To Curb Spending

【话题分析】

大学生消费是目前家长及教育界比较关注的问题，它所反应的不仅仅是花钱这一表面现象，而是隐藏在这一现象之后的大学生的价值观、金钱观等思想层面的问题。

【范文解析】

Nowadays the campus students seem to have no idea of how money comes from, and not to care about their expenditure. They buy whatever they like for themselves, also for their friends, paying no attention to how much these things cost.

Some people say that it is not a problem for college students to spend much. After all, the society is progressing and the life is being enriched. With the living standard being raised, it is reasonable to improve the expenditure of students. There is nothing to blame.

For me, it is not just a habit of spending more money; it is a reflection of students' outlook on money and value. The students get money from their parents so easily that they have no idea of earning money with their hard work and effort, thus developing an awareness that they want to get things but are unwilling to work hard for their goal. Definitely, that is harmful. The campus students can improve their lives, but with the money earned by themselves.

第一段讲述了这一现象，大学生喜欢什么买什么，从不关注钱从何处来，也不关心自己的花销。

第二段提出了一些人的看法，他们认为社会进步了，生活水平提高了，大学生多花一点也无可厚非。

第三段讲述了作者自己的观点看法。在作者看来，这并不仅仅是花钱习惯，更多地反映了学生的金钱观、价值观。学生从父母那里很容易就能要来钱，所以他们就不会想通过自己的努力来赚钱，渐渐就会培养这样一种想法：希望不劳而获。最后作者强调，学生提高自己的生活水平并没有什么不对，但要用自己赚来的钱。
