　　A
　　I found my father a very hard man to understand when I was young. He was very short and thin and had large blue eyes. I could have loved him as I did my mother，but he seemed to hold us off so that we could not approach him or sit on his knee as love to do. I believe he had a hard life as a child，and I know that he left school at the age of ten and started to work. This made him an unsociable man，unfriendly even to the people closest to him. I never knew him to have a close friend as the other men did. 　　Everything he did had to be precise. If he chopped the sticks for the fire，each stick would be the same length and thickness as all the others，and they would all be stacked without one out of place. His motto was“If a thing is worth doing，it is worth doing well”. In our household his word was law and nobody dared dispute it.
　　He worked hard when in a job and saw to it that we children learned the meaning of work. My mother did not have much pleasure but I do not remember her ever complaining—except on Sunday afternoons when father would take off his clothes and get into bed，leaving her to mend his working clothes while he had his rest. This she disliked very much，for the clothes were dirty from the work he had been doing and she hated handling anything that was not clean.

　　In ancient times wealth was measured and exchanged in things that could be touched：food，tools，and precious metals and stones. Then the barter system was replaced by coins，whih still had real value since they were pieces of rare metal. Coins were followed by fiat money，paper notes that have value only because everyone agrees to accept them.
　　Today electronic monetary systems are gradually being introduced that will transform money into even less tangible forms，reducing it to a series of“bits and bytes”，or units of computerized information，going between machines at the speed of light. Already，electronic fund transfer allows money to be instantly sent and received by different banks，companies，and countries through computers and telecommunications devices.

　　My husband and children think they are very lucky that they are living and that it’s Christmas again. They can’t see that we live on a dirty street in a dirty house among people who aren’t much better. But Johnny and children can’t see this. What a pity！ It is that our neighbours have to make happiness out of all this dirt. I decided that my children must get out of this. The money that we’ve saved isn’t nearly enough.
　　The McGaritys have money but they are so proud. They look down upon the poor. The McGarity girl just yesterday stood out there in the street eating from a bag of candy while a ring of hungry children watched her. I saw those children looking at her and crying in their hearts；and when she couldn’t eat any more she threw the rest down the sewer. Why，is it only because they have money？There is more to happiness than money in the world，isn’t there？
