The Rich and the Noble 富人与贵族
The fast development of Chinese economy brings great chance for some people to get rich in the 1990s. They seize the chance and gain a lot fortune to become the rich generation and their children are called as the second rich generation, which is believed to be the negative word. The rich people still have a long way to go as noble in spirit.
在20世纪90年代,中国经济的快速发展给一些人带来了致富的好机会。他们抓住机会,获得很多财富,成为了富一代,他们的孩子被称为富二代,富二代这个词却被认为是消极的词。富人在精神上成为贵族之前仍有很长的路要走。
When the media report news about Chinese second rich generation, they are often described to be violent, rude and impolite. These rich kids live the comfortable life, but their parents haven’t educated them well because they are busy with their business. Or these kids are sent to study abroad, they are still the wild children.
当媒体报道关于中国富二代的新闻时,他们常常被认为是暴力,粗鲁和不礼貌的。这些有钱人的孩子过着舒适的生活,但他们的父母因为忙于做生意却没有好好教育他们。这些孩子虽然被送到国外学习,但他们仍然是不受管束的孩子。
Look at the rich people in the developed countries, which are treated as the noble. Though these kids enjoy the great fortune, they live as the ordinary people. They are educated to be polite and respect people since they are small. The most important thing is that they don’t treat themselves as special group.
看看发达国家被称为贵族的富人。这些孩子虽然拥有很多财富,但他们过着普通人的生活,他们从小就受到教育要对人有礼貌,要尊重人。最重要的是,他们不把自己当特殊群体。
The real rich people are noble in spirit, the good manners they own make them special.
真正的富人是在精神方面的高贵,礼貌的行为让他们与众不同。
