【2022年上海中考英语首字母真题速递】

Which would you rather spend your money on, an outing with friends or a pair of expensive shoes? It is my opinion that spending money on experiences brings greater happiness.

My first (71) r_______ is that experiences make us different as we grow. We are not the result of the things we've bought. Instead, we are the result of everything we've seen and done. For example, getting expensive clothes didn't (72) c_______ me as a person, but the camping trip last summer certainly did. It made me more independent.

In addition, I (73) p_______ experiences because they bring people together. Sharing a new experience develops stronger relationships and creates long-lasting memories. Three years ago I met some teenagers on a study trip and now I am (74) s_______ in touch with them, but I hardly remember what I bought during the trip.

My final point is that, although some people say it is a great (75) j_______ to own things, I think using the things you own is more pleasant. For example, I spend most of my spare money on new parts for my old mountain bike, but I love the experience of (76) c_______,not owning bike parts!

To sum up, experiences make us who we are and develop stronger relationships. So next time before you pay for something, give it some (77) s_______ thought. Ask yourself, "Which will I spend my money on, an outing or a pair of shoes?"
