交朋友 Make Friends

I have a friend in the tenth grade named Xiaoyong. He claims he gets a monthly allowance of 10,000 yuan.

Xiaoyong: Hey, I'm super smart.

Xiaoming: What's going on?

Xiaoyong: I've made some really useful friends with my money.

Xiaoming: What do you mean?

Xiaoyong: I treat my classmates to food and drinks, and then I ask them to do my homework.

Xiaoming: Unbelievable!

Xiaoming: How can someone be so foolish?

Xiaoyong: Why? I think I'm super smart. No one else would come up with this idea; I'm the only one in our class who can do it.

Xiaoming: There are two points to consider. First, you've given away all your practice opportunities.

Xiaoming: You've not only given up your practice opportunities but also spent money!!! That's not just foolish; that's incredibly foolish.

Xiaoming: Secondly, the people you attract with money won't be friends.

我有個8年級(國二生)朋友叫小永，他說他一個月零用錢一萬元。

小永：「嘿，我超級聰明。」

小明：「怎麼了？」

小永：「我用錢交了很多很好用的朋友。」

小明：「什麼意思？」

小永：「我請同學吃東西喝飲料，然後叫他們幫我寫功課。」

小明：「震驚！」

小明：「怎麼會有人這麼蠢！」

小永：「怎麼會？我覺得我超級聰明，別人都想不到這招，我們班只有我會。」

小明：「有兩點值得商討。首先，你把練習的機會都讓給別人了。」

小明：「你放棄了練習的機會，還花了錢！！！那不叫蠢，什麼叫蠢」

小明：「第二點是—你用花錢的方式吸引到的不會是朋友。」
