Money isn’t easy to get, but many students don’t think much about it. They might ask parents for new toys, nice clothes or expensive snacks without hesitation. What they may forget is: Where does the money come from It doesn’t grow on trees.
Most parents work hard for their money. Some get up early for work and come back late after a long day. Others do heavy or boring jobs just to make money to support the family. Every penny they make comes from their hard work.
If you waste money, you are not just throwing away paper but ignoring (忽视) your parents’ efforts. For example, buying an expensive pen but losing it soon, or ordering too much food and leaving a lot on the plate. These small acts of waste add up. When we waste, we are wasting our parents’ efforts.
Being thrifty (节约的) doesn’t mean being stingy (吝啬的). It means using money wisely. Think carefully before buying something, save for what you really need and cherish (珍爱) what you have. Let’s remember: every coin counts, and hard work should never be wasted.

Long long ago, a man had a big bag of gold (金). He was always afraid that someone would steal (偷) it, so he decided to hide (藏) it in a safe place. One evening, he went to his garden, dug a deep hole near an old oak (橡树) tree and buried (埋) the bag of gold there.
From that day on, he made it a habit to visit the spot (地点) every morning. He would dig up the gold, count the coins one by one, and then bury them again carefully. He felt satisfied just seeing the gold, even though he never used any of it.
A young worker in his house noticed his daily habit. One day, after the man left, the worker took the gold away.
The next morning, the man came as usual. When he dug up the hole, he found nothing. He was so upset that he sat on the ground and cried loudly. A neighbor passing by heard him and asked what happened. After listening to his story, the neighbor said, “Why are you so sad Just take a big stone and bury it there. It’s almost the same—you never used the gold, so a stone will give you the same feeling of having something buried.”

Wealth and happiness are two things people usually talk about. Some think having more money means being happier, but that is not always true.
Money can bring comfort. With enough money, we can buy nice food, live in a beautiful house and get good medical care when ill. These things can make us happy for a while. For example, a family with enough money to go on a trip together will surely create happy memories during the journey.
However, money has its limits (限制). Many rich people still feel lonely or worried sometimes. They may have big houses but have no one to share them with, or they might constantly (持续地) worry about losing their wealth. On the other hand, people with little money can still be happy because they have loving families and true friends.
In fact, happiness comes from many things. Qualities like kindness, health and wisdom are often more important than wealth. We need some money to cover basic needs, but we shouldn’t think it’s the only key to happiness.

Last winter holiday, my father and I went hiking in a village far from our city. We ate in a small town restaurant early in the morning. The food was great. When we paid, the waiter said, “15 pounds.” We had a twenty but no small change, and the waiter didn’t, either.
A boy at the next table smiled, “I have four five-pound notes.” Then he gave them to us. My father handed over the twenty and thanked him. After the boy knew about our hiking route, he gave us some advice and suggested taking a map and enough cash with us because we couldn’t connect our mobile phones to the internet most of the time. We thanked him again and began hiking. Thanks to the boy, we finished the hike successfully.
A stranger helping out in strange places was pretty warm. It made the day not so cold in winter.

参考范文
Hello, everyone! Today, I’d like to share how to make a weekly budget for your pocket money. It’s not as hard as you might think. Here is my experience.
First, I write down my total budget for the week. Then, I list my “needs” like school things and “wants”, such as toys and snacks. Next, I plan to spend 50% of my pocket money on “needs”, 25% on “wants” and I put away 25% in my piggy bank. Most importantly, I often check my budget and stick to it. This way, I always make sure to cover my “needs”. If I’m running short, I’ll spend less on “wants”.
A good budget helps us use money wisely and even allows you to save for something special. I hope these tips will be useful for you. Thank you!
