I like to make purchase, since I start to shop online, I will buy things once I like, I just can’t control my desire. As for my mother, she is not like me, she barely goes shopping, she buys clothes once a year. I think my mother is over thrifty, she thinks me waste a lot of money. We have different views of consumption, both of us don’t make the reasonable consumption.

我喜歡購(gòu)物，打從我開(kāi)始網(wǎng)上購(gòu)物，一旦看到喜歡的東西就買，我就是無(wú)法控制自己的欲望。對(duì)于我媽媽來(lái)說(shuō)，她不像我，她幾乎不購(gòu)物，每年只買一次衣服。我覺(jué)得媽媽過(guò)度節(jié)儉，她卻覺(jué)得我浪費(fèi)很多錢。我們對(duì)消費(fèi)有不同的看法，都沒(méi)有合理消費(fèi)的觀念。

For the old generation, they have experienced war and hunger, so they cherish what they have and are very easy to be satisfied with the things they have, they won’t spend the money to have fun, because they think it is wasteful. In my opinion, we are in the modern society, we have lived the better life and should learn to enjoy the moment. There is no need to save all the money and do nothing.

對(duì)于老一代來(lái)講，他們經(jīng)歷過(guò)戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)和饑餓，因此他們珍惜所擁有的，很容易滿足，不會(huì)花錢去尋找?jiàn)蕵?lè)，因?yàn)樗麄冇X(jué)得這很浪費(fèi)。在我看來(lái)，我們現(xiàn)在是處在現(xiàn)代社會(huì)，過(guò)上了更好的生活，應(yīng)該學(xué)著去享受此刻。沒(méi)有必要把錢都存起來(lái)，什么都不花。

For the young people, they like to spend tomorrow’s money, they don’t save the money because they spend all their salary, they like to go shopping and buy what they want. It is not right to spend all the money, we need to save part of it just in case of the emergent situation.

對(duì)于年輕人來(lái)說(shuō)，他們喜歡花明天的錢，沒(méi)有存錢，因此他們花光了所有的薪水，喜歡購(gòu)物，買自己想要的。花光所有的錢是不對(duì)的，我們需要把一部分存起來(lái)，以防緊急情況。
