life has more meaning than we usually think One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week From the way they spend their money they can see what they really value in life He says our relation with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money If he does it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn t This person may say that he has a certain feeling but if it is not carried out in the money world there is something less real about it Since money is so important to us we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important The author interviewed some millionaires for his book Question What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich because you are a self made man Answer The most surprising thing is how people give me so much respect I am nothing I don t know much All I am is rich People just have an idea of making more and more but what is it for How much do I need for given purposes in my life In his book the professor uncovered an important need in modern society to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather

friendship D is a good way to break off your friendship 38 What the American professor of philosophy wants to explain in the book is that A money is an end B money is a means C money is everything D money is unimportant 39 Which of the following might be UNACCEPTABLE to the author A Money is important in modern society B The meaning of life does not completely lie in money C Wealth will surely
