工作的价值 The Value of Work

When it comes to the topic “What’s the value of work?”, different people hold different points of view.

当人们谈论到“工作的价值是什么”这个话题时，不同的人有不同的观点。A group of people think that work is just a method for living. They hope that they could spend as little as possible to earn as much money as possible. The more money they make and the less time they spend, the more value the work has. Put that in another way, the value of work is measured in terms of money.一些人认为，工作只是生存的一种手段。他们希望尽可能少花费去赚取更多的钱。花越少的精力和时间赚到越多的钱，工作就越有价值。换个说法，工作的价值是用金钱衡量的。Some think that we should work for our dreams. We do the job just because we love it. Focusing time and energy on what we love makes us fulfilling. The purpose for which we work should be making contribution to society’s development and at the same time improving ourselves.另一些人则认为，我们应该为理想而工作。我们因为喜欢而做一项工作。把时间和精力放在我们喜欢的事情上让我们感到充实。我们工作的目的应该是在为社会发展做贡献的同时提高自我。In my opinion, I agree that work is equipment. But that’s not all work of value. When choosing work, we should measure the reward and our dream. I am sure that people would put more efforts into the things they like, and someday they will get anything they deserve in return. And that’s the value of work in my mind.在我看来，我同意工作是生存的一种手段这一说法。但是，那并不是工作的全部价值。在选择工作的时候，我们应该权衡好回报和个人理想。我坚信,人们对于自己喜欢的事会付出更多的努力，而总有一天，他们会得到应有的回报。那才是我心目中工作的价值。
