  My brother, Henry, has a very good job at a bank. I couldn't believe him when he told me that he had decided to leave there. I tried to make him change his mind, but I failed. “You should reconsider your decision (决定),” I said. “You have already spent five years in the bank and you could have a wonderful future (将来). You might become a bank manager (经理) by the time you are thirty-five.”

  “I know,” Henry answered. “I have got no complaints (抱怨) with the bank. It is a pleasant job. The bank manager told me that my future was excellent (杰出的).”

  “Then why do you want to leave?” I asked.

  “It's the money,” Henry said.

  “But you are getting a good salary (工资),” I answered.

  “I don't mean that,” Henry said. “What do I do in the bank? Well, at the moment all I do is to count money. I find it very depressing (压抑).”

  “What is depressing about counting money?” I asked.

  “You don't understand,” Henry answered. “I enjoy counting my own money, but I hate counting other people's!
