　 Recently, a professor of philosophy in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has 　36　 that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually 37　 . One of the exercises he has asked his students to do is keep a 　38　 of every penny they spend for a week. From the 39　 they spend their money, they can see what they really 　40 in life.

　 The professor says our　 41 with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. You 42　 have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some 43 . If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems 44　 than ever before.　 45 it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn’t.

　 Since money is so important to us, we consider those who are 46　 to be very important. The professor　 47 some rich people in researching his book.

　 Question: What is the most　 48　 thing you have discovered about being rich?

　 Answer: The most surprising thing is why people give me so much 　49 . I am nothing. I don’t know much. All I am is rich.

People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it 　50 ? How much money do I need for any given 51　 in my life? In his book, the professor uncovered an important 　52　 in modern society: to bring back the idea that the money is an instrument 　53　 than the end. Money plays an important 　54　 in the material world, but 　 55 money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.
