A
In order to tell what I believe, I must briefly sketch something of my personal history.
The turning point of my life was my decision to give up a promising business career and study music. My parents, although sympathetic, and sharing my love of music, disapproved of it as a profession. This was understandable in view of the family background. My grandfather had taught music for nearly forty years at Springhill College in Mobile and, though much beloved and respected in the community, earned barely enough to provide for his large family. My father often said it was only the hardheaded thriftiness of my grandmother that kept the wolf at bay. As a consequence of this example in the family, the very mention of music as a profession carried with it a picture of a precarious existence with uncertain financial rewards. My parents insisted upon college instead of a conservatory of music, and to college I went.
Before my graduation form. Columbia, the family met with severe financial reverses and I felt it my duty to leave college and take a job. Thus was I launched upon a business career – which I always think of as the wasted years.
Now I do not for a moment mean to disparage business. My whole point I is that it was not for me. I went into it for money, and aside from the satisfaction of being able to help the family, money is all I got out of it. It was not enough. I felt that life was passing me by. From being merely discontented I became acutely miserable. My one ambition was to save enough to quit and go to Europe to study music. I continued to make money, and finally, bit by bit, accumulated enough to enable me to go abroad. The family being once more solvent, and my help no longer necessary, I resigned from my position and, feeling like a man released from jail, sailed for Europe. I stayed four years, worked harder than I had ever dreamed of working before and enjoyed every minute of it. I was a free man and I was doing what I loved to do.
If I had stayed in business, I might be a comparatively wealthy man today, but I do not believe I would have made a success of living. I would have given up all those intangibles, those inner satisfactions, that money can never buy, and that are too often sacrificed when a man’s primary goal is financial success. Money is a wonderful thing, but it is possible to pay too high a price on it.

In cities with rent control, they city govemment sets the maximum rent that a landlord can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that is protests people who are living in apartments. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.
Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. the federal govemment sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. The price, which in the wage that employers what decreases. Thus, critics chime, an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.
Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.
Economic theory predicts the results of economic decisions such as secessions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be correct only if “other things are equal”. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.

Possible version
It is reported that after the World Expo closes, the Luxembourg National Pavilion is likely to be moved to Wuhan. In fact, many other Chinese cities want to make themselves the home of those national pavilions. While some people are happy about this, others are worried that the move would be too expensive and would cause cities to try to keep up with the Joneses.
As for me, I warmly welcome the Luxembourg Pavilion to Wuhan. In my opinion, it would be a huge waste if it were simply to be torn down, but would not cost much to move it to Wuhan. Besides, more people would be able to visit the pavilion, a symbol of the friendship between the two countries.

W：Do you like any other sport? Like football?
M：I have no interest in ball games or any other sports. But I like all water sports. Besides sailing, surfing, in the future, I may try water skiing, windsurfing or something else.
