On the theme of "benefit" (800-word argumentative essay)
Some people say that corrupt officials are different in the world, and honest officials are all the same. However, in ancient times, honest officials were somewhat different from Hu Zhi's father and son. Once, the emperor asked his son Hu Weiwei if they were honest. Hu Weiwei said: "My father is afraid of being known, and I am afraid of being unknown, so he is far behind him." Hu Zhi and his son are equally honest, but one is afraid of being known and the other is ignorant. Hu Wei thinks he is inferior to his father. I think in the realm, from the "fear of knowing" and "fear of not knowing", we can easily see that Hu Weiwei's is purely for fame and gain, with utilitarian purposes, while Hu's is purely for fame and fortune, because he thinks it is right to do so, and it is abnormal to not do so. There is no utilitarian color in his consciousness, and his is pure morality. Obviously, this is pure morality.

But people often add the wrong weight to the balance of morality and interests and lose their way. Don't you see that "the world is bustling, all for profit; The world is bustling, all for profit "? Many people think that people live in this world just for fame and fortune. With fame and fortune, they get everything they want, so they can live a better life and fully enjoy life. In fact, a person is alive, life is not long, and the road is short. We should think about how to live this life well. Maybe we can't be perfect and noble all our lives, but we must always have the belief of pursuing perfection. This is the right given to us by life. Life is just a few decades Is it a bit vulgar to spend all your efforts or even stop at nothing just for petty gain or a little fame? On the contrary, if we pay more attention to the spirit and the embodiment of our own values, the meaning of living will increase. Although Hu's material life is not rich, his spiritual life must be substantial, what's more, he can pass this spirit on to the next generation of Hu Weiwei? Although Hu Weiwei inherited some changes, after all, the blood on their father and son is clean and upright!

However, compared with the ancients, modern people seem to be much inferior. Not only is it rare to find an "revered" official, but even an "revered" official like Hu Weiwei is hard to find with lanterns. What's more, he is obviously a corrupt official, but he still puts on a very clean appearance. For example, people like Cheng have the loudest voice in fighting corruption and advocating honesty, and they also secretly pay bribes, raise beautiful women and gamble on villas.

Students, please remember the story of Hu Zhi and his son. Maybe it can guide you in your later life.

Cheer for "I'm afraid people don't know"
