Should We Help Others in Need?
The picture illustrates what we are often sorry to see in modem society：an old man is lying on the ground，while the passers-by are all hesitating over whether to offer help or not，fearing that it may incur unwanted trouble．
From my perspective，there are two reasons that may account for this phenomenon：on one hand,it is reported that some people wim evil intentions adopt this method to blackmail those friendly and helpful people．So people now are more risk-conscious and wary of such deceits．On the other hand，due to the increasing pressures from modern life and the well.accepted concept that time is money,people tend to care more about themselves than others，not to mention helping a stranger．
However,as we all know,being accommodating has always been seen as a virtue in Chinese culture．We should stick to and carry on this fine tradition．Of coursc，we should also look out for potential hazards so as not to be deceived．
我们应该帮助有困难的人吗?
这张图片描述了在现代社会我们很遗憾地经常看到的一种现象：一名老人躺在地上，而路人都在犹豫是否提供帮助，因为他们担心这会带来不必要的麻烦。
在我看来，有两个原因能解释这种现象：在一方面，有报道说具有不良意图的一些人用这种办法来敲诈那些友善的、乐于助人的人。所以人们现在更具有风险意识，对这种骗局更加警觉。在另一方面，由于日益增长的现代生活压力和被普遍接受的“时间就是金钱”的观念，人们更关心自己，不太关心别人，更不要提帮助陌生人了。
但是，总所周知，在中国文化中，乐于助人一直被看作是一种美德。我们应该坚持并发扬这一优良传统。当然，我们也应该小心提防潜在的危险，以防被骗。
