正方一辯：Thanksforthehost!Goodafternooneveryone.Beingaskedwhethermoneyisthesourceofhappiness,ouransweris“Yes.”Asisknowntous,moneyplaysanessentialroleinourlife,includingthedailylife,studying,working,emotionandsoon.Withmoney,youwillhavewhatyouwant,ofcourseincludinghappiness.Onthecontrary,whenyouarepoor,whenyouarehungry,whattotalkaboutyourhappiness?What’smore,accordingtothedefinitionofscience,wefoundthathappinessisafeelingofpleasurewhenwearesatisfied.Withoutmoney,wecan’tgetwhatwelikeandcan’tdowhatwewantto.Howcanwebehappy?謝謝主持人！大家下午好！被提問到錢是否是幸福之源呢，我方的答案是：是的。眾所周知，錢在我們的生活中很重要，包括日常生活，學(xué)習(xí)，工作，情感等等。有了錢，你可以擁有你想要的，當然包括幸福。相反，當你貧困交加，當你饑餓不已，你拿什么來談幸福？另外，根據(jù)科學(xué)的定義，我們發(fā)現(xiàn)幸福是一種滿足感。沒有錢，我們就不能得到我們所喜歡的和不能做我們想做的。如果這樣，我們怎么會幸福呢？

反方一辯：Well,inyouropinion,thepoorwon’thavehappiness?Asfarasweareconcerned,moneyreallyhastheinfinitestrength.Withmoneywecanbuymanythings,suchasbighouses,beautifulclothes,deliciousfood.Butcanmoneybuyeverything?Obviouslynot!Thingslikeknowledge,precioustime,truelovecanneverbeboughtbymoney.Besides,wecanalsolivehappilywithoutmoney.Therearemanysuchexamples,includingwifewhohassharedherhusban’shardlot,afriendinneedandsoon.

正方二辯：HowwouldthesurvivorsliveintheearthquakeinSichuanifthosewhohavealotofmoneyhadn’tdonatedmoney?Withouttheirmoney,manypeopleinSichuanwouldbehomelessorevenstarvetodeath.Peoplewouldliveinapainfullifeinsteadofhappylife.Somoneyisthesourceofhappiness.既然對方辯友說沒有錢也能過得幸福，那么我想問，如果那些有錢人沒有捐款，那么四川震區(qū)的那些幸存者將會怎么生活呢？沒有得到款錢，他們面臨的將是無家可歸，甚至是活活地餓死。人們是生活在痛苦之中而不是幸福。這就恰好證明我方的觀點：錢是幸福之源。

反方二辯：Indisasterareas,ifwithoutthehelpofreinforcementsandvolunteers,noamountofmoneyisuseless.Itwastheythatbroughtwarmth,hopeandlove.

Happinessisnotanend;itisaprocess..Itisacontinuousprocessofproductiveworkwhichmakesarealcontributiontoothersandmakesyoufeelyouareauseful,worthyperson.Thesearenotobtainedbymoney.在災(zāi)區(qū)中，如果沒有救兵和志愿者的幫助，再多的錢也是沒有的。是他們帶來的溫暖，希望和愛。幸福并不是終點，而是種過程。那是一個持續(xù)地通過為他人奉獻的過程，這樣做也會讓你感到自己是一個有用的且有價值的人。這些是用錢得不到的。

正方三辯：Justnowthedebaterofthenegativehassaidthatmoneycouldn’tbringwarmthandlove,isthisscientific?Ourpartydon’tthinkso.Inreallife,therearemanysuchthings:It’sdifficultforamanwhoisveryuglyandpoortowanttomarryawifewhilearicholdman’smistressiscountless.Whenthereisnomoney,eventhemostbasicoflovewillnot.Isthisstilldoesn’tmeanmoneyisnotthesourceofthehappiness?剛才對方辯友已經(jīng)說了錢不能帶來溫暖和愛，這科學(xué)嗎？我方不這樣認為。在現(xiàn)實生活中，有很多這樣的例子：一個長得又丑又沒錢的男人想娶個老婆都難，然而一個富老頭的二奶卻是無數(shù)個。沒有錢，連最基本的愛都會沒有，又何談幸福呢？這還不能說明錢不是幸福之源嗎？

反方三辯：Obviously,thisisasignofvanity.Isthiskindofloveistrue?Canitbringpeoplehappiness?NO!Insteadofmakingpeoplehappy,thiskindoflovewillletapersonpain,andevendestroythelifetimeofhappiness.Somoneyisnotth
