It’s Saturday morning. Tony’s sitting at the kitchen table, staring into space and playing with a piece of bread. He’s not even  16 . Is he ill? No, but he does have a problem. He has nothing to do because the Internet is down.
When he woke up this morning, Tony was feeling   17 . He jumped out of bed full of plans for the weekend ahead. It would be a weekend like any other great weekend. But that was  18  he turned on his computer and  19  he was unable to go online. Having no Internet changes everything.
Every weekend, Tony will go online to email friends, read the news to
20 what’s happening in the world and play a few online chess games with his cousin Helen to kill time. The perfect weekend-online.
Just as Tony is  21  how he can possibly have a normal weekend without the Internet, his mum walks into the  22 “Cheer up, Tony. Don’t think about the Internet any more, OK?” Tony makes no answer but sighs. “Go and play chess with Helen!” Tony’s mum  23   .
“Oh, yes! Helen lives just around the corner. We can meet and play chess face to face for a  24  . Maybe this weekend won’t be so bad.” Tony  25 , as he walks to the phone. There is life beyond the Internet after all (毕竟).

In today’s world many people seem to be hungry for money. Some of them even lose their lives for it. Money does have its most useful effect(影响) on the poor, but once a person has a rich life, a lot more money doesn’t mean more happiness.
If money was everything, all millionaires(百万富翁) would have true love, true friendship, good health and a long life. However, this is not always true.
Nothing else is more pleasant than the three words which are “I love you”. But can love be bought? I’m afraid not. Love means to give, not to take. To every person, health and long life are probably the most precious(宝贵的) things. Well, can health and a long life be bought with money? The answer is “No”.
Of all the longest living people in the world, few of them are millionaires. True friendship can’t be bought either. In a word, where money is worshiped(崇拜), money can cause brothers to quarrel, lovers to hate, strangers to fight and so on. No matter how much money you have, it is still not enough to make you a happy person if you have not one to laugh with, no one to cry for.
