📖 題組：
Money is an important part of life, and one should learn to manage it wisely. However, it isn’t everything. In a barren desert, a bottle of water is more valuable than a bag of gold, which is actually a burden because of its weight. On a date, a scooter can be more valuable than a BMW because a girl holding tightly to her date on the back of a scooter can have a closer bonding experience than a girl sitting in the passenger seat of a car. Most of the time, the necessity of money has been greatly exaggerated by the society. The value of money depends on the situation. It can be totally useless in one case and incomparably influential in another. The only unchangeable truth is that its utility increases when we share it—life is generous to us when we are generous to others. We can all become masters of money if we put ourselves in the right frame of mind. When we are poor, we shall ask ourselves, “Why?” There must be a reason. When we see the rich, we should become inspired: What can we learn from them? When we are with the rich, our hearts should be at peace. Be happy for them, and be thankful for your own blessings. When we are rich, a frugal yet generous life is the true sign of good character. Some pinch pennies because they have to, but a wealthy person who wastes nothing and lives a frugal life is truly someone to be admired.

思路引導 VIP
請再次觀察文章的第二段。作者在討論面對貧窮與富有時，焦點是放在『獲取利潤與商業策略』，還是放在個人的『內在修養與心態調整』呢？當一個選項提到了文章全文都沒有出現過的領域（例如：商業經營）時，這會如何影響該選項的正確性？

哼，算你還沒徹底糊塗
- 眼力還行： 哦？看來你這點眼力還是有的。這種「選非題」，最考驗你是不是會被那些花言巧語牽著鼻子走。你能不被「慷慨助事業」這種社會通則洗腦，精準找出文章裡沒提的廢話，至少證明你的批判性閱讀能力還沒完全退化，勉強合格吧。
