  Model Essay(范文):
  Trying to decide how to use your money is always tough. Should you use your money to buy acar or go on a vacation? Both afford lasting pleasure, but of a very different kind. From avacation you get the pleasure of doing wonderful things and of totally relaxing and enjoyingyourself. The memories you bring home with you can give you that same pleasure again everytime you think of them.
  A car also gives you pleasure, every time you drive it. There’s the pleasure of not having todepend on public transportation. You can go places off the beaten track, where publictransportation doesn’t go. There is also the pleasure of being independent. You are able togo anywhere your car can take you, without depending on others.
  A vacation gives you the opportunity to learn new things and meet new and interestingpeople. However, it’s only for a short period of time. A car gives you the same opportunities ona smaller level, but on a more regular basis. With a car, you can go someplace new everyweekend. You can also join a car pool. That way you can share travel expenses with the newpeople you meet.
  Some people might say that spending your money on a vacation instead of on a car is beingimpractical. But nothing is as satisfying as a really good vacation. It’s mentally and physicallyhealthy. It gives you a chance to get away from all that is familiar to you and see the world froma new perspective. It lets you do nothing but play, the way you did when you were a child.Being able to play, even for a short period of time, is absolutely necessary for everyone’smental health. I would choose the vacation, because we all deserve to indulge ourselvessometime.
