要求在30分钟内,根据下面所给的题目和中文提纲用英语写出一篇不少于80词的短文。

题目1:The Digital Products

1. 如今数字化产品得到广泛的使用,例如……。

2.数字化产品的使用对人们生活所带来的影响。

Nowadays, digital products are enjoying growing popularity among people. Take me for example. The first thing J do after waking up is switch on my cell phone to check my text messages and read the latest news. Then listen to music on my iPod on my way to school. At the end of the day, I enjoy watching TV programs, or surfing the net.

Why are we so fond of those digital products? The answer is simple. They are doing us good --- making our lives comfortable and convenient. These two key factors represent the trend of new inventions of modern age that brings in the wide use of digital products.

题目2:Can Money Buy Happiness?

Can Money Buy Happiness? The answer varies among people. Some believe that money is the source of happiness, because money provides food for the hungry, medicine for the sick, and clothes for the needy. While others hold that money is the root of evils, because it is the devil of money that drives a person to lie, cheat, steal, and, worst of all, to murder.

In my opinion, money is essential to being well-off, but not necessarily to well-being. Happiness is a state of mind, not something that can be bought. All in all, happiness is less a matter of buying what we want than a wanting what we have.
