Do you agree or disagree with the following statement: Your job has more
effect on your happiness than your social life does.
观点：同意工作对人的幸福感影响更大。
1) 人是否幸福和经济状况有关。而对大多数人来说，工作是经济来源。一般来说，当人没有经济上的忧虑的时候，人就会比较幸福。
2)
幸福还意味着强烈的成就感。一般来说，工作比社交生活更容易带来成就感或者挫败感。当一个人工作做得好，得到同事和老板认可的时候，他会觉得很幸福，因为觉得自己有用。而当一个人工作做不好，被批评的时候，就会不开心。
3) 工作占据一个人大部分的时间和精力。当你享受工作的时候，你的大部分时间都会很开心。而当你做一份自己讨厌的工作时，你一天都不会开心。
范文：
I tend to believe that one’s job exerts influence on one’s happiness. In
other words, whether you enjoy your job or not determines your happiness. Three
reasons can be used to justify my opinion.
To begin with, a person’s happiness has something to do with his/her
financial conditions and generally speaking, job decides a person’s economic
conditions. So if you have a well-paid job, you are less likely to suffer from
financial cares. Although we are told that happiness has nothing to do with
money, I still believe that without basic necessities, it is next to impossible
for people to be really happy. Take many Chinese youngsters for example. A
majority of young people aging from 18-30 are unhappy nowadays. The reason is
simple: housing prices in nearly every city, large or small, are escalating :
ten years ago, 100,000dollars could buy an apartment in Beijing. Now to buy the
same apartment, you have to pay 500,000dollars. To rent a well-equipped
apartment, you have to pay at least 500dollars, while the average salary in
Beijing is 1000dollars. Rising housing prices, coupled with stagnant wages
plagueyoungsters and their parents. If those youngsters had a job which can
bring them at least 50,000dollars a year, they would have the opportunity to
rent or buy a decent apartment, therefore living a better life.
Second, happiness has a strong correlation with a sense of fulfillment . It
is our job that produces most of our achievement. When we finish our work
flawlessly , we are more likely to be happy, for the perfect work means a strong
capacity that not everybody has. But messing up a work is definitely
frustrating. It is true that social life can also have some impact on our
happiness, but this effect is minimal and will not last for a long time. The
reason is obvious: in our society, people evaluate a person by his/her ability
to perform job-related tasks. A doctor will be excited with a complete recovery
of his/her patient; a teacher feels perfect when his/her students achieve
academic success. Nothing brings a person genuine happiness than his/her job
does.
Last but not least, it is your job that consumes much of your time. In this
highly competitive modern society , to maintain our competitive edge , we have
to do our best. Spending 8 hours on one’s work is normal and most of us actually
spend at least 10 hours on work on a daily basis . If you love your work, then
you are happy to get up early and enjoy the whole day, but if you hate your job,
then the process would be a nightmare and you have to suffer. I consider myself
happy because I choose my job and I enjoy the whole process. Even if I have to
work overtime, I do not complain. But my sister is not so lucky. Despite the
fact that her social life makes her happy, the happiness is transient . When she
goes back to work, she has to suffer.
From the discussion above, I firmly believe that a person’s happiness links
with his/her job. A happy person is a person with a well-paid job, and at the
same time, he/she does the job with passion and enthusiasm .
