认为健康比财富更重要。如果一个人身体总是不好，他什么也做不成，更不用谈幸福了。不管我们贫穷还是富有，都不能忽视健康的重要性。
