托福口语范文:购物观和金钱观
Task2
Some people would like to borrow money to do a large purchase. Others will save money until they can afford. Which do you think is a better way?
If there’s something you want to buy, do you prefer saving money yourself to buy it or ask someone to borrow some money to buy it?
Sample response:
For me, I will absolutely choose to do a large purchase when I save enough money. Because firstly, I am the person who likes to make the ends meet by working hard. It makes me feel upset if I overdraw the money or borrow money from others to buy something. In that way , I will live under much pressure, which is a terrible feeling and will influence my quality of life. Besides, borrowing money from friends or relatives will have a bad impact on the relationship between us if I can’t return the money in time. Comparing the large purchase with the good interpersonal relationship, I cherish the latter more.
I would definitely save money myself to buy what I want for the following reasons. First of all, I always think things can go a little awkward between friends when there’s money involved. Take myself as an example, when I was in college I borrowed some money from my roommate to buy a laptop I really needed. At first I thought we were really good friends so it would be no problem as long as I could pay him back in 3 weeks, but after like 4 days, my roommate wanted me to pay him back because he needed to go on a school trip, of course I couldn’t pay him back right away and he got mad at me. Things went pretty awkward since then and I was really embarrassed. So now if there’s something I wanna buy, I would definitely save money myself. Plus, most of my friends are students just like me, we still rely on our parents, so it would be irresponsible to borrow money from our friends just to buy something we want, it’s better to get a part-time job and save some money ourselves.
