As far as 1 am concerned saving money best suits me and renders me the greatest enjoyment.Admittedly spending tomorrow"s money as advocated by many plays an active role in our economic life. It can spur people to make more money to enjoy life. And consumerism brought about by this trend can of course drive forward our economy. However there are numerous merits for saving money. First things first saving money is a preparation for a secured life. The best way to secure a safe and sound life and be free from poverty want and anxiety about future is of course in current situation to have a certain amount of money in hand. In our daily life various things unexpected and emergent may fall upon us. In these cases if we have savings we can manage to overcome these crises more easily.

本题虽然没有明确给出标题，但是根据题目要求可以看出，考生需要从“攒钱”还是“花明天的钱”这两种观点中选取一个作为论点。题目中有两个关键点需要注意：一是题目给出社会调查的对象是学生，所以攒钱也好，花明天的钱也好，都是在说学生中的现象，也就是说，题目期待考生给出学生所应持有的态度；二是调查的结果是67％的学生认为攒钱好，说明大多数学生还是支持攒钱的生活方式。当然，考生也可以选择花明天的钱作为论点。
