     Money can't buy everything, but we need money in our life. If I have a lot of money, I will do a lot 
of things.     
      First, I want to build a nice house for my parents. Now I just live with my grandparents. My  
parents can't afford to build one beautiful house ,because the money my parents make is only used to 
pay for my study and everyday life. I feel sorry for them. So I will give a lot of money to my parents if 
I am very rich.     
     Second, I will give money to the poor children, then they can go to school and they can get 
knowledge (知識(shí)). When they grow up, they can work for the country. Now in the 21st century.
knowledge is the most important thing. Can we say "Knowledge is money"? I think so. So I am sure
 we can have a nice future and a much stronger motherland.     
     At last I will go to the best medical college in the world,and also I will make a lot of medicine for 
different diseases of cancer (癌癥), and then I can help more people.      
      There are many things we will do if we have a lot of money, but now we have to work hard. So let's 
work hard for money, and for our country!

mountains, about the blue sea and many other things. Books are written to tell you about all the wonderful
