Discuss & Writing
Mary, 30-year-old, lives in Shanghai. As a member of the “hand-chopping mafia” (剁手党)，she is crazy about buying stuff. At one time, she owned more than 400 items of clothing, shoes and handbags. However, these stuff become a economic burden in that her salary cannot cover (够支付) her monthly credit card bills. In her view, these fashionable clothes and expensive handbags can help her win people’s recognition and attention.
Discuss:
1.Do you agree with Mary’s lifestyle? Why?
2.If Mary want to lead a simple life, what should she do?
Write down your opinions.
Show Time
One possible version:
I am against Mary’s lifestyle. For one thing, Mary’s behaviour of over consumption is not healthy. For another, it is unwise to attain others’ recognition by owing unaffordable luxuries(奢侈品) .
If Mary wants to lead a simple life, three measures should be taken in a gesture to promote a minimalist lifestyle. First and foremost, Mary should tidy up her closet by getting rid of unnecessary purchases.What’s more, Mary should stop unreasonable consumption and learn to spend her money on more meaningful experience like short holidays to relieve her stress and anxiety from work. Last but not the least, Mary should transfer her focus from shallow materialism to her own deeper heart. In a word, she should invest time and money into her own self growth.
